    You want to marry a man who is here illegally and committing idenity theft/fraud? There's not much you can do, other than turn him in or tell him to move back to HIS country and you go with him. If you decide to immigrate to his country, please do so legally.

    thats nice of you, He was given the identity by the person whos identity it was. and I would go back to HIS country but I do have an infant to take care of so if you arnt going to help me dont leave me a comment... This is a common situation how do you think most illegal immigrants are working here anyway? Thats right your ignorant. where did your ancestors come from? Maybe you too should go back there. Thanks

    If he entered the U.S. by pretending to be somebody else, and using somebody else's name or Social Security number, he is potentially subject to lifetime ineligibility from reentry in the event that he is deported or leaves the U.S. and attempts to reenter. Given that we know nothing about how he came to the country, and he is unquestionably engaged in illegal activity, he should consider seeking help from an immigration lawyer.

    I am led to believe, that if you marry your boyfriend, you can petition him as Immediate Relative, I-130, however he will be denied and you can apply for a I-601 waiver, however he will have to eventually go back to his country for the Interview, have you had a look on this site, immigrate 2 us there are numerous ladies on here that have had to go this route. hope this helps.

    And that is why he will be denied the I-130 and have to submit the I-601 Hardship waiver.

    If he is using "someone elses name and social security number", he IS pretending to be someone else.

    While he is illegal and working he is deportable if he is found out, is your b/f from Mexico?

    Once you are married if you file I-130 his status is pending.

    If you do get married, check with the local court house to see what ID is necessary for the marraige licence,

    do some research on the I-601 waiver "Google it" and visit the website I mentioned before.
