    Default Getting Legal Status After Marriage

    Question from California:

    Hi there, I am looking for somw information about a friend's situation: She had Permanent Resident status granted, but then her family moved to Canada. Having finished school there, she intended to come back to the U.S to live and work, but on arriving realized her Resident card had expired. She then got a 1 year TN visa to be able to work here, but then continued after it expiration date to work and live here using her old SS number. She then met and ultimately ended up marrying a U.S.citizen. How would she go about getting legal status now as the spouse of a U.S citizen?

    She and her husband can apply to adjust her status on the basis of marriage.
