Marrying Permanent Resident Guidelines

Summary

A permanent resident can marry you even three months after their divorce. The marriage must be bona fide and not solely for immigration benefits. In Columbus, Ohio, you can apply for a K-1 visa, get married within 90 days, and then apply for Adjustment of Status. Green card holders can marry at any time, but the new spouse must go through the immigration process, which may take several years. For more specific information, contact the USCIS Ohio Service Center.
