Once again I will ask.....How will they marry if he does not have Identification?

The OP did not say he didn't have ID, he has a birth certificate. In some states you can get ID and not have to prove you are legal. Also he may have foreign ID (I used foreign ID for my marriage license), maybe he has a Mexican drivers license or could request a passport?

If the OP's fiance left and they file for K-1 or CR-1 depending on his length of overstay he will have a ban (if he is known to have been in the country). If he is approved and does not leave the overstay is generally is excused for the spouse of a US citizen.

Edit: I reread this thread and it appears the OP entered illegally. I would contact an attorney before your fiance leaves. These options I mentioned above may still be open to you. Get Professional advice before leaving!!

thank you Obama....no punishment required for illegal immigration. They said 9/11 was one event we would NEVER forget.

You realize the hijackers didn't EWI, right? And you also realize you're getting way off topic and NOT answering the OP's question?

OP, his birth certificate should be enough for him to leave and prove he is Mexican. But if you do plan to get married, definitely consult an attorney first. You can minimize time apart by not leaving immediately but instead marrying and filing first.

i tried everything to no avail and this is our last resort. he has no id at all so we cannot get married in the us. he only has a birth certificate. i will tell the lawyer everything on weds. i think him leaving and trying to reenter the us with a k-1 is our best option. he can say he's been living with his sister's family which is also the house his daughter lives in. (that's why he came here in the first place. his baby mama walked out on him with a two year old to care for so he came here to work) he has been arrested for drunk and disorderly a few times a long time ago. however he went back to church and stopped drinking for the past three years. there has to be record of him being here in the US even though the last time he was fingerprinted was about 10 yrs ago, i'm sure he is still in that database.

i don't know what to do... every lead turns into a dead end for these people. it is so sad.

I guess I was right and you were wrong....

:rofl:

If by "right" you mean providing false, unsolicited and useless information for no purpose other than to make the OP feel bad, yes. You were so right.

Wow, some bad advice in this thread. The person in question entered without inspection, so they cannot stay and adjust status period. The person in question will tell the truth about his whereabouts when applying for the K-1 visa, and will get a ban. Then the couple will file for a waiver for the illegal presence ban at the K-1 visa interview based on hardship to the USC. This appears to be the OP's plan.

He will have no trouble leaving the US. He will need proper documents to get into Mexico, and a birth certificate should be enough. You can always call Mexican border patrol and ask them. But, he has no other document, so there is really nothing else to do.

I've seen travelers without passports, IDs, etc, obtain a certain document from their consulate that serves as an international photo ID (some sort of 'constancia' I think). It's a sheet of paper that states their name, etc, photo, and that they are free of crime or at least able to travel (I would assume only back to their home country).

However, I have only seen this on flights, US to Honduras.

Agreed, there is some dubious advice here. OP's significant other was definitely in the US (fingerprints), EWI, and plans to return with her help. I feel like that whole situation is not uncommon in Mexico...but that wasn't the question.
