Hello friends, I need an advise from you. I am planning to apply for the Department of Homeland Security (I am a USC), but my spouse is still undocumented. We are both living in the USA. Would I put my spouse at risk?

He is already at risk. Find an attorney for your case, since we dont know your situation and your spouse's immigration history.

By harboring or aiding an illegal immigrant, yes. You also put yourself at risk by doing so.

When/with whom did she get to the US and how old is she?

exactly what level of 'undocumented' is your spouse?

There's a world of difference between entering without inspection vs overstay of a valid visa.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !

My first thought is that it would get you bonus points.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Security and background check will uncover this fact. Since it is a government job, some type of background check will be done. Different level for different type of jobs.

ANY job with DHS WILL require some type of background check. Count on this. They WILL want to know about your spouse. It is to your best interests to get your husband some type of legal status before you apply. Even working for TSA as a baggage handler requires you providing detail information. Remember this is the Department of Homeland SECURITY and having a spouse who is "unknown" is a big no-no and could put him in jeopardy.
