I knew I remembered that name from somewhere. What a whacked situation indeed! :wacko::blink:

and apparently he didn't sense the sarcasm in my response and thinks we're buddies - scary. Actually, I think it's Matako in disguise . . .

Maybe you are right but I read his post with an element of sarcasm in it.... who knows with this guy....

YMMV

You might want to stop calling yourself an illegal alien and use the term "out of status" instead.

An alien that never had status to begin with would not be correct in referring to himself or herself as "out of status". Illegal or unlawfully present would be correct in that case. :)

Not that it matters since based on his posts it sure seems there is nothing real or true here . . . but he says he entered legally on a tourist visa.

Hi,

I'm an illegal alien, don't have a work permit and the US citizen who's supposed to marry and file petition for me is on social security welfare. In this case, if she wants to file petition, who is supposed to pay it? how?

Social security welfare isn't going to cover the fees, she has to. And she also has to be above the 125% poverty line... not sure that is possible with what social security pays out.

Since you are here illegally, you do know that if you've overstayed your visa by a considerable time, you may be forced to return to your home country for 3 or 10 years?

Thanks. I haven't been overstaying for 180 days as of today. If she is unable to be above 125% poverty line, then I have relatives who can come forward and provide a co-sponsorship. If all my relatives turn their backs on me, I will go from door to door to find me a sponsor. I believe it's not gonna be a huge problem.

But I heard once somewhere that if the US citizen receives social security benefit/welfare then the government would consider it and may want to waive the fees. Forgive me if I'm wrong.

It's not a big deal. If she can't come up with the money, then I will most probably sell this dell desktop that I'm using at 12:41 AM in the morning to come up with the cash. But finding a co-sponsor is going to be tricky anyways.

Thanks again for giving a damn about my post. I really need a lot of information but don't have money to consult/take professional help from a lawyer.

Hi Cesna!...it seems you are confusing things..from the threads offered here to read related to your situation. I did not read all of them or their posts...a couple were enough to think, maybe one crucial thing: in my opinion, in Novembre Aussiewhench gave you the right advice of what to do, asap, my question is: why you did not do nothing since then? and here you are 3 months after, and still nothing while the time is running and you put at risk your situation. You seem quite educated to me, but boy you are delaying what's most important, take care of you; you can not take care of your girlfirend if you can not take care of you, that begining with waking up and think more seriously.

I gotta say this thread is mad funny. But being the most ignorant of the forum, what is a troll.? I mean I know what a troll is, but I don't get in in terms of an "illegal" immigrant. Or is it just a put-down in genral with no real reference to an immigrant at all? Or is just a name for "cessna? At any rate, thanks everyone for information on my quesstions. And thanks for the entertainment.

I thought the PC term was "Undocumented"?

Well I'm not generally very PC - I call a spade a spade (and I have quite a few friends who are illegal immigrants so it's not an anti-whatever thing, just the truth).
