How long will it take for me to get Green Card after marriage? 8 Answers as of January 27, 2012

If you get married to a US citizen and file for adjustment of status on the basis of marriage, assuming it is a bona fide marriage and you can prove that, it usually takes about 4-6 months from filing to get the green card.

*Request for Marriage and Adjustment of Status Application* A marriage proposal and application for adjustment of status must be prepared and presented. Our firm can prepare and send this petition to the USCIS office that initially resolved such requests .. The work permit application is also presented and it usually takes several months to get cast. The last interview for the Green Card will be around one year after the filing of the petition. There are a myriad of different ways, exhibitions and information that needs to be completed.

If you do, you will just complicate your own case. I

It takes about 6 months.

Permanent Residency card through marriage is typically about 4 months if you file as one step. Depends on what District office the interview will be conducted at. If adjustment is pending with your EB-3 stage. at the interview you will be required to pick one.

If your wife files an application for you, then normally takes 3-8 months depending upon which local office you have your interview at.

It will take approximately 3 months if you apply for adjustment of status as spouse of a U.S. citizen.

It only takes about 3 to 4 months from start to finish. That is much quicker than doing through the EB3 category.
