[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"OP can I ask why you're not a citizen if you've been married for 12 years? I'm just curious because it seems like it puts you into a situation with this administration"

It is an urban myth that any foreigner here without proper documentation can marry a USA citizen and easily get citizenship. It doesn't work that way. A requirement is that the non-USA citizen entered the USA legally. You're SOL if you are here without a proper visa or if it expired. https://www.boundless.com/immigration-resources/marriage-based-green-cards-explained

And even if they did enter the USA legally, if they are from a country with a big backlog of people trying to come to the USA to join family, they'll wait for a LONG time.

"Over 1.17 million approved I-130 petitions were waiting for visa availability as of mid-2025
Countries with particularly high backlogs include Mexico, India, China, and the Philippines"
