i'm a u.s citizen but is my fiancee is undocumented, and we plan on getting married within the next weeks in city hall located in new york city.My fiancee is undocumented and we plan to wed soon will there be problem obtaining a marriage license?
Depends on where you live in, but probably not. If you run into a problem in one place, you can always try somewhere else.*





For example, Alabama has a state law that prohibits the issuance of marriage licenses to anyone without a social security number. Some counties enforce it; others do not.





*But why on God's green earth would you trash your life by marrying a criminal? There is nothing good to come out of this, nothing at all.





And ProUSA2 below me is correct. This isn't going to help her become legal any sooner.My fiancee is undocumented and we plan to wed soon will there be problem obtaining a marriage license?
Most places allow you to get married with the paperwork stated (But not all). After the marriage you face 5 years federal prison and/or a $250,000 fine for aiding and abetting. Your fiancee faces deportation and a 10 year to life ban from the US. As there is no way to make your fiancee legal from the US I would advise a very long honeymoon in the country of your fiancee if you can legally live there!
Even if you get married to this illegal criminal alien , what if she's deported next week?? What if she's deported 3 years from now after she has 2 children and you are left to raise them ALONE??





Marriage won't make her legal.





Instead of worrying about the marriage, what's she doing about what REALLY matters, and that's becoming LEGAL???





Do what Amanda says BEFORE you get married to save heartache later!!!!!!





As I said, the most important thing is NOT marriage, it's making her status LEGAL...she's criticizing others, and offering the SAME advice!!!!








THINK before you act!!!! Research this deeply. Don't jump right into something that can ruin your marriage and family.
She鈥檚 going to have to show some ID, most likely they won鈥檛 ask if she is here legally or not.





But, big but, you really need to think about this long and hard, let鈥檚 say in few years something happens and your wife is deported, then what? At best you鈥檒l wait 10 years to have a shot at bringing her back into the states.





What are you going to tell your children, if you have any, when mommy has to go away? Can you afford to travel back and forth between the US and what ever country your fianc茅e is from with your kids in tow?





Or worst yet, you go to jail for harboring and illegal alien, then your children would lose both their mom and dad. So while mom is being deported and you鈥檙e in jail, your kids get a nice trip to foster care.





And all it鈥檒l take is ONE person checking her background, maybe for a job, maybe because she get into a car accident, or any other number of things that could cause someone to check her background.





Call a lawyer and find out what you need to do to bring her in the country legally or you could spend the rest of your life looking over your shoulder wondering if tomorrow your wife might get deported.
My gut feeling is you are going to marry her anyway. You KNOW she's an illegal criminal alien, yet you are trying to marry her any way possible.





If you are smart, you will follow the advice of the people above and think about this before you jump into what could be the biggest mistake of your life.





Make her legal first before you marry her. If she's deported after you are married...then what??





She may have to wait 10 years before being able to reapply for admission to the country.
you are aiding and abetting a criminal and can go to jail. you need to read some of the stories on here of how people thought they were in a good marriage with an illegal and got screwed over, i know she would never do that, yea right!!! report and deport.
In some states, the court requests for SS card and US government issued ID. Check with the court clerk.
Don't listen to anything that those negative haters have to say.People that cant answer you questions shouldn't post anything, hence why its called YAHOO ANSWERS not YAHOO GIVE ME YOUR STUPID OPINION. Anyhow, my husband and I were married In Arkansas and they request any kind of ID, even a fishing license will do. we got married at little bell chapel. And as far as him not being legal once you get married he can be legal very easily get a Good lawyer it will not be easy if he has been deported in the past or if he has any kind of background with drugs alcohol or violence. If he does reconsider marriage.
No there should not be any problems, all you need is sum type of id to get ur marriage license! You're free to marry whoever, even if they're undocumented!





Congrats!!! :o))





Don't listen to Kat M as you can see peole on this site are negative and hateful!! If you're in love go for it!!!





oh %26amp; i was reading others comments saying there is no way to make her legal...that's a lie. Once you are married get a lawyer %26amp; get all the paperwork needed for her to be a permanent resident, its going to cost you but its worth it. The 10 year ban is not true most leave the country for only a few months and are allowed back in. So good luck to ya!
