My wife came into this country from Canda in 2000 (pre 9/11). She was checked at the border (she was very ill and taken from college in Canada by her relatives that live here). I married her thinking that I can I could simply get her legalized.. attorney said no.. because technically, they screwed up at the border and shouldn't have allowed her in without a visa... now she stands the risk of a 10 year ban...? I can't move to Canada.. own my own business here and we have a child on the way? Anyone know any way around this without her having to go home and possibly being risked from being banned?
Answer:
If you are a citizen of the US, let her apply for her citizenship. Did she ever get a green card? ~
Check with an immigration (better) attorney.
