My green card has expired and after I renew my green card, I want to apply for U.S. citizenship.  Also my fiancé is illegal. He entered the U.S. with a false visa with someone else's name etc. I am pregnant with his daughter and my due date is September 20, 2008.  Is it possible to apply for a green card for him?  Will I need to file a waiver?  Or does he have to go back to Brazil?  What are my steps?  Thank you.</description><pubDate>Mon, 16 Jun 2008 12:00:00 EST</pubDate><link>http://immigration.lawyers.com/ask-a-lawyer/Inadmissibility,-Waivers-and-Adjustment-of-Status-7193.html?method=rss</link></item><item><title>Ask a Lawyer: How to Replace Lost U.S. Passport And Naturalization Certificate </title><description>I am a United States citizen.

I just received my 10 year residency this year. Even before I received my card, my husband and I have had personality clashes and I seem not to get along with him. If I decide to divorce, will this affect my residency and me being able to stay in the states? I have a steady job and I am very settled here. Your help would be appreciated. Thank you.</description><pubDate>Mon, 02 Jun 2008 12:00:00 EST</pubDate><link>http://immigration.lawyers.com/ask-a-lawyer/Green-Card-Obtained-Through-Marriage,-What-Effect-Will...-7176.html?method=rss</link></item></channel></rss>
