Becoming a United States Citizen: The Basics of Naturalization
Many people find the immigration process overall to be confusing, vague, and difficult to understand.
Criminal conduct, with or without a conviction, can result in serious immigration consequences, including deportation. Even permanent residents can face deportation for criminal conduct, but not U.S. Citizens. If you have been arrested and charged with committing a crime, you should seek immigration advice immediately, and before your criminal case begins. It is in your best interests if your criminal defense attorney and your immigration attorney work together on your case.
Things to bear in mind:

New Law helping spouses of US Citizens

This is not an amnesty and applicants will have to qualify for the new process (Parole in Place). What we know so far in terms of qualifying requirements is as follows:
Minor children of the qualifying spouse may also be considered for parole.
BEWARE OF SCAMS. The application process is not yet open and we have to wait for more information from the USCIS before we can file for this benefit.
