现在正在约会一位美国女孩,虽然对方想结婚,而且好像蛮听话的,我还是不太想,觉得她年龄小了点,而且学习中文进步不够大。

我想请教的问题是:假如,经济转差,我被裁员。需要求她救我,被迫结婚,是否可以立即保持在美国合法居留身份?- Technically you are out of status once you are fired, although the period before your current I-94 expiration does not count towards 3/10-yr bar.  On the other hand, once you are married to a US citizen you're qualified to be granted green card, regardless how long you have been out of status, whether or not subject to 3/10 yr bar.

请大家指点一下,非常感谢啊!
