GF (US 26F) and I (UK 24F) want to move in together
I’m 24 and British. My girlfriend is 26 and American. I came to the US to quarantine with her, expecting it to be for 1-2 months max. Obviously that was an optimistic prediction Now, my ESTA (visa waiver program) expires in a couple of weeks. We love each other, want to stay together, and decided to get married since I arrived in the US.
We want to know what the likelihood is of getting a green card approved while on ESTA. After we get married, the plan is that I will stay here and we will start the green card application immediately (though immigration is currently frozen). We know this is not the typical (or preferred) route, and it was never our intention—COVID has made things quite messy.
TL;DR what are the odds of getting a green card while in the US on an ESTA?
