Does anyone here have a significant other and is thinking about trying the marriage route? I’m scared because I have seen people still getting deported. I have been with my boyfriend for over a year, we live together. We are willing to do it but there are a lot of questions I have 🫠 like do I have the publicize it? I don’t really want to because I want to also have a “real” wedding party when we are financially ready to. We also don’t want to tell my boyfriend’s family because they are republican/racist. Would that affect applying? Is it worth it to even do this? Or should we wait?
