Asked on Sep 09th, 2017 on Immigration - Louisiana
More details to this question:
my fiancé violated her Daca program due to a very small amount of drugs, is it possible to marry someone who has violated the program??? she is currently being held Louisiana pending hearing/deportation
It is always possible to marry persons who are single and of the right age to marry regardless of whether the person has criminal problems. The question is what you will be able to do for her immigration-wise when you are married, and that may depend upon what kind of drugs were involved and the amount in question. Also whether there was a "conviction" in the criminal court. Immigration law is very tough on drug offenders but does have a waiver provision for a conviction involving marijuana possession of 30 g and less.
