Hello Anonymous,   We would need more information as you do not state whether you are a U.S. citizen or have U.S. legal permanent residency. Generally if you are a U.S. citizen, and your boyfriend has proof of his legal entry to the U.S., you can file for his green card after your marriage so that he can become a legal permanent resident with the right to live and work permanently in the U.S. You should consult with a local immigration attorney in your city to discuss your particular case and determine the best option for you. Good Luck.   Disclaimer: This information is not, nor is it intended to be legal advice. You should consult with your local immigration lawyer for specific legal advice for your situation.
