What is the legal process? How will this affect his status? Can he still apply for residency?

Well it seems you've made a mistake. Tsk. Just divorce him. And Hell no can he reapply for residency. Heck if all of them started thinking like that, then people would just be getting married just to obtain legal status.

Are you trying to bring him to visit or permanently ?\n\nYou have 3 options if you want to bring him permanently:\n\n1) He can apply under the skilled worker category (he gets points for having you there)\n2) you can sponsor him under the family immigration scheme.\n3) find him a job and he can get a work visa, in time he can apply for permanent residency.\n\nFirst 2 options will take 1-2 years. The last one is much faster.\n\nP.S. Tourist visas are rejected only if they suspect the person will try to remain illegally in Canada. Rejection rates are somewhere around 20-30% not 99!

if he is at the age of stuyding he can apply to a school and get a student visa. then when he comes he starts to work at the same time. of if you are from usa he can apply for a green card. oooooooor you can marry him. so he will become the citizen of your country.

he needs to file his i-130 with ins, after he gets the approval he can apply for his working permit, after that he needs to file his i-485 (adjustment of status) than he goes to his interview and than he gets his green card. the whole process will take up to one year and he don't have to leave the states

If he has a green card, he is the resident of the U.S. (even though if only the temporary one (2-year green card)). If he wants to keep the Korean citizenship, then he should go to the military. If, however, he wants to become an American citizen, he can ignore the letter and nothing will happen to him. If he already has the green card, he doesn't have to marry a citizen in order to receive his citizenship. 2-year temporary green card is getting replaced with a permanent 10-year green card; and after you have stayed in the U.S. for 5 years like this, you apply for the citizenship and you receive it. \n\nHere what I think is really going on:\nAre you an American citizen?\nHave you ever seen his green card? Do you know how the green cards look like?\nHave you ever seen the "military" letter that he has received?\n\nMy personal opinion is that he has no green card and is manipulating you into the marriage in order to get one (!)\nI might be wrong, but in any case: be careful.

Unless he has been in trouble most likely not. If he has its 50/50.\nDid he work all the time. How much debt, Does he have children, does he own anything,  his character will count to some degree ect. It all adds up to points for his reconsideration form. And he needs to face it and take care of it asap. See a lawyer even a free one from Legal Aid.  Avoiding it could hurt him.

You need to go through a good immigration attorney.  The process is complex, and requirements are stringent.

If he is overseas, you may have to apply using an I-130 (Petition for relative) .Once he is here he'll have to Adjust his status based on marriage to a US citizen! These forms are the last I knew of!\nI-485( Application to register permanent residence or adjust status) ,(2) Forms G-325A ( Biographic information), Form 9003(IRS info) Form I-693 ( Medical examination of aliens seeking adjustment of status), Form I-130( Petition for Alien Relative), Copy of his birth certificate, divorce decree or certificate of death if applicable to previous marriage, Copy of your birth certificate, Copy of his passport info page, immunization records, I- 756 (Employment authorization document), Copy of his US Visa, Copy of original Marriage license from court ( NOT MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE), I-864 ( Affidavit of support) . There is additional info needed as instructed on the forms! This is the green card package based on marriage to a US citizen! Please check the USBCIS (INS) website for any recent changes!   Good Luck!!

It will be very difficult for him to immigrate to the US unless he applies to do a master´s degree there and go on a student visa.  Then he could get a work permit.

The answer is you can lose your status. A permanet resident (not a citizen) can lose their opportunity to stay here(America) if they break a variety of laws. There are 15 violations listed of the paperwork... A simple DUI IS GROUNDS, not being able to support yourself......It's a very interesting ambigous law....

Consult a good immigration lawyer if an application is made for a visa it will likely end in a deportation hearing and possible deportation. If this happens there will be no way to come back since there is a record of the deportation. It would be better to have a lawyer apply for landed immigrant status due to circumstances and on humanitarian grounds.

If he married you, and you are a US citizen, then he can get a green card and stay legally.  I'm confused why he doesn't want to do that?\nHe does not have to apply for citizenship.  With your marriage he becomes a "Permanent Resident" as long as he applies, and YOU sponsor him on the application.  He stays  a citizen of his original country, and can travel back and forth as much as he wants.  He will also be able to work legally at any US company.\nThe process can be long, and you have to go to an interview with immigration services, and show in good faith that your marriage is real.  There are fees of a few hundred dollars.\nAgain, you have to ask him why does he not want that?\n\nedit; lsacha1 is correct, HOW he originally came here makes a big difference.  Consult an immigration attorney before taking any steps, and before either of you travels outside the country.\n\nedit; then tell him it's something you want to do for him.  What if he gets deported, how would he feel then?  Once that is on his record, there's no coming back.\n\nhttp://www.uscis.gov

I second using a more reliable source. Immigration is very complex law. \n\nThat said, if you're a bona-fide US citizen and marry an illegal alien (whose only infraction of law is illegal presence and/or illegal employment, and there are NO other criminal or moral problems) -- your spouse may be able file to adjust status on the grounds of being an immediate relative of a US citizen. I'm not sure about the child though. Once you file such a petition, your spouse is safe from being deported, until the petition is decided. If approved, your spouse becomes a permanent resident, and after 3 years, can apply for citizenship. If not, spouse needs to leave the country or file an appeal to fight the decision.\n\nNow the need for a lawyer: this can multiple years, and even a small mistake can jepordize the entire process -- and you'll have a really badly separated family. \n\nSo speak to a lawyer. If that's too expensive an option, large public libraries offer invite law professionals who consult for lower cost or free. \n\nI'm not a lawyer; above is only a slightly informed person's attempt to answer.

No he is not. And if he has overstayed his visa he should be reported to the nearest immigration centre with a view to immediate deportation.
