First of all he is going to have a hard time mainly because he is of a Muslim background. They will give him the run around unless he has a good reason for coming to America. You can look at the website as much as you want. They will not tell you the whole process that they will try to put him through. I have been working in Germany at the airport and had to deal with people who wanted to come to America for 5 years and I also know what they do at the American Embassy. You need to get someone who will sponsor him or that are willing to watch over him and have a place that he will stay. May I add; You and that person will under surveillance for a long time. They will also probably make a background check on you. Hope I was able to help you.

Your friend needs to apply and get a US tourist visa from the US Embassy in Nigeria. Then buy the roundtrip ticket to the US.

Hehehe.....You aren't serious are you?  Just for $hits and giggles, you need to send her back to Mexico and have her come in legally with a visa.....Thats just for starters....

Did your friend go to the US Consulate there and ask on the procedures of a visiting Visa?\nHave you contacted Immigration and ask the same questions?\nIf both of you have not done this yet;\nI suggest you stop asking people whom know little or next to none on the issue and contact those two authorities.

First, DO NOT become illegal.\nGenerally you can arrange appropriate visas and permissions from Ambassady of the country you wish to go.\nDo it beforehand and they will guide you through the process.

Before spending any money and risk to loose it, you should refer your friend to the US Immigartion services where he/she could get information and help regarding the refugee status.\n\nhttp://www.usimmigrationsupport.org/contact.html\n\nThe main office seems to be located in New York.  You can try and send an e-mail to their attention, explain the situtation and get the right information (info@usimmigrationsupport.org\n)\n\nBest of luck, Jo

The easiest way is to marry an American.  They can help you obtain a Temporary Resident Visa and then after a few years, if you qualify, you can obtain Permanent Residency.\nNowadays, it is really dificult to obtain Visas for this country.

From where I'm from people have to come to the US to secure a better future for themselves.  This was the case for my mother.  She had me in Mexico and had a pretty good job and everything else she needed, but she knew she would never move up.  She wanted better so when she was about 22 or 23 she left everything behind except for me, a little bit of money,  and the clothes on her back and crossed into the United States illegally.  Now 20 years later.  We have a home thats paid for she started a restaurant after working hard for 10 years and she became a US citizen and learned english.  When we got here we barely had very little money and no place to stay at to begin with.  No family no nothing.  So if my mom managed so can you.  Especially since you dont have children.  If you want to do it it can be done.  Get your education first of all and dont worry about marrying too soon.

go here,,, uscis.gov,, it has  alot of answers to this and many other questions,

Interesting question.  I have to say firstly that the fine people who answer the BCIS hotline aren't always as knowledgeable as you might think.  When I called them about my wife immigration stuff I would often call and ask the same question 2-3-4 times till I could get a constant answer.\n\nCheck out the BCIS website.  I thought there were special rules inplace for people already here (legally or not) and working such that they wouldn't have to leave the country first...maybe that was only a california thing?\n\nI 'think' you can petition for him while he's here and he can stay while the thing get sorted out.\n\nI am wanting to think there might be a job-store/day-labor place locally to you that might have some tips.  I would think the govt would be as accomodating as can be for someone who wants to work here legally and pay taxes and all that stuff....\n\ngood luck.
