Green card marriage : ウィキペディア英語版 | Green card marriage Green card marriage is a neologism that refers to the marriage of convenience between a legal resident of the United States of America and a person who would be ineligible for residency but for being married to the resident. ==Description==
The term derives from the availability of permanent resident documents ("Green cards") for spouses of legal residents in the United States, where marriage is one of the fastest and surest ways to obtain legal residence. Marriages, if legitimate, entitle the spouse to live and work in the United States, as in most other countries. In the United States, 2.3 million marriage visas were approved from 1998 through 2007, representing 25% of all green cards in 2007. Even if the non-resident spouse was previously an illegal immigrant, marriage entitles the spouse to residency, generally without the waiting time required for persons caught being in the United States illegally.〔
