we don't know if we should apply for my girlfriend to get a green card now or wait to get married first and then apply. I am a naturalized citizen and i know its better to get married first but my question is if she puts in for her papers before we get married and then we decide later to get married while she is still in the process, will there be any reason not to do this or should we just wait till we get married and then apply. Also we are not looking to get married for another 2 years when i finish college.
