How can I get legal papers for an illegal?

Answer by  Loyola (378)

Ways to legalize residence vary according to your relationship with the undocumented alien. As a relative, you may possibly sponsor the individual through special "Family Reunification" programs. As an employer, certain jobs may qualify the individual for a work visa. Preferably, you should contact an immigration assistance organization.

It will be very difficult. One way to do it is for that person to marry a US citizen, however, the person will not automatically be granted a permanent resident visa. The person can also go back to their home country and legally apply for a visa from there.
