    Current Green card holder, marrying girlfriend overstayed visa.

    Thanks Jacko, just out of curiosity, how is the continuous presence provision screened? Is it a honor system? On the occasions I've entered the US, I've used the GC, but upon returning to the home country I use the passport from the home country. To my knowledge there's no in/out tracking on the...

    Canadian with greencard travelling
