I am on F-1 and will soon be marrying a person who has a green card. Once I get married, will that impact my F-1 status?

Answer

Getting married to a person with a green card would have no direct impact on one’s F-1 status. However, if applying for certain immigration benefits, such as an F-1 visa at a consulate, it is possible this could create problems related to immigrant intent. (01.Apr.2021)
