#FirstpostLIVE: Marriage to a US citizen has long been a legal route to permanent residency, but that pathway is now under far closer scrutiny. American immigration attorney Brad Bernstein warns that a wedding certificate alone no longer guarantees a Green Card. Under tighter enforcement during the Trump administration, authorities are focusing less on paperwork and more on whether couples genuinely live together. Cohabitation, Bernstein says, has become a decisive factor, with even legally valid marriages facing questioning if spouses live apart. According to the US Citizenship and Immigration Services, marriages not entered into in good faith can be denied, highlighting a shifting reality for couples seeking permanent residency in the United States. | Firstpost
