It's not cheap. They also want to know the ins and outs of a ducks a**. I was lucky that my wife and i have been married for a few years so it made it easier. If you have only recently married an American Citizen it is harder and more scrutiny.
The reason I asked is because some people make it sound as if the illegals should just wait in line and pay their dues too, when in reality, they almost certainly would never be able to come with the money to make it happen. So it's not a realistic statement to make really. You need to have money to get here legally.
How long have you been here now? And what part of Great Britain are you from?

What about the thousands and thousands paid to coyotes? Here is just one example of a woman paying $8,000 to come here illegally. Then another $1,200 for "documents". That would be enough $$ to come here legally. She is only one example of many. She had the money but refused to do it the right way.

That is not our problem.
It is not the fault of the USA that Mexico is a broken scrap heap of a nation. Their basic culture sucks to be blunt.
I have been coming to and fro for the last 6 years but got my residency recently. I come from London and still have a home there so we spend time in the USA and the UK. If anyone wants to immigrate to America you should "pay your dues". Being poor is not a reason to ignore the immigration laws. Maybe if they say "no fee" if you are poor would start the immigration stampede for all poor countries. If you go to buy something they don't say you can have it free because you can't afford it.

And that's the common theme I'm finding in most opinions here. If that's the root of an opinion there's obviously not much that can change it. It's much easier to say that it's not our problem. Until Pearl Harbor got bombed, we used that same line, unfortunately.

And hasn't it become our problem? Don't you think that no matter what we do, the poor will always be there because of the lack of opportunity for them in Mexico? It seems to me that it will always be our problem, at least to some extent. Even if we'd rather wash our hands of it.

No matter how anyone spins it, in the final analysis it is Mexico's problem to solve- not ours. Surely we have learned something from our disastrous attempt at 'nation building' in Iraq. Things would be no different in Mexico if we were to become involved there. We have literally handed out billions in foreign aid over the decades to Mexico and have nothing to show for it. It is time for Mexico to grow up. The party has to end and the gravy train has to come to a halt. They need to take responsibility for their own poor people. If they choose to remain a Third World country mired in corruption, all I can say is that we are not the only country on the earth with less than ideal neighbors. Others manage and so will we.

Latin America not just Mexoco is a sewer of corruption . USA can pour all the money it wants and nothing will change.
Only change will be the safe deposit box's of the ruling elite will get that much bigger .
USA will one day go down in history as the country that financially destroyed itself pouring money into corrupt countries while it's own citizens suffered.
We have states,area's in America that are in dire poverty , people actually hungry ,no shelter,etc.
What about FOR ONCE just for once giving our own citizen's priority?
Money does not grow on tree's so don't say we can do both because we can not. We are in financial trouble .
It is high time someone helps Americas poor . USA does not owe Latin America nor any country a thing not a penny and again if it sends money most is going to safe deposit boxes.
I don't understand what Pearl Harbor has to do with sending MORE money in aid to Mexico.

Exactly we have POURED money and aid into Mexico over last 2 decades and imagine 10 cents if that out of every $100,000 made it to those who needed aid.
I am being kind knowing Mexico's elite saying that 10 cents made it to the needy .
