In some situations you may be able to apply immediately for your adjustment of status.
A U.S. citizen can marry a tourist or Visa Waiver Program (VWP) visitor and apply for the Adjustment of Status – Green Card from within the US. If you entered the U.S. as a visitor your intention was to return home. If you change your intention, and now want to get married the Immigration Officer may consider you are committing fraud.
If you qualify to apply for your adjustment, you will want to have the correct supporting documents and be prepared during the marriage interview to explain it and show supporting documents.
