That isn't exactly true. My brother married an american and lived in Oregon right after they were married. He had to wait for his green card. Now I understand that every state is different. In Oregon he was told that the process would take more than a year due to a backlog. Within that year they moved to Montana and his application was put through in a matter of weeks. During that time he could not legally work in the US, which was frustrating for a young married couple. He ended up getting odd jobs for cash such as farm and construction work.
