No. A gay "marriage" in Massachusetts has no bearing for federal purposes and immigration is federally regulated.

NO. Marriage is the legal union of a man and a woman. Nothing else qualifies.

Maybe in Massachusetts. But be careful the INS will be all over you if they suspect that you are only get married to stay in the country. Good Luck.

Only if you live in a State that supports gay marriage. Call & ask your local court clerk.
