But thanks again for all our feedback, I really do appreciate it, and if anyone else has any further info that might be helpful, please chime in! ^
How does she come to be in the US to begin with? When a foreigner gets married with an American, he/she can apply for a status change (into greencard). After 5 yrs with greencard, your in-law can apply for citizenship.

Depending on how far she is on her greencard application, she may need to rely on her status before getting married. First thing to do is to check what status she has right now.

She certainly does not want to travel into a border state without a legal status.
