Is paternity DNA testing required if you obtain your greencard thru the means of marrying a US citizen?
What are the conditions or other evidences to prove that your marriage is for real. If for example, you married a US citizen woman and she got pregnant. Does that automatically win you a greencard renewal for 10 yrs? Or would the US govt still require a DNA test to prove if the baby is really from the couple.

Yes, DNA will prove you are not trying to pin someone elses child on him. Also, it he is the father, it does not entitle you to a green card. It is also fraudulent to marry for a green card.

you having a child with someone doesn’t proof a marriage between the two.DNA is only necessary to proof whether the child is yours,that’s if you have doubt,also if the wife/girlfriend is requesting child support its excellent idea to do a DNA. child and immigration marriage is different entirely.
If your in united state illegaly do the follow,Your spouse would have to file a petition for you (called an I-130 petition), and once it is approved, you would have to leave the United States and apply for an immigrant visa at a US consulate or embassy in your home country. However, if you been in the United States unlawfully for more than one year, you would be barred from returning to the US for ten years (the bar is three years if you have more than six months of unlawful presence). You may be able to request a waiver of this 10 year bar if you can show extreme hardship to a US citizen or lawful permanent resident spouse or parent.
well if you married to U.S Citizen then i assume there is a marriage certificate issue? if not register your marriage and apply for green card.
if your in the illegally marriage to u.s citizen could not help your status much..
