Most people believe that commonlaw marriages are automatically created. However, in reality, common-law marriages are not created automatically. Common-law marriages can only be formed by two people who have been together at least two years. Common-law weddings don't need to be legal in all States. In fact, it is possible for a couple to get married in a state where common-law marriages are not recognized.
The United States recognizes a common law spouse if the partners have lived together for two years and were legally married in their country. They may still be eligible for permanent residency even if they don't live together. If they are married and have children, they need to have lived together for at most two years. For some countries this may not be enough, but it's possible.

Congress strengthened the provisions in the act in 1998. Today, innocent spouses may be exempt from joint tax obligations. Pub. L. 105-206.
