I know someone who was able to do it, but it seems that if he goes back to his home country, he will never be able to enter the U.S.

If you were in the country legally when you entered, you should be able to apply for a green card.
That is what it said when I did it.
Also, if you get a green card, you can enter the US even if you leave the country afterwards.

However, until the green card is issued, you cannot leave the U.S. because you are in the U.S. illegally.

It is illegal and you should not do it.

We can do whatever we want until we get caught ｡

It's more a question of how many more years the corona will last ｡.

It is not illegal to enter the country on a tourist visa and apply for a marriage green card, but
I have heard that it is a practice that the immigration authorities do not like.
I know someone who got a green card that way, and he said it took 8 years.
He said it would have taken a year or two if he had gone the right way, and he wished he hadn't cheated. Of course, he couldn't leave the U.S. until he got his visa.
I guess if you leave, you can't come back in because you overstayed.

My husband has an acquaintance who married a Mexican woman and she overstayed once
and it took her 7 or 8 years to get her visa
last year.

However, since you say you know someone who still has not applied for a green card,
I think it is different from these. I think the rough way to look at it is that even if they did apply, they would probably be rejected.
You are overstayed from the very beginning of your application, and the worst that can happen is deportation. ？
In any case, if you cheat, you will be in a lot of trouble.

Even if you overstay, you will not be deported if you get a commitment to marry an American. Of course, you will have to pay for legal defense, etc. I think the person who took 8 years to get off is a special case. Long time overstayers have gotten green cards within a few years of marriage.
