Being out-of-status since May 2009 (for more than 6 months), you can't adjust status unless you are married to a US citizen or protected under 245i.
At this time, you are ineligible for SSN or a work permit.

Hello:
You can have the Schedule A Nurse Petition filed, but it will take time for it to become current. You should strongly consider leaving the U.S. prior to being out of status for more than 180 days so you will not be subject to any bars (assuming you are not under 245(i).
If your have an employer who is willing to petition you for a green card, an immigrant petition can be filed but it will take a long time to wait for the priority date to be current. We suggest you to consult with an immigration attorney.
