Hi,
If your wife entered the U.S. legally (even if her authorized stay has expired), she is likely to be able to adjust status in the U.S.
You can call our law firm at 212-268-3580 during business hours or email [email protected] for guidance.
In order to get a "green card" for your wife you must file the I-130 which is your petition for her and the I-485 which is the adjustment of her status. There are a number of other documents that must be filed with the I-485 and you will have to attend an interview. Your wife does not need to leave the U.S. You'll need to check the rules in Florida regarding what one needs for a Driver's License as many states now require that the person be a legal immigrant.
