Legal Question in Immigration Law in Ohio

Hello - please call me at 2129688600.

You've raised a number of issues. I would strongly recommend meeting with an experienced immigration attorney. From what you've listed, there is the potential for you to be able to adjust lawfully to a lawful permanent resident (i.e. green card holder), since you appear to have entered lawfully. However, your case will be subjected to a high degree of scrutiny given the circumstances. Thus, you will want to ensure you have a very good package in order. You don't mention if you were given a NTA (Notice to Appear). If so, then you cannot adjust. But, you potentially can seek administrative closure of your case, based upon the potential for adjustment of status through marriage. You need to be aware that some aspects of immigration only allow you to pursue a course of action one time. Thus, if you don't do a good job, you may be precluded from trying again with a good attorney. Hence, my initial statement to meet with an experienced immigration attorney. Our offices are located in the Greater Cincinnati area, and we handle cases throughout the US and world, with frequent appearances in the immigration courts, especially the one for Ohio in Cleveland.
