Legal Question in Immigration Law in Virginia
green card
Sb came to US on J1 visa in 2001. visa expired in 2002. Few months later (after visa expired) sb sponsored her for green card, and her layer says her case is ok. But she has been out of status. Is this possible she will ever receive green card? Or her lawyer is cheating?

Re: green card
Not if she's been out of status since 2002 and no qualified person has sponsored her for lawful permanent residency (green card)since then. (Sb cannot sponsor herself for this particular immigration status.)
