Re: Change of status for the second time.
You should be able to adjust your status based on your marriage to a citizen. However, you must make sure not to ignore your asylum application... If it was denied, you might be in removal (deportation) proceedings. THe reason it was denied is important. If INS finds fraud or misrepresentation, that can be a reason to deny any OTHER application too, such as by your US citizen spouse. So - I recommend that you see an immigration lawyer at least once to get a good idea of how best to proceed. Good luck.
