If you are unable to comprend the information in the guidelines, then you and your USC spouse should talk to a good friend about reading thru the guidelines with you'll before you'll begin this process. The visa process is not a small task to accomplish and you'll will need to be able to deal with the US government in a professional manner. If for some reason you'll are not able to read and comprend these guidelines, then it would probably be in you'll best intrest to contact someone for legal guidance.

Remember you will be dealing with the US govt and everything stated and submitted should be truthfully and valid.

Good Luck on your journey.

The K3 visa is no longer being untilized as of 03/01/2010, therefore donot reference the K3 guidelines.

Yes, you are allowed to stay in the US and change your status to permanent resident without leaving the US. You can do this because a) you entered the country legally even though you became out of status when your work permit expired, and b) you are now married to a US citizen. You do not need a CR-1 or a K-3 visa unless you leave the US. As long as you remain in the US you can do the AOS (Adjustment of Status).

Your wife has to start the process by filing an I-130 petition. This is requesting permission from the Government for a family member to apply to become a permanent resident in the US. At the same time, you will file an I-485 application. This is your request as a spouse of a US citizen to remain in the US as a permanent resident. You can also file for permission to work and to travel while waiting for a decision, although if you are out of status the travel permission may not be useful. If you have more than 180 days out of status in the US, then if you leave the US you will receive an automatic ban on re-entry - either 3 or 10 years.

The Guides have a lot of useful information on how to file the I-130 and the I-485. There are a number of other documents that you will also need to include so it is a very good idea to read over the actual forms themselves and the instructions for those forms. The more you know about this process the less likely you are to make any mistakes that will slow you down or cause you problems.

So, yes, you can file to adjust status in the US, no you don't need a K-3 or a CR-1 unless you leave the US, and read the Guides (follow the link at the top of this page) and the forms and information at the USCIS website ( http://www.uscis.gov) on adjusting status as a family member so you will know what to do. Good luck.
