I was brought to the U.S. by my father before I could even remember. I'm over 21 now, and my boyfriend of nearly 4 years and I want to get married. We have had two kids together. However, I was never documented. My father says he has permanent residency or citizenship (not entirely sure, but I can find out), but never bothered to get me documented in the many years I lived with him. So, I need to know how to get married to my boyfriend. I've checked online and it says I need a government-issued photo identification. How would I receive one and would it have to be issued by the American government? If It's any help, I'm residing in California currently, but may be moving to Texas soon.

Also, from there, do I simply wait three years before I apply for permanent residency and three years from then, naturalization? Does that sound correct? I'm very lost.
