I overstayed my tourist visa and I'm trying to adjust status and get a spousal based green card. Unfortunately he doesn't work as he is ill now and in need of surgery. We can't find a co sponsor. Is there a way that I could get a work permit and start working and use my income?? I'm running out of options here and I'm almost desperate.

I think that your only option is a co sponsor..

Unless you have assets, that's all you can use to sponsor yourself.

Also, by how long have you overstayed? I'm sorry but if you can't find a co-sponsor and your husband is not able to make the 125% of the poverty guideline, you have no path to a green card as intending immigrants cannot sponsor themselves.
