    Exclamation Married a U.S. Citizen but Worked Illegally on F1 Status

    Hi everybody, I`m already thankful for your help!

    I`m under a F1 status for 3 years and have been working and paying taxes all this time with my SS# that says "valid for work w/ immigration authorization only".
    Just got married with an American citizen and filling out the forms I`m wondering if I`m gonna have any problems since I`ve been working illegally.
    Is there gonna be any problems if I fill out my SS# and my employment info?
    Should I send my taxes of those 3 years with my application forms for the green card?

    Thank you so much! I`m very concerned about this issue!!!

    Unauthorized employment should not prevent adjustment of status for the immediate relative of a U.S. citizen. See, generally, INA Sec. 245(a), 245(c)(2), and 201(b)(2)(A)(i).
