    Default Might Be Out of Status Before Marriage

    My EAD might expires before My US fiancé and I can get married, what should I do ?
    The reason why we cannot get married yet is because he is still not divorced! He has been separated for 4 years now and the divorce papers were filed earlier this year and the divorce is still not final!
    We could go back to my home country but we really do not have the money to do so.
    What should I do? The divorce final papers should be right around the corner based on the timeframe they gave us .
    I failed to mention that I came to the US on a work visa 7 years ago.
    Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

    It's up to you to decide whether or not you want to assume the risk of overstaying, including the possibility of being picked up and deported prior to the completion of your fiancé's divorce or your filing to adjust your status. If it were me, I would either find a way to remain in lawful status or return to my nation of origin, but I'm not you and I don't have the full facts of your case. You should consider consulting an immigration lawyer with the details.
