    Default Illegal Immigrant - Pregant & Fearing Deportation

    You really should consult an immigration lawyer about your situation, to see if there is a way to adjust your status without your having to leave the country or face a period of exclusion.

    I am in a similar situation and my lawyer told me that there is a special exemption for SPOUSES ONLY who have been working illegally. He told me this should not hinder the green card process.
