    Default What Other Forms Can I File While Waiting?

    I am a naturalized citizen.

    I recently married a woman who is here illegally and has been working with her banking only social security card.

    We got married in April 2008

    I have already filed the I130 which was received on April 29th 2008.

    Currently USCIS is processing up to Feb 29th 2008

    Can I file forms for her to get a legal working permit? or can she renew her drivers license (she had a drivers license but it expired 2 years ago)

    Generally speaking, somebody who is unlawfully present in the United States after overstaying a visa is not eligible for a work permit.

    Her eligibility for a driver's license varies by state. Check with your state's DMV.

    Your wife needs to also file a I485 adjustment of status form and an I765 work authorization permit.
