The process takes only 3 months if done right. And you don't need to leave the US. Your J-1 visa, however, must not have had a two-year foreign residency requirement.

In the best situation, you would need waivers of both unlawful presence and of the deportation when your priority date becomes available and you are denied by the US Consulate or Embassy upon interview. If you came back to the US illegally after your voluntary departure in 2009, you are in a much worse situation of having incurred the permanent bar under which U.S.C.I.S. will only consider a waiver application beginning 10 years after your deportation in 2016.
