As long as you have proof of lawful entry, he can petition you and you do not have to leave. He has to file an I-130 petition (family petition) in conjunction with an I-485 (adjustment form). The process is about 6 months and you can get a work authorization in 2 months.

It depends on whether he has a criminal record or is just an overstay and what you status is (U.S. citizen, Permanent Resident, etc.) If you are a U.S. citizen you can petition him immediately after you get married. However, he will probably have to return to his home country for a period of time and go through consular processing.

O3 Visa and change of status

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
If you marry a US citizen, there is no bar to adjustment of status for overstay. We have successfully adjusted to permanent residence those marrying US citizens who were overstays in the country for years. The main concern is whether the marriage is bona fide. If you are lucky enough to find a position in which you can be sponsored to remain in the US prior to your divorce becoming final, you can apply for a change of status to the eligible category. If you have sufficient means or a financial sponsor, you may decide to attend schooling in the US under a F-1 change of status. You may also check periodically to see whether nationals or residents of your country are eligible for beneficial programs of the US government, such as Temporary Protected Status (TPS) or Deferred Departure.
