If you entered the country legally and are married to a US citizen, your wife can petition for you on form I-130 and you can apply for adjustment of status concurrently on form I-485. If you entered the country illegally and are married to a US citizen, your wife can still petition for you on form I-130 but you will need to apply for a provisional waiver on form I-601A (for unlawful presence in the US of 6 months or more) and get it approved before you can apply for an immigrant visa at the US consulate in your home country. If you were under 31 years of age on June 15, 2012 and have graduated from high school or are currently enrolled in school, you may qualify for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals which would grant you a temporary work permit that you could renew every 2 years. The application is filed on form I-821D.

Can I petition for my dad if I am not married?

You must be 21 to petition for your father and a US citizen. It sounds like there is some confusion or your attorney is committing fraud. I recommend you speak with another attorney immediately. They may not tell you what you want to hear but it is better than spending a lot of money if the person is going to mislead you.

What do I need to do to reenter the US by land?

*Application to Apply for Non abandonment of Residency* When a Lawful Permanent Resident has been outside the U.S. for more than one year, they can no longer reenter on their Lawful Permanent Resident Card. In this case, it would be necessary for the application for Non abandonment of Residency to be filed. We would have to prepare a legal brief along with declarations, affidavits, medical reports, and all other supporting evidence to show why the resident did not return to the U.S. within the allotted year. The more supporting documents we have showing the critical reasons the resident did not return to the U.S., the better chances of success. Once the application is prepared and filed, it usually takes between one and three months to get a decision.
