You appear to have two choices at this time – either registering for deferred action for childhood arrivals (DACA) or having your husband apply for you on form I-130 and when approved, filing for an I-601A provisional waiver application of the 10 year bar for remaining illegally in the States for over one year and if approved, consular processing the rest of your case at the American consulate or embassy in your country of birth. These two options were the signature pieces of the Obama administration's first term in office. Besides the evidence of your high school degree, DACA requires that the individual be under the age of 31 on the date of enactment, June 15, 2012, have entered the US by June 15, 2007, and be clear of any serious crimes, significant misdemeanors, or three other misdemeanors, etc. Qualifications for an I-601A provisional waiver are that you prove that your husband would suffer extreme hardship if the waiver was not granted, and that the only reason for your non-ability to immigrate is your illegal stay in the States for one year by which you have incurred a 10 year bar on reentry.

I suspect that USCIS has already generated all of the receipts that met the selection for FY 2014, but cannot be sure since the agency has not made an announcement to that effect. I note that we have not received any more receipts since the beginning of May and that the agency has begun to send back rejected petitions.
