I am an F1 student who is currently out of status, I applied for a reinstatement of F1 status but was declined as I was suspended for good from the university. It's been 6+ months now since I received a letter from USCIS to leave the country. I have been dating my girlfriend since 2 years now and we are thinking of getting married. How should I proceed?

**** Moving from Student Visa forum to Adjustment of Status from Student/ work etc visa forum ****

Get married asap and follow this Guide: http://www.visajourney.com/content/i130guide2

Your case will be looked at closely, as it sounds like you were told to leave quite a while ago, so deportation proceedings may be underway and getting married will look suspicious.

Since you already have got the letter to leave the country you are on their radar, best option for you would be leave the country - get married and apply for CR1.

No, he should not leave the country. If he leaves now, that would trigger a 3-year (maybe 10-year depending on how long he overstayed) ban. They should get married and file for AOS asap.
