I came to the USA (VWP/ESTA) and intended to visit my boyfriend. However to various different circumstances I decided to stay and got married. 

 

Q1: Can I still adjust after an expired I-94? 

Q2: With Q1 in mind, can I still adjust if I married well after the I-94 expired?

 

Is there any further advice you could give?

 

Thankyou in advance.

Is your BF USC? If so, go ahead and file. No problem at all. 

 

Immigration journey is not: fast, for the faint at heart, easy, cheap, for the impatient nor right away. If more than 50% of this applies to you, best get off the bus.

According to responses that I got to a similar question a few days ago (see in this same forum category about traveling) you would be under a risk after you I-94 expires.
