Can I apply for status change?

Answered by attorney David Troy Cox
Immigration lawyer at CoxEsq, PC
If you get married, he can petition for you, but you will need a waiver of the unlawful presence bar, which you can now apply for from within the US.  The altercation you describe won't change anything.

What can we do to fix his papers?

Answered by attorney Phong Thanh Tran (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Law Office of Pho Ethan Tran, PLLC
The first thing that you need to do is to get married in Mexico. After you have been married, you can file and I-130 relative petition on his behalf. If the petition is approved, the file will be transferred to the National Visa Center where he will be required to file his immigrant visa application and submit his civil documents. As long as he did not reenter the US illegally after returning to Mexico last year, he should be eligible to apply for a waiver of the 10-year bar for having accumulated more than 1 year of unlawful presence in the US.

Although it seems like a very small violation of status, perhaps the best policy is to put it down and explain exactly what happened in your application.
