How do I go about fixing my status if I entered the U.S. illegally but now married to a citizen have three children?

Your question requires an attorney consultation. It is not a simple question that can be answered on this type of forum. There are many factors that would need to be considered and evaluated. If you entered the U.S. illegally, you most likely will have to go through what is known as consular processing in your home country. In addition, your misdemeanor, depending on exactly what the charges were, may make you inadmissible from entering the U.S. and being able to obtain a green card. I strongly suggest that you contact an experienced immigration attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your situation. (S)he would then be in a better position to analyze your case and advise you of your options.

Can I apply now for a change of status if I am getting a job in a few months?

Brian D Lerner
Answered by attorney Brian D Lerner (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Law Offices of Brian D. Lerner
H-1B's can start to be filed in April, but the position will not be available to start work until October. Thus, based on your information, it is likely you will have to leave. *H-1B Specialty Occupation Visa. You qualify for what is known as the H-1B Specialty Occupation Visa. You will need to have an employer agree to sponsor you for a job. It does not need to be a full-time position, but it should be related to your degree. Our firm can do the entire petition. Once we begin processing and get it filed, it normally takes about six to nine months to get the approval. Please note that H-1B's are very limited and are only available for small periods of time during the year. Therefore, Premium Processing discussed next should be used.

Is there any chance to get a green card for being here more than 10 years?

Being here for 10 years, by itself, is not a grounds for acquiring a green card. However, there may be other ways to qualify, depending on your background, education, etc. I suggest that you contact an experienced immigration attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your situation. (S)he would then be in a better position to analyze your case and advise you of your options.
