Need help urgently

Hello this is my first time posting and I really need some help from anyone who can provide the necessary answers. My father filed a petition for me however I recently found out I am ineligible to adjust status and I was also informed that if I leave the country I will be subject to the ten year ban because I am not in status. My question is this: I am planning on getting married to my boyfriend of 6 months who is willing to also assist me in getting a green (marriage will be based on love), However I would like to know if there is an interview process to get the conditional residency and if so what are the type of questions asked. The other thing I would like to know is if the fact that my boyfriend cannot provide 3 years of tax papers (because he just graduated from college and recently got employed) if that will be a problem in showing proof of sponsorship. Any one who can answer my questions please do your answers are greatly appreciated. Thank you

Why are the reasons that you are not eligible to adjust status? Your father is a US citizen or a permanent resident?
If you marry your boyfriend (thinking that he is a US citizen) you should adjust status and that is why my first question.
For marriage based cases to US citizen an interview will be done at the end of the process and you must demostrate that your marriage is bona fide.
If your boyfriend doesn't meet the 125% poverty line then he can get a joint sponsor, and he must fill out the Affidavit of Support anyway. If he can't provide the last 3 years then he must write a letter that indicates why (in this case because he was studying). Check the instructions on the form I-864 Affidavit of Support for more information.
Good luck,

thank you for your fast response

This is my situation. While I was living in my home country my father filed a petition for me priority date was April 31, 2001. However is not a citizen and he never received a notice of any sort showing that he filed.So we were under the assumption that there was no petition filed or in the INS records. In 2002 I entered the US as a visitor then attempted to get a change of status to F1 student. I was denied that but I still remained and attended the school here. In 2004 my father filed a petiton (again) since there was no proof or evidence of the first one filed. Then in 2005 I received two notices that my petitions were approved. One from 2001 and one from 2004. The one for 2004 stated that I was ineligible to adjust status and the one from 2002 is basically useless to me because I do not qualify under section 245i because my father is not a US citizen and even when he becomes one I will no longer be considered a child under the child protection act. So both petitions are useless to me so my next hope is marriage. But I am really concerned that because of these different petitions that I filed with the INS they will scrutinize the marriage heavily.

There is an interview for conditional GC and you will have to go through an interview again to remove that condition after 2 years.

yes, there will be at least 2 interviews on the long road to GC

From the fact that you only ask question about interviews, I can tell that you fear that your future marriage will not last that long. but there will be an interview 2 years after the conditional GC. Good luck.
