Canadian in trouble

[marcello]

Hi everybody,
ok this is my problem: I am canadian and I came to USA in 2006, I got married here with an american woman and I got my Green card in 2007. Before i got my green card, I was looking for a job to help my wife. I thought as a canadian, Im allowed to work here. A company hired me even though I told them Im canadian and I still dont have the SSN nor the work permit. Now Im worried that the immigration will find out. Am I in trouble? is there any way I can fix this problem?
Please help me
Thank you

If you're married to a US citizen, the illegal employment is forgiven. It is important that you do NOT attempt to conceal it, and that you pay taxes on your income.

The GC is your work permit, now go get a social security number, and start paying taxes. Everything will be ok.

Nothing to conceal if he already had an interview, which I must assume he did because he said he already got his LPR. I would have worried about it before, not after the situation. Actually I wouldn't have worried period!
