Hi
I've been in the US for 6 months (B2 Visa) and applied for a 3 month extension which was recently denied. My girlfriend (USC) and I are planning to get married in December but now i'm not sure if she'll be able to file a i-130 for me because of the visa denial (section 3F of the form). Can anyone answer this??
 
You can always get married, go back to your country, apply for K3 and wait for it to be approved. It's completely safe and legal.

Edit: I just looked at I-130, and section 3F is about deportation or removal. Are you saying you are in removal proceedings already? What does your extension denial letter say? It appears to me that you have overstayed your B2, but overstay is forgiven in case you marry a U.S. citizen. Removal proceedings are a whole different ball game though.

Anyways, it is always better to return to your country and apply for an immigrant visa. I think that it's what I should have done :(

it says that my 'application is denied' and im 'no longer in a valid noimmigrant status and therefore must depart the united states'. Is that removal proceedings or any of the others on Section 3F of the i-130 form??
 
i don't think it is removal proceddings...does it say that you must depart the US within 30 days or smtg like that?.
I know that if you request an extension (B1/B2) you are ok to stay for another 6 months or untill your request is denied, whichever is first.
like the prev post said...you can get married now...and as the spouse of a USC they'll likely to forgive your overstay.
