I pay taxes, own a business, can I get a green card?

I overstayed my B-2 visa. I opened a business here in America. We've been in business for 10 years. Last year I payed $10,000 back to the government. Is there any way I can get a business visa, and possibly get a state ID/ driver's license, or green card. We work hard and we've overstayed here 19 years. No felonies, never been arrested.

Answer:
Please leave our country
Just in case you are not a TROLL. You can pack up and leav anytime by end of year. Then do it the right way.
Sure, there is an official, legal way to get a green card. Visit the local immigration office to find out how.
Please go back to where you came from. America is getting kind of full of foreigners.

Thank you for your hard work, but I don't think you will have much luck. There are tons of people who have over stayed there Visas, but unfortunately, you currently considered a criminal by the US. Your children are US citizens if they were born here.

There is work in Congress on this issue right now - but it is highly unlikely that there will be enough votes to get an amnesty type thing like back in the eighties.

Go see an immigration attorney, but it will be a tough go no matter what.
No- but you can marry a US citizen ( a person you love- no fraud please), and change your status that way. Good luck
If it were up to me, you would have a green card.ITS SOO hypocritical, why does this govt. demand illegals register with Selective Services, a recruiting agency for the draft.THAT IS REQUIRED, to go and fight for our country and die for it, yet they don't have the decency to give them legal status? They know illegals are here, they don't care, they want a permanent underclass and they also want them drafted for the war, just in case..Sad

YOU know what? Just keeping doing what your doing, they don't care and why should you?.Just keeping working hard and providing jobs and income for your family, I applaud you.Your OK in my book...!
You in violation of the LAW, I don't know how you got a "legitimate" business without a green card, but you are cordially invited to GET OUT of my Country now, your business will not be missed!!
If you will not leave then you can go to JAIL, GO DIRECTLY TO JAIL, DO NOT PASS GO, DO NOT COLLECT $200.00.
If you overstayed by 19 years, but only been in business for 10 then I'm correct, your business can't be that legit, you need to go back to Brazil whether you want to or not, If you are willing to break the immigration law then there is no LAW that you will not break!
Get out please. We have enoof thiefs in DC we do not need any more. If you overstayed your visa you are a criminal just like any illegal in this nation. Working hard is great move to mexico and work hard. We do not want you hear. Just because you have never been arrested does not make you special. Get out.
I strongly suggest that you consult with a lawyer. He will be in the best position to assist you with your query.**
you may need to talk to an immmigration lawyer. As far as I know, you have been staying here illegally for too long. You may not be able to get any visa due to the bar (if you overstay for more than 1 year). To apply for green card, they would go under background check. Since you have nothing to support that you are legally in the US, it would be diffiult. BTW, if you are not even legal, how did you open a business and pay taxes without SSN? Your $$ may not even be in records in IRS. They may just cash it.
Your an Illegal, adios amigo, your a goner as said in wedo language. LOL LOL LOL
