If the marriage is found to be valid it takes a minimum of 6-18 months to obtain permanent residence status (green card). The parties must remain legally married and residing together for three years before the immigrant can apply for US citizenship. Persons who are in the US illegally are not eligible for permanent resident status and citizenship even if they marry a US citizen.

Usually the local police are pretty helpful in helping you process your papers, and getting you a kickstart on becoming a legal resident in the US. They will get you headed in the right direction. Good luck and have a great day :)

Yes, however you would have to wait until your spouse becomes a citizen in order to file for alien resident status.
