First of all, what did you wife file on your behalf. Did she file so that you could adjust your status, ie did she file forms I-130, I-485, I-1765 and I-131, or did she only file formI-130.

Since you were not unlawfully in the US for more than 180 days you will be fine. Once your I-130 is approved you will be put on a waiting list for green card, which could be any where btw 1-5 years. Your wife if she has been a permanent resident for 5 years or more could consider applying for citizenship, which would help your case.

the wait for visa numbers in the F2A category is about 2 years (from the filing of the I-130)

are they gonna ask me if work here or no when i go to consulate ?

yes, and you need to honestly answer

yes, and you need to honestly answer

Yes they will ask, and you need to answer honestly as Newacct said, but as long as you were legally allowed to work when you were working and applied for EAD/AP and it was approved during the AOS process you shouldn't have an issue. working without authorization is a different story but based on what you have said so far I cannot tell if you have work authorization currently or not.

will i get green with aos or when i get the usa

[newacct]

will i get green with aos or when i get the usa

You are not going to do AOS. You will do Consular Processing abroad when the wait for visa numbers is over.

As I understand from what you said, you worked illegally for a period of time. There is no ban for illegal work, and thus it should not affect your Consular Processing.

They may or may not ask you about employment in the US. They don't have a standard set of questions that they ask. If they do, just be candid about it.
