Unfortunately, you could not obtain a visa or nonimmigrant status based upon the information provided. Under United States immigration law, you cannot change status if you failed to maintain status. You could not simply apply for another visa abroad, because you have accrued sufficient unlawful presence to trigger a bar to admission. This bar can only be waived in limited circumstances. In addition, work permits are tied to immigration status. You could potentially qualify for DAPA but the program is tried up in federal court litigation.
