Xiomar,
My advice to you is nothing more than this - relax and take it one step at a time. My wife is Panamanian, and I am English. Having now fought the immigration in both countries (one time for my wifes visa for the UK, one time me for my Panama Visa), I can tell you one thing in my experience, immigration departments do not like to be rushed or pressured!
I know this is a heart rending situation, but if you try and rush through a marriage before her visa expires it will just be extra pressure on both of you and I believe, if the process is anything like what we have been through, that marriages on the eve of visa expirations are viewed with some suspicion.
The very best thing you can do is consult a lawyer, and if you really cannot afford it, you need to think of ways to get the money or postpone plans for your wedding until you can afford good legal advice.
These things just always take longer than expected, dont put too much pressure on yourself or let it put pressure on your relationship - if you both set your sights on what you want you will find a way to make it happen and you will be able to be together soon - and legally, which is a great feeling!
Oh yeah, and the best of luck to you both, it will be great!
