I am very enthusiastic about joining the FBI, but I don't think I can.
 

I have always found interest and motivation to work in the FBI, but from what I've read, being under the Dream Act law, you don't meet the requirements.

I am currently studying to get my AA in business and was planning on getting my Bachelor's as well.

Is there anything I can do to join the FBI as a Dreamer?

Probably not, most government jobs require you to be a citizen. I've known some cases where they allow green card holders/visa holders to work, but those are mostly research related projects (think Department of Energy).

No you cannot join. Wait until you're a citizen, then maybe you have a chance. If you don't make it, well nuts to you.

They all require citizenship ... all of them including NASA, JPL, NSA, and even a police officer. I had a passion for all at one point or another and seeing "must be US Citizen" is the biggest disappointment.

Recently I got into cyber security related topics and then realized that you can't get anywhere with that either since every company requires a clearance which requires you to be a citizen and rarely, a permanent resident.

Well, back to reality and finding new interesting subjects.

Good luck hombre

Wait, companies have a requirement for citizenship for cyber security? That's interesting.

Indeed, most jobs require you to be a US citizen. The career I wanted either required "clearance" or "citizenship" and so couldn't really pursue.

Same here... Lockheed martin requires citizenship, and so does many defense contractors :(

If you're currently working on your AA I'd say continue to finish your education then hopefully by the time you graduate you'll have a citizenship.

You can start out by becoming a snitch for FBI in your community.

Yup, the best you can do is be a rat. The king of rats.
