I came to the united states as a child when I was 4 years old. Since then I have lived in the United States till the age of 18. After my `8th birthday i returned to my home country. However, my dad is still in the united states waiting for amnesty (if it happens). I have just starting to learn that the drea, act is picking up momentum, and that it actually might be passed in the senate and congress as a stand alone bill. The terms are simple:

1. continuous presence in the united states for a min. time of 5 years

2. serve 2 years in the military or 2 years of college.

3. not be over 35 years old.

Since the bill is already written I am wondering if there is anyway that I can still be apart of the dream act. I feel its ridiculous that the united states would reject me on account of not being continuously in the united states. However, I never have been arrested, attended a private high school, and am currently attending a private university....and my dads papers for a greencard are 2/3 of the way done but the other 1/3 cant be completed because he overstayed and i245 has since expired. Is there anyway that my status can be revoked if the dream act is passed, and for me to get temporary residency? I need just 1 sentence that can will allow me to be qualified.
