Hey pal, do you have anyone in your immediate family that is a citizen or greencard holder? Try to have them sponsor you. That will take many years but at least you will be in the system.
Right now, we have to get congress to pass the dream act. President Obama will probably not get to reform until the 2nd term of his presidency. Its just too polarizing an issue. He will get to it. I know I was making plans to leave America if it didnt pass. Lets face it, Congress cant even get healthcare to pass to help america, what are the chances of helping immigrants?
Dont let this bring you down. You are young. I wasted 10 years just waiting. You do not make the same mistake. Make a plan. If this doesnt happen or that doesnt happen you will do this. I did it. I was waiting to see how Obama was going to tackle immigration or if the dream act pass before I went forward with my life.
