I've reached a point in my life where I am really worried about my future.. I have a good job, car, USC fiancee, live comfortably... but then I start thinking about reality, the "what if's".
As everyone here (or at least almost everyone), I would like to eventually become a USC, even a PR. If I am approved for renewal of my EAD, that gives me 3 more years to do.... what?
Of course I would like to and WILL make the best of it, and I want to travel with AP and eventually get married/get a green card. (Plan A)
What if I can't travel with AP? What if things dont work out with my fiancee and me? What if i travel with AP, get married, but problems come up when applying for green card?

My plan B would be to apply for a Canadian Visa (permanent stay) but I've been researching and it could go either way, 50/50.

Plan C would be to go back to my home country, Mexico.. but that would ONLY be once there is NO chance of me fixing my status in the USA. I would have to make the best of it..
I really dont want to go to Mexico, I have been living in the USA ALL my life, grew up here.. I am an American. Me moving to Mexico would be the same as me moving to any Spanish-speaking country in the world.. I would be a stranger to it.

This is in my mind constantly.. living day to day without knowing what will happen to me if DACA stops, cant ever fix status, etc.. I DO NOT want to live the rest of my life like I am now.. I know DACA is am amazing opportunity for us all and I am very thankful for it, but I couldnt live my life renewing DACA over and over.. (granted that it continues).
If there was every a chance for DREAMERS to join the military, I would be the first one in line. I never thought I would consider joining the military.. but to "become an American" I would proudly do it..

Sigh...
