My spouse and I waited 7 years for our first labor case and at the last minute the employer backed out, not wanting to disclose finances and taxes to the government. In 2000 we started another case that lasted 6 years, guess what? That employer also backed for the same reason. The only positive thing that came out was the grandfathered 245i status. The slave labor wages and being taking advantage of, not so much. When DACA first came out, I was incredulous with the age cap. Unfortunately this time around I stupidly allowed myself to hope, dream and make plans. I should have known better but there it is, I'm heartbroken all over again.
I take it your spouse is not a citizen?
