White House pursuing plan to expand immigrant rights - Page 2

Damn, I hope this article is wrong. That would leave so many dreamers that were too old for DACA left out. Even people married to USC with no kids would be left out.

The thing is that they will give more preference to the kids arriving from Central America...

They can get preference. I just hope people like me , who aged out of DACA, are not left out again. My wife (USC) and I always held off on kids because we were being responsible. Damn it, I should have had kids long ago j/k.

Your wife is USC and you won't apply for green card?

Did you copy IamAman's signature questions? Lol

Yea, I was told by several lawyers that I could be left out in Mexico for a period of 3 months to years waiting. They said that they could go ahead and take my case but that they wouldn't recommend me going forward. It seems that for me to get a green card, my lawyers would have to show that my leaving would cause qualifying citizens extreme hardship. The only qualifying citizen is my wife . Since she is young, healthy, and has a good job, lawyers said it would be difficult to make a case showing that my leaving would cause her "extreme" hardship.

Yea, I copied his signature. It is clear and gets to the point.

Your best bet is to get some kind of deferred action and apply for advance parole. You can then apply for a green card within US. That age cap did really screw you ..

That's exactly why I hope Obama's next move expands the DACA benefits to people like me. In such case, I could apply without having to leave the country or any big risk. I'm crossing my fingers his actions won't require being the parent of a USC.

Having a child is your best bet. Even if you get no temporary relief, a US born child increases your odds of getting your green card if you follow the process from Mexico. If you and your wife want children, go for them. Just don't see them as an opportunity...

Previous medical treatment - aka, hospital bills - is not standard communicable disease screening. LatinAmerican immigrants have vaccination rates of 99%; higher than the American population. I talk about STDs, TB,etc. And if one grew up here, then we have vaccination records from this country.

Most adjustment of status applicants are *required* to have a medical examination by a civil surgeon assigned by USCIS in your area. The form is I-693. Though, I read somwhere that refugees are NOT required to have this, oddly enough. Correct me if I'm wrong.
