Hi,
I'd like to attend a four-year college this spring. Is there any way that I can become eligible for federal aid while my citizenship is pending? Right now, my family is waiting for a second biometrics, then interviews...and that's as far as I know. I don't even know how long the physical wait is for an actual green card--in a few words, it's quite agonizing. I'd like to be in college like everyone else my age and it's frustrating that my parents won't tell me anything about what is going on with our situation.
My mom tells me to just wait, BUT I CANT. I need to know, given the information above, what my chances are of being eligible for federal aid in light of my situation (that is, residency pending--am I even close to having this completed?!), and if not, then how long is the wait for the card? I'd like to be at a four year college by spring semester, which is in three months.
Help?
Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
