Hey for the past few days I have been reading and reading about my case and can find no simple solutions, until I found these forums. I will highly highly appreciate it if anyone can comment about my situation.
I entered the United States legally with my parents, however, because of a situation we got stuck in our visa's expired and it has been over 10 years since that day. We have no criminal background and have even started paying income taxes the past ..2 years. We have also always paid for everything and never had any government aid so that we are not 'leeching' off the system as many like to label illegal immigrants as. My parents have valid drivers licenses and ssn#'s but expired visas, therefore, we are illegal here. I also have a sister who was born In the states and is a citizen but only 7 years old. Now the problem is that I am entering college with a passion for med school, and I can't even take the MCAT until I have obtained legal residence. I am an honors/AP students and I mean in my eyes I see all of my hard work falling apart and do not know what to do. Does anyone please have any suggestions. Anyway out of this..anything at all..?
Once more thank you..it means alot.
