I have to fill application and check one of the follow:
US citizen
US permanent resident
Foreigncitizen: country - US visa status(F, H, etc)
I think that permanebt resident is a right answer, but I am not sure. What do you think?
 
Hi Guys,

In response to the last post I think the question of status check depends on various needs but most importantly you have to be sure what you want. Your question for instance is very vogue and was unable to clearly state out what you wanted.

People in this forum are very eager to assist but only in clear cut issues that are important and will be beneficial to members of this forum and other matters that are related.

If you rephrase your question to make it more undertandable I bet you will get a solution.

Thanks.

Owu.
 
I am filling colledge application. One of the questions - citizenship. Check a box, which apply. Here is choices as in the application:

1) US citizen
2) US permanent resident
3) Non-US citizen (Country)
4) Dual citizen(Countries)
For international student: Indicate the type of visa you currently hold.

It might be clearer on paper, but I don't know how to put checkboxes and formatting. I called admission office, they reacted as if they never heard about asylee, and said that I probably need student visa first. Now I know, that this is not true, but it just shows that admission office is no help. I hoped, that some people here went to US colleges and might know, how to fill this application.

Sorry, that I did not put it in more detail in original post. I thought that most people encounter these "select-box-that-apply-to-you" applications at some point.

I assumed, that we should always give the same answer, no matter what we apply for, so i did not mention college before
 
It is understandable that an admission office clerk will not know what an asylee is.

Back to you question, I believe that you could and should check the LPR box. Asylees are eligible for financial aid on the same basis as green card holders. Most states also allow them to claim in-state tuition status.
