I recieved a traffic ticket for driving with an out of state license in Georgia. Georgia laws require you change your out of state license to Georgia license within 30 days. I had to appear in the court. I went to the court the judge told me that I need to go to jail and will only be finger printed and pay the fine and that's it. I went to the jail and got finger printed and obviously got caught by I.C.E. I was sitting in detention center for 3 weeks and got a bond after much difficulty.

Now my lawyer is trying to speak with DEA/FBI to get me to become an informer for them so I can get my work permit.

My case is that my dad came in US from Pakistan in 1997 on a parole with his family. He recieved a parole because he informed the government about the drug dealing going on between US and another country. He was promised a green card and million dollars. He signed few papers but they are not in our file. There are still pages missing for some reason. He didn't get the money, and when he called the immigration office to renew his parole, the immigration officer told him that they will call him because the file is private. The parole letter expired. My dad didn't know english back then as well.

Well its 2011, my hearing will be Thursday. I wanted to know if there is any likely the judge will grant me asylum since my dad was the one that informed the government and not me. I just graduated with a bachelor, and don't have any criminal record at all. I pay taxes. I have social security. I came here when I was young, so the government lawyer can claim that people who my dad went against wont recognize me since I am old now. Any possibilities??
 
I been in US for 14 years now and I am from Pakistan. Pakistan's current condition with bombs and all the killings that are going on there...would i be granted asylum?
 
what is the basis of your claim? How is the current conditions in Pakistan supporting your claim for asylum?
 
Your lawyer can't get you a work permit unless DHS paroles you under section 212(d)(5).
It is called public interest parole. Keep in mind that DHS might require you to leave and re-enter the US to get this parole. If this is the case, then be careful, because leaving the country will trigger the inadmissibility bar section 212(a)(9)(b). Even if DHS paroles you into the US, you will be inadmissible when you apply for adjustment of status in the future. Once again, don't leave the country even if DHS promises you that everything will be fine.

Your dad should have been eligible for a visa called S visa that leads to LPR. Your dad case has nothing to do with your case. Don't try to link your case to your dad case.

You have to contact a lawyer who is an expert in inadmissibility bars, public interest paroles 212(d)(5) and S visas if DHS agrees to parole you.
 
Thank you, I will keep that in mind!

How can I not link my case with my dad. I came with my dad. The government gave all of the family member a parole letter which expired within a year.

My dad can't go back to the pakistan because of he whistle blowed on drug dealing, and that dealing involved high officials from Pakistan, even the pakistan's government was involved. His life is endanger if he goes back and since I am his son there is a risk involved. Wouldn't the judge take that into consideration?
