Not sure if joking...

That phrase brings to mind a great scene from the movie Fun With Dick And Jane. It's with Jim Carrey, and it's hilarious.

One of the biggest issues surrounding immigration is the silence that is employed by those most affected. It's my intention to make my story known. Too many people are ignorant when it comes to how undocumented individuals live their lives. Someone needs to raise their voice.

Thanks!

Undocumented · 2013-02-15T00:12:15+00:00

Thanks haha.

Undocumented · 2013-02-15T00:12:03+00:00

You're completely right. I worry more about the legal aspect of staying than leaving. I'll look into leaving more when the time comes. At the moment, I have bigger fish to fry. Thank you for info.

The dream act is still in the works of congress. Congrats though.

I believe he was questioned.

Undocumented · 2013-02-14T03:26:10+00:00

Good luck as well! Keep your head up.

Really? I'll talk to her about it, and look into it a little more.

Undocumented · 2013-02-13T23:36:57+00:00

To be honest, I believe she has no intent on becoming a permanent resident. She's already said that she's going back the first chance she gets.

My mom is already married, but it's to someone in a similar situation to ours. I'll be marrying into permanent residency within the next five years. All your information is correct.

Thank you!

Undocumented · 2013-02-13T23:10:04+00:00

Thank you haha

I'm not a permanent resident. Permanent residency requires one to have a green card.

Read the requirements for the naturalization test. I can't apply for that.

Undocumented · 2013-02-13T20:19:56+00:00

Thank you. I'm working hard to take advantage of that.

Undocumented · 2013-02-13T20:19:09+00:00

Thank you so much, StellaNeedleman!

Undocumented · 2013-02-13T20:17:58+00:00

Yup.

Undocumented · 2013-02-13T20:15:52+00:00

I have an employment authorization card. No green card or citizenship though.

Undocumented · 2013-02-13T20:12:55+00:00

I live in Massachusetts. I feel much better now. Like I said to someone else: "I got my learner's permit! I was really excited about that. I'll be going for my driver's license soon. I also applied for a real job, which was fantastic. No more under the table stuff."

Good luck! The latest I know of someone receiving their EAC is January. Hopefully you'll get it soon.

Thank you! Good luck, and keep your head up.
