There could be a younger person, those who have been afraid to apply but the door was open for them.
When the lawsuit happened it was supposed to stop for now. I am unsure about the renewals. What impact the aw suit has on those.
What has been happening too is the ability to leave the country with permission, approval, and to re-enter and apply for permanent residency, a green card, legally. This is for some but I am not certain of the numbers. I read about it on a "dreamer" website as many were doing this. You must meet one of three criteria.
If what I have posted is incorrect please put more information for all of us.
Thank you.
