Thank you very much for doing this.
Throw away account for obvious reason.
In the US now; Originally from Taiwan/ROC.
40 years old. Basically Dreamer category but not young enough to qualify for DACA.
Missed 245i as I was young and didn't paid attention.
Didn't finished college.
Other than my status(can't leave the country, can't fly easily in late 2020) doing pretty well in tech.
Talked to many lawyers and doesn't sounded there is anything I can do right now.
EB-5/E2 could be possible but not guarantee(risk vs reward).
Anything else I should be looking into?
- proberts 7y agoWhen did you initially enter the U.S. and in what status?
- old_dreamer 7y agoHave maintain physical presence since ~1990. There are no record of my crossing to the best of my knowledge. It's cathartic to just write it out...
- proberts 7y agoDo you have family in the U.S.? What's their immigration status?
- old_dreamer 7y agoThank you sir! My uncle/aunt (us citizen) claim guardianship but that "status" end when I turn 18? I don't have any status since. Still have us citizen aunt/uncle but no immediate relative with status.

- proberts 7y agoThen there doesn't appear to be anything that you can do right now unfortunately.
- old_dreamer 7y agoThank you Peter for your time.
- el_dev_hell 7y agoSorry if this question is inappropriate. I emphasize with your situation as someone with a family history from a similar region. How can you work in the US without residency? I'm in Australia, and it would be impossible to open a bank account or get employed without proof of legal residency. I might be naive, but I expected the US to be even stricter on this front based on their international image.
