    23 years in the US filed with a deadbeat husband
    A friend of mine is encountering the following situation and needs advice. She has been here since the age of 7 and is now 30. Her parents have Permanent Residency but never filed for her, and she has a son born here in the United States. She was married a couple of years ago and filed papers with her husband in 2002. She is now separated (not divorced) from her husband and he will not attend to their appointments.

    Questions:

    Being her parents have permanent residency here since 1982 does she not qualify for citizenship?

    Being she has been here for so long and has her entire family living here including a US born son, what can be done outside of her deadbeat husband leaving her to hang. Isn't there some form of hardship application of sorts?

    She has an appointment with DHS in about 4 weeks and is up in air about what to do.[/b]

    Pending Hearing with DHS
    Given the complications of her situation, her husband's non-cooperation, and the impending interview, you should urge your friend to meet with an immigration lawyer.
