Hi there,

After having read other threads on this forum I got my suspicion confirmed that being the parent on a US citizen won't help me until she's 21 and can petition for me. (I always thought so, even though friends kept insisting that I won't be deported when my F1 expires being the parent of a US citizen. Apparently it's hard for people to understand that I don't care if I don't get deported if it means staying illegally. Legal stay is the only way I'd be interested in staying in the country.)

So, I'm looking at employment options when I graduate in a few years. I'm currently a undergrad student, with intentions of continuing on to a masters degree in library science. What visa category would be best suiting for me when I get to that point? I'm thinking EB-3, but I'm not 100% sure.
With a masters degree, would I still be dependent on the occupation in question being in high demand, or would it just be to find a employer willing to do the paperwork?
