I need help urgently

[riczepeda]

Im an 18 yr old , newly graduated high school student.
I was illegally brought to the states by my parents who too are here illegaly , they have never attempted to legalize me , in fear of deportation. I have no money for an immigration lawyer and i wish to further study here in the states, for anyone who wants to respond by saying student visa, i think thats a costly and rather difficult choice. I have no money to go file the applications and i have no money to even go back to my homeland. my parents refuse to help me because they see it as my problem and not theirs. I have always hoped for an Amnesty but thats never going to happen and if so way to far down the future. I want to be able to work here , go to college , get a drivers licence like all normal people eventually do in there lives.
is there anything that i can do that doesnt involve great expenses and\or a great ammount of time ?

At this point your options are not many but hope and pray that there is some form of amnesty provided by the Obama administration... Otherwise you become another statistic in the growing multitude of illegals.

as a realist and as a person who understands government i say that is highly unlikely.
as a pessimist and a person who has no faith in government i say that is even more unlikely.
as an optimist and a person who sees the works of politics id say that in no way is it ever going to get passed during Obama's 1st term. maybe his 2nd(if there is one)

I don't want to be blunt.. just want to give you some hope dude.

Many times its hopes and dreams that keeps a lot of people going in the face of adversity & incredible odds of success, even a sliver of hope is worth exploring and hoping for..... So hang in these

People have very strong opinions about legalization specially when it comes to illegals, I wish to keep my opinion private (it does not belong in this forum).

We all all need a helping hand and a kind word sometimes (specially when its not your action that caused you to be where you are)... so don't be so pessimistic, it may not be easy but its at least possible now that people are discussing this issue.
