Our client, who moved to a foreign country and became undocumented due to missing an asylum hearing, has overcome numerous challenges. Despite her status, she and her husband raised two college-educated children, one an AmeriCorps volunteer. She received Temporary Protective Status following Haiti’s earthquake. Her son became a US citizen, married, and started his own family. After long-awaited hope, ICE and JFON managed to terminate her removal order, enabling her to secure a green card as a US citizen’s mother. Today, she proudly holds her green card and looks forward to applying for naturalization in five years.
