Hello,
I have a 17 year old cousin that was left behind by her mother. They were both living here in Texas illegally and the child ran away from home. The mom went back to Mexico without an effort to find her. The child has now resurfaced and has a baby of her own. My family is helping to support both the teenager and the baby because the boyfriend was beating her and is actually in jail for other charges. Does she stand a chance at becoming legal based on being abandoned here by her mother and being a minor? Please advice.
Answer
She may be eligible to apply for DACA, but is not eligible to adjust status in the U.S.
There is no basis for an immigration benefit based on her circumstances right now.
