She is afraid to go to authorities. She continued to renew her visa until the 10 year limit was reached, now she has no legal documents. She reports the Argentinian embassy insists she has to come to California in person for them to help her, but she is in Alaska and cannot board an airplane without legal ID. What should she do? Can she just go to the police or immigration? She is afraid of being sent to jail. Please help.
