Can a legal resident for 10 years apply for Green card?

I suggest that you seek some other route for your U. S. immigration. The 10 year green card is for those who can show that they have been present in this country for 10 years, have good moral character, and demonstrate that their removal would cause exceptional and extremely unusual hardship to a U. S. citizen or permanent resident spouse, child, or parent. The relief is sought not with U.S.C.I.S. but with the immigration court. In order to bring your case before the immigration court, you must be illegal. In the event that you manage to have your case in front of the court, relief may take years and the consequence of failure is usually an order of removal.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
