My boyfriend is from Sudan, and has refugee status in the US because of the war there. He can work and go to school here legally, and he's been here for 3 and a half years. Right now he's on his first trip back home since he came to the states... sort of a family emergency. He should be home in about 6 weeks.
Anyway, what I'm wondering is whether anyone knows the fine details about refugee status. Does it expire? If so, when? How is the time determined? Once you're a refugee, can you eventually be deported if you don't become an actual citizen within a certain amount of time?
I would ask my bf about this stuff, but obviously he isn't here right now. No one I've asked so far has any clue... so maybe someone here will. Here's hoping... ^__^
