Curious to find out if having been brought to the US as child, having a high school diploma, employment record, etc., makes it easier to gain citizenship.

No. Your a** is illegal so stop looking for a pass. Be grateful for what you have stolen. Show your appreciation and respect for this nation and go back to your homeland and apply to come to the United States the proper way. While you are gone and waiting, use your experience and what you have learned to help uplift your own people and country. Teach literacy; how to speak, read and write English. Teach economics and business. Teach respect for America, our laws, and the importance of being an American patriot to those who wish to become citizens here. If you don't feel in your heart to do this or something similar to it, then maybe you should not return.

when you consider that extra Mexicans are given visas for family contributors than the different united states of america, that has a tendency to erode the visas left for the unskilled from that united states of america. besides the undeniable fact that, there are NAFTA expert visas which furnish them (and Canadians) one extra leg up on everybody else in the event that they fulfill those standards. There are additionally an excellent variety of non everlasting worker visas given out each and each three hundred and sixty 5 days and a ton of those flow to Mexicans.

The path to citizenship is the same for everyone. Don't expect any special bypasses because you were brought here as a child and all you listed above.

Canadians don't. I was brought to the US as a child, attended school here, had a job, etc. No special priviledges.
But if you've been in the country legally for this long, it's not especially difficult to get citizenship. It's basically a matter of filling out the forms and showing up for the interview and ceremony.

It is IMPOSSIBLE to get citizenship. INS/Consulate is booked up the butt. Law is Law. Unless are Central American (touch USA soil law) or they prove extreme hardship themselves have a serious medical illness, or a close relative such as their parents, or brothers/sisters do they will not get citizenship. Sometimes, not even that.

No. They were illegal as children and are still illegal in high school. Living illegally in the USA and attending school does not give you an easier path to citizenship, nor should it.

no, but I appreciate your asking. Come here the right way, does that anger you? Blame your parents. You aren't special, you've been allowed to slide for too long.
All the things you've done help you if you came here legally in the first place. Back of the line!

Not at this time, but the Congress is working on the dream act that would do just that. I for one think it's the wrong thing to do. How many people in the world would put their children on planes, train, automobiles, and on foot to ensue their children could take advantage of this loophole. We would have to have a special child protective service just for this unaccompanied children

No. They get deported and banned from returning for 10 years, just like the rest of them.
God bless you and good luck.

It depends... Are they here illegally?... If so then I hope there is no way possible for them to become citizens any faster than someone waiting in line at home.
