can somebody tell me if there's anyway for a 20 yr old individual to move back to the states and legalize her life in the states?? (be it by working , or whatever) well the family have claimed refugees in canada a year ago , but they haven't contacted them for the case yet, and i was thinking if a 20 yr old would pull out of the case, cause it's her dad's case and move back to the states..

To start with, considering your age you may want to first apply for a student visa. With a degree from a US university, you would then be well positioned to pursue a temporary work-based visa (such as an H-1B visa), which could ultimately lead to an employer sponsoring you for a green card.

The path is long, but by taking one step at a time, the end result (i.e., getting a green card) is a very realistic possibility.

Good luck!
