8老師:
我們現在還沒有拿到綠卡。女兒正在申請學校,她在填Financial aid的表格FAFSA時,可以選 eligible noncitizen嗎?
以下是可以選的criteria,隻要滿足一項,就可以:
Generally, you are an eligible noncitizen if you are one of the following:
- U.S. permanent resident, with a Permanent Resident Card (formerly known as an Alien Registration Receipt Card or "Green Card”)
- Conditional permanent resident (I-551C)
- Other eligible noncitizen with an Arrival-Departure Record (I-94) from the Department of Homeland Security showing any one of the following designations: “Refugee,” “Asylum Granted,” “Indefinite Parole,” “Humanitarian Parole,” or “Cuban-Haitian Entrant”
- A citizen of the Republic of Palau (PW), the Republic of the Marshall Islands (MH), or the Federated States of Micronesia (FM).
You can receive federal student aid if you are an eligible noncitizen. You must enter your eight or nine digit Alien Registration Number (ARN) on the FAFSA.
我是H1,女兒和老婆是H4, 這種情況,女兒是eligible noncitizen 嗎?
-H-4 holder is not qualifed for FAFSA. Your child needs to use advance parole (AP) to go outside US (e.g. China, Canada, Mexico), and then use AP to reenter US. Thus, her status will be "paorlee", not H-4, and thus she will be qualifed for FAFSA. If she does not have AP in hadn, she may go to the local USCIS Office to apply for the emergency AP.
十分感謝你的幫助。
