My domestic partner has been denied her drivers license and also her work permit . We are domestic partners and have been together for the past 6 yrs . I am very concerned because she is here illegally and there is nothing I can do to help her she filed for residence in 95 but the person that took her money and did her paper work never explained to her all this entailed he entered her papers under asylm which Mexico does not recognize so I am wondering why did the immigration office even accept the forms if they knew it would never be fulfilled also she signed papers in english and didn't even know what she was signing only that she would get her papers is there anything we can do ? Please help , I am very concerned for her safety and our happiness . Sincerely Katie
