The Reality of Millions of Immigrants
Of the more than twelve million undocumented immigrants in the United States, many crossed without papers in search of one dream: working honestly to provide for their families.
At Alonso & Alonso, we’ve seen that every client who crossed without papers did not do so to “break the law,” but because the lack of opportunities in their home country forced them to risk everything. Their dreams are stronger than their fears. They are focused on achieving a better future.
That effort moves the U.S. economy and deserves to open more doors, not close them. That’s why we want you to know: there are ways to fix your immigration status, even if you entered without papers.
Is It Possible to Fix Your Status if You Crossed Without Papers?
The answer is yes.
It doesn’t matter if you’ve been undocumented for years; the time you’ve been here may actually work in your favor. While entering without papers may have complicated your situation, that doesn’t mean you have no legal options.
With the right legal strategies, you may be able to obtain a work permit, permanent residency, and even citizenship. The most important step is to have an experienced immigration lawyer who carefully analyzes your case and stands by your side through every immigration obstacle.

Mistakes You Must Avoid if You Still Don’t Have Papers
- Waiting too long. Each case has specific deadlines, and laws change. Delaying for months or years may close doors that are open today.
- Thinking your case is impossible. Many people discover too late that they did have options.
- Trusting notaries or false advisors can be dangerous. In some countries, like Mexico, notaries have legal authority, but in the U.S. only immigration lawyers can legally represent you.
- Self-deporting. Leaving does not solve anything. Don’t let intimidation force you to give up. Your dreams deserve to be defended.
