The Present and Future Dream

My Present and Future Dream

Getting a Social Security number is going to change my life and open opportunities that I did not have before. Working legally, being able to get a driving license, and getting school finance aid are three examples.

            Many illegal immigrants all over the world move to United States of America for better opportunities. In order for immigrants to get a job, they use a fake Social Security number, which is illegal, but it is the only way to get a job, having a Social Security number. The majority of illegal immigrants in the U.S.A live with the fear of being deported back to their home.

            Another fear of immigrants is driving without driving licenses. If a cop was to stop someone for driving without a license, they could get sent to jail; then get deported for being illegal. Without insurance, immigrants drive with even more fear of having car accidents. If they were to get in a car wreck they would have to pay with money from their own pocket. Depending on the situation of the accident, if it was caused by drunk driving, they be sent to jail and even deported.

            The biggest struggle for an illegal student is getting a good career. They are not able to get school financial aid. Nor can they apply for scholarships and get the education they want, because it costs too much money. Many immigrants choose to go straight to any job available and most just drop out of school because they believe they do not have any hope of doing better than just any job available.

            Getting a Social Security number will open doors for me that were shut before. I will be working legally without the fear of being deported. Being able to get a driver license will help me get to work without depending on my family or friends to drive m. Also, being able to get school financial aid will help me be able to pay for college. I will be able to pursue my dreams  with no obstacles thanks to “The Dream Act”.
