Shashank Gupta (not his real name) is an IT professional in Kansas.
His father arrived in the US in 2006 on an H-1B work permit along with the family, and Gupta duly joined high school; later his parents applied for permanent residence (or the green card), which was unfortunately denied when his father lost his job and fell out of status. Gupta, who by then had joined university, did not return to India with his parents in 2011 and hence became an undocumented immigrant.
