Hey, I am a korean citizen born in Japan to a Korean father and a Japanese mother. I was taken to america when i was 7 or 8 years old, and have been there until i was 21. I was unaware that i was illegal until i was about 18 or 19 and my parents told me that i couldn't get a drivers license or a job. They didnt spell it out for me but i connected the dots. i had a lot going on at the time so i couldnt drop everything and leave...but eventually thats what i did when i turned 21, i figured there was no future for me being illegal in america. Anyway, its been 2 years since ive been back to japan and i want to visit my friends in california. i was wondering if there is any way that the embassy will issue me a tourist visa if i explained my situation to them. or is there absolutely no chance? do i have the 10 year bar like the rest of the people that overstay over one year? is this something that the embassy will show mercy with and maybe give me a visa to visit for two weeks? Thanks
