Where are his parents?

If he is from a country that caused asylum conditions within the last year.

He will likely have to wait until he is 18, but even then, there may not be grounds for an application. If he cannot afford a lawyer, suggest that he make an appointment to discuss his options with a representative of Catholic Charities immigration division.
