Process for U.S. Citizenship?

My friend's parents brought him here when he was very young (about 4) and he has lived here in this country since that time. He attended a U.S. High School and currently works freelance art. He's 25 now but still doesn't have his citizenship. He is waiting on the Dream Act, but that may never pass. Does he have any other options? For all intents and purposes he is a U.S. Citizen, since this is the only country he has ever known.

    Also check out the customer guide.

    Also, there is information on laws, regulations and interpretations controlling immigration and the work of the immigration-related bureaus of the Department of Homeland Security. You can explore agency and judicial interpretations of those laws. You can also find handbooks and guides used by immigration officers in performing their mission as well as guides created to help through the immigration process.

    Does he have any legal status in the country?

    The DREAM act is dead.

    If he is here illegally,his only option is to return to his home country and find a way to come back legally. He can never gain legal status if he is here illegally.
