OP here.

The story is that I may need to leave the US in a few months while my immigration paperwork gets sorted out. USCIS has a huge backlog of cases, so it could take 2 years, but maybe not for my type of application, in which case it could take just a few months - my attorney cannot tell me. He’s not even sure at this point whether I will need to leave, but then last time, he was sure I didn’t need to leave, until I was given 48 hours notice to leave, which was incredibly stressful (that was years ago and we left as a family).

My son is doing well in school, and I was wondering whether he could stay to finish high school, with friends checking on him. Or would he need to stay with someone? Do I need to sign a letter authorizing his stay? He’s never stayed by himself before.

Will he have funds? Is he ok with this plan? Are you in MD, DC or VA? Every state has it's own laws.[/quote]

Yes to funds.
No, neither of us are OK with this! But neither are we OK with giving up what he's worked so hard for in school. We don't know how long we might be gone, and then it's goodbye to changes of a good college.
We're in Montgomery County, MD, as I stated in my OP.
