asylum applicant as a dependent + marriage with non-citizen | what are my options?

Asylum/Refugee

My partner and I have been together since before we migrated with our parents to the US. We both are dependents in our parents cases since we were under 21 at the time it was submitted.

It’s been 10+ years for both of us and both of our families are waiting for an asylum interview still.

We’re engaged and would love to get married soon but our understanding is that once married, we wouldn’t qualify as dependents in our family’s asylum cases which would leave us in the limbo.

Anyone know what our options are?

I know a lawyer would be able to help :) but we’re researching about our options in advance. Thanks!
