US citizen & undocumented spouse, don’t know where to begin

New account, don’t want anything tied to my regular, etc.

I am a US citizen (34F) married 3 years to an undocumented immigrant (34M) from El Salvador. He came here at 15. Before we married, tried to help him apply for DACA but then COVID happened, my grandmother died, my parents were hospitalized….and DACA shut down. He doesn’t qualify for a green card because he didn’t come through a valid port of entry. We applied for Keeping Families Together under Biden but that also got shut down. Any legal pathway to residency and US citizenship for him seems to be blocked.

He has no criminal record but things are stressful and I think we need to seriously consider leaving. I don’t know how to begin.

We don’t have desired skill sets (I work in refugee resettlement, or I used to until the EO, and he is a chef). We don’t have money for real estate investments. He doesn’t qualify for Canadian asylum. We have 4 cats and no children (did not want to drag children into the mess).

It’s really overwhelming. If anyone can point us in the right direction for research, I’d appreciate it. I just want to find a country where we can both be legal and work and actually have a family without fear of separation.

ETA: we worked with a lawyer for his DACA application and then DACA was closed to new applicants. We worked with a lawyer when we got married and discovered he does not qualify for sponsorship from me. We worked with a lawyer for the KFT application. Lawyers basically told us we can try for a waiver (none of them think this will work) or move out of the country (need to consult lawyer in those countries) or wait 4+ more years (scary prospect at the moment) in the hope of a fix down the road.
