CONSIDERATION OF DEFERRED ACTION FOR CHILDHOOD ARRIVALS ("DACA")
We began filing DACA requests for clients beginning in August 2012 when the program first began. Since that time we have had numerous success stories in which individuals who were brought to the U.S. as children without documentation were granted work authorization through DACA.
In addition to being granted work authorization for renewable periods of two-years, the government also agrees not to initiate removal proceedings against a DACA requester for the same two-year renewable period.
Not everyone is eligible for DACA. Common ineligibility factors include: (1) certain criminal history; (2) lack of high school diploma or GED and failure to enroll in GED program; (3) lack of continuous presence in the U.S. for the required period; (4) born before the required date; or (5) entered the U.S. after 16th birthday.
For more information, please contact us so we can determine if you or your family members are eligible for relief under the DACA program.
