Helping Young People With DACA Immigration
DACA grants certain young people legal residence in the country, permitting them to obtain work authorization for two years. It is a variation of the DREAM Act, which has not been signed into law.
If you entered the United States — even illegally — before the age of 16, have graduated high school or earned your GED and have not committed an excluding offense (such as a crime of moral turpitude), you may be protected by DACA. You must prove that you were present in the United States from June 15, 2007 to June 15, 2012, when President Obama signed the bill into law. Once you are approved, you will be entitled to a work authorization.
Deferred Action For Childhood Arrivals (DACA) Immigration And How It May Affect You
This is a major opportunity for many young people who entered or were brought to the United States. This area of law, however, is constantly changing. While it may be simple to fill out the appropriate forms and complete the process, you may not be fully protecting yourself.
