Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) is a vital program that has allowed many young immigrants, often referred to as "Dreamers," to live, study, and work in the United States without fear of deportation. At the Law Office of Michael P. Kenny in Colorado, we are dedicated to helping Dreamers understand their rights and navigate the complexities of DACA to secure a brighter future.
DACA is an immigration policy introduced by the Obama administration in 2012 that provides temporary protection from deportation for individuals who were brought to the U.S. as children and meet certain eligibility criteria. While DACA does not offer a path to permanent residency or citizenship, it provides crucial benefits, such as work authorization and protection from removal.
To qualify for DACA, you must meet specific criteria:
For many Dreamers, DACA provides critical benefits that enable them to pursue their goals and contribute to their communities:
Although DACA has been a lifeline for many young immigrants, its future remains uncertain due to ongoing legal challenges and shifting immigration policies. Recent court rulings have limited the ability to process new DACA applications, though renewals are still being accepted. It’s essential for current DACA recipients to stay informed about the status of the program and ensure their renewals are filed on time.
If you are a current DACA recipient, it’s crucial to renew your DACA status before it expires to avoid any gaps in protection or work authorization. The renewal process involves submitting the necessary paperwork, supporting documents, and fees to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). At the Law Office of Michael P. Kenny, we help ensure that your application is completed correctly and submitted in a timely manner.
Filing for renewal at least 120 to 150 days before your expiration date is recommended to avoid delays that could affect your employment or legal status.
If DACA is terminated or altered significantly, Dreamers may face uncertainty regarding their legal status and future in the U.S. In such a scenario, it’s essential to explore alternative legal options. Some potential pathways include:
