Understand The Deferred Action For Dreamers Program

By Anita Ortega


The United States government seeks to offer immigrants without a legal permit an opportunity to acquire valid status. It has developed the deferred action plan that runs in phases of two renewable years. The plan accommodates both men and women, with equal opportunities for each gender. The advantages of getting a DACA status include the opportunity to acquire a driving license and social security number.

With the DACA application, everyone has a chance to make his stay legal. It grants you the right to seek employment in any American sector. You can travel within and out of America at will. This opens up opportunities for education trips, employment or charity work. One is only required to register the details of travel with necessary offices. Your work and stay benefits are in the level of a legal residence.

A vetting process has been established to scrutinize the applications made under DACA program. The conditions for revocation depend on the judgment by the government concerning national security. A successful applicant who becomes a threat to national security may have his status withdrawn. The rules provided by the government must be respected and adhered to. These rules will be communicated during application.

DACA does not guarantee successful applicants permanent stay. One can not transfer the benefits accrued through this status to family members. Relatives, friends, guardians and dependents cannot benefit because of your successful application. Consulting an expert in immigration during application ensures that you give the correct details to avoid legal action. Necessary information on application may be obtained from the Board of Migration Appeal.

Information given by some agencies might not be accurate. This exposes you to the danger of being misled. The level of experience and credibility of your agency contributes to the success of your application. A specialist attorney or professional is at a better position to offer advice. There are charity organizations whose credibility is not questionable. They have assisted numerous applicants.

The eligibility bar is low and allows a lot of people to qualify. An applicant must have been above 15 years and below 31 on January 15th 2012. It is also open to persons who went to US before their 16th birthday. A successful applicant must have stayed in US since 2007, June 16th without any interruption. It is acceptable to have a reasonable brief absence.

The application should be submitted in person by an individual who was in US on June 15th 2012. Third parties are not allowed to hand-in the application on behalf of someone else. Other eligible applicants are those who did not go through immigration scrutiny and gained entry before 15th June 2012. Immigrant with expired work permits are allowed to apply.

Immigrants who went to US to study and have completed their courses may apply to stay. Service men who have been discharged honorably from the army are eligible. High school graduates are also eligible. It is a strict requirement to be free of felony charges, misdemeanor or criminal record to ensure qualification.
