If you are a DACA recipient and wish to continue enjoying these benefits, the renewal process is a critical step to ensure your legal status remains intact. At E-Z Immigration, our experienced immigration attorneys are here to guide you through the DACA renewal process, protecting your future in the United States.
What is DACA?
DACA is an immigration policy introduced in 2012 that provides temporary protection from deportation and work authorization to certain undocumented immigrants who were brought to the United States as children, known as “Dreamers.” DACA recipients, also called “Dreamers,” must meet specific eligibility criteria, including age, continuous residence in the U.S., and education or military service requirements.
Why is DACA Renewal Important?
DACA status is temporary and must be renewed periodically. Renewing your DACA status is crucial for several reasons:
- Protection from Deportation: DACA provides temporary protection from deportation. Renewing your status ensures that you remain shielded from removal proceedings.
- Work Authorization: DACA allows you to legally work in the United States. Renewal ensures that you can continue your employment without interruption.
- Access to Education: DACA recipients can pursue educational opportunities. Renewal ensures you can continue your studies or enroll in educational programs.
- Driver’s Licenses and Benefits: Many states offer driver’s licenses and access to other benefits to DACA recipients. Renewal helps maintain these privileges.
The DACA Renewal Process
The DACA renewal process involves several key steps, including:
- Eligibility Assessment: Confirm that you meet the eligibility criteria for DACA renewal.
- Collect Required Documents: Gather supporting documents, including proof of identity, DACA approval notice, employment authorization documents, and any additional documentation required.
- Complete Form I-821D: File Form I-821D, Consideration of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, along with the required fees.
