BREAKING NEWS: Deferred Action Update Renewal Process for DACA to Begin Call Us to Renew Your DACA Status and Work Permit 213-387-2484 (Los Angeles, CA) The first DACA approvals will begin to expire in September 2014. To avoid a lapse in the period of deferral and employment authorization, individuals must file renewal requests before the expiration of their current period of DACA. USCIS encourages requestors to submit their renewal request approximately 120 days (four months) before their current period of deferred action expires. DACA is a discretionary determination to defer removal action against an individual. Individuals in DACA will be able to remain in the United States and apply for employment authorization for a period of two years. Individuals who have not requested DACA previously, but meet the criteria established, may also request deferral for the first time. It is important to note that individuals who have not continuously resided in the United States since June 15, 2007, are ineligible for DACA. Individuals may request DACA renewal if they continue to meet the initial criteria and these additional guidelines: -Did not depart the United States on or after Aug. 15, 2012, without advance parole; -Have continuously resided in the United States since they submitted their most recent DACA request that was approved; and -Have not been convicted of a felony, a significant misdemeanor or three or more misdemeanors, and do not otherwise pose a threat to national security or public safety. The renewal process begins by filing the new forms requred by the US Citizenship and Immigration Service. There is a filing and biometrics (fingerprints and photo) fee totaling $465. As with an initial request, USCIS will conduct a background check when processing DACA renewals. Call Us at 213-387-2484 to Renew your DACA status and Work Permit
