DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) Legal Support
Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) is a vital immigration policy that offers eligible undocumented individuals who were brought to the United States as children temporary protection from deportation and work authorization. At KW Immigration Law PC, we provide dedicated, compassionate legal guidance for initial DACA applications, renewals, and related matters.
We recognize the uncertainty many DACA recipients face. Our goal is to offer reliable legal support that empowers you to maintain a lawful presence and pursue your goals in the United States.
Who Qualifies for DACA? To be eligible for DACA (initial applications — when accepted by USCIS), you must:
- Have arrived in the U.S. before your 16th birthday
- Have continuously resided in the U.S. since June 15, 2007
- Be physically present in the U.S. on June 15, 2012, and at the time of application
- Be under the age of 31 as of June 15, 2012
- Have no lawful immigration status on June 15, 2012
- Be currently in school, have graduated or obtained a GED, or be an honorably discharged veteran
- Not have been convicted of a felony, significant misdemeanor, or three or more other misdemeanors
Current Status of DACA: Due to ongoing litigation, USCIS currently accepts DACA renewal applications but is not granting new initial applications. This legal landscape may change, and it's important to consult with a qualified immigration attorney for the latest updates and how they may apply to your case.
Services We Offer:
- DACA renewal applications
- Guidance on changes in DACA policy and litigation updates
- Work authorization renewals
- Screening for alternative immigration relief options
- Strategic legal planning for long-term immigration stability
Tips for DACA Applicants and Recipients:
- Start your renewal process early—USCIS recommends applying 120 to 150 days before your expiration date
- Keep detailed records of your educational enrollment or completion
- Gather any updated identity or residence documents to support your application
- Contact us immediately if your DACA status has lapsed or been affected by recent policy shifts
