The History of DACA
DACA was first introduced by President Obama in 2012 and has since provided temporary relief to thousands of undocumented immigrants, who are called “Dreamers.” To be eligible for DACA, you must have entered the US before your 16th birthday and lived here continuously since June 15, 2007. You must also meet certain education or military requirements and pass a background check.
Changes to DACA under the Trump Administration
In September 2017, the Trump administration announced its plans to phase out the DACA program. This decision was met with widespread backlash. As a result, federal courts ordered the administration to continue to accept and process DACA renewal applications, but new applications were put on hold.
In June 2020, the Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration's attempt to end DACA was unlawful. This decision allowed current DACA recipients to renew their status and for new applicants to submit initial requests.
Current Status of DACA
DACA continues to face challenges and uncertainties, but it remains an important protection for Dreamers. Currently, USCIS does not accept initial applications for DACA. However, you can still renew your status if you have previously been granted DACA.

How & When to Renew Your DACA Status
DACA recipients must renew their status every two years. It is important to begin the renewal process well before your DACA expiration. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) suggests doing so 120 to 150 days prior. This makes certain that you have enough time to gather the necessary documents and file your application.
If you are unsure when your DACA expires or need assistance with the renewal process, turning to a Dallas DACA lawyer like myself can be invaluable. I can guide you through the renewal steps and see that your documents are submitted correctly and on time.
