Recently, the Secretary of Homeland Security announced that certain people who came to the United States as children and meet certain criteria may request consideration for deferred action for a period of two years, and would then be eligible for work authorization. Deferred action is a discretionary determination to defer removal as an act of prosecutorial discretion. Deferred action does not provide an individual with lawful status.
There are criteria to determine your eligibility for deferred action. Please contact The Marc Lopez Law Office and schedule an appointment, so we can discuss if you meet the criteria for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals.
