U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USICS) has rescheduled a national stakeholder engagement on the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) final rule.
Key Points:
Additional Information: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published the final DACA regulation in the Federal Register in late August. The regulation was designed to “preserve and fortify” DACA, which shields hundreds of thousands of individuals who were brought to the U.S. unlawfully as children from deportation and allows them to apply for work authorization. It is scheduled to take effect Oct. 31; however, litigation over DACA continues and immigration advocates have stressed that litigation could delay the regulation’s Oct. 31 effective date. Individuals in need of renewals should submit applications as early as they are eligible, given the uncertainty around the litigation.
