DACA Guidance in Coppell: Secure Your Future
Comprehensive DACA Support from Coppell Immigration Lawyers
The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program was created by President Barack Obama to protect certain immigrants from deportation and allow them to get temporary work permits. The DACA program has allowed some undocumented immigrants to secure a temporary work permit. At Christensen Immigration Attorneys, our immigration attorneys can help you navigate changes to this program under the current administration.
If you have questions about how the DACA affects your status, please call (972) 497-1017 for a consultation.
Eligibility Criteria for DACA in Coppell
In order to qualify for DACA, you must have arrived in the United States prior to 16 years of age, lived in the country continuously since June 15, 2007, and satisfied an educational requirement.
