I was honored to serve as a volunteer attorney at this workshop for University of California DACA Employees on June 10, 2023.


The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program has become highly uncertain the last couple of years. As of today, DACA recipients are awaiting a decision from the Southern District Court of Texas regarding the legality of the recent final regulation implementing DACA. A decision from this court may ultimately decide if DACA will

exist in the future or not. In light of the current uncertainty of the program, it is critical for DACA recipients to review alternative immigration options. Many DACA recipients may be eligible for other forms of relief, such as family-based or employment-based immigration options. It is a good idea for DACA recipients to consult with a qualified immigration attorney to learn about any alternate options that may be available.
