Working With a DACA Immigration Attorney at New Frontier Immigration Law

The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) processes your DACA renewal application. They do not require you to work with an immigration attorney. If you feel confident about meeting all of the conditions they put forward to produce an application packet that may be successful, you can proceed.

If you would feel more comfortable with one of our DACA immigration attorneys, the benefits are significant. They include:

• In our initial strategy session, we invite you to share your story from the day you arrived in the US. 
• We identify any areas of concern specific to your history and, based on what we learn, we present options to resolve any outstanding issues and move forward with a DACA renewal application.
• Our legal team completes your application, including gathering appropriate supporting documentation and meeting all other USCIS requirements.
• Once the application is submitted, we track its progress and keep you informed of updates.
• If the application is not successful, we will appeal the ruling.
• Should the appeal be turned down, we will review all options to stop any threat of deportation.

What You Should Know About DACA

DACA is a program offering renewable two-year protection from deportation and a work permit. Certain individuals who came to the United States as children may qualify for DACA. 

Those who qualify for DACA are also able to request work authorization. Work authorization allows you to legally work in the U.S., even if you are not a citizen or lawful permanent resident. 

Eligibility for Initial DACA Application in Glendale, AZ

To apply for DACA, you must:

• Have entered the U.S. illegally before you were 16 years old
• Have been in the U.S. on June 15, 2012, and had no lawful status on that day, and been in the US when you applied for DACA
• Not have been convicted of a felony or certain misdemeanors, or pose a threat to national security or public safety
• Have lived in the U.S. full-time since June 15, 2007
• Have been born on or after June 16, 1981
• Be in school or have completed high school or a GED, or been honorably discharged from the armed forces

Renewing DACA in Glendale, AZ

If you have DACA or your coverage recently expired, you can apply for a two-year renewal. You may want to speak with a DACA immigration attorney about your specific situation, but generally, these are the requirements to renew:

• You must meet all the eligibility requirements for the initial application
• You should apply for a renewal between 120 and 150 days before your current DACA expires
• If your DACA expired less than 1 year ago, you can still apply for renewal, but it’s better to apply 4 to 5 months before expiration, as there are hundreds of thousands of applications and only so many people to process them

You may renew your DACA application online or by mail. There are multiple steps to follow and the process can be complicated. Our DACA attorneys are here to help make sure all of the requirements are met and concerns specific to your circumstances are addressed.
