DACA
Keep your DACA and your work permit current
DACA’s rules have changed often while the courts decide its future. We follow each change and file your renewal in the right window, so your work permit doesn’t lapse.
Included in the flat fee
Forms I-821D and I-765, checked against your last approval
A reminder 180 days before your expiration date
A review of any arrest or travel since your last renewal
A call with a lawyer if anything in your history has changed
Your renewal, in four steps

Step 2: You update us

- 03
Step 3: We file
Between 120 and 150 days before expiration, the window USCIS suggests.

Step 4: You get your notices
We send you a copy of every notice and tell you what each one means.
DACA questions
My DACA expired. Can I still renew?
If it expired less than a year ago, you can usually still file a renewal. After a year, it’s treated as an initial request, which follows different rules right now. Call us before you file either one.
Can I travel outside the U.S.?
Only with advance parole approved before you leave, and only for reasons USCIS accepts, like work, school or a family emergency. Ask us first: travel can affect a later green card case, for better or worse.
I married a U.S. citizen. Does that change anything?
It may open a path to a green card. Whether you can adjust here depends on how you first entered. Bring it up at your consult; we’ll look at both cases together.
Don’t let your work permit run out
Book a consult six months before your DACA ends, and we’ll take it from there.
