Please help! Do I qualify for daca?
Hello everyone, I will try to explainby my story as brief as possible.
I came here (US) when I was 12 years old, left the country when I turned 15 (by air) And came back (by feet) when I already was 16. Since then I've been living here permanently. The only evidence that i dont have is is that I turned 16 in the US. Everything else I have but I prob turned 16 in out of this country. I'm 24 and I've been living here since my last entry in lates 2003. What would you recommend me to do? I have a clean record. Please help me! |

You can apply, all decisions are made in a case by case basis.
How many months were you out of the country for? |

None of us here are practicing attorneys. You should consult a lawyer or go to an information session to learn more about DACA. Chances are that if you cant determine eligibility based on the rules on the official uscis webpage, then you need to speak to someone who can help you with the filing process.
Think of us as those who can help you answer minor questions about what to put on a section of the application, what new information came out regarding daca/cir. People can mislead you on here, so play it safe. If you need to learn more about what people submitted for proof, there are official threads on here for it. Were you 15 when you came back to the US? Strict interpretation of the rules show that you must have entered BEFORE 16, so 15 and under. Do you have a high school transcript that covers the year you turned 16? Anyways, my advice is speak to an immigration attorney. |

Either with her I cannot fix anything because they said I came twice illegally to this country and if I want to try I will have to leave the country for about ten years. ( period ) So that's why my last resource is to try applying for DACA, but it seems to be another problem too. I could always lie but I really would like to do things strictly in the right way. I'm just stuck. |

Yeah since DACA kinda "forgives" our initial entry and thats why so many here want to apply for AP because rentry with AP would be legal entry and make adjusting a lot simpler. However, even with DACA you would be forgiven one entry but still would have another. And what do you mean no on can help you have you told them about DACA?

There is no explicit requirement for the last arrival in US being before turning 16, there is no requirement for continuous presence before June 15 2007. I also looked over the I-821D form, they do not ask for continuous presence before June 15 2007. If it were me I would attach a small letter explaining why you believe that you are eligible. They may reject you one way or another. They will not send your case to ICE unless you are denied for criminal reasons. Also make sure to attach plenty of evidence for 2007-2012 (bank statements, school/college records/bills/etc). |

Telling a dreamer to lie to USCIS is probably one of the worst decisions you can make in life. They don't take false story lightly. Be honest with them. I read somewhere in this forum, someone has a similar condition and was approved. But he only left for several weeks.
