It cannot be use for any other adjustments process at this time (also be sure to understand that DACA grants LAWFUL PRESENCE, NOT STATUS). All will DACA/DAPA do for your mother is have her deferred from being deported, that is it. Nothing more and nothing less.
Now, DAPA which is for parents is also for parents of USCs not the other way around. If she entered before 16, and before 2010, she can apply for DACA regardless how old she is now.

"Expands the provisional waiver program announced in 2013 by allowing the spouses, sons or daughters of lawful permanent residents and sons and daughters of U.S. citizens to get a waiver if a visa is available.
There may be instances when the qualifying relative is not the petitioner."
Does this mean that although my mother was petitioned by a non-immediate relative (brother), she can still qualify for this relief because my grandparents are citizens?
