Any insight might be helpful!
Imo, I don't see how the unknown in DACA would affect switching jobs if that's the only factor. DACA's status affects all jobs, inlcuding your existing one, so on the surface, if you get to make 150% of your current income, why not go for it?

I told them that I have no problems and concerns just financial issues. they gave my 15+K as well nice career progression as well. so try to contact your leadership that you might be leaving due to financial issues and see if they can offer you more and keep in touch with other job offer as well. good luck
Wow they contacted your current manager? Did you check the box that tells them to not contact most recent company? I know a lot of people do that for obvious reasons.
