Things we DO NOT qualify for - Page 5

wow- this is very depressing! I knew the obstacle that we have being illegal, but I didn't know the obstacles we would face once we were legal- It is true-Legally Illegal is what we are....

They should add that DACA beneficiaries should not pay income taxes since apparently we are deprive from all government related benefits and so on. -_-

Indeed,makes you wonder sometimes.I think they mentioned something about voting as well.


To add to the list:

Contributions to Federal elections.

Immunity from deportation

Right to re-enter the US

Are we now able to take those qualifying exams to become certified professionals in certain fields for certain states? For example I know you need to take an exam to be certified to practice medicine.

Prestigious scholarships like Rhodes, Fullbright. Possibly certain grants for grad schools like NSF. I'll try to find more later.

Instead of focussing on what we can't do, let's focus on what we CAN do now that we couldn't five months ago. If a job doesn't cater to your status...big deal! Find another one to apply to, quit the complaining.

Also folks, we are NOT eligible to benefit from the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) once it is fully instituted in Jan 2014.

All i want is to be able to have a decent paying job, I'm tired of getting paid 8 an hour.

We qualify in CA, dunno about other states.

Don't talk in General every state is different ..Texas gives FAFSA money, I repeat,, Texas gives FAFSA money

No the CA DREAM ACT is state money AB130 is cal grant
AB 131 is institutional aid school based scholarships

CA DREAM act you apply through the California Student Aid Commission not FAFSA.
