Is that your solution to everything? OP will do whats best convenient for him/her and OP probably has some money save up to get a real lawyer at at very least call up the department of justice and see what are his/her options regarding this.





OP asking for advise and you people going on about how this is your post slaver era struggle and how its your guys turn, now are two completely different things. If you want to talk about you paid your taxes more than the average american or how you will rather self deport than be treated as a second class citizen, please do in an appropriate thread. Actually, we have lots of them already.


Actually, I didn't come here asking for advice. I came here because I felt down in the dumps and since there aren't many people I could confide in, I thought people here would empathize.

But if you still insist on making yourself a second class laborer go right ahead. I would not advice suing for the OP mainly because it was a contract job and it would really waste time and money but I'm willing to bet he has a very good claim if this was a serious full time job. Why the hell did they not ask about this BEFORE hiring him in the beginning?
And what's a substantial amount of time for you? I would like to see anyone with DACA who has fought the system over this or sued companies post their stories and see what kind of results they got. If there are any existing threads to verifiable sources, then please by all means link me to them.

And they probably didn't ask him because they assumed he was a legal permanent resident. Most employers probably have no idea what DACA is. That's why.

I think you guys are confused about what deferred action is. It's clearly defined as something that doesn't give you lawful immigration status. The government has simply been instructed to look away for the time being and give you a break.

Is that so hard to understand? If you were to ask me if i think i deserve permanent status in this country based on what i believe i contribute to it, i would say of course i do. My employer and others like it ask me on a consistent basis what's up with my status because they're trying to hire me legally. But do i really feel like this country owes me anything? Of course not. That's the difference.

DACA seems to have triggered, in some, this false sense of entitlement that may someday backfire not just at you, but at all the rest of us too.

You should seek some real legal advise from a real lawyer. We honestly don't know what to do since we are all new to this. There is only so much info we can learn online so it's always to take matter onto your own hands. What if they legally can't not renew your contract because of your status. That's stuff immigration attorneys could talk about.

I earned my shit and as long as I am legally present in this country, I better have every door open for me...eff outta here brah.
So now i'm insecure and haven't done anything substantial in my life? lol

Yeah, assuming things about people's personal lives really defines your good moral character.

Im not siding with the arguments being made here; my problem is with you. You make All dreamers look bad by your uneducated comments. Im all for debates, because thats the only way we can progress as human beings, but when you have 7,000++ comments that amount to gibberish and senseless drooling that adds no substance to topics I just really cringe.

I was trying to be nice before because I didn't want to be the guy picking on an individual with a clear disability but after you posted even more comments attacking others with little to no substance I felt compelled to do so.



it seem you made this account for the purpose of getting my attention. You didn't even bother spending time coming up with a good username.


7000+ of quality post. What's wrong sport? Please feel free to pm your thoughts and concerns about me. Dont turn this thread about me.

Azul, in all honesty i do feel terrible about your situation. But don't feel discouraged. There are other opportunities out there.

I'm sorry if i expressed some opinions that not everyone may agree with, but as far as your situation goes, i would just say take those letters and go find a job elsewhere. If there's something i've learned in the field that i work in, or any professional field for that matter, is to never burn any bridges that can come back to haunt you down the road.

It's hilarious that pro immigration activists themselves dont brag about what they have done for the cause and these dream tiger's cubs already are demanding and bragging.


If anyone bother to read the links I posted, any info you chose to not disclose to your employer can be used to fired you. It's important to understand what Intel you're legally can share and what info they can't ask. They can fire you if you have DACA only if you provided then with false information the first time they hired you. You can share what DACA but you are not legally enforce to.

As horrible, as it sounds, sometimes, its better to just stay quite when you know for sure you are being treated unfairly, and its just not DACA people that these sorts of things are happening to. Lots of people with legit causes don't pursuit legal action because by then most employers will know you as that person who turned around and sued them. They will blacklist you and they will share that among other employers. And good luck getting a job with out a job

I actually didn't, I couldn't care less about you chump. As you pointed out before, Im really surprised that you understood too, I changed the comment directed at you the first time because I didn't want to pick on you but your arrogance and immaturity bugged me. If no one else will point how absurd you sound trying to give "advice" when you can't even put one cohesive sentence together then I will. Im done with you, so no i won't PM you.
