So I don't actually have to provide proof of being here every year for the last 28 years?

No of course not where did you get that idea ?

You just need to prove you got here before 16. They are not asking for contioust residence in since you were 13. Just from the past 5 years

Well, that's what I'm trying to clarify. DACA page on USCIS says proof of continuous presence for the past 5 years. But it seems people here have been showing more than 5 years.

Have continuously resided in the United States since June 15, 2007, up to the present time

Of course, the cut off date is going to be updated to 2010.

Wait, you wanted to say that they are NOT asking for continuous presence since I was 13, right?

By the way, how do I change the title of this thread? I searched but couldn't find how to do it. I meant to say "continuous residence" not "continuous residency"

I fixed that a while ago.

Q31: To prove my continuous residence in the United States since June 15, 2007, must I provide evidence documenting my presence for every day, or every month, of that period?
A31: To meet the continuous residence guideline, you must submit documentation that shows you have been living in the United States from June 15, 2007, up until the time of your request. You should provide documentation to account for as much of the period as reasonably possible, but there is no requirement that every day or month of that period be specifically accounted for through direct evidence.

It is helpful to USCIS if you can submit evidence of your residence during at least each year of the period. USCIS will review the documentation in its totality to determine whether it is more likely than not that you were continuously residing in the United States for the period since June 15, 2007. Gaps in the documentation as to certain periods may raise doubts as to your continued residence if, for example, the gaps are lengthy or the record otherwise indicates that you may have been outside the United States for a period of time that was not brief, casual or innocent.

If gaps in your documentation raise questions, USCIS may issue a Request for Evidence to allow you to submit additional documentation that supports your claimed continuous residence.

Affidavits may be submitted to explain a gap in the documentation demonstrating that you meet the five-year continuous residence requirement. If you submit affidavits related to the continuous residence requirement, you must submit two or more affidavits, sworn to or affirmed by people other than yourself who have direct personal knowledge of the events and circumstances during the period as to which there is a gap in the documentation. Affidavits may only be used to explain gaps in your continuous residence; they cannot be used as evidence that you meet the entire five-year continuous residence requirement.
