Has anyone renewed DACA on their own by filling out the form and not going through a lawyer or any type of professional help?

I'm planning to fill it out by myself because this lady that has helped me out in the past is backed up with other cases, and it'll be ages til she gets to mine. Any thoughts, tips, comments?
Should be all good as long as i dont make mistakes right??

Thanks

I did it on my own and I think most of the people I know did it on their own. The only person I know hired an attorney did it that way only because he had the money and hates doing paperwork. It really easy though.

Did initial and both renewals myself as well.

Its fairly self-explanatory. Just double check everything and make sure to sign it at the end. If you have questions, read the Instructions for I-821D, Consideration for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals:

https://www.uscis.gov/i-821d

Also, lookup free shops (usually in Catholic churches) that are being offered in a lot of cities.

DACA renewal is very straight forward. You can do it on your own.

I filed for DACA, DACA renewal and Adjustment of Status without ever consulting with a lawyer or professional help of any sort. Take your time, read the instructions line by line, these forums are very helpful, ask questions if you are not sure we are here to help.
