Final DACA Regulations Near Release After Clearing White House

The Biden administration is close to issuing a formal rule to grant some 600,000 undocumented young people work authorization and protections from deportation.

Homeland Security Department regulations (RIN 1615-AC64) governing the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program cleared review at the White House Office of Management and Budget Aug. 19, the final step before their public release.

The Obama administration created DACA through an executive memo in 2012. The program has since faced continued political and legal challenges.

The US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit heard oral arguments over the program in July. The Biden administration is appealing a Texas federal district court judge’s ruling last year that DACA was illegally implemented because the program didn’t go through the regulatory process.

A New York district court judge earlier this month rejected dreamers’ request to order the DHS to resume processing new DACA applications.

Unfortunately lumping us with farm workers and TPS is not gonna get us anywhere.

So let me get this straight:

1. Protection from deportation and EAD now will not be bundled up.

2. Instead of paying 495$ every 2 years, we will have to pay 990$ every 2 years (495$ for protection/495$ for EAD).

Love the scheme.

i think it’s just $95 for DACA alone.

Accordingly, although the total fees will remain at $495, requestors can pay $85 when requesting DACA (Form I-821D) and can request a work permit, which would cost an additional $410 (Form I-765).

which means that now SCOTUS can choose either to let us be without the ability to work or let us work with the ability of getting deported.

plus we keep getting mixed up with the other irrelevant immigrants groups which ensure we never get legalized.

GOOD JOB NPCs!!! FANTASTIC JOB!! this is what you got us by pandering to Biden, more risk! but hey, Orange man bad.

cant wait for Trump to come back in 2024 and kills DACA in one slice and forces congress to do something for good.

No, $410 for EAD (same as most other categories), $85 for DACA. Still comes out to $495, just that the $85 from biometrics got shifted to being for DACA. You can technically just file I-821D without an I-765 and pay $85 for just deferred action but in all reality: nobody is going to do that.

kills daca in one slice? lmao he tried doing that in 2017 and it didn’t happen.
