This implementation raises some serious issues concerning those who have DACA whether to renew eventually in the future or who are waiting for their approvals currently when this is implemented,especially those that have currently applied for DACA on there own and who might have some sort of minute criminal record or removal/deportation order.I have to say I have no idea what the outcome might be currently.

This leads me to believe something will have to be done by the Congress for eligible Dreamers to get something done considering the circumstance and effect of this implementation.

I agree. I doubt they will just arrest people on the spot for EWI/overstay if they have a pending petition which would be the only reason you have to be at a local office.

I have no idea why this would be necessary, though. Maybe to catch people who are committing marriage fraud?

And that was the fear with the '86 Amnesty.

People thought the entire process was a ploy to deport them. I know people who were here and did not adjust because they were that afraid. Now 25+ years later, they are still undocumented and have gotten into legal trouble that may potentially disqualify them from CIR.

I was talking to my sister about this today and looking at the DACA numbers, I really wonder how many people will even attempt to adjust through CIR.
