I am a mess, and I have barely been at this job that I liked for 4 months. I am just going to disappear from the job on that date. I told my supervisor about the situation, and he was supportive. However he was surprised about what it's like to be a DACA worker. I don't know if people will find out at work.
I knew something was wrong with this renewal. Ever since I started my job I had been saving money.
Today is day 91 I think.
It is unfortunate that they did not put you on leave of absence. Hopefully they can hire you back after you are approved.

They need to put themselves in our shoes, we can't get any aid, no one will pay our cars or mortgage. Some of us are losing jobs that do not come up every single day. I'll have to start all over again and pray my position becomes available soon. I truly hope we all get approved soon and we can forget about this ordeal. Good luck everyone... I just felt I needed to vent.
This renewal mess has been a nightmare for all us that have expired.

Hopefully we get a wave of approvals this week. Do not lose hope!
