I think someone here mentioned Gutierrez was the one who help crafted the administrative relief so might be in the know that the program will be set for Aug. 15th.

Congressman Luis Gutierrez says that he believes the Department of Homeland Security is ready for the new Deferred Action program for DREAMers set to begin on August 15. The announcement of application procedures may be issued as early as today. According to reports:

At a press conference held by the Illinois Council on Immigrant and Refugee Rights (ICIRR) this morning, Gutierrez also argued that the plan sets in motion broader changes to immigration policy.

“It’s a temporary process that lasts two years,” Gutierrez said. “But once you begin the processes they are irreversible.” The rule change, Gutierrez argued, would empower an increasing number of undocumented immigrants to live without fear.

The elephant in the room is whether a potential Mitt Romney presidency would grind the process to the halt. The presumed Republican presidential nominee has not said whether he would reverse Obama’s executive order.

Obama issued the order (PDF) in June to enable undocumented immigrants who are under the age of 30 to register with DHS and, in turn, not face possible deportation for two years. They will also be eligible for a work permit and drivers license under the order.

If Gutierrez was involved in crafting this policy then I won't be worried too much.

We never stopped pushing for the Dream Act. We've been aware since day one that this is only a temporary relief so we never let our guards down for a second.
