Silent majority supports DACA legislation paired with border enforcement - Page 4

We're going the correct path, kind of. The TPS idea works, but it's essentially the same thing as DACA. Why not cut the middleman and swerve around the TPS?

God a this point can we pay for the wall. All the money we paid for DACA, whatever we pay for residency, and citizenship. Just take our money. **desperate for peace of mind**

Y'all sound ignorant af

Lol yup

The difference between DACA and a TPS-like status we could get from legislation is that:

DACA does not give us a legal status. TPS does. In other words, we'd be considered to be in the country legally at that point, as opposed to the very strange situation right now where we're still technically illegal/undocumented, but with a work permit. DACA says you're deportable, we're just not going to deport you right now, so here, have a work permit.

A legislative program that gives us legal status, like TPS or BRIDGE Act, would officially say: you're in the country legally now.

Does that mean that we could get sponsored by say, your job? Or not needing to return to home country if you came in EWI?

I thought the same thing, but I'm not knowledgeable enough to know for sure. I would appreciate any of you's insight on this

Weren't TPS holders allowed to join the military and obtain expedited citizenship? I know many TPS holders but they never took that route

I thought it didn't. I remember it as this whatever-status that we have, that has to be renewed every year, every other year. I don't remember. It's been a while since I've talked about it with someone whose had it. Even the USCIS site doesn't mention it.

Maybe we'll have this special stipulation where it will.
