Trump says there are no 'mixed signals' with Congress on DACA - Page 2

What will happen with the people who expire March 6th? Do they lose their status, job?

Let's assume that something like Bridge Act passes on March 5th, at Midnight. Something tells me that many people would lose their jobs, based on the fact that it takes 3 months at least for USCIS to process applications. Also, by discontinuing application processing, assuming they approve something is going to create huge backlogs as we have seen in the past.

It is possible, although that is not how documents work. Just as it would be, pretty difficult to enforce an immediate repeal of USCIS documents, meaning, if they had revoked all at once, while the documents say a given date. It is not possible to magically extend the validity of a document.

Anyhow, something to keep in mind for people with expirations near the deadline. To prepare for it.
