I'll try to summarize as I read.

When the announcement that DACA was being terminated was made, USCIS imposed the limitation that only people whose DACA expiration dates fell between September 5, 2017, and March 5, 2018, would be allowed to reapply, but that rule does not apply to the process announced on Jan. 13.

Quote:

It’s crucial to weigh the pros and cons of applying at this time. You must consider the possibility that the order requiring USCIS to accept applications may be appealed by the government before or even while your application is pending, and you may risk losing the $495 fee.

Personally, I don't mind losing $500 for this, so I'll submit the renewal some time this week.

I don't give two Fs about the 495. I am filing mine and my wife's.

Do you guys write anything on the i7 worksheet? I didn't write anything last time - I forgot _ and it still went through

We do not know if USCIS will prioritize cases for people whose DACA has less than 150 days left before expiration. People who have more than 150 days of DACA left before it expires may apply, but they should take into account the possibility that their application may be either rejected or accepted but deprioritized, and that while they are waiting for their case to be processed, the option to renew may end and they may not be able to get their $495 fee payment back

Wouldn't they have to either process the application or refund the money?

Is it possible that there are different rules since this would be appealing an injunction rather than rescinding DACA? They aren't saying don't do it, but be aware of possible outcomes and make a decision based on your circumstances.

I think MOC and NILC etc would force USCIS to honor those renewals if they charged the money. Shit at least give us our money back ��

They need you!
