It would be much worse if we end up pre-DACA status. That would suck.
To be honest I wouldn’t apply. I would rather move then to be some 3rd class citizen. The whole point of passing a bill is to get us some permanent relief. This misses the mark. This makes us even more vulnerable.

Sincerely if a Dream Act didn't pass during the Obama Administration, it is highly likely it won't pass during a declared enemy of the immigrants watch.

fyi, if they don't make that 125% requirement, they just dont lose their status, they will be criminalized.
As of today according to google, 125% of the federal poverty level is $12k. I think the government is basically saying, if you claim welfare or any other federal aid while you are on conditional residency, you are OUT.

I think the same guidelines are applied to people obtaining green cards from family based ties. They can't apply for aid until they become citizens. I learned this from seeing a friend sponsor her mom for a green card.

The bill also requires all recipients to maintain an income 125% of poverty line. Any Dreamers just starting out in the job market or with incomes below that can’t apply. DACA recipients who care for children or elderly parents can’t apply. Disabled DACA recipients can’t apply.

This income requirement continues *forever* no matter what. It demonstrates that the House GOP considers DACA recipients nothing more than the workers, not Americans or people independent of the value of the labor—and only if they maintain a certain level of productivity.

they would be criminals. First offense, up to 6 months in federal prison. A second offense, up to 2 years. THIS is the status the GOP is offering Dreamers

Awesome! Dont forget to carry your green card at all times when u get it, or else you’ll automatically become a criminal and be up for deportation.

A negative SCOTUS ruling won’t affect any application already being processed.

So get your renewals in ! I’d rather wait and see how 2018 shapes out than get a shitty bill!
