2/ Flake spokesman @Jason_Samuels tells me that the DACA commitment came directly from @VP Pence.

I don't know what to think. If there's a commitment then pass DA along tax bill together at the same time, not after.

Trump administration is well know for flaking out on everything, and a commitment from Pence doesn't mean much.

Let's see how the cards are played out by everyone.

so in theory for us who already qualify can cut the 10 year to 5?

Apply for conditional permanent residency -> (wait however long to be approved, get an EAD in the meantime) -> Get conditional Green Card valid for 5 years -> File for removal of conditions right off the bat -> (wait however long it takes them to approve that) -> (5 years (or 3 if you're married to a USC) from your Resident Since Date - 90 days) - file N-400 for naturalization.

DA will go with the budget, not the tax bill, tax bill they will ram through with reconciliation (50 votes required), budget will need 60 since even though budget itself can pass under reconciliation, there's no way to put debt ceiling increase over that.

Yes for citizenship. If you're married to a USC then even 3.

Naturalization via military is a little murky right now since the who bills differ in those sections. RACA has a section says that you can naturalize under INA 328 and 329. DA doesn't. Both have requirements to remove conditions before you can naturalize.

Thing to consider is that under Dream Act most of us will be eligible to be citizens in 5 years from the date the initial application is approved.

I thought the conditional permanent residence was for a period of 8 years...at least that's what the DREAM Act text says.

I'm not worried about the details right know. We need DA passed first.

They might differ a bit. Still, both let you remove conditions as soon as you meet the requirements without some mandatory wait times.

This is not right. Democrats and Obama were "committed" to pass DA and CIR: words ared not deeds.

Fuck no. Attach DreamAct to the tax bill. Pence cannot make DreamAct happen.
