Orange County Deferred Action DACA Lawyer
What is Deferred Action?
Deferred Action is a program that began in 2012 to benefit individuals who have been in the United States from an early age and have no legal status. Deferred Action does not technically provide a legal status but it does provide work authorization and relief from the worry of deportation during the course of the authorization so long as the individual stays out of legal trouble. The benefits of having work authorization include access to a social security number and access to a driver’s license in most states.
Basic Requirements for Deferred Action in Orange County:
- Applicant must have entered the United States before the age of 16
