Due to ongoing litigation, USCIS currently is not making a final decision on, initial applications for individuals who may meet the requirements for DACA. USCIS will make a final decision on an application to renew DACA that is timely filed or filed within one year of expiration. If you previously held DACA but failed to renew within one year of its expiration, you should consult with an immigration attorney.

"Thank you all!"
The attorneys and paralegals and their assistants at Akula Law in Dallas handled my immigration case for the US efficiently, with care and with attentive responses to questions. Katrina was our lawyer for the remaining few months of our case, originally started by Daniele. Also with Erika and Christie helping us, and despite COVID-19 I finally arrived in the US in June and we couldn’t be happier. Thank you all!
