A Federal Court has Ordered the Trump Administration to Comply with the Supreme Court’s Decision last month on the Federal Court Orders Trump to Accept New Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) Renewal Applications and Fully Reopen the Program to New Applicants.
The Court’s Ruling finding the Administration had Illegally Ended the Program was Certified on Monday, July, 13th, yet U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) had yet to Announce anything about Accepting New Applications, meaning Officials were Defying the Court’s Order.
To Qualify for DACA, Applicants must Meet the following Major Requirements, although Meeting them does Not Quarantee Approval:
- Have Unlawful presence in U. S. after entering the Country before their 16th Birthday.
- Have Lived continuously in the U.S. since June 15th, 2007.
- Were under Age of 31 on June 15th, 2012 or born on June 16th, 1981 or after.
- Were Physically Present in the U.S. on June 15th, 2012, and at the time of making their Request for consideration of Deferred Action with USCIS.
- Have Completed High School or a GED, have been Honorably Discharged from the Armed Forces, or are Enrolled in School.
- Have Not been Convicted of a Felony or serious Misdemeanors, or Three or More other Misdemeanors, and do Not otherwise pose a Threat to National Security or Public Safety.
USCIS must now Accept New Applications following the Maryland Order, Attorneys said on Twitter. “Administration will be accepting new #DACA applications!” Attorney Amy Maldonado Tweeted. “New court order makes mandate explicit,” Tweeted Immigration Reporter Alisa Zaira Reznick. So USCIS, fully Reopen the Program to Potentially Hundreds of Thousands of New Applicants Now. That’s Not an Ask, that’s an Oder.
