This program allows undocumented youth who were brought to the United States as children and who meet certain criteria to be considered for work authorization and relief from deportation. Eligibility for this program applies to undocumented youth over the age of 15 and under 31 who had arrived in the US before they turned 16 and who have pursued or are pursuing education or military services. Young adults who achieve DACA status will be given temporary relief from the possibility of deportation and would be able to legally live and work in the United States.
