Can I apply for Deferred Action of Childhood Arrivals?

Persons who have deportation orders who qualify for deferred action for childhood arrivals (DACA) can apply for it. The application would go to US ICE instead of U.S.C.I.S. only if a person is in detention – otherwise, the application goes to U.S.C.I.S. A DACA application operates to stop the execution of deportation orders.    Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
