The president's deferred amnesty covered parents who were undocumented on the date of his announcement, and did not cover parents who are in status.

It will depend on the circumstances of your particular case, but you have to be continuously residing in the US from January 1, 2010 up to the time that you file your application. However, the procedures for applying under the new rules will not come into effect until about 6 months from now.
