More details to this question:
Im a DACA recipient before the age of 18 and have renewed ever since, without leaving the country ever. I’m looking to go through consular processing because I entered without inspection. Do I need to file a 601A waiver even though I haven’t accrued any unlawful presence? Thank you so much.

If you became a DACA recipient before the age of 18 and have renewed ever since, you would not have acquired unlawful presence and would not require a waiver for that before returning home for consular processing.
