There is no Dream Act. You are applying for deferred action under DACA. There is no path to residency through DACA. DACA is a deferred action program that keeps the government from seeking your removal from the country and providing you with employment authorization and the ability to travel outside the country in some circumstances. You may be able to apply for lawful permanent residence of you have some other basis such as marriage to a United States citizen but not solely because you are granted DACA.
