Frequently Asked Questions: Rescission of Memorandum Providing for Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents (“DAPA”)
06-15-2017 05:03 PM Release Date: June 15, 2017 Q. Why is DHS rescinding the policy? A. Secretary Kelly considered a number of factors, including the nationwide injunction of the DAPA memorandum, the ongoing litigation, the fact that DAPA never took effect, and our new immigration enforcement priorities. Q: Why was DAPA never implemented? A: Federal courts halted the policy before it was implemented.* Q. What were the factors to be considered for DAPA?
A. This rescission will not affect the terms of the original DACA program as outlined in the June 15, 2012 memorandum. Q. Does this mean that DACA recipients will not be able to apply for a three-year work authorization, as established in the DAPA memorandum? A. DACA recipients will continue to be eligible as outlined in the June 15, 2012 memorandum. DACA recipients who were issued three-year extensions before the district court’s injunction will not be affected, and will be eligible to seek a two-year extension upon their expiration. No work permits will be terminated prior to their current expiration dates.* ### Topics: Immigration and Citizenship Services, Immigration Enforcement Keywords: undefined More... |
