About Form I-821D — Consideration of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals
Form I-821D is used to request Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) — a federal policy that provides protection from deportation and eligibility for work authorization to certain individuals who were brought to the United States as children. DACA recipients, often called Dreamers, must have arrived before age 16, been under 31 as of June 15, 2012, and meet continuous residence and education or military service requirements. DACA must be renewed every 2 years. The program's legal status has been subject to ongoing litigation; applicants should check the current USCIS guidance before filing.
