Check current DACA renewal instructions and initial-request restrictions
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services · Shared Oregon or applicable federal route
Review current USCIS alerts and prepare a renewal through the appropriate forms and filing route.
Where and how to proceed: prepare, file and follow up
Start here: Read the current USCIS DACA alerts before paying or submitting; the captured page says renewals are processed and initial requests are accepted but not processed.
1. Is this for me?
Existing DACA recipients considering renewal; people considering an initial request should obtain individual legal review of the current litigation restrictions.
Service area: Oregon or applicable federal route; confirm venue and agency jurisdiction.
2. What should I prepare?
Some documents may be conditional. Ask about alternatives. Checkmarks are temporary and are not saved or sent.
3. Where and how do I submit?
Read the linked publisher instructions to confirm the receiving office, accepted submission method and current forms. This page has not separately verified those details. A county filter does not decide the correct court or filing location.
- Read the current USCIS DACA alerts before paying or submitting; the captured page says renewals are processed and initial requests are accepted but not processed.
- Compare your expiration and filing history with the renewal instructions; get qualified legal advice if your history, travel or record has changed.
- Prepare the current required forms and worksheet, supporting information and correct fees using the authorized online or mail route.
- Keep the receipt, monitor your account and mail, and attend or address any biometrics appointment as instructed.
Timing: USCIS recommends renewal filing 120 to 150 days before the current DACA approval expires. This is guidance, not a promise of approval before expiration; recheck current alerts and case-specific requirements.
4. What will it cost?
Details to confirm with the provider
Fees and fee-waiver eligibility have not been separately verified for this route. Check the current provider instructions. For a court filing, ask the court about its fee-waiver or deferral forms.
5. What happens after I submit?
Details to confirm with the provider
Keep a copy of what you send and its confirmation or receipt. Ask the receiving office how to track it, when to expect a response and how it will request missing information. These follow-up details have not been separately verified for this route.
6. What if something goes wrong?
Details to confirm with the provider
Read any returned filing, correction request or denial notice promptly. Ask the responsible office for the correction, review or appeal instructions and the deadline that applies to your notice. This guide does not verify a route-specific appeal process.
Language, disability and offline help
Ask the receiving office about language assistance, disability accommodations and an alternative to online submission. Available options have not been separately verified for this route.
DACA litigation and processing rules can change. The captured alert was last updated January 2025, so a live recheck is essential. Filing does not itself extend DACA or work authorization; no safety or travel assurance is provided.
