This document provides information about Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). It outlines the eligibility requirements for DACA, including age, education status, criminal history, and continuous residence in the US. The benefits of receiving DACA are also described, such as obtaining a work permit, driver's license, social security number, and permission to travel. Statistics are given showing that over 500,000 people have applied for DACA, with over 70% approved and just 1% denied. Resources for more information on DACA are listed.
As part of his immigration platform, President-elect Donald Trump pledged to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) initiative which was announced on June 15, 2012.
We do not know how or when DACA might end. There are two actions that he can take:
Rescind the memo authorizing DACA and allow previously issued DACA and work permits to remain valid until expiration. No new applications for first-time DACA or DACA renewal would be accepted.
Rescind the memo authorizing DACA and declare immediately invalid all previously issued DACA and work permits.
This presentation is about the need for immigration reform as it relates to students that have a desire to pursue higher education. It provides demographic information about the current undocumented student population in the US as well as how to emotionally support undocumented college students.
A rich interactive workshop designed for youth and young adults. Goals of the workshop are to increase solidarity and community within a diverse student body, and increase support, opportunity, and access for undocumented students.
Youth leave the workshop with (1) historical knowledge of the immigrant rights movement, (2) increased understanding and appreciation for immigrants and their journey, (3) increased awareness of undocumented people, and (4) federal relief programs undocumented students might be qualified for.

Stephany Cuevas, EdM Presentation at Science of HOPE
This workshop is intended to help participants understand the circumstances and needs of undocumented immigrant populations. Existing scholarship shows that an undocumented status constrains immigrants’ access to social services and exposes them to unsafe and undesirable work conditions, how the consequences of this status are passed down from parents to children in the form of delayed early childhood development outcomes, and how it erects numerous barriers for undocumented immigrant students as they make adult and post-secondary transitions, such as limited job and college opportunities. This workshop will introduce participants to this population and the different barriers they face as a consequence of their immigration status. Furthermore, it will also expose participants to the concept of “UndocuAlly,” posing the question “how do we make ourselves visible allies to undocumented populations?” in order to begin to consider how we can better support this population in our work.

President Obama announced on November 20th several changes to US immigration policy including to expand the Deferred Action program for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) as well as provide relief to parents of US citizen and lawful permanent resident children (DAPA). On December 4th, the Legal Aid Justice Center provided an information session on the new polices that included details on eligibility requirements, how and when to apply, and other related issues such as eligibility for work permits, authorization to travel outside the United States, and eligibility for Virginia drivers licenses.
This material was put together by Legal Aid Justice Center. This presentation is intended to provide general legal information and is not a substitute for legal advice. Each case is different, and you should consult a qualified immigration attorney if you have questions about your own case. Notarios publicos are not attorneys and are not qualified to give you legal advice.
This information is accurate as of December 4, 2014.
Undocumented immigrants who demonstrate that they meet certain criteria will be eligible to receive Deferred Action for a period of two years, subject to renewal, and will be eligible to apply for work authorization. This will apply to many people who would otherwise qualify under the DREAM Act.
CGRS and Kids in Need of Defense (KIND) have collaborated to produce an important report urging lawmakers to reform the U.S. immigration system for migrant children who are coming to our borders with surging frequency. They come, often unaccompanied by an adult, in search of safety, stability, and protection. These children face a system that was created for adults, does not provide them legal counsel, and is not required to consider the child’s best interests, despite the potentially enormous impact of the proceedings on the child’s life and future.
DEFERRED ACTION – discretionary determination to defer removal action of an individual as an act of “prosecutorial discretion”.
“Deferred Action” (DA) does not confer lawful status upon an individual. In addition, although an individual whose case is deferred will not be considered to be accruing “unlawful presence” in the U.S. during the period deferred action is in effect, deferred action does not excuse any previous or subsequent periods of unlawful presence.
One way of permanently immigrating to the U.S. is through sponsorship from one of your close relatives. This falls under the category of family-based immigration and it is one of the ways Congress has emphasized the importance of family unification in American Immigration Law. There are numerous important criteria that need to be met in order to successfully qualify a family relationship as eligible for family-based immigration and in order for an individual in that process to qualify as a relative's sponsor.
"Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson today announced the process for individuals to renew enrollment in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has submitted to the Federal Register an updated form to allow individuals previously enrolled in DACA, to renew their deferral for a period of two years. At the direction of the Secretary, effective immediately, USCIS will begin accepting renewal requests. USCIS will also continue to accept requests for DACA from individuals who have not previously sought to access the program. As of April 2014, more than 560,000 individuals have received DACA.

The term DREAMer originally took its title from the bill in Congress, nonetheless it features a double which means concerning the undocumented youth who have massive hopes and dreams for a superior potential. This large school lesson gives an opportunity for students to understand way more with regards to the DREAM Act, reflect on varied perspectives about it and recognize their very own opinion to defend in writing.
To become a US citizen you have to apply for the naturalization process but first, you have to make sure that you are eligible for this process. After you file your application you will be notified about your US citizenship interview and test. If you fail in this test you will be allowed to take the test again but if you fail again, you must start the whole citizenship application process all over again. And if you clear the test and interview then you will be invited for citizenship ceremony and will take the oath of Allegiance.
The WA State Asian and Pacific Islander DACA Director conducted a robust training for community health advocates associated with International Community Health Services, the largest provider of health services to the Asian community in the Seattle region.

The Dream Act
Angie, a student born in St. Martin, her mother was born in Haiti. At the age of two her mother immigrated to the U.S with her, she was raised and educated here; she graduated from high school and is stuck because she is not able to attend a university due to not being here legally. Angie is now working two jobs and she is not able to attend college to get her degree. Every year millions of students graduate from high school and colleges,” among those millions graduates are about 65,000 undocumented students” ( Perez). The Dream Act or Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors is an American legislative proposal that “will allow current, former, and future undocumented high-school graduates and GED recipients a there step pathway to U.S citizenship through college, work, or armed services” (American Immigration Council) In June 2012, the Obama Administration established DACA (Differed Action for Childhood Arrivals), it was a federal government program created in 2012 under Barack Obama to allow children brought to the US illegally temporary right to live and study in America ( From The Vault). With DACA came many restrictions allowing these children to continue to a higher education. These children spend their entire lives in the United States being given no choice but to live their lives as undocumented immigrants. If the Dream Act is passed it will not only improve higher education in the US, it will also improve education in a diverse way such as internationally, and improve local security. The Dream Act will improve the economy, and improve the recruitments numbers in the military.
About a month ago, graduates were given a scare with a decision made by the White House to put a stop to Differed Action for Childhood Arrivals known as DACA. For many students who immigrated to the US at a very young age, all they know and used to is the United States it is a country that has become their country. They have been raised into the culture the music, the way that they have experience the high school environment interacting friends and making memories.
Many of these undocumented children had no choice in being brought to the US, and now they have to pay the penalty of leaving a place they have come to know as home. These children has gone through kindergarten, middle school, and high school with many of citizens of the United States, the have been accepted into the daily activities done with other children like them. Many of these students are high achievers who has been in honors and AP classes throughout their school histories. Some of these students are student body presidents, volunteers at hospitals and churches while serving in their high school ROTC.

Recorded on June 27, 2013 - Under changes to the refugee and immigration system, a Humanitarian and Compassionate application (H&C) and a refugee claim cannot be made at the same time. In fact, if your refugee claim fails, in most cases you are barred from making an H&C application for one year. This webinar, intended for community workers, will provide legal information to highlight some of the factors to be considered when this important strategic decision is made, and offers hypothetical scenarios for discussion.

WINDING UP of COMPANY, Modes of DissolutionKHURRAMWALI
Winding up, also known as liquidation, refers to the legal and financial process of dissolving a company. It involves ceasing operations, selling assets, settling debts, and ultimately removing the company from the official business registry.
Here's a breakdown of the key aspects of winding up:
Reasons for Winding Up:
Insolvency: This is the most common reason, where the company cannot pay its debts. Creditors may initiate a compulsory winding up to recover their dues.
Voluntary Closure: The owners may decide to close the company due to reasons like reaching business goals, facing losses, or merging with another company.
Deadlock: If shareholders or directors cannot agree on how to run the company, a court may order a winding up.
Types of Winding Up:
Voluntary Winding Up: This is initiated by the company's shareholders through a resolution passed by a majority vote. There are two main types:
Members' Voluntary Winding Up: The company is solvent (has enough assets to pay off its debts) and shareholders will receive any remaining assets after debts are settled.
Creditors' Voluntary Winding Up: The company is insolvent and creditors will be prioritized in receiving payment from the sale of assets.
Compulsory Winding Up: This is initiated by a court order, typically at the request of creditors, government agencies, or even by the company itself if it's insolvent.
Process of Winding Up:
Appointment of Liquidator: A qualified professional is appointed to oversee the winding-up process. They are responsible for selling assets, paying off debts, and distributing any remaining funds.
Cease Trading: The company stops its regular business operations.
Notification of Creditors: Creditors are informed about the winding up and invited to submit their claims.
Sale of Assets: The company's assets are sold to generate cash to pay off creditors.
Payment of Debts: Creditors are paid according to a set order of priority, with secured creditors receiving payment before unsecured creditors.
Distribution to Shareholders: If there are any remaining funds after all debts are settled, they are distributed to shareholders according to their ownership stake.
Dissolution: Once all claims are settled and distributions made, the company is officially dissolved and removed from the business register.
Impact of Winding Up:
Employees: Employees will likely lose their jobs during the winding-up process.
Creditors: Creditors may not recover their debts in full, especially if the company is insolvent.
Shareholders: Shareholders may not receive any payout if the company's debts exceed its assets.
Winding up is a complex legal and financial process that can have significant consequences for all parties involved. It's important to seek professional legal and financial advice when considering winding up a company.
