How can I apply for a Deferred Action?

Applying for Deferred Action in Oregon requires that you meet certain eligibility criteria. In order for your application to be considered, you must be able to demonstrate that you meet the eligibility criteria. The criteria includes that you must have been brought to the United States before you turned 16 years old, have continuously resided in the United States since June 15, 2007, and have been present in the United States on June 15, 2012, and at the time of requesting Deferred Action. In addition, you must be in school, have obtained a high school diploma, or have served in the U.S. military. You must also not have been convicted of a felony or a significant misdemeanor. If you meet the eligibility criteria, you can apply for Deferred Action. To do this, you will need to fill out Form I-821D and submit it to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) with the appropriate fee. This form requires information about your identity, immigration history, family information, and other details. In addition, you will need to provide evidence of your eligibility, such as school transcripts, birth certificates, and other documents. Once your form and supporting documents have been submitted, USCIS will review your application and make a determination on whether or not you are eligible for Deferred Action. Once your application has been approved, you will be granted temporary relief from deportation and will be able to work and live in the United States with a valid work permit.
