This guide is for individuals whose DACA expired after September 5, 2016 and are looking to file a “renewal” application in the coming months. The guide includes annotated forms I-821D, I-765 and I-765ws which form a renewal application packet. If an individual’s DACA expired on or before September 5, 2016 or was DACA terminated, they will need to file an application as a “renewal-initial.” This means that extra documentation will be needed in order for the application to be considered complete. That type of application packet is beyond the scope of this guide.

Finally, presenters will provide an update on legislative efforts and identify opportunities for advocacy.
