The Development, Relief and Education of Alien Minors Act (DREAM) is a bi-partition bill introduced to Congress in 2001 and reintroduced in 2009 by Utah Senator Orion Hatch and Illinois (D) Senator Richard Durbin created to help youths brought the United States by undocumented parents as children who are now graduating from High School not only find a path to citizenship for themselves, but also be allowed to continue their education into college and beyond. To qualify for the DREAM Act an applicant must adhere to several very strict guidelines that include the following: The applicant must have entered the United States prior to their 16th birthday. The applicant must have been in the United States for at least 5 consecutive years prior to the bill passing. The applicant must have graduated from High School, obtained a GED or currently be enrolled in College, a Trade School or another type of Institution for Higher Learning. The applicant must currently be 30 and under at the time they are applying. The applicant must have good moral standing (no previous or current convictions). With all of those requirements met and The DREAM Act is passed a person will be granted a temporary, conditional allowance to remain in the Untied States for up to 6 years provided they follow the next set of guidelines.

Biometrics is just a picture of you and your fingerprints, tied together with your name.

I think thats one of the things that worries me the most...the cost fo the application of the Deffered Act. I was hopeful that thered be a possibility to get the work appliation fee waived because of deferred action, but its been announced it wont. I just hope the cost of the application for the Deferrred Act isnt more than the cost of the employment authorization application...

It's a tough life out there. It really is. But this Action, hopefully, will make everything better. But welcome to the forums. We are all family now!

King: Biometrics (or biometric authentication)[note 1] refers to the identification of humans by their characteristics or traits. Biometric identifiers are the distinctive, measurable characteristics used to label and describe individuals.[2] The two categories of biometric identifiers include physiological and behavioral characteristics.[3] A physiological biometric would identify by one's voice, DNA, hand print or behavior. Behavioral biometrics are related to the behavior of a person, including but not limited to: typing rhythm, gait, and voice. In other words, what I understand is its a physical. Heres the link wherer I found this info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biometrics Hope it helps...

I was actually talking to my mom Monday about getting a tattoo and she mentioned she had overheard on the spanish speaking television shows on Univision that having a tattoo could possibly affect ones case when applying for the Deferred Act or the Dream Act. Both require background and biometric checks. This is all word of mouth. I dont have any links to provide. Sorry.

One comment that I'd like to add regarding this post are the FEES. Ive seen many guests/visitors ask how much will it cost and that information hasnt been released yet, but regarding the I-765, its a possibility that fee may be waived. The fee for the I-765 would be $380. However, there are several reasons for which it may be waived, they are the following: If you are in one of the categories noted below, no fee is required. No fee is required if filing for an initial employment authorization document under one of these categories: Refugee, asylee or paroled as a refugee N-8 or N-9 Nonimmigrant Citizen of Micronesia, Marshall Islands, or Palau Granted Withholding of Deportation or Removal Dependent of certain foreign government or international organization personnel Applicant for asylum (applicant filing under special ABC procedures must pay the fee however) No fee is required if filing for a renewal employment authorization document under any of these categories: Citizen of Micronesia, Marshall Islands, or Palau Granted Withholding of Deportation or Removal Dependent of certain foreign government or international organization personnel I found this information on the following link: http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=73ddd59cb7a5d010VgnVCM10000048f3d6a1RCRD&vgnextchannel=7d316c0b4c3bf110VgnVCM1000004718190aRCRD I think itd be great if the fee for the I-765 were waived. I think (this is my personal opinion) that there may be a small fee to apply for the Deferred Act..but maybe I'm wrong...I hope I am.. Im not even adding the fees for the background and biometric check..but I'd be willing to pay to be able to stay in the country I consider my home.
