Wassup gente my name is Raul I'm 19 years old and I applied for DACA back in September! I've been here since I was 8 years old, never knew I was here illegal until my teen age years. I live in North Carolina . I graduated back in 2011 with honors in French and small bussines! The day I heard about DACA was when I was getting ready to go buy a one way airplane ticket back to a contry I varely know about, until my mom turned on the radio and we heard Pioling Sotelo say that Mr. Obama had passed this act! And now I'm here paticiently waiting for a decicion on my case. I did my biometrics back in October 11 and its December no so hopefully ill get an asnwer soon! GOD willing...

True!

You can call, but they won't tell you anything new besides what you can see online on the USCIS website. There are others that sent their application in August still waiting. The only thing you can do right now is to keep waiting.

What office was your case sent to? Vermont and texas tends to be a little slower than Cali and Nebraska. Trust me, your not the only one worrying. As long as you provided all the appropriete documents and evidence, you will be okay. Hopefully you were not in a rush to send in your application and missed things. But if you are really freaking out, then call USCIS and ask them about your case.

We got an approval today !

no. i picked a car that was under 13,500 and had a big down payment in order to keep my monthly payments small. there are a lot of first time buyer incentives out there but if you go for a big car then you will get in trouble if you can not keep up on your payments. not only with the loan company but also with your credit.

same here -__- i'm sure we are getting closer !

Hi Isla: Regarding your question about being a police officer, the answer is NO. I outlined in red the reason you cant, it being you have to be a U.S, Citiizen. The Deferred Act does not provide you with citizenship nor residency. Below is what you need to be a police office and here is the link where I found this info. Good luck. http://education-portal.com/requirements_to_become_a_police_officer.html Requirements to Become a Police Officer Police officers are responsible for enforcing laws and maintaining peace within communities. In addition to earning a high school diploma, police officers receive training at a police academy. Some police officers complete degree programs in law enforcement or criminal justice as well. Step 1: Meet Basic Prerequisites All police departments require their police officers to have at least a high school diploma or equivalent education. While some departments hire graduates right out of high school, most require potential officers to be at least 21 years old. Thus, students who are hired after high school must work and train until they are 21 in order to become an officer. Other basic prerequisites for police officers include being a U.S. citizen and having a valid drivers license and clean record. Step 2: Complete Undergraduate Education Completing an associate or bachelor's degree program in criminal justice, law enforcement or a related discipline can be helpful in obtaining a job as a police officer. While not required by many departments, applicants may find formal education advantageous when vying for officer positions. State and federal agencies generally require their recruits to have a college education. Degree-holders also may advance their careers more rapidly than those without a relevant degree. Some departments will even provide tuition assistance to officers who seek degrees in pertinent fields. Step 3: Attend Police Academy Most police officers attend some form of police academy for training. Large police departments send recruits to their own police academies. Smaller precincts may send new hires to attend larger academies as well. Academy programs typically last 3-4 months and combine classroom and hands-on, physical training. Academies include common classroom instruction in: Civil rights State and local laws Incident reporting Crime investigation Constitutional law Criminal psych Police academy training prepares prospective police officers for active duty. Therefore, recruits also gain supervised experience in facing real-life situations. Police academy teaches students common requirements such as: Patrol, risk assessment and subject apprehension Accident and emergency response First-aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation Firearm use Self-defense Traffic command Step 4: Pass Applicable Examinations In order to gain a position on the police force, candidates are required to pass various examinations to ensure competence. Candidates must pass written exams, which may be administered through a police academy. Most divisions also administer physical tests of strength, vision, hearing and agility. Some units conduct psychiatric or background interviews to assess a recruit's personal characteristics and overall suitability for a career in law enforcement. Most candidates will need to pass drug and lie detector tests as well.
