    Thank You Everyone

    Hey all. I've been a lurker since nov 2012. Just wanted to thank u all for contributing to this forum, espacially for those that read in silence. Just wanted to come out of lurk-mode and say how grateful I am for the guidance of this site. Many of us came to America not knowing what our lives would embark on because we came at such a young age. It sucks but I'm just grateful for a change in "status" (not legal status but being able to have an ID and work legally is still great) and I hope it gets better sooner than later. I applied for DACA Jan 29 2013 and received my Approval notice (April 29) and Work permit today (5/2). I really hope to one day travel abroad but I'm thankful for this first step. PATIENCE IS EVERYTHING WITH THIS PROCESS!!! I kinda forgot about it and randomly checked my status online to see a message saying my approved items are in the mail. I was shocked with happiness and received it the next day in the mail. God is great and his time will forever be the best time. Just in time for my new job!! Hope all of us get approved and get what you deserve. Please continue what you guys are doing on this site and your blessings will continue to pour in. Later guys...

    Thank You Everyone

    Besides... Imagine all those ppl that are here that weren't even eligible to fill for DACA (age, no proof, convicted felony, etc)... So Be grateful that you were one of those that qualified!

    Thank You Everyone

    Do you pray?? May sound really cliche but I am a stronggggg believer that God only gives us what we can handle. No man (or government) is bigger than him. Instead of worrying, have faith. I mailed my DACA, prayed on it, fasted (not eating to focus on prayer and faith), then left it alone. Checked my DACA status online 4 times in 3 months. That was all the energy I gave it... Nothing more because I have been living and waiting for 25 years so I knew I could continue that patience for a few more months. You can't allow this to break you. Good luck and try to stay busy... I read a lot so that also distracted me. Your time will come....

    How Do I Do A Service Request?

    Ok so i just called again and they told me that i couldnt do a service request for form I821D because it was still within the processing time. But they did do a service request for form I765. That I should get a response by May 17. Hopefully its good news and not just a "keep waiting" letter. Keeping my fingers crossed

    Under Pressure

    Getting approved and finally be able to get a job legally, get a driver's license and be able to pay for your schooling, as well as be an asset to your household. No better feeling than that, to finally be able to change your life. That being said, I don't think there's reasons for one to feel pressured I say that not knowing your circumstances. After those two years are up, you can renew your permit. Still in the air, there's a great possibility that an immigration reform is going to get approved. Of course having been approved gives you the opportunity to get a job and save money, if you're like me who doesn't yet have a college degree, my goal is to eventually save enough money to pay for schooling. I don't share the same feeling of pressure that you do, I feel like one needs to have a plan to say the least, and certainly prioritize.

    No, the Passport isn't necessary. Don't get a new one. Your Birth Certificate with your EAD is fine, no translation needed, but you can take it also, just in case. The only reason I mentioned the Passport was because some people claim to have been asked for it, but the SSA guidelines clearly state that you can use either a Passport or Birth Certificate, you just have to know that beforehand in case they want to tell you otherwise. https://secure.ssa.gov/apps10/poms.nsf/lnx/0110210020
