Well, first of all, this isn't the Dream Act. This is DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) Regarding the processing time, there are a few things like background checks and criminal record checks that will affect how long you are going to have to wait.

There are still people from August waiting to hear a decision on their case. On the other hand, there have been people who applied in October that have already been approved.

I suggest you go around this site and learn what daca is. Research your own n know what "this thing" your getting yourself into is.

There's no example of waiting time that can be given to anyone who is applying for the Deferred Action. Everyone got different cases. http://adreamact.com/2012/11/24/1113/. But if your lawyer's pretty optimistic about your case, be patient and let's wait. It seems like your final hearing for deportation possibly get delayed a little? You'll be fine, you got a case going on and you won't be deported before you get your DACA result.
