DACA decision out today! Supreme Court ruled that the government did not rescind the DACA program in accordance with the Administrative laws the govern. Lots of questions remain. Check out these FAQ that Penn Law created below.

Does Today’s Decision Mean the DACA Can Never End?

No. Today’s decision is limited to how the DHS ended DACA in 2017. Specifically, the Court found that DHS failed to provide a reasonable explanation for ending DACA. How and if DHS chooses to proceed in the future (i.e., retaining DACA, issuing a new memorandum/explanation ending DACA, etc.) remains to be seen.

Did the Supreme Court Make a Decision About Whether DACA is Lawful?

No. The Court did not decide if DACA is lawful or a good policy. The decision is limited to “whether the agency complied with the procedural requirement that it provide a reasoned
explanation for its action.”

Can I submit an application for DACA for the first time?

The Supreme Court’s decision means that DACA should be fully reinstated, allowing for first time DACA requests. With that said, DHS will need to reopen the DACA policy for new requests consistent with today’s decision. However, this may not happen immediately.

I have DACA. Can I renew my DACA?

Yes. If you have been granted DACA before, you should be able to submit an application to renew
DACA.

I have DACA. Can I apply for advance parole that allows me to return to the country after traveling outside it?

The Supreme Court’s conclusion that DACA was terminated unlawfully means that advance parole should be reinstated. DHS will need to reopen the DACA policy for advance parole requests consistent with today’s decision. However, this may not happen immediately.
