Little Ernesto and his siblings would have to wait until eventually the grave situation would be noticed by neighbors, meanwhile child protective services inundated by a growing case load would miss opportunities to intervene.

To request deferred action, an individual must file Form I-821D and Form I-765 for employment authorization. This process has been brought forward by the administration as a result of the recognition for undocumented immigrants.

It is because of this that I am applying for the Community Financial Fund Grant because if I were to receive the maximum amount it would take a big financial burden off my shoulders but I would also be able to concentrate more on my studies instead of working myself tirelessly in order to afford my DACA renewal and still help my mother…
