Work Permits are being made Available for Undocumented Workers<\/p>\n

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will be reviewing work permit applications for certain undocumented workers. These work permits will be valid for 2 years and will be eligible for renewal. In order to meet the criteria for review, the undocumented workers must show proof of:
\n\u2022 Continually residing in the US for the last 5 yrs
\n\u2022 having entered the U.S. prior to age 16 and are currently under age 30
\n\u2022 must be in high school, have graduated high school, or received an honorable discharge from the U.S. military
\n\u2022 good moral character
\nThis may sound familiar to the Dream Act which considered requiring undocumented workers to be in college or have a U.S. college degree. The DHS is calling this a \u201cDeferred Action,\u201d recognizing that these individuals are eligible for deportation but that deportation is being deferred.
\nDHS estimates that nearly 800,000 people currently qualify for this program here in the US and of those almost one fourth reside in California. This means 200,000 Californians could be affected.<\/p>\n

The Government will be issuing more details in the ensuing weeks. The initial DHS announcement is available here.
