| Sammanfattning: | Many developed countries are populated by children taken by their parents irregularly (Schmid, 2013). The United States has focused its concerns on young people taken as children under these conditions and who have spent most of their lives in the country (Abrego, 2006). In response to this phenomenon, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program was implemented in 2012 as an executive action by former President Barack Obama. It offers relief from deportation proceedings. It offers the possibility of obtaining work permits and access to higher education for unauthorized, qualified migrants who entered the US as children. It does not offer a path to citizenship or other legal status. To apply for it, one must have arrived in the US before the age of 16, not have committed crimes, and be enrolled in school or have been enrolled in school, among other requirements (USCIS, 2021). The largest number of beneficiaries are residents of Arizona, Texas, Nevada, and California (Batalova et al., 2014). In September 2017, the program was announced to be discontinued by President Trump, at which point new applications were no longer accepted. |
