An EAD issued to a DACA beneficiary will bear category code C33.
Individuals who demonstrate that they meet the guidelines below may request consideration of deferred action for childhood arrivals (DACA) for a period of 2 years, subject to renewal for a period of 2 years, and may be eligible for employment authorization.
Form I-765 is the physical document. Form I-766 is an EAD card, which you can keep in your wallet. Both Form I-766 and I-765 are valid EADs. You actually use Form I-765 to apply for your Form 1-766 card.
DACA temporarily delays the deportation of people without documentation who came to the U.S. as children. Renewal is not automatic. Learn how to keep your DACA status.
Florida provides eligible undocumented residents, including DACA recipients, with access to in-state tuition. Florida does not appear to provide undocumented residents with access to state financial aid and driver licenses or state identification.
One of the main benefits of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program (DACA) is the work permit that comes with it. Your employer cannot discriminate against you because you are working under DACA protection.
There is currently no category for DACA. No Lawful Status (NLS) would be the most appropriate option for a DACA recipient filing their I-765. Form I-821D: Were you initially granted deferred action under DACA by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)?
Your Green Card (Form I-551, Permanent Resident Card) is evidence of your employment authorization. You also do not need to apply for an EAD if you have a nonimmigrant status that authorizes you to work for a specific employer incident to your status (for example, you are an H-1B, L-1B, O, or P nonimmigrant).
You should be aware that you can work as long as your EAD card remains valid. In other words, you can work until the expiration date of your DACA status. You can get your EAD card extended if you successfully renew your DACA status.
