Mark your calendars!


Northeastern's Undocumented Students Project is excited to announce the final two DACA Screening sessions that will be held on the main and El Centro campuses:
Tuesday, May 14, 2013, 12:30 - 3:00 pm, Main Campus, B 119
Thursday, June 13, 2013, 4:30 - 6:30 pm, El Centro Campus
As many of you are probably aware, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) is an immigration application available to certain youth who arrived in the United States before their 16th birthday. Deferred Action is not an immigration status; it is a protection from deportation that allows the recipient to lawfully remain and work in the U.S. If you think you may be eligible for DACA, attend one of these screening sessions to obtain more information about:
Ø  Your eligibility and potential risks in applying
Ø  The application process
Ø  Which documents are required?
Ø  How to obtain your school records, medical records, court documents, arrest reports or other documentation that you may need to submit with your application
Ø  How to file your application pro se (or whether it is advisable for you to get representation)If advisable, referrals to agencies with attorneys on staff, or private attorneys for representation
Registration is required for these events. Register now--space is limited! To register, please contact: Guadalupe Garcia at g-garcia10@neiu.edu or ext 4600.
For questions please contact: Katherine A. Greenslade, (The Undocumented Students Project Coordinator), at k-greenslade@neiu.edu or ext. 4519.
