Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals is a policy that was implemented by the Obama administration on June 15, 2012, and presently remains in effect. It is not a new law or regulation, but a policy directive given by the executive branch of the United States government that instructs immigration officials to forego prosecution and deportation of certain young undocumented individuals who have graduated from high school or are currently enrolled in an educational institution. An individual must apply for DACA to reap its benefits. To learn
