Hi Peter! I currently have work authorization through DACA and I also have a legal entry. I'm curious if you recommend trying to get h1b or stick with my current status. I do want to find a path to secure a green card but unsure if staying with DACA is my best option.
- onn_h1b1 5y agoIf you gained legal entry in the first place, how did you get DACA after the legal entry?
- villnn 5y agoNo it's the other way around. First I was granted DACA then I did advance parole and obtained a legal entry.
- onn_h1b1 5y agoOk that makes sense now. How did you obtain legal entry after the advanced parole? Which countries are eligible for DACA or is it totally open for people from any country in the world?
- villnn 5y agoSo with advanced parole you are given a permit to leave the country and come back legally thus making a "legal entry". DACA from my knowledge is available to any nationality as long as the requirements are met which I think include being present in the country before 18 birthday. So you should definitely research DACA if you think you're eligible but I'm also not sure if they are still accepting applications...
