How old must I be in order to be considered for deferred action under this process?

You must be under the age of 31 as of June 15, 2012 to be considered for deferred action for childhood arrivals.

If you have never been in removal proceedings, or your proceedings have been terminated before your request for consideration of deferred action for childhood arrivals, you must also be at least 15 years of age or older at the time of filing your request and meet the other guidelines.

If you are in removal proceedings, have a final removal order, or have a voluntary departure order, and are not in immigration detention, you can request consideration of deferred action for childhood arrivals even if you are under the age of 15 at the time of filing your request and meet the other guidelines.
