Update for DACA Recipients Who Received 3-Year Work Permits

From USCIS: USCIS has accounted for over 99 percent of the approximately 2,600 identified invalid work permits requiring return.

Twenty-two of the approximately 2,600 recipients failed to return their work permits or certify good cause for not doing so by the deadline of July 30, 2015. As a result, those 22 have been terminated from DACA.

The recall only applied to SOME individuals who received a card after the Feb. 16, 2015, court order. There are approximately 108,000 individuals who have valid 3-year DACA work permits and do not need to return them.

If you were affected by the recall and returned your invalid 3-year work permit, use Case Status Online to verify whether USCIS received your work permit.

If… Then Case Status Online will show:
USCIS received your card/certificationThe date we sent you a Confirmation of Compliance Notice
You did not return your invalid work permitThe date we sent you a Termination Notice
Note: If you are still in possession of your invalid 3-year work permit, you must return it.
You are not affected by the recallThe last action on your case

If you returned your card and your DACA and work authorization was terminated, please:
  • Call USCIS Customer Service at 1-800-375-5283, select option 1 for English, then option 8; or
  • Visit your local USCIS field office between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Monday through Friday.
For additional information, please visit our recently updated Quick Facts page. The updated page includes a table to answer common questions regarding the recall.
