NIJC offers representation to Illinois residents seeking to renew their Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) benefits through either our in-house appointments or via our monthly pro bono clinics.
While DACA protection is not currently available for individuals who do not currently have it or whose DACA expired more than one year ago, NIJC offers legal consultations to help individuals understand their rights and what other forms of legal relief may be available.

Who We Can Help
DACA renewal is available only to individuals who currently hold DACA or whose DACA protection expired within the past year.
Renewal clinics are open to those living in Illinois, while in-house appointments are available to those living in Illinois or Indiana.
DACA protection is not currently available for individuals who do not currently have it or whose DACA expired more than one year ago. However, you may schedule a general legal consultation to understand your rights and what other forms of legal relief may be available.
