Undocumented immigrants would have until October 5 to fill out the papers that allow them to live and work legally in the United States. That is, fill out DACA applications and renewals, reported The New York Times.

Thousands of Dreamers have arrived in front of the paperwork offices, permits and renewals, who want to renew their Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or better known as DACA, permit. What does that executive action called DACA that was created by Barack Obama in 2012 provide you? It allows migrants, who came as children to the United States, to obtain work permits, and thus not be deported. This action was renewable every two years for anyone who joined the DACA, details The New York Times.

However, in light of President Donald Trump's new immigration policies and measures, on September 5, it was announced that the program will be dissolved. Therefore, today October 5 the offices are full of people, because it was reported that it will be the last day that they will accept applications to process or renew the DACA, the newspaper said.

Given the abrupt decision by the Trump administration to cancel the executive action, explains The New York Times, that many charities have helped these young people with legal guidance. And even some organizations have done it economically. The cost to renew the DACA permit is $ 495. The note from the New York newspaper explains that after the announcement of the elimination of DACA, the increase in applications has been greater. Of two or three applications that were filled weekly, about 45 have been carried out a day, at least that indicated Resurrection Project, in Chicago to The New York Times
