What is

the Dream

Act?

The Dream Act is a proposal that has been discussed in Congress since 2001. It has been re-introduced every year but unfortunately has never made it for a full vote.

Under the provisions of this bill, those immigrants who came to the United States as children and are part of our communities are eligible for temporary legal status under certain conditions. 

The students need to have been in the US  five years prior to the passage of the legislation and under the age of 16 at the time of entry.

Upon completion of two years of post-secundary education or two years of military service, if the applicant demonstrates good moral character, he or she can apply for permanent residency.

This is the golden opportunity many students hope for.
