My DACA expired October 2018 and a lawyer is telling me that I am able to renew it. He wants $1500 and the $495 for the application fee. My husband and I dont want to lose that money and we've been reading online that it is not possible to renew your DACA after it expired.

Yes,  you can renew EVEN if your DACA has already expired. As long as you've had DACA in the past, you can still renew, for now.

 

You may want to get this done as soon as possible.

I have the same situation and I know you can renew your status if its only been expired for two years but not after. You still have a chance since its only been a year.

Per USCIS, if your DACA has expired by more than a year, you can renew but need to file the form i821D as if it’s the first time requesting initial request and not the renewal and provide supporting documents as required.  No supporting documents would be required for renewal if your had expired for less than a year.

Yes ! You can file yourself and save the 1500. I’ve renewed mine by myself after the first time.
