This webinar for beginner and intermediate-level practitioners will explore the availability of labor-based deferred action, also known as “DALE”, for immigrant survivors. Panelists will discuss DALE requirements, the nuts and bolts of the application process, renewals and extensions, and how immigration practitioners can incorporate screening for labor violations into their practices. The webinar will also use hypotheticals to demonstrate when DALE may be available for survivors of gender-based violence.

Speakers:  

  • Kelly Byrne, Staff Attorney, ASISTA Immigration Assistance 
  • Lynn Damiano Pearson, Immigration Attorney, National Immigration Law Center
  • Cristina Velez, Legal and Policy Director, ASISTA Immigration Assistance

Note: An application for 2 TX MCLE credit hours is pending.
