Officials in Texas are watching the Supreme Court today as the court is scheduled to discuss DACA and President Trump's decision to end the program. The Obama era mandate has been in the courts ever since the Trump White House announced it would end the program in 2017. The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals is an Obama executive order giving temporary protections to certain immigrants brought illegally to the U.S. as children. The Supreme Court will take a look at the issue today after lower courts have ruled the Trump administration doesn't have the authority to end the program.
Meanwhile,immigration application fees are going up. The new fees will be posted starting this Thursday at FederalRegister-dot-Gov. The application fee to bring a spouse to the U.S. will go up to more than 12-hundred dollars. The DACA renewal fee goes to two-hundred-seventy-five-dollars. These and several other new fees take effect over the course of the next several months.
