New MAVNI memo: DACA recipients are eligible. - Drew Law Office, pllc.
MAVNI stands for Military Accessions Vital to the National Interest. The program allows persons who have medical or language skills needed by the US Military to enlist even if they are not US citizens. People who have TPS, or Asylum/Refugee status can apply as well as persons in many types of valid non-immigrant status. Now persons who have been granted DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) can also qualify for the program. Keep in mind, Spanish is NOT one of the languages that is needed for the MAVNI program. Persons who serve in the US military can later become US citizens on a special accelerated schedule.
