"The Path2Papers, a nonprofit project at Cornell University Law School, in April received $1.5 million from the Crankstart Foundation to offer free consultations to DACA recipients in the San Francisco area who want to see if they have work visa options. The nonprofit has done more than 400 consultations, finding that more than half of DACA recipients it worked with may be eligible for a work visa. “While that is a great start, it is a drop in the bucket compared to the over 500,000 DACA holders in the U.S.,” Stephen Yale-Loehr, Path2Papers’ co-founder and an immigration law professor at Cornell, wrote in an email. According to Yale-Loehr, courts consider immigration cases some of the most complex to adjudicate. The American Immigration Lawyers Association has about 16,000 members, a small slice of the 1.3 million lawyers practicing in all fields nationally, according to the American Bar Association."
