Certain criminal convictions are a bar to obtaining DACA such as for an aggravated felony, significant misdemeanor or three or more non-significant misdemeanors. There are certain exceptions to the criminal bars such as minor traffic offenses and juvenile delinquency which in reality is not convictions. Expunged convictions are not a bar to DACA.
