Someone to tell me... Can my DACA status protect me if I accidentally got arrested for a misdemeanor that was later dismissed?

DACA doesn’t guarantee protection; even dismissed charges can affect your status. I'd suggest speaking to an immigration attorney though.

A dismissed misdemeanor may not automatically revoke DACA, but it can still raise issues. Consult a lawyer.

You have a 60-day grace period from your layoff date to find a new H-1B sponsor, switch to another visa, or leave the U.S. If your I-94 expires sooner, that shorter date applies.
