What may happen to an individual's case under Deferred Action?

The correct choice regarding what may happen to an individual's case under Deferred Action is that it may be terminated at any time by the agency. Deferred Action is a form of discretion exercised by immigration authorities, allowing individuals to temporarily defer removal from the United States. This does not provide legal status; rather, it is a temporary measure that can be revoked by the agency at their discretion.

This means that individuals granted Deferred Action do not have guaranteed protection from deportation permanently. If the agency decides for any reason—such as a change in immigration policy, criminal activity, or other factors—it can terminate the Deferred Action status, leading to potential removal proceedings. Therefore, it's critical for individuals to understand that while they may enjoy some level of protection while under Deferred Action, it is not permanent and can be changed at any time.

The other options do not accurately reflect the nature of Deferred Action. There is no guarantee of expediting a case, prioritizing it above others, or barring review by higher authorities. Each aspect reflects different processes or considerations not applicable to Deferred Action specifically.
