The deadline has arrived for DACA recipients who mistakenly received a three-year employment authorization document to return it to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Office.

Earlier this month, federal agents began making house visits to undocumented immigrants who received work papers under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals Program (DACA) with the wrong expiration date. The faulty documents were issued to hundreds of DACA beneficiaries by the Obama administration back in November 2014. Eligible immigrants were supposed to receive two-year work permits, but instead received permits for three years.

After a February court injunction, the government asked all of the 2,600 DACA recipients who were issued documents with the misprint to return them by Thursday, July 30, 2015, reports KRGV.

"Individuals who received these three-year EADs are not being penalized for requesting DACA, they are merely being reissued the correct two-year cards," said The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) in a statement.

The agency also stated that the people in the homes visited by federal agents will not be subjected to questioning or penalties.

However, USCIS warned that those who do not return their three-year permits by July 30 will find their DACA status terminated.

"Home visits are expected to begin as early as Thursday, July 15, in Chicago, Los Angeles and possibly Dallas and Houston, only to some homes of the just over 1,000 individuals for whom this applies," reads the release.

"It's alarming that a mistake by USCIS could cost hundreds of immigrant youth their DACA and their work permits. The administration's mistake could cost immigrant youth jobs, opportunities for school, and driver's licenses," said Cristina Jimenez, managing director of United We Dream, in a statement. "These are people who paid the fees, applied on time, were approved for DACA, and now, because of an error, are at risk of losing their protection from deportation."
