   1. Obama's action is a policy and not a law. It is not an Act.
   
   2. Obama's policy does not provide immigration status. It only prevents qualifying individuals from being deported and may provide them with a work permit.
   
   3. There are serious risks in applying as it can be terminated as early as January 2013 if Mr. Romney is elected President.
