Prosecutorial discretion is the opportunity that the Department of Homeland Security has to decide whether or not they want to continue prosecuting your case. If you are in deportation proceedings, that means the Department of Homeland Security initially decided to prosecute you and get you out of this country.

Under their new provisions of prosecutorial discretion, they have the power to decide whether they want to take that application back and allow you to stay in the United States, Or allow you to seek different remedies that may be eligible for you without the deportation sword hanging above your head.

It is very important to see whether you qualify for prosecutorial discretion while this program is still available.
