📌 What Happened?
The U.S. government has suspended certain immigration applications due to security and fraud concerns related to programs introduced under the Biden administration. This "administrative pause" mainly affects applicants under programs like Uniting for Ukraine and the CHNV program (which allows Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Venezuelan migrants to enter with a U.S. sponsor). Additionally, Temporary Protected Status (TPS) applications for nationals of crisis-affected countries like Haiti, Ukraine, and Venezuela have been halted. This also includes some asylum applications and Green Cards.
📌 How long will the suspension last?
There is no clear timeline for when applications will resume, leaving thousands of migrants in uncertainty.
📌 Who is most affected?
Migrants applying for TPS. Families waiting for asylum decisions. Green Card applicants.
