Trump Administration Aims to Sharply Restrict New Green Cards for Those on Public Aid
Those applying for a green card who have already been getting hand outs from Uncle Sam are in for
an unpleasant surprise....they may not get their card.
"Federal law has always required those seeking green cards to prove they will not be a burden and has taken into consideration the acceptance of cash benefits. But the government has never before considered the use of other public benefits, like assistance for food.
Now, the new regulation — announced on the Department of Homeland Security website — will require that immigration caseworkers consider the use of public benefits to be “heavily weighed negative factors” for those who are applying to remain legally in the country on a permanent basis. Those who are deemed likely to become dependent on government assistance will probably be denied."
The gravy train is slowing down to a stop for those people who are not citizens but who are sponging off
US taxpayers. What took so long?
