Biden administration restarts migrant program, boosting fraud checks
Briefly

The Department of Homeland Security is restarting a program allowing 30,000 migrants monthly from four nations to enter the U.S. legally, despite prior suspension due to fraud.
In increased scrutiny, DHS will require sponsors to provide fingerprints and undergo financial and criminal background checks, aiming to enhance fraud detection.
The new procedures strengthen the integrity of the entry process, aimed at preventing exploitation of vulnerable migrants and ensuring accountability for fraudulent activities.
Since the program's inception in 2022, over 500,000 migrants have gained approval to travel from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela.
