The Biden administration has decided to restart an immigration program that allows migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to enter the United States. This program, which was temporarily suspended earlier this month due to fraud concerns, will now include additional vetting of the financial sponsors based in the U.S.
The Department of Homeland Security conducted an internal review and found no widespread fraud among sponsors. The agency stated that the new procedures for sponsors, along with the existing rigorous vetting of potential beneficiaries, will enhance the integrity of the processes and prevent exploitation of beneficiaries.
