The Biden administration will start deporting Venezuelans who crossed into the country illegally, officials said Thursday, in its latest attempt to stem the pace of migrants fleeing the humanitarian crisis in that country.
Over the past year, the Biden administration has created new policies to provide legal pathways for Venezuelans fleeing the government of President Nicolás Maduro. Hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans have entered the United States in recent years, many seeking asylum. The Biden administration recently extended humanitarian protections to nearly 500,000 who arrived to the United States between March 2021 and July 31 of this year.
The rules of filing asylum petitions within one year of entry is required and there is no filing fee for the I 589 application or the Work Permit Application for the first year.
The 5 Bases for Asylum are:
Race, Religion, Nationality, Political Opinion , and Gender based.
One must prove that one or one's family has been persecuted in their own country in the past and because of that persecution one has a "credible fear" of returning to their home country.
The attacks or threats of violence must have been committed by government officials or criminal gangs members that the government cannot or will not protect against.
New York Times 10/16/23 Lawyers representing thousands of families separated at the southern border during a Trump administration crackdown have reached a settlement with the federal government that enables the migrants to remain in the United States and apply for asylum, putting them on the path to permanent legal residency.Oct. 16, 2023. If approved by the judge overseeing the case, the settlement in the class action would grant the families permission to live and work legally in the United States while they await a decision on their asylum claims. Parents and children who have been separated and are already in the United States will be able to petition to bring immediate family members from their home countries. “This agreement will facilitate the reunification of separated families and provide them with critical services to aid in their recovery,” the attorney general, Merrick B. Garland, said in a statement.
