New Family Unity Executive Order (June 18, 2024)

Many have heard of the new policy announced by the Biden administration which will target one of the many sad injustices of current immigration system. This action, taken on the basis of his executive authority, may face legal challenges much as the DACA program has, but addresses a very real problem that most Americans want fixed. IBLF will be reviewing the program and attempting to match any clients who could benefit, but, in the meanwhile, you may gather some information from these links published by the government:

Process to Promote the Unity and Stability of Families | USCIS

Fact Sheet: DHS Announces New Process to Promote the Unity and Stability of Families | Homeland Security

Hoja informativa: DHS anuncia un nuevo proceso para promover la unidad y estabilidad de las familias | Homeland Security

There is no immediate urgency — the program won’t be in effect for a while, and the forms, details, and implementation will be delayed by necessary legal steps. It only affects those who have been in the US for over 10 years.

IBLF will be reviewing the program as it develops and possibly issuing new information when available. If you are interested, please drop me a line and I will put you on special mailing list for that.
