Afghans who recently arrived in US get temporary legal status from Biden administration
- The Biden administration has granted temporary legal status to around 14,600 Afghan migrants who have been residing in the country for over a year. This decision, announced by the Department of Homeland Security, applies to Afghans who arrived between March 15, 2022, and September 20, 2023.
- However, this temporary protected status does not provide these Afghans with a long-term right to stay or a path to citizenship. The administration's move comes after giving temporary protected status to nearly 500,000 Venezuelans in the country.
- Additionally, the Department of Homeland Security has extended protected status to a smaller group of about 3,100 Afghans. It's important to note that the recent decision does not affect Afghans who arrived during the 2021 airlift out of Kabul or those who have special immigrant visas.
