Brief by Shorts91NewsDesk / 05:53am on 22 Mar 2025,Saturday International

In a significant policy shift, the Trump administration has announced the revocation of temporary legal status for approximately 532,000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela. These individuals had previously been granted entry under the CHNV (Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans) parole program initiated during the Biden administration. Effective April 24, this revocation terminates their work permits and protection from deportation. The Department of Homeland Security has provided a 30-day window, starting March 25, for affected migrants to self-deport using the CBP Home smartphone app. Failure to comply may result in arrest and forcible removal.
