The State Department will pause immigrant visa processing from 75 countries effective January 21, as it tests safeguards against public charge risks.
Affected nations include Somalia, Haiti, Iran and Eritrea, with other countries named in reporting on the policy.
The policy aligns with DHS considerations on public charge, reflected in prior rulemaking discussions on immigrant admissions.
Louisiana Illuminator, part of States Newsroom, emphasizes editorial independence in its coverage of the policy.
The State Department did not immediately release a complete list of the 75 countries affected.
The policy notes that the freeze will stay in place until assurances are made that new arrivals will not rely on government assistance.
The policy’s timing follows a broader debate over public charge standards and immigration admissions.
The report is attributed to Ariana Figueroa of States Newsroom and mentions Reuters commentary on the policy.
The policy is described as a public charge assessment affecting admissibility and potential adjustments in status.
The report quotes both the policy’s action and the absence of complete country lists at the time of publication.
