Date/Time: Thursday, October 13, 2022 at 5:00am
Description: On September 8, 2022, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published its final Public Charge rule, to go into effect on December 23, 2022. The rule strengthens public charge policies that had been in effect since March 2021, which describes which persons may be determined a "public charge" and thereby denied admission or lawful permanent residency to the U.S. In this webinar, API-GBV's Director of Policy, Grace Huang, will walk participants through the provisions under the public charge final rule; the circumstances under which survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, or trafficking may be exempt; and the supports and options available to immigrants survivors and their families.
