The immigration plan with a sponsor ends soon

Meanwhile, the Biden administration will not extend the two-year program that allows migrants from certain countries to enter the United States if they arrive by plane and have a sponsor. This two-year period was intended to allow people to apply for humanitarian aid or other immigration benefits for which they may be eligible, as well as work and contribute to the economy.declared Naree Ketudat, spokesperson for National Security.

The program began in 2022 with Venezuelans, in an effort to offer an alternative legal route to migrants who were arriving in increasing numbers at the southern border of the United States while the government simultaneously combated illegal crossings, detailed the Ap information agency.

It was later extended to Cubans, Haitians and Nicaraguans, the nationalities of migrants who most frequently attempt to cross the border.

The measure allowed them to live and work in the country for two years while they tried to obtain another legal status.
