Clarification of Discretionary Employment Authorization for Certain Aliens

28 organizations filed 29 public comments on Clarification of Discretionary Employment Authorization for Certain Aliens, at the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. The comment window closed 21d ago.

Abstract

The Department of Homeland Security proposes to limit and clarify eligibility for discretionary employment authorization for aliens paroled into the United States temporarily for urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit, who have been granted deferred action, or against whom a final order of removal exists and who are temporarily released from custody on an order of supervision. DHS further proposes to specify that aliens applying for employment authorization who admit to committing, have been arrested for, or have been convicted of certain criminal acts do not warrant a favorable exercise of discretion unless there are significant countervailing public interests, which may include assisting law enforcement activity in the United States.
