8 KNOW YOUR RIGHTS: REVIEW EVERYONE, REGARDLESS OF THEIR STATUS, HAS CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS BEFORE IMMIGRATION AUTHORITIES. Remain Silent Don t respond to the questions of an immigration agent or provide any personal information. Don t Open Your Door If agents come to your home, ask that a search warrant be passed under your door or shown through a window. ICE probably won t have a warrant. Don t Sign Anything In case of detention, don t sign any document. Ask to speak with an attorney and for a hearing in immigration court. Request to speak to your attorney You will not be provided one by ICE, but you have the right to speak to one. We therefore highly recommend that everyone know of or meet with an attorney upon whom they can call in the case of a detention.
9 PROTECTING FAMILIES
10 What is Public Charge? Is this how the government can find out where I am? Does it mean that if my children use healthcare I will be deported? What is it? I think it means I should get off of benefits now. Does it mean that if I use public benefits, I won t qualify for naturalization? Last Saturday, September 22, 2018 DHS released the proposed text of the public charge rule and a press release. Slide content provided by Erin Quinn, Senior Staff Attorney, ILRC
11 About one in four children in the U.S. have at least one immigrant parent Anecdotally, already seeing Marin immigrant families afraid to apply for public benefit programs for which they are eligible
12 Public Charge A test applied only at certain points along the immigration path: When they apply to enter the US and When they apply to become lawful permanent resident (LPR) There is no public charge test when an LPR applies for naturalization. Mainly impacts individuals who hope to immigrate through a family member (and their family members). Slide content provided by Erin Quinn, Senior Staff Attorney, ILRC
13 Public Charge assessing future likelihood Immigration authorities are required by law to consider: age health assets, resources, and financial status family status education and skills affidavit of support other factors may be considered DHS must consider the totality of circumstances Slide content provided by Erin Quinn, Senior Staff Attorney, ILRC
14 Public Charge Exemptions Many immigrants are not subject to public charge: Humanitarian visas are exempt: Refugees and asylees, Special Immigrant Juvenile Status adjustment applicants, T visas (applicants and adjustment), U visa (applicants and adjustment), VAWA selfpetioners, and others. Regulation also proposes to exclude: DACA renewals, and active duty servicemembers + family. U.S. citizens are exempt as well as most legal permanent residents. Benefits used by children not applying for status will not be considered, but of course proposed changes would still effect the well-being of the entire family. Slide content provided by Erin Quinn, Senior Staff Attorney, ILRC and Protecting Immigrant Families: Advancing Our Future
15 Public Charge Current Situation Cash assistance for income maintenance Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) General assistance Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Long term institutionalized care at government expense Nursing home Mental health institution Covered by Medicaid Proposed change to rule Health Programs Non-emergency Medicaid (with limited exceptions for certain disability services related to education) Low Income Subsidy for prescription drug costs under Medicare Part D Nutrition programs Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) Housing assistance Such as Section 8 housing vouchers Slide content provided by Erin Quinn, Senior Staff Attorney, ILRC and Protecting Immigrant Families: Advancing Our Future
16 Public Comments Not yet posted to the Federal Register, but when it is there will be 60 days for public comment. Nothing has changed yet! The released regulation is a draft! Public comments can: Delay the worst parts Change the outcome Document the impact Empower the community Some slide content provided by Erin Quinn, Senior Staff Attorney, ILRC
