On Thursday, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) introduced a new $1,000 immigration fee for migrants granted humanitarian parole.
According to a statement from the department’s public affairs office, the fee is intended to “institute accountability and prevent rampant fraud of the parole system.” It is also aimed at strengthening oversight and deterring misuse of the program.
The fee will be collected by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. It will be charged once parole is granted, not when the application is submitted.
