The administration has approved 99.5 percent of applications of those who have applied for legal status under President Obama’s nondeportation policy for young adults, granting legal status to more than 250,000 formerly illegal immigrants.
Officials said they expect the approval rate to drop as more cases make their way through the system, as it takes longer to deny an application than to approve it. Indeed, the approval rate already has dropped from 99.8 percent just a month ago.
But the high rate leaves others wondering whether the administration is doing all it can to weed out fraud or potentially dangerous illegal immigrants in DACA, or the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, as it’s formally known.
DACA is seen by many as a test-run should Congress pass a broad legalization for most of the 11 million illegal immigrants in the U.S.
99.5% of illegal immigrants get approval for legal status - Washington Times
dhs points to 98.2% in march---as if that's comforting
98% of applicants have no criminal record and have either graduated high school or served in the military?
very impressive
only 1377 formerly illegal aliens out of 268316 applicants busted out
are our undocumented neighbors and friends required to demonstrate no public charge before they are given legal status?
should they be?
