Honestly, it seems like they black listed the left leaning countries. If it were about welfare, Honduras should be on there.

My parents are from one of these countries. They have been in the US since 2007 and have not applied for citizenship because of poor English. Not eligible for Medicare (never worked in the US) or Medicaid. When they arrived, they paid for medical insurance out of pocket, but became eligible for, and received, Obamacare subsidies (their insurance premiums doubled within a year of the ACA enactment). Their green cards need to be renewed next year, and I am very concerned renewals will be affected next.

I know of someone who immigrated to the U.S. as an older person, with adult children working in the U.S. That individual was receiving home healthcare paid for by U.S. tax dollars. Adult children figured out how to game the system so elderly, deteriorating mom would get free care.

Gaming the system is one of the major reasons why Americans are fed up with unchecked immigration.

Other developed nations demand proof that you will be self sustaining before they allow you to immigrate. Their services are for citizens who've paid into the system, not for freeloaders.

How many people from these countries actually end up on welfare after getting green cards? If the administration is truly worried about that then they left out some pretty obvious suspects.

Yeah - I would seriously prepare for them not staying. Trump has 3 more years left..sorry PP.

The other thing is that if they are not US citizens, I would make crazy sure you are careful of where they go - ICE would love to get them I'm sure with Greencards having 1 year left and English not good.

It appears as if he has begun revoking refugee status of some refugees. This is terrible.

Agree. Refugee drain and phony asylum cases plus chain migration is indeed terrible.

They figured over the 20 year wait, the elders would get old and then move to America for Medicaid, treatments, retirement and free childcare watching.

You are not even eligible for medicare unless you have 5 years of work history. They won't get a pension from social security without 10 years of work history. A 79 year old grandmother cannot just move here and collect all of these government benefits.

Yes they can, and yes the do.
Sponsored elders get healthcare and can sign up for Medicare asap, once granted their green card off the wait list and interview. Look it up! Gravy train.

But really the females get pulled over to raise the grandkids and cook. The males just sit around or find similar friends.

Absolute crap.

It is very difficult to immigrabt from several of the countries on that list if you are not UMC. Nigerian immigrants are more educated than any other group in America. I don't believe that they are more likely to be on welfare.

Yeah and good luck, mags, next time you and your momma need health care services

Just like other countries now. Must prove you are healthy, able, solvent, skilled, educated, employable… to get a visa. Regardless of who or what is “pulling”’you in.

Then why call out these countries specifically? Why not just make this a condition for ALL countries?

Lots of bad agent countries right now, this list should absolutely exist and for good reasons.

Most of central and South America is NOT on the list yet have the longest wait times to pull in.

Seems like mostly anti-western countries

Most of the Caribbean islands are not anti-western countries, but they are on the list.

Have you been to Haiti? It ain’t the Bahamas.

No 79 year old should be allowed to migrate here. Australia doesn’t allow anyone over the age of 45. We need to get inline with other developed nations and stop being the dumping ground of third world countries.

Looks like a handful out of 100. Not a problem and the ones in the list have obvious reasons.

Sad that Jamaica went down the tubes since Covid annihilated its tourism sector, but we saw first hand that it did.
