Information About the "Public Charge" Rule

The Trump Administration’s version of the public charge rule is permanently blocked, nationwide. This policy was ended by the Biden Administration. As a result, qualifying immigrants can apply for health coverage, SNAP, Section 8, and most other public programs without impact on immigration status or future immigration applications.
