Immigration Application Denial Rates Jump 37% Under Trump
New data from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the agency that adjudicates immigration applications, show that denials have jumped significantly. The data for the first nine months of Fiscal Year (FY) 2018, which started in October 2017, show that denials for all manner of immigration benefits—travel documents, work permits, green cards, worker petitions, etc.—increased 37 percent since FY 2016.
As Figure 1 shows, the denial rate increased from 8.3 percent to 11.3 percent from FY 2016 to FY 2018. These statistics exclude citizenship applications and include all other immigration forms except for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals and Temporary Protective Status programs, because they provide status to illegal immigrants, and President Trump has tried to cancel them almost completely. But the trends are similar regardless.
Figure 2 details the number of denied applications by year, with the FY 2018 projection based on the first nine months of the year. On an absolute basis, FY 2018 will see more than about 155,000 more denials than FY 2016.
This year has seen the highest denial rate of the years for which data is available since FY 2013 (see Table 1 below). Denial rates increased from FY 2016 to FY 2018 in 19 of the 26 benefits categories for which the information was available for all years. These include the most important benefits categories like those for requesting foreign workers, applying for green cards, and asking for authorization to work or travel.

Florida politicians have fiercely fought to protect the special status given to Cuban immigrants, transforming U.S. government assistance from handouts of powdered milk and cheese to a multibillion dollar entitlement.
Aid to Cuban immigrants — who are granted immediate access to welfare, food stamps and Medicaid — has ballooned from a $1 million federal allocation in 1960 to at least $680 million a year today.
How did Cubans become the only nationality with unfettered access to U.S. government benefits? A combination of compassion, panic and politics.
U.S. Sen. Lawton Chiles of Florida successfully pushed an amendment guaranteeing Cuban immigrants’ eligibility for the most generous welfare payments, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), when Congress created the program in 1972. Chiles, who later became Florida’s governor, argued that the U.S. must protect “the right to benefits of Cuban refugees.”
When the 1980 Mariel Boatlift brought 125,000 Cuban migrants in just six months, overwhelming Florida’s social service agencies, the state’s congressmen responded. They persuaded Congress to authorize $100 million in aid for the refugees and create a special category for Cuban immigrants that made new arrivals eligible for government benefits for decades to come.
Cubans were among the few immigrant groups to dodge welfare reform in the 1990s. While other newcomers were barred from benefits for at least five years, Cubans could collect aid upon arrival.
Cubans “are eligible for all welfare on the same basis as U.S. citizens, as soon as they hit the shore — all welfare,” said Don Barnett of the Center for Immigration Studies, a Washington-based nonpartisan research group.
Neither Congress nor the Obama administration is publicly discussing whether the aid is still warranted, even as the two countries reconcile.
The intent of the money was to help Cuban refugees flee communist oppression and settle here. But that privileged status now seems unjustifiable as Cubans trek back and forth to Havana to visit, said one of the original architects of the entitlement, former U.S. Sen. Richard Stone of Florida.
In the 1990s welfare reform movement, Miami's members of Congress at the time, Cuban-Americans Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Lincoln Diaz-Balart, helped protect Cubans and other elderly immigrants from losing benefits. Pictured here at a 2006 news conference, Diaz-Balart later retired. Photo by Alan Diaz, Associated Press
Stone, now 87 and living in Maryland, recently told the Sun Sentinel that he supported giving aid to any Cuban who had “the gumption to risk his life to get to America.” But he said welfare was not meant for Cubans to return to the island. “It proves there is not [persecution], if you can go back and forth.”
The travel raises questions about the extraordinary assistance Cubans receive, he said. “I definitely think it needs to be thoroughly investigated.”
Limitless
The U.S. government and charities provided the earliest exiles with clothes, minimal cash and handouts of oatmeal, cheese and canned ham at downtown Miami’s Freedom Tower. It was a humanitarian effort to help those who fled Fidel Castro while waiting for his government to fall. That never happened, and as more refugees reached Florida shores, a Cuban voting bloc grew into a powerhouse.
“There is no question the Cuban lobby in American politics has been pretty strong since the early 1960s,” said Carl Bon Tempo, a professor at the State University of New York at Albany and author of a book on refugees. “They’ve been able to, for a number of reasons, put pressure on local, state and national officials” to preserve and expand aid.
The justification was two-pronged: Florida should not have to shoulder the costs of educating, housing and providing health care to thousands of new immigrants each year. And the U.S., upholding tradition as a sanctuary for the oppressed, supported the refugees.
The aid was intended as a short-term boost for Cubans to resettle, but the cost to U.S. taxpayers has become limitless.
The Sun Sentinel found that Cubans are disproportionately represented among foreign-born recipients of SSI, assistance for disabled people and impoverished seniors. In 2013, one in 10 Cubans was collecting SSI, compared to one in 25 immigrants from all other nations.

Undocumented immigrants pay millions of dollars in state taxes — even in the reddest states
All the money undocumented immigrants pay in state taxes, in one map.
President Donald Trump insists that there’s a national emergency at the “very dangerous southern border.”
He’s called it an “invasion” of undocumented immigrants endangering the lives and livelihoods of hardworking American citizens. And he’s used this narrative to justify taking billions of dollars from the US military to build a border wall.
But when a reporter disputed Trump’s claims earlier this month, Trump only made vague assertions about having “many stats” to back it up.
The president then repeated one of his most outrageous lies: that undocumented immigrants cost US taxpayers a ton of money.
“Billions and billions of dollars a month,” he said. “Billions and billions of dollars. And it’s unnecessary.”
I’ve written before about how false — and pervasive — this myth is. That, in fact, undocumented immigrants contribute billions of dollars in federal taxes each year, and their income taxes and payroll tax dollars are keeping Social Security and Medicare solvent.
But it’s also worth noting that undocumented immigrants are paying billions of dollars in state and local taxes each year — in all 50 states.
While it’s impossible to get the exact numbers because of the limited data available, researchers at the left-leaning Institute on Taxation & Economic Policy estimate that undocumented workers paid a total of $11.7 billion in state and local taxes in 2014, the most recent year of data, according to their 2017 report.
That includes $7 billion in sales taxes and excise taxes, which are those paid on specific items like gas sales and vehicle registrations. Undocumented immigrants, like everyone else, pay for highway repairs, state courts, police, and firefighters. They also paid about $1.1 billion in state income taxes and $3.6 billion in property taxes that year — money that funds public schools, garbage collection, and other city services.

Cubans don’t have to go through an immigration process like the rest of the world; they are granted amnesty carte blanche if they get one foot ashore. The US Coast Guard actively looks for their boats to try and turn them around back to Cuba if they can find them. Cuban immigrants are treated as illegals until the moment they make it ashore.

I mean...the question they were asked in the debate was basically "when you say your plan will cover everyone in the country, do you mean illegal immigrants too?" And they all raised their hands. I don't know how you can watch that and think "they want to ignore American citizens" if they are proposing universal health insurance.
Also right now, today, in America, illegal immigrants are receiving healthcare services. It is against the law for hospitals to ask if someone can afford the care, or if they are here legally. So basically what you have now is illegal immigrants getting no preventative medicine, then going and getting expensive emergency care and not paying the bill, driving up costs for everyone. If they're on a health insurance plan this is all factored into it and we actually save money.

The vast majority of Americans (81%) favor allowing immigrants living illegally in the U.S. "the chance to become U.S. citizens if they meet certain requirements over a period of time."
Also immigration in general is more favored in the U.S. I understand that your only knowledge of America comes from conservative shithole websites but maybe you should expand your political horizons a bit so you understand a foreign country a little bit better.

Remember when all the socialist celebrities said they were going to leave the country if Trump was elected? I wonder if they'll say the same thing again, and still not do it. Also, they all said they were going to go to Canada but they can't work in Canada because of immigration laws.
None of them said they were going to go to Mexico... Funny that

Is that a flat rate or a marginal rate above some number of millions. Too often the reportage fails to make that clear.

All I know is the New Green deal type folks seem to be saying they want to radically up the percentage of the top of the wealthy bunch are paying...so as to pay for programs for illegals and also those who have who want 20 dollars an hour to flip burgers and even those who have sat on welfare for 20 years and never done a damn thing for anybody but hassle others for handouts and free sfuff..

the tax ideas are not that specific, in terms of making illegal people specifically have programs. as for welfare, the reforms of the 1990s limited things far below the 20 years that you cite. don't forget what "welfare" is supposed to mean or supposed to accomplish -- it is a reference to faring well, not in great luxury obviously, but to avoid outright a horror show of suffering in a society that doesn't have to have it.

More to the point about welfare means..
Welfare means taking tax dollars from someone who works their tail off to earn it...and handing it to someone who sits there drinking beer and watching the Price is Right and Judge Judy all morning while the ones who are working all day are at work...earning the money to give to the ones not working..

That 200 to 300 billions the government spends on illegals is welfare by the way..

does it? or does it, in fact, NOT does. a rather jaundiced view there. no doubt some watch too much television though. I can only speculate.

by that view, law enforcement is a form of welfare. as non-sociopathic ideals are held, we can't just cut their necks and dump them in a pit, so there's a maintenance cost.

And that 200-300 Billion the government is paying for immigrants now?
Go ahead and double that when the word spreads about how the Democrats are going to include them all with universal healthcare..
Ok...so then 500-600 Billion just for management and THEN wheres the money for the cost of their head to toe medical cost one from..

Listen, did you see how ridiculously difficult it was to get the Heritage Foundation inspired Affordable Care Act passed, the most heavily compromised gift to medical insurance companies, passed? And how it suffers today due to states rejecting even that sad attempt to have any coverage to the neglected few million people? How likely do you think that your most extreme vision of hell even comes close to happening, really, when eight years of Obama the great dictator couldn't even make a Republican-style plan stick very well?
Now, on medical costs... if you go to the expense of detaining millions of people, they become wards of the state, don't they. That is simply expensive even for the most basic of basic shit. As for deportation, that is already occurring now, and has been ramped up even under Obama's rule, to little notice apparently. The only further action I can see is the wall. Well, built it, fine. I hear the Mexicans are paying for it anyway, so great.

I'm glad you agree with normal people about deportations and building walls, and have decided to vote Republican.
What the Democrat candidates don't seem to understand is that pandering to far left loonies about opening the border and giving out "free" healthcare to incentivize illegal immigration is a terrible policy to try to convince Trump supporters to vote for them.

You are in a weird tixzy about far left loonies opening the border. Chill, not even a remote possibility among the Democratic party, which is on the whole no where near as far left as you've been led to believe.
