The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) launched Operation PARRIS (Post-Admission Revalidation of Refugees and Strengthening Integrity) in Minnesota, an initiative focused on re-examining thousands of refugee cases awaiting a response to their applications for residency in the United States.
The federal government’s approach is to analyze in detail any suspicious history of foreigners linked to possible cases of fraud and other crimes that serve as an excuse to end their stay in the country.
This way, The Immigration and Customs Enforcement Service (ICE) would be in charge of reviewing the status of nearly 5,600 refugees established in Minnesota, who have not yet obtained legal permanent residence (green card).
