Preserving Integrity in Immigration Benefits Act
Congress Would Require USCIS Review of Certain Approved Immigration Benefits Tied to Trump Security Proclamation
Legislative Progress
Key Points
- Requires U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services to re-check certain immigration benefits that were already approved.
- The re-check covers approvals from January 20, 2021, through the day this bill becomes law, but only for cases tied to Trump’s December 16, 2025 proclamation on limiting entry for security reasons.
- Goal is to confirm the approvals followed the right rules and standards; it could lead to more scrutiny and possible follow-up on some cases.
- Requires an in-person briefing for Congress and a public online report with the results by September 15, 2026.
