I'm finding information from other sources that say the contrary. Think best thing is just to read the ruling itself to determine what is considered a public charge and if it will be applied retroactively. Think that's how I'll spend my weekend, researching this fully. 

https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2019/08/14/2019-17142/inadmissibility-on-public-charge-grounds

 

This is from the federal register - it's the rule in it's entirety. I haven't had time to go through it yet, but I definitely will.

My status changed today to Card Was Mailed to You!

Good luck all!

congrats!

 

I had an email to say that my status has changed.  I can't log in to my account because it asks for a code from an authentication app, which I don't have any longer.

I don't know my backup code either.  So I'm going to call them up and ask what my status is.... that or just wait for the mail to come through. :)

I found all I need to know -

 

Pell Grants

Comment: Although several commenters were generally pleased that the proposed rule did not include public education benefits such as Pell Grants or other financial aid, one commenter stated that fear and confusion generated by the rule could deter greater numbers of immigrant youth or children of immigrants eligible for federal and state-funded aid programs from applying to college. A commenter indicated that the proposed rule could effect changes in the U.S. talent pipeline that would ultimately undermine our nation's global competitiveness and regional growth, and indicated that a highly educated workforce spurs economic growth and strengthens state and local economies. The commenter stated that the rule would discourage and may decrease the number of U.S.-citizen youth with non-U.S. citizen parents, lawful permanent residents, and undocumented immigrant youth who are long-term residents of the United States from completing college degrees and pursuing areas of national need Start Printed Page 41391particularly true in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Another commenter requested that DHS explicitly exclude Title IV federal student aid programs from the list of those considered for a public charge determination.

 

 

Response: Pell grants and student aid programs will not be considered in the public charge inadmissibility determination. As previously discussed, DHS's list of public benefits included in the regulation is an exhaustive list and only those benefits listed will be considered in a public charge inadmissibility determination. The focus of the rule is public benefits programs that provide cash assistance for income maintenance or support food nutrition, housing and healthcare with a relatively high overall expenditure. Pell grants and student aid programs are education-based and DHS is not considering them in the public charge inadmissibility determination. DHS decided to not include a list of those benefits that are not considered for public charge purposes because they are too numerous and benefits programs may change over time.

Both the Federal Register as well as USCIS site has it very clearly mentioned about the effective date and on which applications will it be applied. Believe we are safe. Please review

 

 

https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2019/08/14/2019-17142/inadmissibility-on-public-charge-grounds

 

DATES:

This final rule is effective at 12:00 a.m. Eastern Time on October 15, 2019. DHS will apply this rule only to applications and petitions postmarked (or, if applicable, submitted electronically) on or after the effective date. Applications and petitions already pending with USCIS on the effective date of the rule (i.e., were postmarked before the effective date of the rule and were accepted by USCIS) will not be subject to the rule.

 
 
 
This final rule supersedes the 1999 Interim Field Guidance on Deportability and Inadmissibility on Public Charge Grounds and goes into effect at 12:00 a.m. Eastern on Oct. 15, 60 days from the date of publication in the Federal Register. USCIS will apply the public charge inadmissibility final rule only to applications and petitions postmarked (or, if applicable, submitted electronically) on or after the effective date. Applications and petitions already pending with USCIS on the effective date of the rule (postmarked and accepted by USCIS) will be adjudicated based on the 1999 Interim Guidance.

My concern was not that my husband isn’t safe now but in the future - I found that he is - I hope everyone else finds the answers they need as well.

I dont think we are truly safe until we get citizenship at this point. Some of us didn't really want to go that path for various reasons but this has made it abundantly clear that it's the only sure safe way to proceed.

Exactly ! I agree totally. My husband will file for his citizenship after he get his 10 year GC - we had discussed filing before that because he’s eligible next month but he’d rather take care of this process before starting another. It’s just all so scary and I understand why it’s being done and I agree with most of it but I just know there will be families separated over this and that makes me sad.
