On January 27, 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled to allow The Department of Homeland Security to implement the new public charge rule.

The rule also sets a high bar for demonstrating that applicants for legal permanent residence (green cards) and family-based visas will not be dependent on public assistance.
