Clients & Community

On February 25, 2025, the Trump administration announced it would require some undocumented immigrants to register with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). On March 7, it shared a new rule explaining how the system will work. This new rule will start on April 11. The announcement raises many concerns, especially because similar registration processes have been used in the past to target vulnerable groups.


This document provides information for community members about the registration process. This is not legal advice, and we encourage undocumented community members to consult with a trusted immigration attorney to understand the risks registration might present for them.
