Green Cards Awarded Under Biden Could Be Revoked

The Trump administration has said it is reviewing previously approved green cards and other immigration benefits issued under President Joe Biden, according to a top government official.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) Director Joseph Edlow told One America News that the agency was revisiting past approvals, particularly where fraud could be involved.

In fiscal year 2024, close to 1.4 million immigrants became lawful permanent residents, also known as green card holders, marking a 16 percent increase from the roughly 1.2 million issued in 2023 and a 92 percent rise compared with the approximately 707,000 granted in 2020, according to the Migration Policy Institute.

Republicans have criticized the Biden administration, alleging insufficient vetting and screening measures after border crossings increased under the previous government.

USCIS has not specified which types of immigration benefits are under review, but the term can include lawful permanent residence, temporary visas, asylum or refugee protections, and naturalization applications. Green cards are granted through a range of pathways—including family sponsorship, employment-based programs, humanitarian protections and diversity visas—meaning any re-vetting effort would likely depend on the details of individual cases rather than a single category.
