Bill overview
The SECURE Act aims to provide a pathway to lawful permanent residence for certain nationals of countries currently designated for temporary protected status (TPS) or who previously held deferred enforced departure (DED) status. It allows individuals who meet specific requirements, including a three-year continuous presence in the U.S. and a clean criminal record, to apply for a green card. The bill also extends benefits like work authorization and advance parole to those pending applications and includes provisions to protect applicants from immigration enforcement and ensure confidentiality of their information.
