El 26 de agosto de 2024, el Tribunal de Distrito de los Estados Unidos para el Distrito Este de Texas, en Texas contra el Departamento de Seguridad Nacional
(DHS por sus siglas en inglés), Caso Número 24-cv-306 suspendió administrativamente al Departamento de Seguridad Nacional de conceder la libertad condicional en su lugar bajo el programa PIP Manteniendo Familias Unidas durante 14 días.
En Texas contra el DHS, el Estado de Texas y otros demandantes alegan que el DHS ha aplicado políticas que, en su opinión, infringen las leyes federales de inmigración. En concreto, alegan que las directrices del DHS sobre la aplicación de las leyes de inmigración y los procedimientos de deportación son demasiado indulgentes y no se ajustan a los requisitos legales. Los demandantes sostienen que estas políticas socavan la soberanía estatal y contribuyen a aumentar la inmigración ilegal, lo que, en su opinión, repercute negativamente en la seguridad y los recursos públicos.
Durante los 14 días, USCIS no concederá ninguna solicitud pendiente de documento de viaje en su lugar bajo el programa PIP Manteniendo Familias Unidas; USCIS seguirá aceptando solicitudes de documento de viaje, en su lugar, para ciertos cónyuges no ciudadanos e hijastros de ciudadanos de los Estados Unidos, y continuará para programar citas biométricas y la captura de datos biométricos para los solicitantes.
Tenga en cuenta que la orden de suspensión administrativa del tribunal de distrito no afecta
a ninguna solicitud que haya sido aprobada antes de que se emitiera la orden de suspensión
administrativa el 26 de agosto de 2024.
A partir de ahora, el programa está suspendido durante 14 días, pero dicha suspensión podría prorrogarse mientras el tribunal examina los argumentos en el caso.

It’s no secret that the U.S. immigration system has faced increased scrutiny and change in recent months. From evolving policies to headlines filled with uncertainty, it’s understandable that many individuals are left wondering: Is this still the right time to pursue a future in the United States? The answer is yes—and here’s why. Despite the shifting political landscape, the core structure of U.S. immigration law remains firmly in place. While the process may appear more complex or demanding than it once was, the legal pathways to live, work, and thrive in the United States are still open and accessible to those who take the proper steps. What often gets lost in the conversation is that the United States remains a country built on innovation, creativity, and resilience. It continues to attract global talent, entrepreneurs, artists, and professionals from all walks of life. Whether you are launching a business, advancing your career, or seeking a better life for your family, the United States offers unparalleled opportunities to those who are prepared and determined. Much of what makes the United States a global economic and technological leader today is the direct result of contributions made by immigrants. Nearly half of the current Fortune 500 companies were founded by immigrants or their children. Immigrant entrepreneurs have long been an essential part of America’s economic success story. Some of the largest and most recognizable American companies were founded by immigrants or the children of immigrants. This includes household names such as Apple and Costco. Moderna, the pharmaceutical company and vaccine producer, was founded by a Canadian-born stem cell biologist, Derrick J. Rossi, whose parents themselves emigrated from Malta. These success stories are not outliers; they are part of a broader pattern that reflects the drive, innovation, and resilience that immigrants bring to the country. The United States also offers one of the most dynamic and diverse economies in the world. It is a place where hard work, fresh ideas, and entrepreneurial vision are rewarded. For creative professionals, business leaders, and investors, the United States provides a unique platform to grow, connect, and gain global influence. Its competitive marketplace, access to capital, and culture of innovation create unmatched opportunities for those ready to seize them. While the immigration process requires careful planning, that process is far from impossible. Indeed, having strong legal guidance is one of the most effective advantages an applicant can possess. Immigration law is complex, and each case must be evaluated individually. A clear, strategic plan tailored to your background and goals can significantly improve your chances of success. What may feel like a hurdle at first glance is often navigable with solid preparation and documentation.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has announced the termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for nationals from Honduras, Nicaragua, Nepal, Haiti, and Cameroon. These longstanding protections are set to expire, putting many individuals at risk of deportation.
