On March 12, 2025, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued an interim final rule (IFR) implementing an Alien Registration requirement. This rule, effective April 11, 2025, is based on President Trump’s January 20, 2025, Executive Order titled, “Protecting the American People Against Invasion.” Section 7 of this Executive Order titled, “Identification of Unregistered Illegal Aliens,” instructs that “unregistered” aliens must comply with a 1952 statute that mandates the registration and fingerprinting of certain unregistered foreign nationals in the United States. This webinar provides guidance on navigating these new requirements.
