Urging
ICE
to
Publish
Information
on
its
Bond
Payment
Procedures
As
a
part
of
the
“reading
room”
provisions
of
the
Freedom
of
Information
Act
(FOIA),
agencies
are
obligated
to
proactively
publish
certain
records
for
public
inspection
like
policy
statements
and
staff
directives
that
affect
the
public,
among
others.
U.S.
Immigration
and
Customs
Enforcement
(ICE)
has
not
been
complying
with
this
requirement
regarding
its
a
FOIA
request
with
USCIS
seeking
records,
including
guidance
and
data,
about
the
agency’s
implementation
of
humanitarian
parole
and
refugee
processing
for
Afghan
nationals.
This
request
followed
an
earlier
request
filed
by
IRAP
for
procedures
related
to
the
adjudication
of
these
applications.
When
USCIS
failed
to
produce
records
in
response
to
these
requests,
the
Council
filed
a
lawsuit
under
FOIA
to
obtain
those
records.
The
requested
records
will
provide
critical
insight
on
the
significant
delays
Afghans
face
when
applying
for
humanitarian
parole
and
refugee
processing
and
will
assist
advocates
in
helping
Afghan
nationals
seeking
safety.
