USCIS Announced New SAVE Initiative to Hold Sponsors Accountable

Have you heard SAVE? SAVE is short for Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements, it is USCIS's new system that will ensure more effective compliance with federal laws and regulation related to financial support of aliens by their sponsors and agency reimbursement. 

USCIS Announced New SAVE Initiative to Hold Sponsors Accountable

In short words - USCIS will now more strictly holding sponsors of aliens legally accountable for the financial responsibilities they willingly accept.

How Does the New SAVE Feature Affect Green Card Applicants?

A couple things you may need to know about:

1) SAVE gives additional information to hold sponsors accountable

SAVE provides information about sponsors to agencies that evaluate public benefits. USCIS will be asking these agencies to share how they use the SAVE sponsorship information in their sponsor assessment and agency reimbursement processes. This additional information will help the agencies learn and determine eligibility and hold sponsors accountable. 

In the future, when the sponsored aliens apply for means-tested public benefits from federal, state, local, or tribal agencies, their eligibility will be evaluated to determine if the sponsor's income and resources could disqualify these aliens. If a sponsored alien already inaccurately received a means-tested public benefit, an agency can also request an reimbursement from the accountable sponsor or seek a court order for repayments.

2) Save will be part of your Public Charge Evaluation: 

The SAVE feature will support agencies as they determine an alien's eligibility for public assistance by ensuring and established sponsorship requirements and proper accountability.
