What is a Public Charge?
Recently, the government has announced it intends to change the rules it uses to determine if someone is a “public charge.” This complicated set of rules can limit the healthcare options of some immigrants and potentially impact their immigration status. To help them make a decision about which government programs are safe to use, CUP worked with NYIC to develop a one-pager about who is affected by “public charge” rules and translated it into six languages: English/Spanish, Chinese, Arabic, French, Korean, and Bengali.
