Immigration C.E.O. Gives Update on 2022 Amnesty Program

Dr. Gilroy Middleton

Late last year, the Briceño Administration announced that it will be undertaking an amnesty exercise in 2022 to regulate the immigration status of tens of thousands of nationals from Central America and CARICOM. These persons would be processed, and if they satisfy the criteria, offered permanent residency. Immigration C.E.O. Doctor Gilroy Middleton gave details at Thursday’s press conference.
