  Premium   Download PDF Now (23 pages)
Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date Feb. 27, 2019
Release Date Feb. 27, 2019
Report No. GAO-19-376T
Summary:

This testimony discusses the Department of Homeland Security's management of immigration in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, a U.S. territory. Foreign workers make up a large part of the workforce. Proposed legislation could let some longer-term foreign workers and others gain CNMI residence status.

DHS issues permits that let qualified workers stay for up to a year. The numerical limits for these permits have changed several times.

In 2019, DHS removed the Philippines from a list of nations whose residents can obtain H-2B work permits. Mariana officials said this will make it difficult to find construction workers.
