Summary
The Immigrant Witness and Victim Protection Act of 2024 amends immigration law to strengthen protections for immigrant victims of crime and abuse. The bill eliminates annual numerical caps on U visas (for crime victims) and Special Immigrant Juvenile visas, requires the Department of Homeland Security to grant work authorization within 180 days to applicants for these visas and related protections, and prohibits detention of individuals with pending or approved applications for victim-based relief. The bill also establishes a presumption against detention for these applicants and restricts the disclosure of information provided in victim-based applications to law enforcement.
