Migrants who were temporarily allowed to live in the United States after having entered the country via a Biden-era online appointment app have been told to leave “immediately”, officials said on Monday. It was unclear how many beneficiaries would be affected.

Since January 2023, more than 900,000 people were allowed in the US after using the CBP One app to schedule appointments with immigration officials and apply for asylum. They were generally allowed to remain for two years with authorization to work under a presidential authority called parole while awaiting their cases to be heard.
