First migrants [illegal aliens] cross into US from Mexico using mobile app
NY Post ^ | 01/19/2023

CIUDAD JUAREZ/MEXICO CITY – Migrants on Mexico’s northern border on Wednesday began entering the United States using a mobile app designed to facilitate the process of applying for asylum, although several quickly reported difficulties in using the system.

This month, the Biden administration said it would broaden use of the so-called CBP One app to allow asylum seekers to enter their personal information as a pre-screening step for a U.S. appointment to request asylum.

“I’m really excited, I can’t wait to see my family,” said Alejandra, a Venezuelan migrant who entered El Paso, Texas from the border city of Ciudad Juarez, headed for Florida.

Giovanny Castellanos, another Venezuelan who has been waiting on the Mexican border for months to enter the United States, said he got an appointment quickly.

Excellent!

Let me know when there’s an app where I can get all the freebies paid for by taxpayers! I mean here in my own country, that is.

“asylum”

Mexico is unsafe?

Maybe American tourists and companies should be told to avoid the country.

benefits.gov awaits

“SWHELPER (Social Work Helper)
The Social Work Helper app rolls together a number of the functions of the other apps mentioned here. It’s sort of an all-purpose help finder for those in need. It can assist with locating local free food banks, different types of shelters, mental health resources, crisis help lines and support groups among other services.

“The app also assists in finding sources of low-cost prescriptions, and can even help you quickly register to vote! A number of assistance programs are listed on the free SWHELPER application, which is on both Android and iPhone operating systems.”

Gee, Alejandra couldn’t just get a visa to see her family?

Nope. She’s gotta bypass the whole system and use a phony asylum claim.

Everything they do is a crime. It’s almost like it would be an embarrassment to simply comply with the law.

I downloaded the Catalog of Domestic Assistance a few years ago. It was about 3600 pages back then.

“Inflation Reduction Act heat pump rebate

“If your household income is 80% below your area’s median income, you receive the maximum rebate, covering your new heat pump at 100% up to $8,000. If your household income is 81-150% of your area’s median income, you’ll receive up to 50% of the heat pump’s cost.”

https://www.hvac.com/resources/inflation-reduction-act-heat-pump-rebates/

“The DOE said in November 2022 that funding will be available to each state beginning in spring 2023. Rebates will available to the public later in the year.”

I’m not sure about the 100%, I read elsewhere that it was 98%.

A pox on them. When we’re dead and gone and this country has turned into a third world 💩hole, then they’ll have to deal with whatever comes next…

$500

At most vouchers for a Priceline Express deal price in say Albany/Allentown/Buffalo/suburban New Jersey plus the amount of one-way bus fare.

There are Hispanic and other households that rent out rooms in Metro NYC.
