Haiti - Mexico : Pilot program to regularize the situation of Haitian migrants
A pilot project to "generate alternatives for migratory regularization" has been set up in Mexico in coordination with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the International Organization for Migration (IOM). In the short term this program will benefit some 200 Haitian migrants to regularize their situation in the country, informed the Mexican Federal Government

The two UN agencies have been insisting for months on the urgent need to put in place alternative legal tools to the refuge to relieve the congestion of the Mexican Commission for Refugee Assistance (COMAR), which faced with the large flow of requests is saturated.

Although the Government statement does not say so, the plan would likely consist of offering temporary visas that will allow beneficiaries to work after being put in contact with companies that offer jobs.

However, the scope will be limited, if not broadened quickly, since so far this year Mexico according to official data has received more than 123,000 applications compared to more than 70,000 in 2019. Most of these applications have been submitted in the south of the country and more than 47,000 are from Haitians.

For this reason, since November 2021, the National Institute of Migration (INM) has started offering migrants who were in the south to be transferred to other States in Mexico and to issue them humanitarian visas "in a fast and orderly manner". However, the INM did not indicate how many people benefited from it.
