BREAKING | “HUD Cracks Down on Government-Backed Mortgages for Illegal Immigrants”

WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Scott Turner today announced the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) revised its residency requirements and removed access for illegal aliens to FHA-insured mortgages by eliminating in its entirety the “non-permanent residents” category from the Title I and Title II programs. This update of FHA policy ensures illegal aliens and non-permanent residents in the U.S. cannot access FHA-insured financing and refocuses the use of taxpayers’ resources and federal housing programs to benefit U.S. citizens.

The father served as a translator for US troops, and is now in the US as a political refugee because of it. They were living in an apartment run by a slumlord - cockroach and bedbug infested dumpster fire. A local refugee group was directing immigrants there because the landlord was willing to house them. (We're also now trying to help clean up the dumpster fire.) But the couple has been living on basically nothing, and had saved up most of what they need for a down payment on a home. They were planning to purchase one in the fall (I believe October was the target purchase date).

The term cruelty fits Trump very well.

“HUD’s revised residency requirements for FHA-backed loans, which take effect on May 25, will apply to Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipients as well as individuals who are pending asylum or pending refugee status, according to HUD, since there is no guarantee that their residency status will be renewed under the current administration.
