Despite the “threatening” migration policy of the president of the United States, Donald Trump, which has caused thousands of arrests and deportations of immigrants in just a few weeks since taking office, the Social Security Administration (SSA, in English), continues to provide, since 2024, an economic support of $500 dollars to which immigrants can access under a series of special requirements. 

According to information provided by the institution itself, this stimulus aims to reduce poverty rates in the immigrant population given the current migration situation. 

Similarly, it aims for families accessing this support to be able to cover the payment of various necessary aspects and elements for human well-being such as food, housing, services like electricity, water, among others. 

However, despite the series of accommodations, there are cases where applicants may lose this support if they fail to meet a series of special measures. 

Requirements to apply for the $500 dollar SSA support for immigrants 

As established by the Social Security Administration, people wishing to apply for this stimulus should present the following documents: 

  • Prove their legal residency in the United States through a Visa that enables them to receive the support. 

  • Present the Social Security Number (SSN). 

Despite the few requirements to obtain this support, the SSA also states that all undocumented foreigners will not be able to apply for the $500 dollar check. 

However, according to the same government agency, there are cases where the children of immigrants who have U.S. citizenship or have Green Cards can access this stimulus. 

In addition to all of the above, and according to the SSA, there is a new requirement that may cause applicants to lose their support. As reported, all immigrants who remain outside the United States for 6 consecutive months, will no longer be able to access this stimulus. 

In response, the SSA also determines that to regain the stimulus, they must, as a first step, return to the United States. Subsequently, they must remain for at least a continuous 1 month on American territory. 

If we stop their payments, we will not resume them until they return to the United States and stay for a full calendar month”
