1. PRM acknowledges receipt of the P-1 referrals and
authorizes processing of the six cases (35 individuals) noted
in reftels. DHS/USCIS has concurred in this approval.
2. PRM has coordinated with OPE Istanbul and DHS/USCIS to
arrange for processing at the earliest possible date,
currently scheduled for the weeks of January 20th for OPE
pre-screening and February 2nd for DHS adjudication. Be
informed that any additional referrals requested for
processing at that time would need to be submitted no later
than OOB in Washington January 13th.
3. As with all referrals, PRM cannot guarantee these
individuals will be approved for resettlement in the United
States. Only DHS/USCIS can make that determination based on
a personal interview. These individuals will also have to
meet other admissibility requirements including a medical
examination and security clearances before they can be
admitted as refugees.
