Economic Analysis of the New Final Charge Rule Policy
The new final Charge Rule policy seeks to amend the US Department of Homeland
Security by explicating the way the department qualifies the inadmissibility status of an alien’s
application for admission to the U.S as stipulated by the Immigration and Nationality Act under
section 212 (a) 4 of the act. Notably, the alien may be considered a public charge at any time.
The final rule defines various terms that are critical to the determination of public charge
including terms like Public Benefit” and “Public Charge,” because of their definition lack in the
statute. A public charge is any person who may become a burden to the government of the
United States by depending fully on the government for subsistence as depicted by the
institutionalization for extended care at the expense of the government or by receiving public

any disincentives for the past, future or current penalties on public benefits by the people of the

United States or the aliens exempted by the congress from the Inadmissibility on Public Charge
Grounds policy. As such, the policy applies not only to the aliens but also to the people of the
United States regardless of the relationship between the alien and the citizen of the United States.
From this perspective, it is apparent that the policy greatly affects the people of the United
States. Notably, the policy does not apply to the aliens that the department reserves statutory
mandate to waive the policy in that even the DHS exercises such discretions.
Justification of the policy
The Department of Homeland Security explicates the need for considering the receipt of
the alien of the latter designated public advantages. The policy notes that the number of
immigrants is ballooning each day and the government is spe...
