"On December 23, 2020, the Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”) and the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) (collectively, “the Departments”) published a final rule (“Security Bars rule”), to clarify that the “danger to the security of the United States” standard in the statutory bar to eligibility for asylum and withholding of removal encompasses certain emergency public health concerns and to make certain other changes. That rule was scheduled to take effect on January 22, 2021, but, as of January 21, 2021, the Departments delayed the rule’s effective date for 60 days to March 22, 2021. The Departments subsequently further extended and delayed the rule’s effective date to December 31, 2021. In this rule, the Departments are further extending and delaying the effective date of the Security Bars rule until December 31, 2022. The Departments are soliciting comments both on the extension until December 31, 2022, and whether the effective date of the Security Bars rule should be extended beyond that date. This document is scheduled to be published in the Federal Register on 12/28/2021 and available online at federalregister.gov/d/2021-28016, and on govinfo.gov DATES: Effective date: As of [INSERT DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER], the effective date of the final rule published December 23, 2020, at 85 FR 84160, which was delayed January 25, 2021, at 86 FR 6847, and March 22, 2021, at 86 FR 15069, is further delayed until December 31, 2022."
