The U.S. Afghan Evacuation Program, known as ‘Afghan EVAC,’ has announced the launch of a new initiative aimed at reuniting thousands of Afghan families separated for nearly five years. Officials from the organization say that many of these families remain separated due to the U.S. government’s negligence and the consequences following the withdrawal of American forces in 2021.<\/p>\n
According to the organization, the new program is designed to facilitate the reunification of immediate family members and provides applicants with a dedicated online form. This form, known as ‘DS-4317,’ is intended for Afghans currently living in the United States under temporary resettlement who wish to bring close family members to join them.<\/p>\n
Based on the information released, this system explains available immigration options considering residency status, method of entry into the U.S., and individuals’ legal circumstances, offering necessary guidance. Afghan EVAC officials have described the launch of this process as an important step toward alleviating the humanitarian challenges faced by families separated after the 2021 developments and the Taliban’s return to power.<\/p>\n
The organization emphasizes that the primary goal of the program is to fulfill the United States’ commitments to its Afghan allies and to provide the means for these families to reunite\u2014families that have lived for years in uncertainty and worry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
