Some 584,885 foreigners overstayed their visas in fiscal year 2020, according to a newly released report from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
DHS released the report this week but made it appear as if it were released in September 2021 after being pressured by Republican senators for defying the law and not releasing it.
The Entry-Exit Overstay Report (pdf) found 584,885 foreign nationals who were legally allowed to enter the United States for a period of time but failed to abide by their visas and stayed longer than permitted.
