I’d like to explain a bit of the reason why there’s so many immigrants coming in:

This happens every time there’s some amnesty in place. There was for Cubans, then Haitians, then Venezuelans and now Ukrainians. Those that profit from the movement of people throughout the Central American borders, start spreading the rumours that EVERYONE can claim asylum due to the system being overwhelmed enough. This is how you end up with all these people wandering until they have their date at court.

In the meantime, they get to move around and work under the table. Those from countries with amnesty, will most probably get residency eventually. Those that are not, would have worked and save enough money to bring back when deported.
