To date, Congress has not passed, nor has President Biden signed, any of the 12 spending bills needed to keep the government open beyond the end of FY2023 on September 30, 2023. Unless these appropriations bills are passed, or Congress agrees on a temporary continuing resolution (CR), funding for agencies will lapse by midnight (ET) on October 1, 2023, which could result in a shutdown of some government agencies.
General Shutdown Information: If the government agencies close for budgetary reasons, all but “essential” personnel are furloughed and are not allowed to work. The following is an overview of how the immigration-related agencies have operated during prior shutdown periods. During the anticipated 2022 lapse in government funding, DHS also updated its guidance outlining a contingency plan and what activities are considered essential (or exempt.)
