The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) on Wednesday canceled some of the mortgages for illegal migrants, as the department looks to prioritize federal home loans for U.S. citizens.
Illegal migrants are already ineligible for Federal Housing Administration loans, but the new order will give HUD greater enforcement power to ensure that illegal migrants are not somehow getting assistance anyway, the National Review reported.
The order is part of HUD’s and the Department of Homeland Security’s new initiative that seeks to end “wasteful misappropriation” of taxpayer-funded public housing resources that are going to illegal immigrants, per Fox News.
HUD Secretary Scott Turner confirmed the news on social media, stating that his department was prioritizing Americans over those in the country illegally.
“Today, HUD terminated Biden’s taxpayer-backed FHA mortgages for illegal aliens,” Turner posted on X. “American taxpayers will no longer subsidize open borders by offering home loans to those who enter our nation illegally.”
The secretary added that the mortgages should benefit people who “play by the rules” and not illegal migrants.
The order also disqualifies migrants in the country legally, but who are in the U.S. on a temporary basis. It also disqualifies Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals recipients, and people who are pending asylum because there is no guarantee that their residency status will be renewed or accepted, per the National Review.
The cancelation is expected to go into effect on May 25, 2025.

Unless I am missing something, this just seems like pure common sense!!
Why on earth would illegal aliens be given such loans in the first place?
The “banks” better deal with this and NOT have the defaults fall onto the taxpayers! Betting there will now be squatters to deal with…guess it will be easier to find and deport them! Why aren’t any Biden enemies of our country being charged yet? This is outrageous!
Who ever let this lawlessness happen in the first place should go to prison!
Wow! What a unique idea. Prioritize American citizens over those here illegally. Why didn’t the Biden Administration think of that? Oh, that’s right it would not have benefited their objective of ruining this country.
Common sense seems to be returning to America. After years of putting citizens in second or third place, it is about time we are thought of first.
More good news from this terrific administration! It might take awhile, but these people are doing the right things to protect citizens’ rights.
Imagine that! America is returning to WINNING!!! Got Bless President Trump and his administration!!!!
It could not get more curiouser, federal agency ,that is self explanatory , giving mortgages to criminals ,being here illegally makes them that. Who was supposed to pay for those loans?Will any of those who treated the taxpayer money in this criminal manner be prosecuted for theft.
“HUD Cancels Taxpayer Mortgages For Illegal Migrants”I wonder how many relatively sane Democrats are reading this headline for the first time.
Victory Hooray
Right ON
how could this even be am issue? Thank goodness for a review and back track.
Good! Next move is to stop China from buying up our farmland, businesses, and houses that they turn around and rent for section 8. I heard the amount of money they get from our government per house is a lot.
American citizens should be the beneficiaries of any funding opportunities. Not illegals,criminals
Why would we be giving criminals who broke our laws just by how they chose to enter our country, loans to buy homes when we have so many homeless!?!? This definitely sounds like Democrats at work trying to please everyone on the planet besides us!!
They are not “illegal immigrants” or “illegal migrants”. They are Illegal Aliens, period! Stop the PC verbiage. Immigrants and migrants refer to those who are legal. Calling them illegal Immigrants and migrants is akin to calling a burglar an illegal house guest.
Why can’t they start the cancelations right away instead of in may?
Oh, it’s OK that mortgages for illegals are being cut. Democrats are SOOO kind-hearted, that they can pay for OUR US CITIZEN mortgages to reverse just a bit of the economic damage they’ve inflicted….
I bet there is already a lawsuit being filed.
Gee i hope they’re as generous for me as they are for a non-citizen when I buy my place in the coming months… if not guess I have to drive to Arizoba, cross into Mexico, then “identify as an illegal” and recross the border!
It is infuriating to see all of these illegal immigrants getting the same rights and more as citizens and with our tax money!! We cannot even count on the “supreme court” to uphold the Constitution. O’Bama and Biden did all they could to wreck our Democracy.
A American Citizen must give the leader a Social Security number when applying for a mortgage and go thru an extensive financial background check, how do illegal immigrants get these loans.
Send the illegals packing,they are criminals,they broke our laws.There should not be a discussion,unless you are a leftist democRAT,then laws don’t matter.
What is hard to understand is that while DOGE and the President are busy cutting costs and waste for us, we can’t have the tax cuts permanently because “how will it be paid for”. DOGE has shown us a trillion so far in cuts and that, somehow, won’t pay for us to get out from under onerous taxes? THAT makes no sense at all. The government behaves like a huge criminal organization that, once they have their hooks in us, just can’t let us go.
Well Leslie has a point. When they lose their mortgages, they can legally squat in many states and it’s not easy to get them out. The military has delt with this problem for years. If the house is not being lived in by a “real” purchaser a squatter can basically live in the house for free. It’s not unusual for a military family to deploy a couple of years to return and find their house inhabited by squatters and it takes a long and costly legal battle to get them out of their house. I don’t understand how that happens, but it happens. We have some really stupid laws in this country that are in direct support of criminals.
I read the headline and thought to myself “You have GOT to be shipping me!”
Someone actually has common sense? About time!
Yeah baby.
