(d) The Secretary shall take appropriate action to ensure that parole authority under section 212(d)(5) of the INA (8 U.S.C. 1182(d)(5)) is exercised only on a case-by-case basis in accordance with the plain language of the statute, and in all circumstances only when an individual demonstrates urgent humanitarian reasons or a significant public benefit derived from such parole.

Even thou I don't agree with Trump halting all refugees visa but I get taxed without representation i.e I can't do anything about it. There are real world consequences with such action thou which I would like to understand better. I know FB visa gets spillover to EB.

Does Refugee visa comes out of FB quota??
If yes, does that mean down the road 4 month worth of visa will be spillover to back log countries?
If No, is refugee visa a standalone and Prez can decide how many refugee US will accept in given yr? ala Mr O saying 110K but Prez DJT saying just 50k but that too after we come up with proper procedure.

pardon my ignorance on this matter, I am not able to find answer to these questions on the net.

I think it's for DACA not all APs.

Review of all Visa categories including EADs.

Below article states H4 EAD is being considered as well.. but i did not find any language directly stating H4 EAD. I did see generic statements like review all visa categories. If you are able to find any order that talks about H4 EAD, pleaes point that to me.

Yup, I believe that's the case as well, but let's see how the executive order is interpreted by DHS. I'm sure there will be some confusion.

AP's (Formm I-131) will not be approved for DACA anymore. The exiting ones can stay valid till they expire.
