What happened
Negotiations between Jorge Rodríguez and Dinorah Figuera entered a third round in mid-October regarding US policy affecting remittances and immigration protection. This coincides with critical deadlines, including October 2, 2026, when the last protected group of Venezuelan TPS holders loses status per USCIS guidance. Furthermore, a Treasury earthquake-relief license lapses on October 23, risking the $6 billion annually sent in remittances from the U.S.

Why it matters
The talks are testing whether progress in Caracas can translate into relief for those dependent on immigration protection in South Florida. The potential loss of the Treasury license and TPS status could severely impact the economic stability of Venezuela and the regional economy.
