The Migrant Registration Framework (MRF) has been fast-tracked and will officially begin on January 26, instead of January 30 as previously announced.
At a post-Cabinet meeting on January 22, Homeland Security Minister Roger Alexander had announced that registration for all illegal migrants through the MRF would begin on January 30.
But the ministry's media statement on January 23 announced the new timeline, adding that applicants will also be required to provide fingerprints.
