USCIS memo may restrict green card eligibility via adjustment of status

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has issued a new policy memo that could significantly restrict the ability of individuals to obtain green cards within the United States. This memo suggests that applying for adjustment of status, a common pathway to permanent residency, will be treated as a discretionary act rather than a standard procedure. Immigration attorneys are questioning the memo's legality and anticipate legal challenges, as it may lead to longer processing times and potentially reduce overall legal immigration. AI
