U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has just updated guidance for family-based immigrant visas, effective May 22, 2024. The USCIS Policy Manual has been updated regarding family-based immigrant visa petitions (Forms I-130 and I-360). The update clarifies how USCIS handles situations where the beneficiary’s preferred method for obtaining a visa (consular processing or adjustment of status) is unclear, has changed, or needs correction.
USCIS explained that the update clarifies procedures for family-based immigration petitions “to promote more efficient processing where the beneficiary’s preference for consular processing or adjustment of status is unclear or has changed or a correction is needed.”
If you need help navigating the immigration journey or understanding the USCIS updates and ensuring your family based petition is accurately completed, contact an experienced family immigration attorney to provide guidance tailored to your specific situation, help you avoid common pitfalls and ensure your petition is processed smoothly.
