New Measures in Green Card Applications

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services recently made a significant policy change. This new requirement mandates that most foreigners seeking green cards must apply from outside the United States.

This deviation from the usual practice has stirred concerns among immigration lawyers. They believe it could impact a large number of people. Many individuals routinely apply for green cards while residing in the U.S. on temporary visas.

This move aligns with the administration’s broader efforts to restrict legal migration. The impact of these changes might affect hundreds of thousands each year who navigate the immigration system amid new rules and regulations.
