New USCIS Memo on Family-Based Petitions

Описание: This update clarifies certain requirements for family-based immigrants by:
• Incorporating existing guidance on general eligibility criteria and filing and documentation requirements for family-based immigrant petitions;
• Explaining how USCIS adjudicate family-based immigrant petitions that are filed with related petitions or multiple petitions;
• Explaining circumstances in which USCIS authorize the U.S. Department of State (DOS) to accept Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative filed directly abroad by a U.S. citizen for an immediate relative, including petitions filed by U.S. military and certain U.S. government personnel stationed or assigned outside the United States, and temporary authorizations for large-scale disruptive events;
• Incorporating existing guidance explaining when USCIS will route an approved petition to the DOS National Visa Center, including circumstances where the beneficiary filed an application to adjust status but USCIS becomes aware of the beneficiary’s ineligibility to adjust;
• Clarifying when USCIS require interviews for family-based immigrant visa petitions; and
• Clarifying that USCIS may issue a Notice to Appear if the alien beneficiary is otherwise removable since a family-based immigrant visa petition does not grant immigration status or relief from removal.
