Recent policy changes have introduced significant “pause” measures affecting various nationalities and key immigration processes in the United States. These changes impact applicants and employers navigating the immigration system as of October 2023.
Key Details:
- Three country groups are affected, each with different levels of restriction.
- Groups 1 and 2: Broad pauses across major filings including H-1B, I-485, EAD, and N-400.
- Group 3: Limited impact; USCIS processing continues, but consular immigrant visas are paused.
- PERM labor certifications remain unaffected across all groups.
These new policies may complicate the immigration journey for many applicants, requiring careful navigation of the updated processes. Need help with your immigration case? Visit QuickFiling.us for professional immigration services.
