USCIS has proposed significant revisions to Form AR-11, the change of address form, which could affect over 2.5 million noncitizens annually. The proposed changes require noncitizens, including those on F-1, H-1B, TN, and O-1 visas, to disclose additional information when filing their address changes within 10 days of moving.
Key Details:
- New requirements include disclosure of means-tested public benefits received.
- Employment information, including employer name and address, must be provided.
- School enrollment information, including institution name and address, is also required.
- The proposal is currently open for public comments until July 6, 2023.
USCIS has indicated that this information will be utilized to enforce immigration laws, including the public charge ground of deportation. The changes would also apply to permanent residents, raising concerns among immigration advocates regarding the burden this imposes on noncitizens.
