USCIS has released new guidance affecting the final step of the employment-based green card process, making it less predictable for foreign nationals and their sponsoring employers. While the eligibility rules remain unchanged, the updated policy indicates that applicants should anticipate a more discretionary and fact-specific review process.
Key Details:
- New guidance applies to all employment-based green card applications.
- Review process will now be more discretionary, focusing on specific facts.
- Eligibility rules for applicants remain unchanged.
- Employers should prepare for potential variability in processing outcomes.
This change may lead to increased uncertainty for both applicants and employers navigating the employment-based green card process. Need help with your immigration case? Visit QuickFiling.us for professional immigration services.
