USCIS has announced new requirements for immigration applicants, including the submission of social media handles, a parent’s Social Security number, and an employer’s tax ID number. This change aims to enhance background checks and security measures for various immigration processes.

Key Details:

New requirements include social media handles and additional personal information.
Applicants must provide their mother’s Social Security number and their employer’s tax ID.
A recent CRS report indicates that many asylum cases are not resolved, leading to concerns about the system’s efficiency.
The changes are effective immediately for all new applications submitted to USCIS.

These new requirements may raise privacy concerns among applicants, as they are now expected to disclose more personal information than before. Need help with your immigration case? Visit QuickFiling.us for professional immigration services.
