USCIS has initiated a re-vetting process for older green card approvals, resulting in the revocation of 50 cases out of 2,890 files reviewed. This effort, which began recently, involves the hiring of 40 new personnel dedicated to reassessing previously approved green card petitions.

Key Details:

Total files reviewed: 2,890
Green card approvals revoked: 50
New USCIS hires: 40
Ongoing process affecting older cases

This new scrutiny means that current petitioners may face increased scrutiny, as approvals that were once granted under less stringent review may now be reassessed by officers with higher standards for evidence and documentation.
