Spartan Posted August 28, 2017 Report Posted August 28, 2017 What happened? Further to President Trump's calls earlier this year for more "extreme vetting," USCIS confirmed that beginning October 1, 2017 all green card applicants who are on work visas must be interviewed before their green cards will be approved. What does this mean? While details are still forthcoming, it appears that all foreign nationals on work visas (e.g., H-1B, L-1, O-1, TN, etc.) who have applied on Form I-485 to adjust their status to lawful permanent residence will now be interviewed before their applications are approved and green cards issued. The new policy goes into effect on October 1 and will likely include all pending I-485 green card applications filed by employment-based visa holders. While USCIS has always reserved the right to interview all green card applicants, for many years they have waived the interview requirement for most applicants other than marriage-based green card applicants and some special cases. This change in policy will add more than 100,000 interviews annually and will almost certainly result in more delays in I-485 processing and adjudication wait times. Those employees on work visas and in the green card process who have not yet reached the I-485 stage will not be required to interview until they file the I-485 application. @mettastar @k2s @littlestar @psycopk Quote
