The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has announced significant changes to the adjustment of status process for green card applicants. Under the new policy, individuals on temporary visas will be required to return to their home countries to apply for green cards, a shift that could jeopardize pending adjustment cases. The Trump administration has made strides to tighten green card rules, prompting concerns among immigration experts and foreign nationals. This directive aims to close loopholes that previously allowed migrants to remain in the US while awaiting their green cards. As a result, many applicants are now faced with the decision to leave the US and apply from abroad, raising questions about the impact on their applications and future residency.
