Recent changes to the green card application process by the Trump administration are eliciting widespread concern and confusion among immigrants and legal experts. A new policy has imposed stricter requirements, particularly affecting overstayers, applicants for parole, and specific nationalities such as Indians. Critics argue that the changes represent an assault on legal immigration, with many applicants facing increased scrutiny and uncertainty regarding their status. Meanwhile, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has indicated a preference for consular processing over applications from within the U.S., leading to fears and chaos in immigrant communities. As the situation develops, calls for repeal of the new policies are growing, particularly among advocacy groups and immigration attorneys.
