AMENDING EXECUTIVE ORDER 13597
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, and to support the essential functions of the Department of State's Bureau of Consular Affairs, it is hereby ordered as follows:
USCIS recently updated the following form:
Form G-1145, E-Notification of Application/Petition Acceptance. New edition dated 09/26/14. You can also use previous editions.
“USCIS: Civics Test Study Tools,” is now available on the iTunes and Google Play app stores. The app helps you prepare for the civics test during the naturalization interview.
On May 10, 2017, the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) Verification and Document Liaison Committee met with USCIS’ Verification Division, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), and U.S. Department of Justice Immigration and Employee Rights (IER) to respond to questions, provide updates, and address follow-up items. The questions and answers are provided for the benefit of interested stakeholders.
USCIS posted Form G-1256, Declaration for Interpreted USCIS Interview. You can find both the form and its instructions at uscis.gov/g-1256.
USCIS is now proactively publishing Regional Center termination notices as they become available, which is consistent with a commitment to transparency in the EB-5 program. This is an important step in assisting investors, the EB-5 industry, and the public to understand the reasons why a regional center has been terminated and what types of regional center activities may trigger the end of a regional center’s designation.
On occasion, USCIS transfers cases between five service centers in order to balance workload and promote timely processing. This page provides up to date information on any workload transfers that USCIS make. Unless USCIS note otherwise, below is the general information for a workload transfer.
If USCIS transfers your case, USCIS will send you a transfer notice. Your receipt number will not change, and the transfer will not delay the processing of your case.
As of May 25, 2017, USCIS has received a sufficient number of petitions to reach the maximum possible numerical limit (the “cap”) of workers who may be issued CNMI-Only Transitional Worker (CW-1) visas or otherwise provided with CW-1 status for fiscal year (FY) 2018. Although the FY 2018 cap has not been set, it is required by statute to be less than the 12,998 workers set for FY 2017.
