If you or someone you know has a green card application in process, there's something happening at USCIS worth knowing about.

On May 22, USCIS issued a memo saying it would only grant adjustment of status—the process for applying for a green card without leaving the country—in "extraordinary circumstances." The memo doesn't change who's legally eligible, but it's already having an effect. Attorneys are reporting that interview officers are asking new questions and taking sworn statements.
