BREAKING USCIS “news” is not what many people think.

A new USCIS memo and the agency’s Facebook post caused a lot of panic online, with some people claiming that adjustment of status in the U.S. is basically over. That is misleading.

In this short video, Attorney Ismail Shahtakhtinski explains why people should not panic, what this update actually means, and what it does not mean.

And if you want the full explanation, watch the detailed video on our YouTube channel.

⚠️ BREAKING USCIS “NEWS” IS NOT WHAT PEOPLE THINK

A May 21, 2026 USCIS memo and the agency’s Facebook post are being framed like adjustment of status in the U.S. is basically over unless there are “extraordinary circumstances.” That is misleading.

USCIS cannot rewrite the Immigration and Nationality Act by social media post, and this memo does not say that adjustment of status is no longer available inside the United States.

What the memo actually does is remind officers to scrutinize eligibility and discretion more closely in adjustment cases. In plain English, that means looking carefully at issues like fraud or misrepresentation, status violations, unauthorized employment, and facts suggesting the person’s conduct did not match the purpose of the visa or parole they used to enter.

That is not the same as saying adjustment of status is gone.

That is not the same as saying everyone must now leave the U.S. and process abroad.

And it is definitely not the same as Congress changing the law. USCIS cannot change the law by a post on Facebook. Congress must do so.

Is this a tougher tone from USCIS? Yes.

Is it designed to create panic and the impression that America is shutting its doors? It certainly reads that way.

But people should understand the difference between political messaging and an actual change to the law.

If you are in the U.S. and need to change status or apply for a green card through adjustment of status, do not panic based on a headline or a Facebook graphic. Get real advice about your options. Also stay tuned for an upcoming video explainer on this topic from attorney Ismail Shahtakhtinski on our YouTube channel - https://www.youtube.com/
