New USCIS Policy Could Change How U Visa Holders Adjust Status!!!

Must watch full video for details and legal analysis: https://youtu.be/k-SUsAbtEYU

On November 2, 2025, USCIS released Policy Alert, confirming that a grant of U nonimmigrant status inside the U.S. is not an “admission” for purposes of adjustment under INA §245(a).

This update implements the Supreme Court’s decision in Sanchez v. Mayorkas (2021) and clarifies that U visa holders must seek adjustment under INA §245(m), not §245(a), unless they were admitted at a port of entry.

In this video, immigration attorney Muhammad Amir from Amir Law Firm explains

✅the key legal distinctions between §§245(a) and 245(m),
✅what this means for U visa holders, and
✅how USCIS adjudications will change moving forward.

“Asylum Fee Blocked: What the Court’s Injunction Really Means”

Must watch full video for details and legal analysis: https://youtu.be/y7H9JQStZe4

On October 30, 2025, Judge Stephanie Gallagher issued a preliminary injunction halting the government’s rollout of the $100 annual asylum fee. The court found USCIS and EOIR acted arbitrarily by issuing conflicting policies, leaving asylum seekers confused and at risk of deportation.

In this video, immigration attorney Muhammad Amir from Amir Law Firm explains:

✅what the injunction means,
✅who it protects, and
✅what comes next.

Current Status:

• Annual asylum fee collection paused nationwide.
• Payment is not required during the injunction.
• Agencies expected to issue coordinated guidance before resuming fees.

Key Takeaway:

Asylum seekers do not need to pay the $100 annual fee right now, but the pause is temporary. Stay tuned for updates once new federal guidance is released.
