Recent reports are raising serious questions and concerns for people applying for green cards from inside the United States 🇺🇸.

In a recent KUOW interview 🎙️, immigration attorney Lisa Seifert discussed how some applicants are now being asked new questions about why they applied for adjustment of status in the U.S. instead of through a consulate abroad.

For many families, workers, and applicants, this uncertainty is creating real fear about what comes next.

Immigration law and policy continue to change quickly ⚖️, which is why understanding your options and getting reliable legal guidance matters more than ever.

Attorney Lisa Seifert accompanied one of her clients to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security building in Tukwila Tuesday morning.

The office is where immigrants go to manage their immigration affairs with the federal government including those seeking permanent legal status by obtaining green cards, while in the country.

We have to support DACA applicants. My colleague Victoria Slatton gets it exactly right in this post.

If you are a DACA applicant who has applied to renew and not heard from USCIS, you are not alone. If you have not yet applied to renew, please do so, even if you have a year or more left on your status.

The current DACA renewal backlog is creating uncertainty and stress for so many people who are simply trying to maintain stability in their lives, work, and families. Delays can have real consequences, and applicants deserve clarity and timely processing.

This post by immigration attorney Victoria Slatton explains the issue clearly and compassionately, and I completely agree with her perspective.

⚖️ Immigration policies may change, but adjustment of status is still part of the law.

📄 Adjustment of status has always involved discretion, and strong preparation matters more than ever.

✨ The key is presenting a well-documented case with clarity, proof, and good moral character.

At Seifert Law, we continue fighting for our clients and guiding them through every step of the process.

New CIS policy re: Adjustment of Status.

As you are aware, USCIS recently released a change in policy limiting the circumstances in which people will be allowed to adjust their status in the United States without having to depart and consular process. We understand that you may have questions about how this new policy might impact your case. Keeping in mind that the policy statement raises a lot of questions that immigration has not attempted to answer or clarify – as a result we will need more information to be able to answer some questions.

What you need to know for now:
Nearly every policy from this administration is designed to create stress, chaos, desperation to discourage people from immigrating to the United States. This policy is a prime example. Do not panic, as to do so would be to play in to the administration’s hands. Try to stay calm and let the process play out;

This new policy is not legal because it violates four separate provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act and the Administrative Procedures Act.

It is contrary to USCIS’ own Policy manual in its historical analysis.
The policy was issued without review by DHS attorneys and with no consultation with the Department of State;

USCIS’ own immigration officers were made aware of the policy change at the same time the public was made aware, and USCIS officers have not been given any information or instructions on implementation of the policy;

This new policy will be challenged almost immediately, likely resulting in a quick court order forbidding USCIS from putting this policy into action;

Even if ultimately successful, the policy will not apply retroactively to cases that were already filed prior to the policy memo. If you have already filed, your case should not be impacted;

Immigration must still process adjustment of status applications;
We are monitoring the situation and will be giving updates as often as we can. Follow this page or our youtube channel for more updates.

We look forward to challenging this memo for our clients who deserve to have their cases approved!!

Before starting your citizenship process, make sure you understand how the laws of both countries could affect your future, travel, and legal status.

💡 Think you have to wait 5 years to apply for citizenship? Not always.

If you received your green card through marriage to a U.S. citizen, you may qualify to apply after 3 years if all requirements are properly met. 🇺🇸

USCIS reviews:
• Your marriage history
• Time living together
• Travel outside the U.S.
• Continuous residence
• Good moral character

Even small inconsistencies can lead to delays or additional questions during the process.

Seifert Law helps clients prepare organized, confident citizenship cases every step of the way. 📄✨
