The Trump administration issued a new policy that requires most people with temporary U.S. visas or humanitarian parole to leave the country and apply for green cards from their home countries. The policy changes how U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) handles these applications, aiming to return to the original law’s intent.
Key Facts
The new policy directs most temporary visa holders and humanitarian parolees in the U.S. to apply for green cards from outside the country.
USCIS calls in-country "adjustment of status" applications an "extraordinary form of relief" under this directive.
Applicants must now leave the U.S. to complete their green card process, except for extraordinary situations.
Immigration lawyers warn this affects many legal workers and humanitarian parolees, including Afghans and Ukrainians with unsafe home countries.
Critics argue the policy contradicts the Immigration and Nationality Act, which allows adjustment of status from inside the U.S. for those legally admitted.
The policy could lead to family separations and difficulties for U.S. companies that rely on immigrant workers during visa delays.
The administration says it wants to make the immigration system work as originally intended and focus enforcement on criminals.
