USCIS confirms rule changes for legal residents seeking to extend their green cards

USCIS has confirmed changes to the rules for permanent residents seeking to extend or renew their green cards.

The adjustment of status process within the United States remains in effect. However, the agency will apply stricter discretionary evaluations to certain cases.

The changes could affect applicants whose requests undergo that discretionary review, although the supplied report does not specify which cases will face the tighter assessment or when the changes will take effect.
