USCIS announced that applicants, petitioners, requestors, and beneficiaries may now call the USCIS Contact Center (800-375-5283) to reschedule their biometric services appointments scheduled at a USCIS ASC.

USCIS Temporarily Suspends Biometrics Requirement for Certain Form I-539 Applicants

Posted on May 21, 2021 by sethlerner1964

USCIS announced that, effective Monday, May 17, 2021, it will temporarily suspend the biometrics submission requirement for certain applicants filing Form I-539 to request an extension of stay in, or change of status to, H-4, L-2, and E nonimmigrant status. The suspension will apply through May 17, 2023. Do you have ideas about other changes USCIS could make to help improve access to immigration benefits? Use our template to easily submit your proposals in response to USCIS’s request for input on how the agency can reduce administrative and other barriers and burdens within its regulations and policies. Comments are due by May 19.

BIA Issues good case

Posted on August 5, 2015 by Brian D. Lerner, Immigration Lawyer & Deportation Attorney

Matter of D-M-C-P, 26 I&N Dec. 644 (BIA 2015)

(1) Neither an Immigration Judge nor the Board of Immigration Appeals has jurisdiction to consider whether asylum-only proceedings were improvidently instituted pursuant to a referral under the Visa Waiver Program.

(2) It is improper to deem an application for relief abandoned based on the applicant’s failure to comply with the biometrics filing requirement where the record does not reflect that the applicant received notification advisories concerning that requirement, was given a deadline for submitting the biometrics, and was advised of the consequences of his or her failure to comply.
