U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) released updated guidance late Wednesday confirming that applicants no longer need to provide documentation required under the 2019 public charge rule.
Key Points:
Background: The USCIS guidance was expected after Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas issued a statement earlier this week saying the administration would no longer defend the 2019 public charge rule in the multiple court cases challenging it. After the Supreme Court and other federal courts dismissed their appeals, a final court order from the Northern District of Illinois took effect, vacating the rule.
