USCIS has canceled a marriage-based Adjustment of Status interview for a couple, citing a new policy related to the U.S. citizen petitioner’s country of birth. The interview, originally scheduled for mid-January, was called off upon check-in at a USCIS field office in the South, leaving the case on hold without any interview being conducted.
Key Details:
- The I-485 application was filed in August, and the interview was scheduled for January.
- The cancellation was based solely on the petitioner’s country of birth, which is among those affected by the new policy.
- The petitioner is a naturalized U.S. citizen, while the beneficiary is not from a listed country.
- Legal experts have differing opinions on the application of the policy, with some suggesting a potential misapplication in this case.
