New Challenges
USCIS Tightens Rules on Marriage-Based Green Cards
USCIS recently announced major changes to the way marriage-based green card petitions are handled. Starting August 2025, officers now have broader authority to deny applications outright, or even refer cases for removal proceedings, without issuing a Request for Evidence (RFE) or Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID). This shift reflects a tougher stance on fraud prevention, but it also means that even genuine couples face a much higher risk if their filings are incomplete or inconsistent.
For families, this raises the stakes dramatically. Every document must be accurate, every explanation must be clear, and every step must be carefully planned. At The Callan Law Firm, P.C., we are committed to guiding you through these new challenges with meticulous preparation and strategic advocacy. By working with us, you can move forward with confidence, knowing your petition is presented in the strongest possible light under the new rules.
