Important Update: USCIS Removes COVID-19 Vaccination Requirement for Green Card Applicants

Posted on

Starting January 22, 2025, USCIS has removed the COVID-19 vaccination requirement for adjustment of status applicants. Applicants are no longer required to provide proof of vaccination on Form I-693. USCIS will not issue Requests for Evidence (RFEs) or Notices of Intent to Deny (NOIDs) due to missing COVID-19 vaccination documentation, ensuring applications are not delayed or denied for this reason. This policy update aims to streamline the adjustment of status process. Learn how this change may benefit your case today.
