On November 13, 2024, USCIS posted the following message stating that effective immediately:
- Pending Form I-131F applications will not be adjudicated and intake of new Form I-131F applications will cease.
- Anyone with a future Application Support Center appointment in support of a filed Form I-131F should consider that appointment cancelled immediately. Anyone who appears for such an appointment will be turned away.
This is in response to the November 7, 2024, decision from a Texas federal judge that found that Texas and other states had standing to challenge the Keeping Families Together program and process and vacated the parole-in-place program for certain spouses of U.S. citizens as unlawful.
