WPBN: Migrants can apply for a green card in a variety of ways. A new incentive for those people who want to apply for permanent residency was recently announced by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
USCIS has stated that the immigration medical examination records for those Afghan nationals who entered the country during Operation Allies Welcome (OAW) will be valid indefinitely in accordance with the revised standards.
This implies that when they apply for their green card, they won’t have to go through the immigration medical exam once more.
Why is this Green Card update from USCIS?
This modification is a component of the USCIS-implemented Policy Manual guidelines update.
The modification, which is applicable to any Form I-485—the application to register permanent residence or alter status—has already gone into force indefinitely. Forms submitted on or after November 13, 2024, or those that are still pending fall under this category.
Qualifications for Afghan Migrant Eligibility:
Afghan migrants must pass a thorough immigration exam in the US in order to qualify for some immigration advantages.
Form I-693, which contains the immigration medical examination and immunization record, must be used to document this examination. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) made the decision that led to this regulation.
USCIS Provides Afghans with Important Assistance
Afghan migrants profit greatly from the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
Why Immigrants in the United States Need Medical Exams?
All foreign nationals applying for an immigrant visa must undergo a medical check, according to the official CDC website.
This covers every refugee coming into the nation. Physicians chosen by the Department of State (DOS) to serve on the appointed panel perform these exams.
