YouTube Description
as posted by the channelUSCIS just issued Policy Memo PM-602-0199 — and it's the biggest green card
news of 2026. This USCIS update could force over a million people already
inside the United States to leave the country just to apply for their green card.
This is the immigration news today that every adjustment of status applicant
needs to understand. Over 1.24 million pending green card applications will
now be judged under a tougher standard — including marriage green card cases.
Even people with completely clean records are affected. There are hidden traps
for travel ban countries and unlawful presence bars — and some families could
be separated for years.
As an immigration attorney and former USCIS asylum officer, I cover every
USCIS news development that affects my clients. And the question I'm getting
most from asylees right now: does this USCIS memo and these immigration changes
in 2026 apply to you if you've already won asylum and are moving on to your
green card?
I'm Brian Manning — immigration lawyer and former USCIS asylum officer — and
in this video I break down exactly what PM-602-0199 does, why immigration
lawyers believe it won't survive in court, and why the path forward for asylees
has not changed.
