USCIS Clarifies Special Immigrant Juvenile Classification
USCIS issued three AAO adopted decisions clarifying SIJ classification. USCIS now requires evidence of a court’s intervention to provide relief beyond a statement that the juvenile is court-dependent. The decisions go into effect October 15, 2019, and will apply to pending and future petitions.
