This update—applicable immediately to both pending and newly filed petitions—clarifies eligibility and documentation requirements, explains how related or multiple petitions are adjudicated, and outlines when USCIS may authorize filing of Form I130 directly with the Department of State (especially for U.S. military or government personnel abroad or during large-scale disruptions). It also clarifies procedures for routing approved petitions to the National Visa Center (NVC) and specifies when interviews are required or when officers may issue a Notice to Appear (NTA) in cases of suspected fraud or ineligibility.
