CSPA Policy Update: How USCIS's New Guidance Affects Child Status Protection Act Age Calculations

In this episode, we discuss the recent policy guidance issued by the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) on calculating child's age under the Child Status Protection Act (CSPA). We discuss the confusion that arose in 2015 with the Department of State's Visa Bulletin's two-chart system and the implications of USCIS's decision to use either the final action date chart or the filing date chart for CSPA calculations. Learn how this policy update will impact applicants filing adjustment of status, the potential to file a motion to reopen for denied cases, and the relief it brings to families facing the risk of their children aging out.
