USCIS Going Electronic

Monday, August 29th, 2011

USCIS rolled out the 1st of many new regulations for comment toward transitioning from a paper submission process to an electronic one.   The new reg goes into effect 11/28/2011.

The new regulation revises more than 50 parts of DHS regulations contained in Title 8 of the Code of Federal Regulations. The regulation eliminates references to outdated USCIS benefit request forms and descriptions of paper-based procedures. In addition, the regulation removes numerous obsolete provisions of the regulations.

The public is invited to comment on this regulation and offer suggestions on further improvements. Comments must be received by Oct. 28, 2011. The new regulation will become effective on Nov. 28, 2011.
