USCIS Issues Guidance on In-Person Filing for Certain SIJ Petitioners

USCIS has updated its Policy Manual to allow certain Special Immigrant Juvenile (SIJ) petitioners to file Form I-360 in person at a USCIS field office if they have less than two weeks before their 21st birthday. This policy, effective March 30, 2023, aims to address filing challenges due to juvenile court delays. For others, Form I-360 must be filed by mail.
