The list above shows the most recent immigration rules, proposed rules, and official notices from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. These are real government actions — things like extending or ending Temporary Protected Status for a country, changing how a form is filed, or proposing a new regulation. Each one is labeled by type and dated, with a link to the full official document so you can read the source for yourself.
Everything here comes directly from the Federal Register — the official daily journal of the United States government. We pull USCIS rules and notices through its open data feed and present them in plain language, without changing the government's text. Routine paperwork items are kept lower on the list so the changes that actually affect families and workers stay at the top.

Every item comes directly from the Federal Register, the official daily journal of the U.S. government. We pull USCIS rules, proposed rules, and notices through the Federal Register’s open data feed and show them here in plain language, with a link back to the official document. We do not change the government’s text — we only organize it and add a short summary.
A final rule is a regulation that is already in effect or about to take effect. A proposed rule is a draft the agency is considering, usually open for public comment before it becomes final. A notice is an announcement — for example, extending or ending Temporary Protected Status for a country, or updating a form. Each item on this page is labeled so you can tell which is which.
Immigration rules change fast. Our attorneys can tell you in minutes whether a new rule or notice affects your case — and what to do next.
