The Story in Brief
New US immigration forms will apply from September 15, NDTV Profit reports. The US Citizenship and Immigration Services will not provide a transition period for applicants to use older editions alongside the new forms.
The change matters to Indian students and workers preparing US immigration applications. They will need to check that their paperwork uses the correct edition after the deadline. Submitting an older version could create processing problems, making the form edition an important detail for applicants and their advisers to verify before filing.
The Indian Opinion
Claims that the change will shut Indian students and workers out of the US would be exaggerated, since the reported issue concerns paperwork rather than eligibility. But dismissing it as routine administration would also be careless when USCIS will not accept a parallel older edition period. The practical test is simple: whether applications filed after September 15 using old forms are rejected or returned.
