🚨 PUBLIC CHARGE - GREEN CARD UPDATE

Starting September 18, 2026, the 2022 Public Charge Regulation will no longer apply, and new public charge rules will go into effect. USCIS will have broader discretion when evaluating whether certain immigrants are likely to become a “public charge.”

đź“Ś What you need to know:

USCIS may consider age, health, family status, assets, education, and Affidavit of Support
This applies to certain Green Card applicants and those seeking admission to the U.S.
Many humanitarian categories are exempt, including refugees, asylees, VAWA self-petitioners, and certain T and U visa applicants

⚠️ Receiving public benefits does NOT automatically mean you’ll be denied a Green Card. Public charge rules do not apply to every immigration category.

If you’re preparing to apply for a Green Card, talk to an experienced immigration attorney to understand how these updated rules may affect your case.

Found a nanny your kids actually love? You might be able to sponsor her for a green card!

The EB-3 visa is an option most parents don’t even know exists.

If you currently have (or are looking for) a nanny or au pair you trust with your children, the EB-3 could allow you to sponsor them for permanent residency in the U.S.

It is a multi-step process and it typically takes 3-4 years, but trust like that is hard to find. When you find it, it’s worth protecting. If you’re considering sponsoring your nanny, let’s talk about whether the EB-3 is the right path for your family.

Work visa or work permit: do you know the difference? 🤔

They’re not the same thing, and mixing them up can cause some problems.

🔹 A work visa lets you travel to the U.S. and request permission to work (think H-1B, L-1, O-1, E-2)
🔹 A work permit (EAD) allows you to work in the U.S. but doesn’t give you immigration status on its own

Visas are issued by the U.S. Department of State through a consulate abroad. Work permits are issued by USCIS.

Depending on your situation, you may need both, so make sure you have the right one for your case.

🚨 H-1B VISA UPDATE

DHS has proposed a $103,265 fee for H-1B cap-subject petitions—but this fee is NOT in effect yet.

If finalized, the proposal could significantly increase the cost for employers sponsoring new H-1B workers.

đź“Ś What you need to know:
• The proposal would be in addition to existing H-1B fees
• It could affect about 85,000 petitions each year
• DHS estimates it could generate $8.8 billion annually
• A 30-day public comment period is underway
• The proposal could still change or be withdrawn

⚠️ No one needs to pay the proposed $103,265 fee at this time.

🚨 Don’t let one missed form derail your green card status.

If you got your green card through marriage, it likely came with conditions — and that means you MUST file Form I-751 within the 90 days before it expires.

Miss it, and you could face:
* An expired green card
* Removal proceedings
* A costly, stressful fix

âś… Mark your calendar
âś… Keep copies of everything you file
âś… When in doubt, talk to an immigration attorney

Don’t Use Advance Parole Before Watching This!

As of August 13, 2026, leaving the U.S. could now cost you up to 10 years outside the country.

BIA just ruled that leaving the U.S. on advance parole can now count as a “departure,” meaning it can trigger the 3-year or 10-year unlawful presence bar. This is a major reversal, and it puts DACA recipients, TPS holders, and pending green card applicants at risk if they travel abroad.

For over a decade, a 2012 case called Matter of Arrabally and Yerrabelly protected travelers. Advance parole trips were not treated as a “departure,” so they didn’t trigger unlawful presence bars.

The new decision, Matter of Delcarmen-Lara, overturns that protection. Now, more than 6 months of unlawful presence and travel on advance parole puts you at risk for the 3-year bar. A year or more of unlawful presence and travel on advance parole means risking the 10-year bar.

This also hits people with pending adjustment of status applications who have advance parole but whose visas have expired.

If you travel while you have an open deportation/removal order, you can now be treated as having “self-deported.” This can lead to denial of admission at the airport/port of entry, expedited removal, or detention and being placed into full removal proceedings right at the border upon return.

IMPORTANT: The rule applies prospectively only, going forward from the decision issued August 13, 2026–not to trips already taken.
