This webinar will explain the terms of the recent settlement in Vangala v. USCIS, which provides relief to over 60,000 asylum and U visa applicants whose applications were wrongly rejected by USCIS because they contained a blank space. USCIS rescinded its policy in response to the filing of the lawsuit and, pursuant to the settlement agreement, now will issue new receipt notices which reflect the original filing date in cases wrongly rejected under its “Blank Space Rejection Policy.” We will address who is covered by the lawsuit and what steps those individuals or their attorneys must take to obtain relief.
