US Tightens Green Card Rules for Marriage Travel

The US tightens Green Card rules through 2026 USCIS changes that directly impact post-marriage travel plans for applicants and holders. New requirements reinstate in-person interviews for many adjustment of status cases previously waived, adding processing delays and travel demands for those who have relocated. Heightened scrutiny applies to applicants with prior immigration history, demanding extra evidence of community ties, support letters, and positive equities.
