| On December 2, 2020, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld preliminary injunctions blocking the government from applying the new Department of Homeland Security (DHS) public charge rule in all the regions of the U.S. represented by the plaintiffs in the cases challenging the new rule, but this decision is not yet final. The injunction would block the government from enforcing the new public charge rule in [18 states]. This would mean that U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) would be prevented from applying the new rule in those areas, even though it could apply the new rule elsewhere. However, for now, USCIS may continue to apply the new rule, including requiring submission of Form I-944. It is important to watch for updates on how the agency will implement this injunction and whether they will challenge it. |

You might need to consult an attorney.
