Anyone have any updates on this?

I'm sure this would help many of us if it happens.

Nothing yet. Have to keep waiting.

No updates and their won't be any.

Forget it and move on.

Nothing happened with that, as expected.

Thanks all for the replies. If I understand correctly an agency (in this case DHS/USCIS)  initiated rulemaking process involves a 1) advance notice for proposed rulemaking, 2) a proposed rule, 3) public comment and 4) a final rule.

 

So from what I have read the first step is complete and now its with OMB. There is a group (at another immigration forum) that met with staff at OIRA/OMB yesterday but I'm not sure about the outcome of that meeting.

Things like this have been popping up regularly in the last few years. Nothing concrete has come out. Do not waste your time hoping for a miracle. If indeed it happens then celebrate.

Well looks like there is some movement on this. Let's hope for the best now.
