On March 9, 2021, the Supreme Court dismissed several pending appeals over the “Public Charge Rule” following the Biden administration’s announcement that it would not defend the Trump-era regulation, issued in 2019, which dramatically increased scrutiny of assessment of public charge inadmissibility. In response, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced on March 9, 2021, that applicants and petitioners were no longer required to provide information of public benefits and financial standing required solely by the Public Charge Rule for the benefit of a “totality of the circumstances” test assessing whether prospective immigrants were likely “at any time” to be a public charge.

USCIS recently announced that the Form I-944, Declaration of Self-Sufficiency and any information and documentation required as part of the form are no longer required in response to a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision not to review the 7th Circuit case of
Cook County, Illinois and Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights v. Wolf. This led to the dismissal of the case on March 9th and ultimately USCIS’ rescission of the previously required I-944 form.
Note that several USCIS forms, including the I-129 and I-485 forms still have language on the form that was changed due to the Public Charge requirement so USCIS has indicated that in the meantime no applications will be rejected for leaving these sections blank.
so admires. i think president trump wants cabinet secretaries walking around him in the way that kim jong-un note takers do in those pictures when he s giving field guidance and these guys have their little notebooks open. that s what he looks for in an attorney general. he doesn t want loyalty, he was cravenness. that s not how the system works. actually donald trump said that after he came back from north korea. he wanted people working for him that acted the way that kim jong-un s minions worked for them. they have to come to their knees before addressing them. gene, we have this wonderful moment on the show yesterday where elizabeth was being interviewed by mika. mika asked about donald trump saying that flipping should be illegal, and he really did. everybody that was watching said my god this sounds like it s straight out of goodfellows.
