I-360 SIJ AND G-325 A( for deferred action)
SIJ DEFERRED ACTION — IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THOSE STILL WAITING
For everyone who had their Form I-360 (SIJ) approved during the stay in A.C.R. v. Noem but has not received deferred action, I strongly recommend taking steps to determine whether USCIS actually conducted a deferred action consideration at the time your petition was approved.
Here is what I recommend doing:
1. Submit a Case Inquiry
Submit an inquiry regarding your approved Form I-360, specifically asking whether deferred action consideration was conducted under the court-ordered stay in A.C.R. v. Noem.
2. Contact USCIS and Request a Tier 2 Officer
You can also contact USCIS directly and ask whether your approved I-360 included a deferred action consideration.
If the initial representative cannot provide that information, request that your inquiry be escalated to a Tier 2 Immigration Services Officer for further review.
3. Submit a FOIA Request
Request your I-360 case records, including the case history, adjudication notes, and any available documentation showing whether deferred action consideration occurred.
I recommend pursuing all three options, especially because obtaining written evidence could be extremely important.
WHY DOES THIS MATTER?
There is an important legal distinction between being considered for deferred action and actually being granted deferred action.
If you obtain USCIS records confirming that deferred action consideration was not conducted when it was required under the applicable court order and policy, you may have grounds to argue that USCIS made an administrative error.
However, the absence of a deferred action decision in your approval notice or FOIA records does not automatically prove that USCIS failed to conduct the required consideration.
4. Consider Requesting Expedited Processing Based on USCIS Error
If you obtain credible evidence of a USCIS error, you may consider submitting an expedite request based on that error.
IMPORTANT: Evidence of an administrative error alone does not guarantee approval of an expedite request. You should also provide documentation explaining why correcting the error is urgent and why your circumstances warrant expedited action.
Evidence you should consider submitting:
* A signed personal statement explaining the alleged USCIS error, its consequences, and the urgency of correcting it.
* The relevant court order staying the policy change in A.C.R. v. Noem, Case No. 1:25-cv-03962.
* USCIS Policy Memorandum PM-602-0198, together with an explanation of its relevance to your case.
* Any USCIS correspondence, FOIA records, or other documentation supporting your claim that the required deferred action consideration was not conducted.
* Supporting evidence of financial hardship, humanitarian circumstances, or other time-sensitive consequences, if applicable.
5. Consider a Federal Mandamus Lawsuit if USCIS Continues to Delay
If USCIS continues to delay taking action despite your efforts, you may want to consult an immigration attorney about filing a writ of mandamus or an Administrative Procedure Act (APA) lawsuit in the appropriate U.S. District Court.
A mandamus lawsuit does not guarantee that USCIS will approve your deferred action request.
Instead, depending on the circumstances, a federal court may order USCIS to perform a legally required duty or take action on an unreasonably delayed matter. The court does not necessarily have authority to require USCIS to grant deferred action.
MY FINAL ADVICE
Document everything. Keep copies of your inquiries, FOIA responses, USCIS communications, and supporting evidence.
The goal is to establish whether USCIS complied with the legal requirements applicable when your I-360 was approved and, if not, to obtain evidence supporting a request for corrective action.
Do not assume that USCIS properly considered deferred action simply because your I-360 was approved. Ask questions, request your records, and document the answers.
Disclaimer: This is general information based on my research and experience, not legal advice. Eligibility and available remedies depend on each person’s circumstances, the applicable court orders, and current USCIS policy.
