Changes in immigration procedures in June 2025: What you should know
Keeping up to date with changes in immigration procedures is vital for anyone who is in the process of regularization or planning to start one. In June 2025, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) implemented several important changes that impact the times, requirements and procedures of various procedures. This article will explain what the June 2025 immigration changes are and how they affect your immigration process.
Major migration changes June 2025
Update on USCIS Processing Times
In June 2025, USCIS adjusted the estimated processing times for key forms, such as the I-130 (Alien Relative Petition), I-485 (Adjustment of Status) and I-765 (Work Permit). These times vary by processing center and caseload, but in general, some processing times have been optimized, while others are experiencing slight delays due to an increase in applications.
Changes in requirements for certain forms
USCIS updated some documentary requirements, especially in the I-130 form, where more evidence of the family relationship is now requested to avoid fraud. There were also modifications to the I-485, with new questions related to criminal history and security.
New policies on extensions and renewals
Extensions of work permits and temporary status now require additional evidence of continuous work activity or humanitarian reasons, seeking greater control over abuses in renewals.
Update on TPS for Venezuelans
In June 2025, the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) program for Venezuelan nationals is in a contested legal situation. Although the Supreme Court allowed the termination of the TPS designation under the 2023 administration, a lawsuit filed by the National TPS Alliance and other groups is still pending in court. This lawsuit seeks to reinstate TPS for those affected and could allow some beneficiaries to keep or renew their work permits (EADs), creating an uncertain landscape.
Detentions after hearings and dismissal of asylum cases
One practice that set off alarm bells in June was the immediate detention of asylum seekers as they left their immigration hearings, even in cases where the judge had dismissed the charges. In cities such as Houston and San Antonio, several immigrants - including entire families - were arrested by ICE agents just after their court dates ended, with no prior notice or opportunity to defend themselves.
These actions have generated fear among those still awaiting resolution of their cases and have reignited the debate on the need to protect basic rights during immigration court proceedings.
Modifications in interview and appearance procedures
Options for conducting immigration interviews remotely were made more flexible in certain cases, a measure aimed at streamlining processes and avoiding delays due to logistical or sanitary problems.
Resumption of the process under the Cuban Adjustment Act
One of the most relevant news of the month was the court order issued on June 6, 2025, compelling USCIS to resume processing applications for adjustment of status under the Cuban Adjustment Act (CAA).
With this new court order, a possibility opens up for more Cubans to regularize their immigration status. However, its implementation will depend on how USCIS applies the ruling and the development of ongoing legal proceedings.
What these changes mean for you
These adjustments mean that applicants must be even more attentive to the documents they submit and the timescales they manage. The increased demand for evidence is intended to prevent fraud and speed up the resolution of genuine cases, but it can also complicate preparation if adequate advice is not available.
On the other hand, the legal status of TPS for Venezuelans and the recent detentions following immigration hearings generate uncertainty and concern.
Remote interviewing, although an advantage, requires good connectivity and preparation to handle the technology involved.
