The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) had indicated that, as of October 1, 2006, Forms G-325, G-325A, G-325B, and G-325C would have to be submitted using the July 14, 2006 versions of these forms. Members of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) had expressed concern that software programs may not be updated with the new forms by October 1, 2006. As a result, the USCIS has agreed to accept the old versions through the end of October 2006.

We at the Murthy Law Firm recommend that individuals who need to file G-325s use the new versions of these forms even during the month of October 2006, to avoid any potential confusion or delays. [Clients of the Murthy Law Firm can rest assured that our proprietary software,
Immigration Matters! TM, has been updated with the new forms.] G-325s are filed with certain petitions or applications, including I-485 applications for adjustment of status. Many applicants rely on the pending I-485 application to obtain permission to remain in the United States. If one has no other status, and the application is rejected because the wrong G-325 is used, remaining legally in the U.S. may not be possible, and this is likely to delay the work permit and other incidental immigration benefits.
