NewsFlash! USCIS Agrees to Accept Previous Editions of Most Forms Until Feb 21, 2017

The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) issued the following announcement this afternoon:

When new fees for most of our forms went into effect on December 23, 2016, we published updated versions of the forms at uscis.gov/forms. We strongly encourage customers to submit these new versions, which are updated with the new fees and have an edition date of 12/23/16.

We will accept prior versions of forms, with the exception of form N-400, until February 21, 2017. However, all filings postmarked 12/23/16 or later must include the new fees or we will reject them. We will accept only the 12/23/16 edition of form N-400, application for naturalization.
