Supreme
Court
Rejects
Government
Practice
of
‘Notice-by-Installment’
in
Niz-Chavez
v.
Garland
[[link removed]]


The
U.S.
Supreme
Court


office,
including
reversing
harmful
barriers
to
immigration
and
updating
the
system
more
broadly.
Some
obstacles,
like
the
Muslim
and
African
Bans,
were
quickly
dismantled
with
the
stroke
of
a
pen.
But
other
executive
actions,
like
lifting
the
refugee
cap
or
addressing
obstacles
to
immigration
processing,
remain
incomplete
.


A
new
report
released
this
week
by
the
American
Immigration
Council
analyzes
how
the
Biden
administration
is
responding
to
the
bureaucratic
barriers
put
in
place
by
the
Trump
administration
and
makes
recommendations
to
foster
a
fair
and
efficient
system
of
legal
immigration
.

USCIS
arbitrarily
rejected
H-1B
petitions
filed
after
October
1
simply
because
the
employment
start
date—naturally—also
fell
after
October
1.
The
agency
created
an
absurd
choice:
foreign
workers
needed
to
start
on
October
1,
or
the
U.S.
employer
had
to
misrepresent
the
intended
employment
start-date
by
“back-dating”
the
petition.
