On March 18, The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) temporarily suspended all in-person services to immigrants in an effort to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus.

The office closure affects tens of thousands of individuals awaiting immigration benefits such as extensions of status, work permits, green cards and U.S. citizenship through naturalization — including those who have interview appointments, biometric services and naturalization ceremonies.

The paralysis of immigration procedures has generated anxiety in people with open processes, such as asylum seekers, permanent residents with green cards awaiting for American citizenship, and others with pending cases in immigration courts.
