USCIS Issues Correction to Typos in 'Signatures on Immigration Benefit Requests' Rule
Published Jun 30, 2026
DHS published a correction to a rule document titled 'Signatures on Immigration Benefit Requests' that originally appeared in the Federal Register on May 11, 2026. The correction fixes several instances where 'PM' (referring to a USCIS Policy Memorandum) was mistakenly printed as 'p.m.'.
Key points
- The correction applies to the rule document originally published on page 25479 of the May 11, 2026 Federal Register.
- Multiple sentences on pages 25481 and 25482 are corrected to change 'p.m.' to 'PM'.
- The errors involved references to 2016 and 2018 USCIS Policy Memoranda discussed in the rule's preamble.
- This correction notice does not change any substantive requirement, eligibility rule, or procedure.
