Trump Administration Reverses Biden-Era Policy, Rescinds COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate for Legal Immigrants
Jan 22, 2025, 08:09 PM
President Donald Trump has officially rescinded the COVID-19 vaccine mandate for legal immigrants seeking permanent residency in the United States, reversing a policy implemented during the Biden administration. On Wednesday, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced that it is waiving the vaccination requirement for legal immigrants as part of their applications for lawful permanent status. This policy change affects those applying for Adjustment of Status through forms I-485 and I-693 and takes effect immediately. The reversal of this requirement aligns with the administration's broader approach to easing certain pandemic-related restrictions.
