移民局电子申报规则评论期关闭：USCIS已获逐表强制网上申报授权 须提前60天公告
华盛顿——美国国土安全部（DHS）授权移民局（USCIS）逐表强制电子申报的临时最终规则，其公众评论期已于10月13日关闭。该规则已于8月11日生效：对于已提供网上申报满180天的移民福利申请表，USCIS 可在官网提前至少60天公告后，停止接受纸质版本。申请人届时须通过 USCIS 网上账户在线填写表格，或上传填妥的 PDF 表格及证明材料。
规则文本显示，截至2025年12月16日，USCIS 提供网上申报的22种表格均已满足180天条件，包括 I-129、I-130、I-140、I-765 与 I-907 等常用表格；但截至目前，USCIS 尚未指定任何一种表格强制电子申报，纸质申报渠道仍保持开放。规则同时拟设一项25美元的豁免申请，供无法电子申报的人士申请例外。
移民法律资源中心（ILRC）10月12日提交评论反对该规则，称强制电子申报可能给残障人士、英语能力有限者以及缺乏稳定网络与数字设备的人士增加障碍，并对 USCIS 现有电子系统的技术故障与退件问题表示关切，促请 DHS 撤回规则。国土安全部须审议评论期内收到的意见，并可据此调整规则。

Comment Period Closes on USCIS E-Filing Rule; Agency Holds Power to End Paper Filing Form by Form
WASHINGTON — The public comment period closed on October 13 for the Department of Homeland Security interim final rule authorizing U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services to require electronic filing for immigration benefit requests. The rule, in force since August 11, lets USCIS stop accepting paper versions of any form that has been available for e-filing for at least 180 days, after posting notice on its website at least 60 days in advance. Filers would then use a USCIS online account, either completing the form online or uploading a completed PDF with supporting evidence.
According to the rule, 22 forms offered for online filing as of December 16, 2025 — including Forms I-129, I-130, I-140, I-765 and I-907 — already meet the 180-day test. USCIS has not yet designated any form for mandatory e-filing, so paper filing remains available. The rule also proposes a $25 waiver request for people who cannot file electronically.
The Immigrant Legal Resource Center submitted a comment on October 12 opposing the rule, arguing that mandatory e-filing could burden people with disabilities, those with limited English proficiency and those without reliable internet access, and citing technical failures in USCIS's existing systems. DHS must consider comments received by the deadline and may adjust the rule afterward.
