US citizenship and immigration services (USCIS) have recently said that they will recognize only two biological sex – men and women. The latest update applies to all waiting and future requests for immigration doses filed on April 2 or later, the release of the immigration department said.
“There are only two sexes – a man and a woman,” said Tricia McLauglin, an assistant for public affairs at the Ministry of Internal Security.
McLauglf further added that politics is in line with how Trump promised the Americans “a revolution of common sense” and “involves ensuring that the US government policy agrees with simple biological reality”.
What changes in the new policy?
According to the updated policy, the sex of a person will be determined on the basis of a birth certificate issued at birth or closest to birth. “If a birth certificate issued in or closest birth indicates a different sex other than a man or a woman, it establishes a gender determination on a secondary partition,” the agency said.
Which immigration requests would be affected?
USCIS policy with only two sexes will affect all waiting requests and those submitted on April 2, 2025 or later reported to the agency.
How can USCIS reject requests for immigration doses?
USCIS clearly states that this does not deny the benefits only because the applicant for the benefits did not properly indicate his gender.
However, the agency does not issue documents with an empty sex field and does not issue documents with sex other than sex, as generally documented a birth certificate issued at birth (or released closest to birth).
What if you do not mention the gender in the request for immigration?
If the applicant does not indicate his gender or does not indicate gender different from the gender on his birth certificate issued at the time of birth (or the closest birth) may be delayed in decision -making.
The USCIS may also provide notifications to applicants if it issues a USCIS document that reflects gender different from the document that indicated at the request for benefits.
What are the “secondary evidence” in the US immigration department?
USCIS requires primary evidence if it is generally available, as determined by the US Foreign Ministry. If primary evidence cannot be obtained, it should be shown that it does not exist or cannot be obtained, and then provided secondary evidence instead.
Secondary evidence must clearly replace the missing primary evidence.
For example, a birth certificate issued by a government is an example of primary evidence of the birth of a child, while a first certificate is an example of secondary evidence of the birth of a child.
