USCIS Issues Guidance on Adjustment of Status by Aliens Whose Conditional Permanent Residence Has Been Terminated
USCIS today issued policy guidance (PDF, 382 KB) explaining how USCIS applies Matter of Stockwell and clarifying when USCIS may adjust the status of an alien whose Conditional Permanent Resident (CPR) status has been terminated. An immigration judge does not need to affirm the termination of CPR status before the alien can file a new adjustment of status application.
An alien with CPR status obtains lawful permanent resident status either based on marriage to a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident (if the marriage is less than two years at the time the alien adjusts status or is admitted for lawful permanent resident status) or based on an immigrant investor (EB-5) visa.
An alien with CPR status is generally ineligible to adjust their status on a new basis under the provisions of section 245(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. However, USCIS may adjust an alien’s status if their CPR status has been terminated and:
The alien has a new basis for adjustment of status;
The alien is otherwise eligible to adjust status; and
USCIS has jurisdiction over the adjustment of status application.
Time spent in the prior CPR status does not count toward the residency requirements for naturalization.
This guidance applies to adjustment of status applications filed with USCIS on or after Nov. 21, 2019.

美國入籍與移民服務局(USCIS)確認關於“當外華人的條件永久居留權被終止”時調整身份的指導
美國移民局近日釋出政策指導解釋美國移民局(USCIS)如何應用 Matter of Stockwell 和澄清當美國移民局可以調整條件綠卡外華人身份被終止的情況。一個移民官不需要確認條件綠卡終止狀態，在這之前,外華人可以提交新的調整身份的申請。
新規目的：
近日美國移民局確定了一項新政策：指導關於美國移民局政策手冊以更新和澄清當美國移民局可以調整“外國申請人條件綠卡身份被終止”的情況。
Purpose
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is issuing policy guidance in the USCIS Policy Manual to update and clarify when USCIS may adjust the status of an applicant whose conditional permanent resident (CPR) status was terminated.
一個處於條件綠卡身份的外華人獲得合法永居身份是透過：
同合法的美國公民或者合法綠卡者的婚姻（如果外華人調整身份或者承認為合法永久居民身份時他們的婚姻狀態短於2年）；或者
基於美國EB5投資移民簽證；
PS:言下之意就解釋了美國的條件綠卡只有兩種情況，即婚姻綠卡和EB5投資移民綠卡，因此以後申請就清楚了，除了上述兩種情況之外，剩下的都是一步到位的永居(綠卡)。
一個具有條件綠卡身份的外華人基於新的移民和規劃法案section 245(a)基礎之下通常是沒有資格來調整他們的身份。然而，如果他們的條件綠卡被終止則美國移民局可以調整一個外華人的身份：
外華人有一個新的調整身份的基礎；
外華人是否具備資格調整身份；並且
美國移民局對於調整身份具有管轄權；
是不是聽著有點懵逼？？？
資深移民行業自媒體人 被遺忘的房子 認為上述3點可以這樣理解：
申請人(外華人)在美國條件綠卡終止具有合法身份，調整身份的時機成熟，對於EB5投資人來說就是移民排期表的B欄（即移民簽證遞表日期 DATES FOR FILING OF EMPLOYMENT-BASED VISA APPLICATIONS，也稱之為排期B表）已到申請人的優先日期；
申請人(外華人)滿足瞭解除條件的要求，即與美國公民或者美國綠卡者的婚姻滿2年；或者獲批了I-526臨時綠卡創造了10個就業機會的EB5投資者；
美國移民局有權利進行調整身份，而申請人不屬於政治庇護，難民，正在移民法庭上庭，上訴，被美國司法羈押逮捕或者其他特殊情況；
條件綠卡的等待期間：
花費在條件綠卡期間的時間不計算在公民居住要求之內。
關於本新規生的時間：
本指南適用於2019年11月21日時或者之後向美國入籍與移民服務局提起的調整身份申請的情況。
最後更新時間：2019年11月21日
