When the Policy Memorandum was issued last month, each USCIS Service Center had been given 30 days to develop processes and procedures for NTA issuance, even though the guidance itself took effect immediately. As of July 30, 2018, the operational guidance for implementation of the NTA policy has not been completed. Because of this, USCIS is postponing implementation of the NTA memo until operational guidance is issued. We do not have any information regarding when the operational guidance will be issued or when the NTA memo we be implemented going forward.
