The Department of Homeland Security has introduced an Interim Final Rule (IFR) mandating a new registration process for aliens under the Immigration and Nationality Act. This rule advises aliens who have not registered to use form G-325R on myUSCIS to comply with the law. The IFR also outlines penalties for non-compliance, such as fines up to $5,000 and potential imprisonment. The rule includes provisions for public comments and considerations for implementing a $30 fee for biometric services, though there's no fee for now.
Simple Explanation
The government has made a new rule where people from other countries living here have to fill out a special form to let the government know they’re here, or they might have to pay a big fine or even go to jail. They’re asking people to give their fingerprints but aren’t charging for it right now.
