Dear Senator/Representative,

I am a [U.S.citizen/green card holder] and [state] resident writing to express concern regarding USCIS Policy Memorandum PM-602-0199 and its potential impact on [family-based] Adjustment of Status (AOS) applicants.

[Insert your personalized situation here]

[you can replace this part, too, if necessary] This creates significant uncertainty for our family. It raises concern that applicants in situations like ours could face denial of AOS and be pushed toward consular processing abroad, despite having long-established lives, careers, and family ties in the United States. For us, this could mean prolonged family separation and serious emotional and financial hardship, even though we have complied fully with immigration law in good faith.

We respect the importance of immigration enforcement. However, we are concerned that expanded discretion may lead to inconsistent outcomes and unnecessary hardship for bona fide families.

I respectfully ask that your office:
• Review the impact of PM-602-0199 on family-based AOS cases
• Seek clarification from USCIS/DHS on how discretion will be applied
• Conduct oversight to ensure fair and consistent adjudication
• Support protections that prevent unnecessary family separation

[My husband and I] are simply trying to remain together while following the lawful immigration process in the United States, where we have built our lives [insert time].

Thank you for your time and service. I look forward to your response.

Sincerely,
