Preparing for a Possible Federal Government Shutdown

April 19, 2017

Executive Summary

If Congress is unable to pass a budget agreement or a stopgap measure by April 28,  immigration operations at the Department of Labor would be suspended; State Department and USCIS application processing would continue but could be delayed.  Congress continues to debate whether to reauthorize E-Verify, the EB-5 Regional Center program and other programs, which are set to expire unless reauthorized by April 28.

隐约记得听谁说过USCIS不关门。
因为USCIS不靠政府的钱，他们是靠我们交的申请费来过日子的。

看了下好像是这样

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services

USCIS should continue to process applications and petitions for immigration benefits during a shutdown, though processing delays could occur. Because DOL LCA operations would be suspended, employers planning to file H-1B, E-3 or H-1B1 extensions or changes of employer - for which a DOL-certified LCA is required - may be affected. In the past, USCIS has temporarily accepted extensions without a certified LCA in some circumstances, but such an accommodation cannot be guaranteed.

USCIS's SAVE system, which is used by government agencies to verify the immigration status of applicants for benefits, could remain operational, but if it is suspended, foreign nationals applying for driver's licenses and other state or federal benefits would experience delays.

If the E-Verify program is not reauthorized by April 28, employers who participate in the system would no longer be obligated to submit employment verification queries. If the EB-5 Regional Center program lapses on April 28, USCIS would cease to accept petitions and applications for adjustment of status under this category. Similarly, Conrad 30 waiver applications and non-minister religious worker petitions would not be accepted.

据说要强制所有雇主e verify
很多公司其实并不是e verify的，我当年就是兴高采烈的接了一个在uscis网上查到的e verify学校的offer，去了后才得知不是e verify，就没extension了，当时真想炸了学校
