By: Lihua Tan

On March 21st, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security shut down its CIS Ombudsman, DHS Civil Rights and Civil Liberties (CRCL), and Immigration Detention Ombudsman (OIDO) offices. Congressional offices will be accepting urgent cases that would have otherwise been sent to one of the recently closed offices.

The Chugh, LLP immigration team will closely monitor the evolving situation regarding the closures and provide updates as they become available.
