Important Information: Current U.S. Immigration Processing

On December 2, 2025, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced a temporary pause affecting Green Card and naturalization applications for individuals from specific countries. If you were born in, are a citizen of, or hold a passport from one of these countries, your USCIS application may not be processed at this time.

Due to this USCIS policy, and to prevent OPA loan applicants from taking on a loan for a USICS application that may not be processed, we will not be accepting OPA loan applications from individuals from these countries for their USCIS Citizenship application at this time
