USCIS updates naturalization revocation review policies

The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has implemented new guidelines, effective September 14, 2026, to reorganize how the agency identifies and prioritizes cases for potential naturalization revocation.

The updated policy focuses on internal instructions to flag files that may involve illegal acquisition of citizenship or the intentional concealment and misrepresentation of material facts during the immigration process. This move is connected to Executive Order 14148, issued by President Donald Trump, which revoked 78 orders and memorandums from the previous Biden administration.

While some users have reported seeing unexpected 'revoked' statuses in their USCIS online accounts, the agency has not confirmed whether these are part of a widespread system error. Experts note that a change in online status does not constitute an automatic loss of citizenship; any actual revocation requires formal legal proceedings, which may involve civil or criminal actions in federal courts.
