Original Date Announced
January 29, 2026The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) begins using a new version of Form I-867B, Jurat for Record of Sworn Statement in Proceedings under Section 235(b)(1) of the Act, that records only answers to questions about "Why did you leave your home country or country of last residence" and "Do you have any questions or is there anything else you would like to add?"
The prior version of the form additionally recorded answers to the questions "Do you have any fear or concern about being returned to your home country or being removed from the United States" and "Would you be harmed if you are returned to your home country or country of last residence?"
The use of the revised form was first revealed in a government filing before the DC Circuit in Make the Road New York v. Noem, 25-5320 (2d Cir.).
