I guess that change comes one step at a time.
CNN reports that the Biden administration yesterday announced that it will not automatically reject applications for asylum or immigration benefits when a blank space is left on the forms, a change from a Trump-era policy.
During the Trump administration, US Citizenship and Immigration Services rejected applications for asylum and relief for victims of certain crimes, based on parts of the form being left blank, meaning the application would be returned to the applicant.
