Submitting proof of education is a relatively new requirement under a policy known as the “public charge rule.” It is not yet clear which documents U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) places more value on. Green card applicants should provide evidence of all degrees or certifications received, including transcripts, diplomas, degrees, and trade profession certificates. If the applicant cannot locate evidence of education completed, they should provide an explanation and if possible, a letter from the educational institution attended.
