This rule amends Department of Homeland Security (DHS) regulations by eliminating certain references to the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) organizational structure and removing all references in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) to INS and U. S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) Offices. This rule also removes all references in the CFR to filing locations, so that USCIS may provide such information on petition and application forms and through any other means. In addition, this rule adds a definition of the term "form" to the CFR, which will facilitate the expansion of the use of approved electronic equivalents of USCIS paper forms; this will support USCIS' transition from a paper-based filing and processing environment to an electronic one.
