Can I send my Absentee Ballot to a U.S. Embassy or Consulate for the Upcoming Presidential Election?

We have previously discussed who is eligible to vote in U.S. elections and how American citizens abroad (i.e. Vietnam, the Philippines, and Taiwan) can send their ballots by mail or use designated dropboxes to vote for their presidential and state and local candidates.

U.S. citizens who are unable to physically drop off their ballots at certain locations in Vietnam, the Philippines and Taiwan may also mail their ballots directly to the U.S. Consulate in Ho Chi Minh City, the U.S. Embassy in Manila, or the American Institute in Taiwan in Taipei at the following addresses:

U.S. Consulate Ho Chi Minh City
American Citizen Services Unit
4 Le Duan Blvd. District 1
Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

U.S. Embassy Manila
American Citizen Services Unit
1201 Roxas Blvd.
Manila, Philippines 1000

American Institute of Taiwan
American Citizen Services Unit
100 Jinhu Road Neihu District
Taipei, Taiwan 114017

When sending sealed ballots to the addresses above, registered voters will need two envelopes. The first (larger) envelope will be addressed to the respective American Citizen Services Unit. The second (smaller) envelope is to the local state election office along with the enclosed ballot inside. The second internal envelope must also include sufficient pre-paid postage to be delivered to the local election office from the U.S. sorting facility from where the ballot will be mailed.

Voters may use their own stamps or print their own postage paid envelope. Both envelopes must be sealed and mailed together to the American Citizen Services Unit. Once received, the ballot (along with others) will be sent via diplomatic mail pouch.

USCIS Now Requires Certain Adjustment Of Status Applicants To Submit Medical Examination With Their Form I-485 Application

Effectively immediately, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) will require certain applicants filing a Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status to submit a Form I-693, Report of Immigration Medical Examination and Vaccination Record with their Form I-485 Application. Applicants who are adjusting status within the United States are generally required to undergo a medical examination by a civil surgeon to show that they do not have any health conditions which would render them ineligible to immigrate. The USCIS has started this new policy change to reduce the number of Requests for Evidence that the agency issues before approving an applicant’s adjustment of status.  For more information and to determine whether you are subject to this new policy, contact us at info@enterlinepartners.com.

Incoming Trump Administration Looks to Deport Migrants to Third-Party Countries

The incoming Trump administration is preparing a list of countries to which it may deport migrants if their home countries refuse to accept them, according to sources. These countries include Turks and Caicos, the Bahamas, Panama and Grenada. If implemented, it could result in thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of migrants being displaced in countries where they do not know anybody, do not speak the language nor have any connection to the culture. It also remains unclear that if deported to those third-party countries whether those newly arrived migrants would be legally allowed to work and remain in those countries. It is also unknown what kind of pressure – either economic or diplomatic – is being applied to force those countries to agree to accept certain migrants once President-elect Trump’s term begins on January 20, 2025. Migrants from Venezuela, Cuba, China, and other countries that have been reluctant to

What is CBP Preclearance?

CBP Preclearance refers to a program operated by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) that allows U.S. bound travelers to complete immigration, customs, and agriculture inspections before departing for the United States, rather than upon arrival at a U.S.  Port-of-Entry. This process occurs at designated preclearance locations outside the U.S., typically at foreign airports. Key Features of CBP Preclearance: CBP is continuously exploring opportunities to expand the preclearance program to additional international locations, aligning with its goal of improving travel efficiency while enhancing national security.
