"[C]ertain aspects of the way in which USCIS proposes to implement this technical fix in the proposed rule will unnecessarily limit its positive effects and lead to an unnecessary burden on other segments of the U.S. immigration system. If USCIS were to revise the proposed rule as we suggest below, the provisional waiver process could further reduce the burden on the Executive Office for Immigration Review (“EOIR”) and on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (“ICE”).
