AILA Question

At the conference, we discussed that members are receiving denials based on examiners use of “Wikipedia” as a source of information. We all agreed that Wikipedia was not a reliable source, as the purpose of Wikipedia is to allow anyone in the world to add to the content at any time. Please confirm that the Service Centers have been alerted to this issue and that Wikipedia will no longer be used as a source of information.

USCIS Response

SCOPS has notified the Service Centers of this issue and there should not be additional RFEs or denials citing Wikipedia. SCOPS requests that AILA provide examples to USCIS.

SCOPS stands for USCIS Service Center Operations. (Source)
