Cuban green card approvals drop to 23.7% in Q3 2026. US Citizenship and Immigration Services approved only 139 of 586 Cuban adjustment-of-status applications in April–June 2026, pushing approval rates down to 23.7% from 52.6% the prior quarter. The Trump administration has expanded immigration officer discretion and tightened scrutiny of legal applications, though data don't conclusively link policy changes to the decline.
