  • The USCIS has announced that USCIS and the Department of State (State) would invite interested parties to participate in a stakeholder engagement concerning the U.S.-Russian Adoption Agreement, which will enter into force on Thursday, November 1, 2012. The engagement will take place on Thursday, October 18, 2012, from 1:00- 2:00 pm (Eastern). USCIS and State subject matter experts will provide information regarding:

    " The provisions of the Agreement;
    " How the Agreement will affect processing going forward;
    " Which provisions of the Agreement will take effect immediately and which will take effect later; and
