This document compares and contrasts the original 1993 rule on Special Immigrant Juvenile
Status, a 2009 amendment to this rule, the 2011 proposed rule on Special Immigrant Juvenile
Status, and the subsequently adopted 2022 rule that went into effect on March 8, 2022. The 2022
rule significantly amended prior versions of the rule, including the 2011 proposed rule. This
document will help readers understand the 2022 rule amendments and which portions of the
1993 and 2009 versions of the rule remain intact, as well as which portions of the 2011 proposed
rule remained in the final rule.
