SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Executive Office for Immigration Review
(``EOIR'') maintains a Policy Manual, which contains a practice manual
for the immigration courts, <a href="https://www.justice.gov/eoir/eoir-policy-manual/part-ii-ocij-practice-manual">https://www.justice.gov/eoir/eoir-policy-manual/part-ii-ocij-practice-manual</a>, and a practice manual for the
Board of Immigration Appeals (``BIA''), <a href="https://www.justice.gov/eoir/eoir-policy-manual/iii">https://www.justice.gov/eoir/eoir-policy-manual/iii</a> (``the Practice Manuals''). The Practice Manuals
provide uniform standards for practice before the immigration court and
BIA.
EOIR is currently conducting a comprehensive review of the Practice
Manuals, and welcomes all suggestions or concerns from the public to
inform this review. In particular, EOIR is considering revisions to
enhance procedural consistency across all immigration courts and
courtrooms. Members of the public may submit feedback at the public
forum or in writing to the email address or mailing address outlined
above. The purpose of the above deadline for written feedback is to
give the public the opportunity to contribute to this comprehensive
review, but EOIR will continue to update the Practice Manuals as
appropriate. Following the closing date for public comments on this
comprehensive review, EOIR encourages interested parties to continue to
submit comments about the Practice Manuals as they are ``living
documents,'' and the ability for the public to submit comments is
ongoing.

Assistant Director, Office of Policy, Executive Office for Immigration
