U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services The practice of the Biden era is ending the third gender option on its table, where one homeland security official declared that there was “only two men and women – men and women”.
The agency announced Wednesday that it is “updating the USCIS policy manual to clarify that it recognizes only two biological genders”.
“President Trump “The American people will carry out a common sense revolution, which includes ensuring that the U.S. government policies agree to simple biological reality,” said Tricia McLaughlin, assistant secretary of Homeland Security, in a statement.
She added: “The proper management of our immigration system is a matter of national security, not a place that promotes and assists an ideology that permanently harms children and robs the dignity, security and well-being of real women.”

The agency said the policy changes were made under executive orders, which signed on the day President Donald Trump took office to “defend women from gender ideological extremism and restore biological truths to the federal government.”
According to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, USCIS believes that a person’s gender is usually proven in a birth certificate at birth or closest to the time of birth. “If a birth certificate at or closest to the time of birth indicates a gender other than male or female, the USCIS will be determined based on the gender of secondary evidence. ”

Last year, immigrants were able to choose The third gender option, or “X” when applying for naturalization.
“Historically, USCIS forms and related documents offer only two gender options: ‘Male (M)’ and ‘Female (F). This creates a significant obstacle for applicants who do not agree with both options,” the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration said at the time. “Limiting welfare requesters to two gender programs can also create administrative challenges to USCIS when we receive a birth certificate or other official government-issued documents.”

“Adding a third gender option helps ensure that secure identity files and biographical data are accurate and helps external stakeholders and individuals demand immigration benefits. This is also consistent with federal and state agencies that adopt a third gender option, such as the U.S. State Department’s expanded passport service offering gender X in its app,” it added.
