List of EOIR Policy Memoranda

Policy Memoranda (PM) that served the sole purpose of rescinding previous Operating Policies and Procedures Memoranda (OPPMs) are not included in the Policy Manual. The absence of those documents does not reverse their effect, and any policies canceled by those PM remain canceled.

PM 20-16, OCAHO Settlement Officer Program, has been incorporated into the OCAHO Practice Manual. Accordingly, it is not included as a separate document in the Policy Manual.
