Hi! As I'm sure you're aware, your fellow forum members are not immigration lawyers nor are we paid to answer questions posted on this site. Please be kind to the members here. We're all going through this stressful/ambiguous journey together and have little tolerance for negativity.

I think there are a couple of reasons why you aren't getting a lot of responses. First, as @Stephanillia provided, there is an active megathread discussing the topic. Second, the topic has already been exhausted. As you will find in the megathread that emotions were high and people are just tired and dejected from all of the issues brought on by the current administration.

 

But to answer your original question, yes, permanent residents who are removing conditions would also be included.

To be fair the previously linked ban includes absolutely no discussion relevant to this question...

 

It might be this topic? Otherwise, I have not heard of this new policy and would also like to learn more.
