UPI ID linked with a mobile number you dont use, or have anymore? It has not been an easy task to delink such an inactive mobile number from the UPI ID. However, going ahead, you will be able to remove, or de-link your mobile number from this UPI ID, even if you do not have that mobile number in your possession anymore. Before the end of this month (i.e., before March 31, 2025), all UPI banks and PSPs (payment service providers) will have to update their database with regards to recycled, or churned, numbers, to “reduce the chances of errors due to churned mobile numbers,” per a recent NPCI circular dated March 2025.

As the circular further notes, NPCI requires its member apps and banks to at least bring their mobile number databases up to date at least once a week, so that recycled, or churned-out, numbers are identified and weeded out more frequently. For this purpose, “the Banks, PSP apps shall use the Mobile Number Revocation List (MNRL)/Digital Intelligence Platform (DIP),” the circular adds.

USCIS) has announced a one-month grace period for older versions of immigration forms, including green card applications. This decision comes after a lawsuit challenged the agency's sudden rollout of new forms without prior notice. According to Bloomberg Law, USCIS will now accept previous editions of updated forms for 30 days from the date new versions were issued. The agency confirmed this update in a notice published on its website. Forms impacted by this decision include Form I-485 for green cards, Form N-400 for naturalization, and others. Earlier, the USCIS introduced updated forms with an edition date of January 20, 2025. However, when these forms were released in late February and early March, the agency did not provide a grace period. This led to confusion among applicants and attorneys, as older versions were submitted even after the updates took effect.
