Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Returns the edition of one USCIS form that USCIS accepts today, with its accept-from and reject-from dates. Use it to confirm a filer has the right form version before filing. If USCIS has announced a newer edition it does not accept yet, announced_edition gives that edition and its accept-from date. For edition changes across all forms since a date, use list_form_changes. Covers I-90, I-129, I-130, I-131, I-140, I-485, I-539, I-765, and N-400; any other form returns not_found.
