State Department Reportedly Estimates Unused Visa Number Since 1990 at "500,000"
The recent legislative bill to recapture unused visa numbers focused on theused and wasted visa numbers in recent years which were estimated at 200,000. However, report indicates that the number goes beyond the number if all the unused and wasted numbers are counted from 1990. Reportedly the numbers are as high as 500,000!
This morning, the full House Judiciary Committee is scheduled to take up Rep. Zoe Lofgren's recaputre bill. We submit that it is a right thing to do for the Judiciary Committee to recommend this bill to the full House floor such that the legislative intent of the statute that allocated the annual visa numbers be implemented by permitting recapture of the wasted visa numbers over the years as quickly as possible.
