Title VI: Family Unity and Backlog Reduction


Immediate relatives of U.S. citizens are not counted against the 480,000 annual cap on family-sponsored green cards, thereby providing additional visas to the family preference categories


The current per-country limit on green cards is raised slightly to clear up backlogs


Income requirements for sponsoring a family member for a green card are changed from 125% of the federal poverty guidelines to 100%, and other obstacles are removed to ensure fairness


The employment-based categories are revised to provide additional visas for employers who need to hire permanent workers, and the annual cap is raised from 140,000 to 290,000


Immigrant visas lost due to processing delays are recaptured for future allotments


Good Luck

POJ,
Any idea if this has this been approved by Congress ?

I doubt it will pass. I read on shusterman (I think) that the possibility of the bill being passed is low because it is all about making illegals legal. I guess it could be dead on arrival as the WI Sensenberger and Tom Credo once said on a similar bill last year.

Does anyone know how and where to write to the Sentors and Representatives in support of this bill?

I view this bill as very negative for legal immigrants. USCIS is not being given any additional resources and all the service centers will be swamped with applications from illegal aliens and cause delays system wide for all immigration benefits. I'd be happy to wait for the next fiscal!
