The United States White House-backed bipartisan National
Security Agreement offers relief to holders of H-1B visas and their families.
It addresses the backlog of Green Cards and provides H-4 visa holders with automatic work authorization. This historic deal provides long-needed answers to the different immigration issues these people face, reshaping U.S. immigration policy.
The agreement lessens the burden of visa limitations by
automatically granting work authorization to around 100,000 H-4 visa holders and the wives and children of select H-1B visa holders. This guarantees
stability for their children and permits spouses to participate in the
workforce. The agreement offers protection and a way ahead for the
approximately 250,000 grown-up offspring of H-1B visa holders, addressing their
concerns as well. Additionally, it seeks to reduce the protracted Green Card
application process, which primarily affects Indian IT professionals and their
families. To help those affected by the backlog, the agreement aims to
streamline the procedure.
US President Joe Biden signed a bipartisan immigration
reform agreement, prioritizing security, fairness, and national values. The
agreement grants 18,000 green cards annually for five years, increasing
employment-based immigration prospects and attracting talent from diverse
backgrounds. It also grants accelerated employment permits for asylum seekers
and provides security and assistance to individuals fleeing the US. The
agreement also addresses China's threats and geopolitical issues, particularly
in the Indo-Pacific. The White House emphasizes regional stability and strategic
alliances, urging quick congressional approval. The agreement relieves H-1B visa holders and their families, marking a significant advancement in
US immigration policy.
