The information was approved on <strong>May 12 <\/strong>and sent to the President on<strong> 24th August <\/strong>and the White House Domestic Policy Council is currently reviewing its recommendations before they can send to President Joe Biden for his decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The report states that due to Coronavirus-related closures and staffing limitations and the continued effect of the <strong>2017 travel bans<\/strong>, <strong>processing green cards <\/strong>up to the yearly cap has been troublesome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It suggests that the Department of State&#8217;s National Visa Center (NVC) facility should recruit extra officials. To expand its capacity to process <strong>Green Card application<\/strong> interviews by <strong>100% <\/strong>in <strong>90 days <\/strong>from August 2022. By expanding Green Card applications and visa interviews and adjudicating decisions by <strong>150% by April 2023<\/strong>, and decrease the current backlog by the end of 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The panel said in the report that <strong>Green Card visa interviews<\/strong> and visa processing timelines. It should be limited to a targeted goal of six months. Green Card visa interviews and <strong>visa processing<\/strong> timelines should be restricted to a targeted goal of<strong> six months<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The commission prescribes decreasing the organization&#8217;s pending family-based <strong>Green Card backlog<\/strong>. US Citizenship and Immigration Services should review their process, systems, and policies and establish new internal cycle time goals. By streamlining processes, removing redundant steps, if any, and automating any <strong>manual approvals<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Green Card adjudication and processing time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It says this should improve its internal dashboards and reporting system, and<strong> improve policies<\/strong>. To decrease the process duration for processing all forms of <strong>family-based Green Card applications<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Family reunification has been postponed for quite a long time. Because of an expansion in <strong>family-based immigration backlogs<\/strong> over the past three decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The report expresses that out of the <strong>226,000 green cards<\/strong> available. Just <strong>65,452 <\/strong>family-based preference green cards were given in FY 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;If there is a question or more data is required, <strong>USCIS <\/strong>(the US Citizenship and Immigration Services) and the Department of State (<strong>DOS<\/strong>) shall continue to process the applications outside the <strong>half-year<\/strong> goal and adjudicate decisions in a timely fashion,&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;If an application isn&#8217;t finished in a <strong>half year<\/strong>, then it won&#8217;t be ended and will continue to be processed in a timely fashion,&#8221;, the report states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-right\">[<a href=\"https:\/\/www.h1btransfersusa.com\/blog\/dhs-final-public-charge-rule-effective-from-23-dec-2022\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span class=\"has-inline-color has-luminous-vivid-orange-color\">DHS Final Public Charge Rule Effective from 23.Dec.2022<\/span><\/a>]<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The proposals also include adjudicating requests for<strong> temporary work programs<\/strong>. For example, the<strong> H-1B and H-2A visas<\/strong> for agricultural workers are within a range of<strong> two months<\/strong>. It extends the period of work permit expansion to <strong>365 days<\/strong> rather than the current 180 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A green card is a<strong> permanent Resident Card<\/strong> given to immigrants to the US. As proof that the bearer has been granted the privilege of residing permanently while the H1B visa is a <strong>non-immigrant visa<\/strong>. That allows US companies to hire foreign workers for specialized positions that call for theoretical or technical expertise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If accepted and implemented the recommendations could be a significant relief to <strong>immigrant families,<\/strong> particularly from India and China.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The White House is looking into recommendations of a
