visa backlogs: A bipartisan bill <\/strong>was presented in the US House of Representatives on Friday to properly use the employment-based visas <\/strong>allocated annually under existing federal immigration law<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to its authors, the Eliminating Backlogs Act of 2023<\/strong>, which was introduced by Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi from the Democratic Party and Larry Bucshon from the Republican Party, would give employers greater flexibility to use existing allotted work visas<\/strong>. Which they urgently require.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, the bill will help get rid of the visa backlog <\/strong>and make sure that the visas are allocated. Under the current federal immigration law <\/strong>can be used in the right way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Krishnamoorthi stated, “Even as our country’s high-skilled immigration system <\/strong>assists us in attracting top talent from around the world, current law caps the number of employment-based visas <\/strong>available based on workers’ country of origin, leaving thousands of visas that would otherwise assist our economy <\/strong>unused.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He stated that the legislation <\/strong>aims to end country-based discrimination in high-skilled immigration.<\/strong> Also, to ensure that all visas are utilized to attract skilled workers<\/strong> from all over the world. To help strengthen the American economy and create jobs while they also continue to invest in the domestic workforce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bill introduced in the US to eliminate visa backlogs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

“To ensure that our workforce can meet the demands of our economy<\/strong> in Indiana and across the country”. Bucshon stated, “under the current federal immigration law, there are a certain number of visas <\/strong>allocated annually. For skilled workers, such as doctors and engineers.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, the number of foreign nationals <\/strong>with specific skills and training who can work in the US is limited annually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In any given year, only 7% <\/strong>of the employment-based slots<\/strong> are available to any one nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, bureaucratic policies<\/strong> and delays have prevented hundreds of thousands of these visas from being used. Despite a serious need for more skilled workers <\/strong>across the country, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bucshon stated, “This will assist in supporting an immigration system<\/strong> that encourages and rewards legal applicants<\/strong> and boosts our economy.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a media release, US immigration officials<\/strong> did not use approximately 9,100<\/strong> employment-based visas in FY2020 and over 66,000<\/strong> in FY2021, respectively.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
