‘Biden wants to delay the delay in the green card processing system’

WASHINGTON: US President Joe Biden wants to overcome a very delay in the green card processing system, the White House said, a step that will benefit many Indians working at the H-1B visa.
Green cards, which are officially known as permanent resident cards, are documents issued for immigrants to the US as evidence that the carrier has been given permanently lived privileges in the US.
India’s IT professionals, most of which are very skilled and comes to the US especially in the H-1B work visa, are the worst patients from the current immigration system which imposes seven percent per quota country in the rate of coveted green cards or permanent law residencies.
“The President really wants to overcome the delay in the Green Card processing system too,” White Press Secretary Jen PSaki told reporters at a daily press conference on Friday.
He responded to the question of waste about 80,000 work-based green card numbers that were not used, which was officially determined by the Legal Permanent Residency on October 1, because US citizenship and immigration services (USCIS) could not allocate it to several million people.
Waiting in line with the green card.
Large delays in the process of green cards hundreds and thousands of talented Indian technology professionals, sometimes running into a few decades, is one of the main problems that are of concern among Indian-Americans and their children who live here.
The H-1B visa, the most sought after by TI India professionals, is a non-immigrant visa that allows US companies to employ foreign workers in special work that requires theoretical or technical skills.
Technology companies depend on it to employ tens of thousands of employees every year from countries such as India and China.
Indian technology professionals have urged the government of Biden and US Congress to make legislative changes needed not to let the green card slot expiration.
Earlier this week, members of the Miller-Miller-Meeker congress introduced the Visas Labor to preserve that will enable USCIS to preserve a work-based visa that is not used to be used in fiscal year 2020 and 2021.
The law is the DPR companion to S.
2828, was introduced by Senator Thom Tillis in September.
“Ensuring that our immigration system is fair and orderly is one of my top priorities in Congress.
This visa has been authorized by Congress and will be used if it is not for the Covid-19 pandemic,” Miller-Meeks said.
“My legislation will trigger American recovery from Covid-19, contribute to long-term economic growth, and provide assistance for health care providers by reducing green card backlogs,” he said.
In fiscal 2020; A total of 122,000 family preference visas are not used.
This causes the number of job-based visas available at FY21 to increase to 226,000.
The dramatic increase in this work-based visa represents a unique opportunity to reduce green card backlogs and increase American competitiveness through legal immigration.
Processing delays in USCIS can put work-based visas that are needed.
According to the submission of a recent court, USCIS is currently at risk of getting almost 83,000 job-based visas, which ended on October 1 this year.
This is an additional up to 9,100 job-based visas that are not used from FY20.
Wasting this visa will be a big loss for the competitiveness of the American economy and the health care industry.
American businesses and health care providers have struggled to fill skilled and unskilled jobs before Covid-19 and continue to face labor shortages during recovery from pandemic, said Congressman.
