US Visa & Green card backlog | Why your Immigration case takes longer? Bidens Bill reduces wait time

US Immigration case takes longer to process.

The share of those waiting more than a decade increased nearly tenfold as per USCIS data, and many immigrants already wait more than 20 years because of the quotas. Wait times for immigrants will continue to grow year after year, as a result of America’s antiquated legal immigration quotas, and many immigrants, who are applying right now will not see their green cards for decades, if ever. Today, approximately 6 million immigrants are waiting for Green cards in a fundamentally broken legal system.

President Biden's raft of executive orders, memorandums and proclamations undoes many of his predecessor’s so called hallmark immigration initiatives. Biden’s moves represent a sharp U-turn after four years of relentless strikes against immigration. new immigration bill, US citizenship act of 2021 introduced in the house and senate is the most ambitious proposal and solution for all these long wait times. The bill reforms the immigration system by clearing backlogs, recapturing unused visas, eliminating lengthy wait times, and increasing per-country visa caps.
There are 3,762,891 people waiting in family-sponsored immigrant backlogs as of November 2020, according to the State Department data. the current backlog in the employment-based 1st, 2nd and 3rd preferences is 915,497 as of March 2020, according to the Congressional Research Service.
The U.S. Citizenship Act’s, provisions on legalization and backlog reduction in family and employment categories. it Increases legal immigration by 28% a year and would provide a one-time increase in legal immigration of approximately 11.5 million between Fiscal year 2022 and Fiscal year 2031. In doing so, it addresses what many consider to be significant policy shortcomings, in the current U.S. immigration system, including decades-long waits for many employment-based immigrants, long waits for family sponsored immigrants and the lack of a legislative solution for Dreamers.
