Dear Ms. XX:
Thank you for contacting me about employment-based immigrant visas. I
appreciate hearing from you on this issue.
Under current immigration law, employment-based immigration is limited
to 140,000 visas, or green cards, per year. The process for obtaining
employment-based visas can take years to complete, causing many of these
visas to go unused. There is also an annual per-country limit that caps at
seven percent the number of employment-based immigrants that can come from
any one country. In some instances, this per-country cap causes employers
to consider country of origin, not talent, when hiring foreign workers.
Last Congress, a bill was introduced in the Senate that would address
some of these delays and caps. The “Reuniting American Families Act” (S.
1085, 111th Congress) would recapture unused employment-based visas from
prior years. This bill would allow the Department of Homeland Security to
issue any unused visas from Fiscal Years 1992-2007 and in the future roll
over any unused visas from one year to the next. It would also increase the
per-country cap for employment-based visas to ten percent of the annual
total.
This legislation was not signed into law before the last congressional
session concluded in December 2010. Therefore, it will need to be
reintroduced in the 112th Congress in order to receive further consideration
. Please be assured that I will keep your views in mind should this or
other relevant legislation come before the full Senate. Thank you again for
contacting me.
