It proposes increased access to Green Cards for high-skilled workers by
expanding the exemptions and eliminating the annual per country limits for
employment based Green Cards.
The legislation also aims at reforming the fees on H-1B and Green Cards so
those fees can be used to promote American worker retraining and education.
Furthermore, it authorises employment for dependent spouses of H-1B visa
holders, thus meeting a long pending demand.
It also proposes to increase portability of high skilled foreign workers by
removing impediments and costs of changing employers, establishing a clear
transition period for foreign workers as they change jobs, and restoring
visa revalidation for E, H, L, O, and P non-immigrant visa categories.
The legislation, if passed by the Congress and signed into law by the US
President, will enable the recapture of Green Card numbers that were
approved by Congress in previous years but were not used.
It will exempt certain categories of persons from the employment-based Green
Card cap, including dependents of employment-based immigrant visa
recipients, US STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) advance
degree holders, persons with extraordinary ability and outstanding
professors and researchers.
The legislation also provides for the roll-over of unused employment-based
immigrant visa numbers to the following fiscal year so that future visas are
not lost due to bureaucratic delays, and eliminate annual per-country
limits for employment based visa petitioners and adjust per-country caps for
family-based immigrant visas.
