评论了。提了三点：
1，有140的可以申请EAD和AP，即preregister
2，浪费的visa应该recapture
3，现有的SO分配没有考虑到diversity
Personally, I think the most important thing for the legal immigration
improvement is to let beneficiaries with an approved I-140 to "preregister"
for adjustment of status (I-485) even there's no visa number available. So
that they can apply for the Employment Authorization and the Advanced Parole
, which is critical for the families suffered from the backlogs. This
creates the flexibility for those families to seek better job opportunities
and hence improve the tax sources for the federal government. And it's also
helpful for United States to keep these talents.
Second, wasted visa numbers of past years should be recaptured to reduce the
current backlog. This basically will eliminate the backlog of China and
significantly improve the backlog of India.
Third, the current "cutoff" date method of the numeric control of visa
numbers is implemented solely on speculation. The Department of State will
manually guess a somewhat "cutoff" date and wait for some time to check the
demand data, then adjust (advance or retrogress) the cutoff date to manage
the visa numbers allocation. This is not accurate and leaves space for
corruption and/or discrimination in terms of how to allocate visa numbers
not used by other categories to those "over-subscribed" countries. To ensure
the diversity of the immigrant visa allocation, even these "spill over"
visa numbers should be allocated according to the rule that each country has
a upper limit of 7% of these visa numbers. For example, China and India are
over-subscribed countries, and there are 20,000 visa numbers available from
the "not used by other countries and/or categories". Then, 20,000 * 7% = 1,
400 visa numbers should be allocated to China and India. If any country is
still over-subscribed, then another round of 7% is allocated to them, i.e. 1
,400 visas again to China and India. Let's say China has no more demands
once these 2,800 visas are allocated to them (i.e. all current after 2
rounds of 7% allocation), then all the remaining visas will go to India.
