Under the Presidency of Senator Kevin Cramer, the US Senate passed the 'Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act' bi-sectarian bill by consistent assent on Wednesday. As indicated by Senator Cramer, "The Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act makes a more legitimacy based framework that evens the odds for high-talented workers."
This bill expands the per-nation cab on family-based immigrant visas from 7% of the all out of such visas in an offered year to 15%. The bill additionally takes out the 7% nation cap for work based settler visas, a move which will demonstrate of massive advantage to Indian IT experts, debilitated with gigantic backlogs on their visas in the US.
Sen Cramer, talking about the bill, includes his tweets, the great many persevering outsiders who connect the aptitude hole and whose legitimate status is peril, because of discretionary per-nation covers.
By what means Will This Bill Help Indians?
Employment-based (EB) immigrant visas allotted each year have an annual portion of 14,000 every year, which has stayed unaltered. There are 5 unique classifications of these EB visas, of which Indians scored around 16,999 visas under only 3 classifications.
Republican Senator Mike Lee expressed in July that the current backlog for an Indian resident to get a green card is over 195 years. As of late, in an examination detailed by CATO Institute, EB green card backlogs from India has arrived at 7.41 lakh in April 2020, with a normal stand by season of 84 years.
Thus, S.386 sets down standards for holding a level of Eb-2 and EB-3 green cards for nationals not from Indian and China (as these two nationals have biggest accumulations), so these people can be denied from overwhelming designations of green cards, when their nation caps are reached.
This will help Indian nationals get a green card sooner and will lift the monstrous backlog as well, against people from different nations who don't confront any stand by time at all.
Coming Soon...!
