LPR status and their spouses. Under the current system, employees with
approved LPR applications often wait many years for their visa to become
available. DHS will make regulatory changes to allow these workers to move
or change jobs more easily. DHS is finalizing new rules to give certain H-1B
spouses employment authorization as long as the H-1B spouse has an approved
LPR application.
2· Enhancing options for foreign entrepreneurs. DHS will expand immigration
options for foreign entrepreneurs who meet certain criteria for creating
jobs, attracting investment, and generating revenue in the U.S., to ensure
that our system encourages them to grow our economy. The criteria will
include income thresholds so that these individuals are not eligible for
certain public benefits like welfare or tax credits under the Affordable
Care Act.
3· Strengthening and extending on-the-job training for STEM graduates of
US universities. In order to strengthen educational experiences of foreign
students studying science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)
at U.S. universities, DHS will propose changes to expand and extend the use
of the existing Optional Practical Training (OPT) program and require
stronger ties between OPT students and their colleges and universities
following graduation.
4· Streamlining the process for foreign workers and their employers, while
protecting American workers. DHS will clarify its guidance on temporary L-1
visas for foreign workers who transfer from a company’s foreign office to
its U.S. office. DOL will take regulatory action to modernize the labor
market test that is required of employers that sponsor foreign workers for
immigrant visas while ensuring that American workers are protected.
5· Reducing family separation for those waiting to obtain LPR status. Due
to barriers in our system, U.S. citizens and LPRs are often separated for
years from their immediate relatives, while they wait to obtain their LPR
status. To reduce the time these individuals are separated, DHS will expand
an existing program that allows certain individuals to apply for a
provisional waiver for certain violations before departing the United States
to attend visa interviews.
6· Ensuring that individuals with lawful status can travel to their
countries of origin. DHS will clarify its guidance to provide greater
assurance to individuals with a pending LPR application or certain temporary
status permission to travel abroad with advance permission (“parole”).
7· Issuing a Presidential Memorandum on visa modernization. There are many
ways in which our legal immigration system can be modernized to reduce
government costs, eliminate redundant systems, reduce burdens on employers
and families, and eliminate fraud. The President is issuing a Memorandum
directing an interagency group to recommend areas for improvement.
8· Creating a White House Task Force on New Americans. The President is
creating a White House Task Force on New Americans to create a federal
strategy on immigrant integration.
9· Promoting Citizenship Public Awareness: DHS will launch a comprehensive
citizenship awareness media campaign in the 10 states that are home to 75
percent of the overall LPR population. USCIS will also expand options for
paying naturalization fees and explore additional measures to expand
accessibility, including studying potential partial fee waiver for qualified
individuals. | R*****D
