Trump Government make measures beneficial to Indian Immigrants to USA!

Diversity Visa Lottery! That’s going to be in the Past!!!

Trump government is vying to fulfill the promises made in the election campaign one after the other and this news brings cheer among the Indian immigrants to America who will be benefited the most. The Diversity visa requires an immigrant to USA to have high school education or work experience for 2 years. The recent terror attack in the New York City was caused by a group of terrorists who managed to enter USA through Diversity Visa. If the number of immigrants entering USA from any particular nation is below 50,000 in a year, then this Diversity visa comes in handy and useful for those immigrants who want to enter America and work in the country.

Diversity Visa previously issued through lottery for unskilled immigrants to America

The Visa is issued for those applicants chosen through lottery. The American House of Representatives made a proposal in curbing certain laws, and changes in other laws. According to this, the existing lottery system for Diversity Visa shall be stopped, so that most of the qualified and experienced techies and other skilled and talented professionals shall be greatly benefited. When the proposals were made to stop the unskilled work force from entering the country, America at large suffers from the shortage of skilled professionals, will be given permission to enter USA through H1-B. There are proposals to increase the number of H1-B visas which is certainly waving a green signal for Techies who choose to immigrate to USA. The highly qualified, talented professionals from India generally enter USA through H1-B Visa route. This paves a red carpet in entering USA and living in the nation for 3 years and then subsequently applying for extensions till 6 years. The applicant is authorized to apply for Green Card during the sixth or fifth year, which will entail the applicant to stay back in USA and continue to work and obtain a Green Card.

Increasing the issuance of Green Cards was also proposed

Recent speculations that there would be restrictions on extensions were proved to be only speculations as the Government of USA declared that there would be no restrictions to extend the H1-B Visas which will help the applicants to obtain a Green Card after a period of time. Applying for Green Card, especially among Indian white collar professionals is commonly observed. The waiting periods are sometimes decades for the Green cards, and obtaining a Green Card would entitle them for a citizenship in USA. Green Card enables the holder to enjoy many benefits offered by US Government. Recently proposals were made to increase the number of Green Card issuance as well as H1-B Visas. The majority groups benefited through it will be the Indian Techies and other professionals from India seeking Immigration to USA.

Stopping DV benefits Indian Tech Immigrants to USA

With the stoppage of DV (Diversity Visa) the unskilled workers shall b e refrained, thereby allowing the skilled professionals to occupy the desired and deserved position in USA contributing to home country’s economy as well. As we celebrated Republic Day yesterday, the Indian Spirit cannot be taken out of an Indian wherever the Indian could be. Among the other revealed proposals by the House of Representatives is DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals). The congress will decide and re-instate the qualifications for Dreamers, who can live and work in United States of America contributing to US economy. This might benefit 18 lakh dreamers who applied for the program to make their living in America.

Renewals for DACA were made possible!

DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) program which allows the children of immigrants to USA to pursue education, work and contribute to the economy of US. It is a relief program for undocumented students who entered US as students, which protects them from immediate deportation and allows renewal for 2 years which was amended by Obama’s government in 2012. This program also provides work permit in US legally within the renewal period. Trump Government has decided to end the DACA program after the formation of new government. On Thursday in a meeting with Senators officially declared to end up DACA with 6 month delay for current recipients.

Democrats, not with Trump but with Dreamers to pass immigration legislation!

Many of the democrats were against Trump’s policy to end Dreamers policy and threatened to freeze the spending bill until Dreamers are protected from any random decisions. Though Deferred Action does not promote a lawful status of the individual, but allows to Study & Work in US within the renewal period. More than 2000 leaders from different communities signed a letter addressing President Trump to help the protection of the individuals whose future seems uncertain. These immigrants to USA mentioned that, those individuals were seen to be grown up here as young people in the very communities that they contributed to enrich and strengthen the cities, states, schools, businesses, and families. Though in April 2017, Trump administration assured to rest easy but later in September announced their plan to dismantle DACA program.

After the decision, a few republicans emphasized the need to protect the DACA program and requested the law makers to pass immigration legislation. Upon the release of the declaration to end up Deferred Action program, fear and uncertainty stirred up among the DREAMers.

Dreamers were allowed to serve in the Military from 2014 because Pentagon adopted a policy to allow certain of the Dreamers to work for US Military in which 359 of the DACA individuals were short listed in 2016.

Federal judge blocked the ending of DACA program

In a controversial political row, a federal Judge William Alsupin San Francisco passed the judgment in regard to stopping the DACA program which refrained numerous deportations. This resulted in giving an opportunity to submit their renewal applications for those who did not renew their status by previous year’s deadline. This does not provide any opportunity for new applicants to file their applications.
