If you are looking to get a green card in the United States of America then the road ahead is not easy. A latest data reveal suggests that the processing time is likely to be high with only 3 percent of the applications getting accepted. The new cap on the number of immigrants and on the type of immigrants is believed to be the reason behind this.
The number of applicants who might get an employment based green card is likely to be 1.8 million. The cap for it has been set at 140,000 per year plus the unused family sponsor card.
The new report suggests that a completely new system is needed to address the green card backlog in the United States. For this, the annual legal immigration number needs to be increased significantly.
This is going to impact the Indians who are waiting for their green cards and the Indian diaspora who wanted to use their unused family sponsor card. The growing backlog is one of the major concerns of aspirants waiting to get US citizenship.
