Permanent Resident Status for Immigrant Children Graduating US Colleges
This act aims to simplify obtaining permanent resident status for individuals who arrived in the U.S. as dependent children of nonimmigrants, graduated from a U.S. higher education institution, and meet specific criteria. These changes could impact the life stability and career opportunities for thousands of young people who grew up and were educated in the U.S.
Key points
Grants permanent resident status to individuals who entered the U.S. as children, resided lawfully for at least 10 years, and graduated from a U.S. higher education institution.
Introduces "age-out" protections, meaning a child's age is determined at the time of application filing, preventing loss of status due to administrative delays.
Provides work authorization for individuals awaiting permanent resident status decisions, allowing them to be legally employed and self-sufficient.
Allows for the retention of priority dates for immigration petitions, which can expedite the green card process for beneficiaries and their families.
