White House eases path to residency for some illegal immigrants - Page 3

Immigration procedure should always be taken seriously when it has been implemented at the agency level.The biggest difference here is that the individual would only generally leave after approval so it is pretty much guaranteed the individual will return if the documentation is in the positive beforehand.

Yup...I got screwed over by my mother's brother who sponsored her in the 80's, back when she would have been able to readjust her status easily and then right when her priority date was reaching, backed out. It set her back about 5 years when my brother became a citizen and sponsored her (which took only about a year and she still didn't have to leave the country thanks to another grandfathering law). That ended up setting me back another 5 years because a citizen parent sponsoring an over 21 child while long, is still shorter than a sibling.

It's just really sad that our only crime is getting too old. It's not my fault I'm here in the first place and it's not my fault I had the audacity to turn older than 21.

Currently, you have to fall under 245i to do AoS.

I thought the extreme hardship rule already existed? What will be different?

So a I-130 beneficiary would use this new rule to stay in the country if not under 245i once they their PD is current?
