Biden Plans to Expand Legal Immigration Programs
Legal immigration needs attention as well
The surge of illegal border crossings, which has intensified since early 2021, has caught the attention of the American population and sparked a colossal controversy regarding the root causes of mass irregular migration and how the US government should address the border situation effectively.
However, because irregular migration tends to be quite conspicuous, the legal migration system is sometimes neglected, which might in fact be one of the ways to reduce the number of border apprehensions.
Now that Democratic President Joe Biden is leading the nation, his administration plans to reform the immigration system in order to improve legal programs and streamline certain processes to, at the same time, reduce irregular migration levels by simplifying access to legal migration.

Biden plans to expand legal immigration programs
The current administration of the US has shown its intention to effectively address, and eventually permanently fix, the border situation. Nevertheless, President Biden is also aware of the need to repair the local immigration system to improve legal programs for all kinds of foreign communities, especially highly skilled workers and international students.
In fact, the Biden administration plans to expedite immigration processes to rebuild and expand the legal immigration system in general, especially the H-1B visa program for foreign workers, according to a recent report by The New York Times.
It is important to clarify that the H-1B visa is an alternative available for American or US-based companies to hire specialized personnel from abroad in important sectors such as science, technology, engineering and research. In other words, highly qualified foreign workers.
The current administration’s main goal is to expedite immigration programs and reduce the backlog of cases across the country through shorter and easier processes. It is worth mentioning that, aside from programs based on business immigration, the Biden administration also plans to simplify processes available to relatives of American citizens or LPRs (Lawful Permanent Residents), foreign students, and vulnerable communities in urgent need of international protection.
Adding to that, according to the document obtained by The New York Times, “There will be shorter, simpler forms and applicants will have to jump through fewer security hoops”. However, the Biden administration has not commented on this document publicly.
