Pending immigration cases on the rise

It is well known that thousands of foreigners choose the US as their destination to build a promising future, whether through employment programs, options based on family ties, study visas or other alternatives.

However, the local immigration system has not been able to cope in recent years due to multiple factors such as the increase in immigration applications, the shortage of employees in important agencies such as the USCIS (US Citizenship and Immigration Services), and certain guidelines established for decades that are not always in line with current global needs.

Adding to that, under the Donald Trump administration, the immigration system went through a series of changes that hindered many immigration processes, lengthening waiting times for applicants and increasing the backlog of pending immigration cases.

Aside from restrictive policies implemented by former President Trump on the immigration system, the health crisis caused by the global Coronavirus pandemic almost completely paused immigration around the world, further delaying pending immigration applications in the US and increasing the workload for immigration officers.

Delays in immigration processes affect foreign students and workers

The backlog of immigration cases is affecting not only foreigners who want to come to the US for the first time and who have been waiting for several months, in many cases even before the massive Coronavirus outbreak, but also foreigners who currently reside in the country under certain legal permits, but who need to either renew their visas or change their immigration status.

The situation regarding pending immigration processes is particularly worrying for local companies and educational institutions because they have not been able to attract talent from abroad to boost the economy in times of crisis, nor have they been able to hire foreign workers who already reside in the country due to waiting times of certain immigration programs, which leaves thousands of people in limbo and delays the national economic recovery amid the sanitary emergency.

In fact, according to a recent report, dozens of international students are trying to apply for employment permits after completing their higher education in the US, but many of them are having problems and losing job opportunities due to the backlog of immigration cases. It is worth mentioning that many foreigners work in extremely important sectors such as science, technology, education, engineering and research.
