The most important issues

There were many issues that caught the attention of the American population when it comes to the immigration sector during 2022.

Let’s take a look at some of them:

Expedited immigration application processing

Since Biden took office at the beginning of 2021, his administration has focused heavily on reducing the backlog of immigration applications across the US, which, apart from already being pre-existing, intensified after the sudden arrival of the global Coronavirus pandemic.

Thus, during 2022, the USCIS (US Citizenship and Immigration Services) was finally able to expedite the processing of applications and reduce, although slightly, the backlog of cases. With this pace, this entity in charge of immigration processing will be able to process more cases than expected in this new year.

The border situation

Clearly, one of the most controversial issues is the border situation and the high rates of irregular migration. Unfortunately, 2022 was the year with the highest irregular migration numbers on record in the US, which undoubtedly generates gigantic social controversy.

Employment visas and labor shortages

For American employers in all kinds of sectors, business immigration and the presence of highly skilled foreign workers is absolutely essential, especially as the country is currently experiencing the most alarming labor shortage in recent history.

Therefore, business immigration and employment visas were a focus of attention for the local population, specifically for employers who rely on foreign labor to meet market needs.
