Today, the most distinguishing characteristic of innovative and adaptive immigrants is an ability to wait a long time. That is because America’s system for both family-sponsored and employment-based immigration is saddled with backlogs that force individuals and their American sponsors to wait many years – potentially decades – before obtaining a green card. Absent action by the President and Congress the situation will grow worse,
creating much hardship and weakening the competitiveness of U.S. companies. The estimates are based on
examining data from the U.S. Department of State and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, as well as consulting with attorneys and government officials. The research was made possible by a grant from the Carnegie Corporation of New York. The statements made and views expressed are solely the responsibility of the author.
