Biden has directed the Department of Homeland Security to take action to ensure that US citizens with noncitizen spouses and children can keep their families together
President Joe Biden on Tuesday issued a massive immigration relief to non-citizens offering a path to citizenship to the non-citizen spouses and children of American nationals, a move that will protect approximately half a million spouses of US citizens, several thousands of whom are Indian-Americans.
"This action will protect approximately half a million spouses of US citizens, and approximately 50,000 non-citizen children under the age of 21 whose parents are married to a US citizen,” the White House said.
Biden has directed the Department of Homeland Security to take action to ensure that US citizens with non-citizen spouses and children can keep their families together.
This new process will help certain non-citizen spouses and children apply for lawful permanent residence - status that they are already eligible for - without leaving the country, the White House said.
These actions will promote family unity and strengthen our economy, providing a significant benefit to the country and helping US citizens and their noncitizen family members stay together, it added.
