On June 19, 2024, at 3:13 am, US President Joe Biden issued an executive order to simplify the process of obtaining green cards, benefiting individuals like US citizens' undocumented spouses and children. Those who meet the criteria will receive work permits and be allowed to legally reside in the US for up to 3 years while awaiting their green card, without facing deportation. The policy, aimed to prevent family separation, will come into effect in the next few months, benefiting an estimated 500,000 people, including undocumented spouses and children of US citizens. Applicants must have no criminal record, be married to a US citizen before the 17th, and have lived in the US for at least ten years; children under 21 with one US citizen parent are also eligible. This move is not a relaxation but a simplification of the process to speed up green card issuance and avoid family separation. The policy contrasts with former President Trump's strict border control measures, and immigration has become a focal point in the upcoming US elections.
