Bill overview
The Nuclear Family Priority Act significantly alters U.S. immigration policy by prioritizing U.S. citizens’ immediate family members. It reduces the number of family-sponsored immigrant visas available, lowering the cap from 480,000 to 88,000, and restricts the categories of family members eligible for these visas. Specifically, it limits immigration opportunities for the parents of U.S. citizens, creating a new nonimmigrant visa category for them while prohibiting employment and public benefits. The bill also modifies preference allocations and introduces changes to waivers and conditional permanent resident status.
