Overview
The Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2025 streamlines the process for Ukrainian nationals who have been paroled into the United States since February 20, 2014, to apply for lawful permanent resident status. It allows for waivers of inadmissibility grounds, establishes vetting requirements similar to those for refugees, and extends eligibility for battered spouses whose marriages have ended.
