US Green Card: Joe Biden's new citizenship plan aims to provide relief to half a million immigrants. Who can apply?

The White House announced a plan to provide relief to thousands of immigrants living in the United States by allowing spouses of US citizens without legal status to apply for permanent residence and citizenship.

As immigration becomes a concern for President Joe Biden in the run-up to the election, the White House announced measures to provide relief to hundreds of thousands of immigrants who may be living in the country.


The Biden administration announced on Tuesday that under the new plan, spouses of some US citizens who are in the United States without legal status will be able to apply for permanent residence and eventually citizenship in the coming months. More than half a million immigrants will directly benefit from this benefit.

Who is eligible for the new plan:

Immigrants who have lived in the United States for 10 years as of Monday and are married to a U.S. citizen would be eligible for the new plan.

About 50,000 noncitizen children whose parents are married to U.S. citizens could be eligible for a similar procedure, according to administration officials who briefed reporters on the proposal on condition of anonymity.

There is no requirement on how long a couple must have been married, and no one can qualify after Monday. "This means that any immigrant who reaches this 10-year threshold after June 17, 2024, will no longer be eligible for the program," they said.


What benefits will eligible immigrants get:

If their application is approved, eligible immigrants will have three years to apply for a green card, receive temporary work authorization, and be protected from deportation during that time.


Administration officials said they expect the application process to open by the end of the summer. Application fees have not yet been determined.


Biden will speak about his plan at a White House event Tuesday afternoon. The event will also mark the 12th anniversary of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, a popular Obama-era policy that offers young undocumented immigrants protection from deportation and temporary work authorization.
