How a New Presidential Administration Affects Your Immigration Status
The election of a new President of the United States is something that is going to impact everyone, including immigrants. Immigration seems to be one of the big topics of discussion at every single presidential election cycle. The candidates talk about their stance on immigration and what they want to do to change it. While all of this talking is good, it can be difficult to understand how this is going to impact you! The road to temporary legal status, permanent residence and citizenship in the United States is difficult enough right as it is, but now you have candidates talking about changing it. So, how does it affect you?
How Presidents Impact Immigration
The road to legal status in the United States of America is something that is always in flux. What may be the process at one point in a year may change entirely in the next. The President of the United States can impact immigration in many ways. Take a quick look at any two presidents in recent history and what they’ve done for immigration. A search on Google will reveal their stances and the work they have done in the area. They may have very different ideals and it impacted how many immigrants were able to come to the United States and obtain legal status. Presidents have a lot of power over immigrants, their rights and their path to legal status.
