Updated: Feb 18, 2025
Summary
This bill provides for the relief of Ruslana Melnyk and Mykhaylo Gnatyuk, making them eligible for an immigrant visa or adjustment of status to lawful permanent residence. This special provision overrides certain sections of the Immigration and Nationality Act, allowing them to bypass standard immigration quotas. To qualify, they must file their application within two years of the bill's enactment, and if they enter the U.S. before this deadline, their entry will be considered lawful for adjustment purposes. Upon granting their permanent residence, the total number of immigrant visas available to natives of their birth country will be reduced by two, and their immediate relatives will not gain any preferential immigration status through this act.
