Updated: Feb 20, 2026

Summary

This bill is a private relief measure designed to grant lawful permanent resident status to a specific individual, Roberto Carlos Lopez. It makes him eligible for an immigrant visa or adjustment of status, notwithstanding certain general provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act, effectively allowing him to become a permanent resident. The legislation provides significant waivers, stipulating that Lopez cannot be removed, denied admission, or deemed ineligible for permanent residence due to any grounds reflected in Department of Homeland Security or State Department records at the time of enactment. Furthermore, it mandates the Secretary of Homeland Security to rescind any outstanding order of removal or deportation against him. To qualify, Lopez must file the appropriate application and pay fees within two years of the bill's enactment, and the number of immigrant visas for his birth country will be reduced by one. His natural parents, brothers, and sisters will not receive any preferential immigration treatment as a result of this bill.
