Within the framework of the electoral year, the President of the United States, Joe Biden, announced a program that offers to facilitate citizens’ access to more than half a million undocumented migrants undocumented in the country who are married to US citizens.

Biden’s program, which will be launched in the coming months, allows these people to start the process to obtain a residence permit without having to leave the country.
In this way, we seek to eliminate a potentially long process and family separation; and with the time, They could apply for US citizenship without major inconveniences. In addition, around 50,000 children under the age of 21 with a parent with US citizenship may apply to this measure.
