请问8老师和大家,移民局网上的这个信息是什么意思?是非牧师类的宗教移民到今年12月16日结束,不能再申请了吗?还是这个时间段后暂时不能申请,不久后会重新开启?谢谢!
Sunset Date for Non-Minister Religious Workers Program
On Sept. 30, 2022, the president signed into law H.R. 6833, extending the EB-4 non-minister special immigrant religious worker program through Dec. 16, 2022. The law allows these workers to immigrate or adjust to permanent resident status by that date. Non-minister special immigrant religious workers include those within a religious vocation or occupation engaged in a professional or non-professional capacity. The end date for the program also applies to accompanying spouses and children of non-minister special immigrant religious workers.
Special immigrants entering the U.S. solely to carry on the vocation of a minister, and their accompanying spouses and children, are not affected by this date.
