Has anyone seen any actual details (leaked text?) of H.R. 1177 / S. 348 ("A bill to provide an earned path to citizenship, to address the root causes of migration and responsibly manage the southern border, and to reform the immigrant visa system, and for other purposes")? Several weeks after the bills were filed, the actual text still is not available on congress.gov. The sponsors are piling on (especially in the House), which is a good sign, but the specifics remain a mystery. The overview last fall on Biden's campaign site was very promising, but I'd like to see the actual text of the bill. We're especially interested in the "family reunification" provisions that would allow relatives to come to the U.S. and wait until their priority dates come up and Green Cards are available. Also of interest is the proposal to eliminate the % cap that limits the number of green cards available to certain countries, with Mexico & the Philippines being most restricted. My ever-optimistic wife still has 3 adult children in the Philippines and thinks will should be able to have them (+ spouses + significant others + grandchildren) all here in a month. I keep telling her it will take a MINIMUM of 2-3 years for the legislative process / rule-making process / actual petitions & approvals to happen, but first we need to know the (still only proposed) details.

My wife started her interview yesterday at SLEC in Manila she was told she had to do the sputum test which starts today for the 3 samples and find out results in 2 months. which kills our interview at end of this month with the back log of immigration what is the chances of getting another interview set up before medical runs out after we get results back in May? We have to set up new interview from what she was told. This sputum test is what killed our K1 back in 2017 so we went with married route after 2 yrs stuck between rock and a hardspot.

Who have had their medical exam for US Visa taken recently at SLEC Extension Clinic Manila? Do they require you to sign a Health Declaration Form before entering the building or did they just ask for the requirements? My son is scheduled for his medical on March 11, he traveled from Singapore and completed 7 day quarantine in a hotel, he got negative swab test results, the BOQ certificate asks him to complete 14 day quarantine at home. If he stays home to complete quarantine he won t make it to the his medical appointment and embassy interview on the 15th. If he goes to his medical and interview as scheduled, will he be permitted inside if he shows his negative swab test results even of he has not completed the 14 days quarantine? Or they wouldn t know because it won t be asked at all?

Good Day everyone! I just wanted to ask if Biden administration has reversed Trump's public charge rule? Is DS-5540 still needed for immigration processing? Thank you!
