2. Class of people benefited: People

Note: The Democrats don’t like you guys and therefore will probably take
forever to promulgate regulations. But below are the Proposals:
1. Expanding the subjects for STEM OPT extension
2. Issue guidance for National Interest
Waiver. Right now some officers use the same standard as the Exceptional category
only
3. Start ups and Entrepreneurs ---who don’t
have enough for National Interest Waivers, but who has secured US venture
Capital will be able to come and work in the US with a parole.
4. L-1B s are now impossible to get.
Hopefully this will become easier.
5. I-140 portability will become easier
by getting the “same and similar” standard better
6. Work permits to H-4—probably the
regulations will be finalized in January
7. Beneficiaries getting I-140 approval
will be able to file I-485 thereby getting right to work for spouses, irrespective
of whether their visa numbers are available.
