Allowing Employment Authorization for H-4 Dependent Spouses
By Felicia Escobar, Senior Policy Director for Immigration
Thank you for signing the petition suggesting that the Obama Administration
extend the availability of employment authorization to H-4 dependent spouses
of principal H-1B nonimmigrants.
The H-1B nonimmigrant classification allows a qualified alien to seek
admission to the United States on a temporary basis to work in his or her
field of expertise. We appreciate the important economic contributions H-1B
nonimmigrant workers make to the United States and support using the H-1B
visa program as a way to fill the need for skilled workers when American
employees are unable to meet the needs of employers. The Obama
Administration has also recognized that focusing solely on the H-1B program
would not be an effective long-term strategy to address worker shortages in
critical growth industries. That's why we are developing robust strategies
for improving our Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)
education pipeline and fostering innovation.
On January 31, 2012, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced a
series of future administrative reforms -- in recognition of the one year
anniversary of the White House Startup Initiative -- including reform aimed
at addressing the particular issue you raised in your petition. Specifically
, DHS is preparing a proposed rule that would allow employment authorization
for H-4 dependent spouses of the subset of H-1B visa holders who are being
sponsored by their employers for permanent residence and who have been
authorized by Congress to remain in the United States until their petitions
to adjust status have been adjudicated. This proposed change is an important
step toward realizing the 21st Century immigration system envisioned by the
President, and it reflects the Administration's continuing commitment to
attracting and retaining talented and hardworking immigrants. |

发帖数: 1983 | 2 This Administration has consistently stood for the principle that we are
both a nation of laws and a nation of immigrants. Throughout our history,
the United States has been enriched by a steady stream of hardworking and
talented people from around the world who have helped make our country the
engine of the global economy. In his State of the Union Address, President
Obama reiterated his deep commitment to fix our broken immigration system so
that it meets our economic and national security needs. He made clear that
our current immigration system requires fundamental legislative reform to
strengthen our economic competiveness and create a legal immigration system
that is fair and meets our diverse needs.
As a part of his vision for building a 21st century immigration system (PDF)
, the President supports legislative measures that would attract and retain
immigrants who create jobs and boost competitiveness here in the United
States, including reforms to the existing employment-based immigration
system and in particular strengthening our H-1B program. In the meantime,
the Administration will continue to undertake available administrative
reforms, such as the upcoming proposed changes to allow work authorization
for some H-1B spouses. |

发帖数: 1983 | 3 You can help theAdministration make lasting change to our broken immigration
system. President Obama is calling for a national conversation on
immigration reform that builds a bipartisan consensus to fix the broken
immigration system so that it works for America's 21st century economy. But
he can't do it alone. He is asking you and all Americans, including business
leaders, faith leaders, law enforcement leaders and others, to continue the
conversation in your community, including by hosting roundtables that
elevate this important conversation.
Again, thank you for making your voice heard. We greatly appreciate your
interest and input on these important issues and hope that you continue to
share your views with us

不过我可能理解有问题。这上面说的那么大段对H1B的限制不就是说已经在申请绿卡，
并且485 pending么？那对EB2是没用的啊。如果已经file了485，spouse可以拿EAD卡工
作了。不明白啊不明白

发帖数: 2769 | 11 仔细看了一下，说的是这个
http://www.dhs.gov/ynews/fact-sheets/20120131-dhs-retain-highly
里面的这一proposal：
Provide work authorization for spouses of certain H-1B holders.
This proposed change to the current DHS regulation would allow certain
spouses of H-1B visa holders to legally work while their visa holder spouse
waits for his or her adjustment of status application to be adjudicated.
Specifically, employment will be authorized for H-4 dependent spouses of
principal H-1B visa holders who have begun the process of seeking lawful
permanent resident status through employment after meeting a minimum period
of H-1B status in the U.S. This effort will help retain talented
professionals who are valued by U.S. employers and who seek to contribute to
our economy.
看起来还是要扩大允许工作的H4人群，其中H1必须
- have begun the process of seeking lawful permanent resident status through
employment
- after meeting a minimum period of H-1B status in the U.S.
或许还是有点新意的。关键是怎么理解“begin the process”。办了PERM算不算？办
了I-140算不算？
