US to Ease Rules for Visa Applications

U.S. authorities are easing requirements for background checks for some immigrants hoping to become permanent U.S. residents. The change is expected to help ease a huge backlog of green card (residence visa) applications.

Under the new policy, officials will be able to approve otherwise qualified applicants if they have been waiting for a name check by the FBI for more than six months. Investigators will still conduct fingerprint checks and an internet criminal background search on all applicants.
