Certain Syrian Asylees & Refugees

 

The Syrian Adjustment Act (Public Law 106-378) permits up to 2,000 eligible Syrian nationals who were previously granted asylum in the United States to apply for permanent residency independent of the annual statutory limit of 10,000 asylum-based adjustments.

 

To be eligible for adjustment of status under Syrian Adjustment Act, the principal petitioner must:

 

i)   be a Jewish national of Syria;

ii)  arrived in the U.S. after December 31, 1991, after

     being permitted by the Syrian government to depart

     from Syria; and

iii)  be physically present in the U.S. at the time of filing

     the application to adjust status.
