675,000 LEGAL Immigrants Per Year Are Allowed By Law Into the US
The INA allows the United States to grant up to 675,000 permanent Immigrant Visas each year across various visa categories.
On top of those 675,000 visas, the INA sets no limit on the annual admission of U.S. citizensโ spouses, parents, and children under the age of 21.
In addition, each year the President is required to consult with Congress and set an annual number of refugees to be admitted to the United States through the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program.
