Share this page

ANCOR joined ten other organizations signing onto a coalition letter to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). In the letter, the groups urge USCIS to end delays in the processing of Immigrant Petitions for Registered Nurses. The groups point out that the delays, as long as 4 to 6 months, significantly affect the ability of health care providers to staff essential nursing positions.
