About 3,000 immigrants or refugees and 1,000 unauthorized foreigners arrive in the United States per day. During the 1990?s, 51% of immigrants were from Latin America, 30% from Asia, 13% from Europe, and 6% from Canada and other places. Spouses, children, and parents or other relatives of U.S. citizens may enter as family-sponsored immigrants. Foreigners with special positions or skill may enter as employment-based immigrants. Foreigners with a well-rounded fear of persecution in their home countries are allowed in as refugees. Most immigrants are family-sponsored, employment-based, refugees, or diversity-based. U.S. immigration policies were shifted in favor of those closely related to U.S. citizens.
