Illegal immigrants hoping to become US citizens could soon have new rules to follow that are causing quite a controversy.

A new rule proposed by the Obama Administration would allow applicants with hardships to quickly return to the US to wait for citizenship; it’s called a waiver of inadmissibility and is often used to care for loved ones.

Right now, illegal immigrants who apply for US Citizenship are usually forced to leave the country and wait for up to 10 years or more.

Immigration lawyer Chris Macaraeg says he advises clients with children or spouses who are citizens not to take that chance. “The risk would be to be separated from their families permanently,” Macaraeg added.

Macaraeg says his phone has been ringing off the hook since the proposal was announced.

“These people now would be allowed to apply for this provisional waiver in the United States and wait for it to be approved before going to their home country,” he said.

If approved, the rule is expected to affect hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants.

Former US attorney John Kirby said there will be strong opposition to the proposed rule change, but it will be difficult to prevent it from being enacted.

“Congress can step in and pass a law that just makes what the administration's trying to do impossible,” Kirby said.

Critics have called the move an abuse of executive power. Meanwhile, supporters argue that it is humane and doesn't affect the millions of undocumented migrants without immediate family in the US.

These new rules that Obama administration has implemented is an open door for people to make illegal business and get married to obtain documents and for some other the citizens to make money getting married to illegal aliens . In the next election vote for anyone no matter what party, any candidate no matter how bad it is will be better than Obama. Obama wants to destroy this country destroy its economy, increase our debt and fill the country of uneducated illegal, like if importing illegal people who works in farms and construction workers we could make this country a better nation what he is doing is making a chaos.
