The Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2026 allows eligible Ukrainian nationals currently in the United States to obtain permanent resident status through a streamlined process. To qualify, applicants must be Ukrainian citizens or residents who were admitted or paroled into the country after February 20, 2014, have passed security background checks, and are physically present in the U.S., along with qualifying family members like spouses, children, or caregivers. The Department of Homeland Security must determine that each applicant poses no threat to national security or public safety, though certain criminal and security-related grounds for inadmissibility may be waived for humanitarian reasons or family unity. The legislation requires the Department to issue implementation guidance within 180 days and finalize it within one year, while applicants can request fee waivers and cannot be deported while their applications are pending. The bill exempts these Ukrainian immigrants from numerical caps on immigration benefits, allowing them to adjust status without using up visa allocation slots.
