HR 6822 United States House · 117th Congress

For the relief of Vitaly Stepanov and Yuliya Stepanova.

This bill, HR 6822, is a private legislative measure granting permanent residency to two specific individuals: Vitaly Stepanov and Yuliya Stepanova. It waives standard immigration requirements for them, allowing them to apply for permanent residency without being subject to typical grounds for removal or denial. The bill requires their application to be filed within two years of enactment and reduces the visa quota for their country of origin by one. As a private relief bill, it directly affects only these two named individuals and does not establish broader policy changes.
