Afghan Allies Protection Act of 2023

This bill amends the Afghan Allies Protection Act of 2009 to help Afghans who worked with U.S. forces or organizations in Afghanistan obtain special immigrant visas. It increases the annual visa cap from 38,500 to 58,500 and extends the processing deadline from 2024 to 2029. The bill requires U.S. agencies to develop a strategy for efficient processing, allows for reopening denied applications, provides reimbursement for medical exams, and permits virtual interviews. It also mandates annual reports on processing efficiency and backlogs to improve the visa application process for affected individuals.
