* [Reproduced from U.S. Public Law 101-649 of November 29, 1990. The Introductory Note was prepared for International Legal Materials by Arnold H. Leibowitz, Cameron & Hornbostel, Washington, and I.L.M. Corresponding Editor for Immigration. The 1986 Immigration Reform and Control Act appears at 26 I.L.M. 479 (1987); the Immigration Marriage Fraud Amendments of 1986 appear at 26 I.L.M. 479, 524 (1987).]

1 The text uses the numbers in FY'95 and afterwards. From FY 1992-94, the family immigration total is 465,000 visas and, therefore, the immediate relative total which would give rise to an automatic increase in this level would be visas above 239,000.

2 This, perhaps, could be changed by regulation but it may be that the statute will be interpreted so as not to permit this.
