Comparison to Other Visa Programs for Work and Education purposes
How do Dreamers compare to analogous populations such as international students in higher education or employment-based permanent immigrant visa recipients? In an article published on the Pew Research Center's website, there were around 1,200,000 foreign students in the USA in 2017. From 2008 to 2014 700,000 foreign students have been able to stay in the country after graduation to work under a temporary program called Optional Practical Training or OPT. The program has existed since 1947 and is not scheduled to end. Most beneficiaries are from China, India, South Korea but with Mexico being number nine. Similarly, employment-based immigrants have amounted around 100 to 140,000 approvals, so since Daca was approved six years ago, there have been around 700,000 employment-based visas approved. According to a report by the Congressional Research Service, focusing on immigratioin employment trends, the top 5 countries in decreasing order are India, Philippines, China, South Korea, and Mexico.
