Official abstract

This rule adopts, with one change, an interim rule published in the Federal Register on July 1, 1993, by the Immigration and Naturalization Service (Service), which implemented the Chinese Student Protection Act of 1992 (CSPA). Although the Service no longer accepts applications from CSPA principals, this rule finalizes the procedures by which the spouses and children of CSPA beneficiaries who have been temporarily residing in the United States may become lawful permanent residents of this country. It also removes the procedures for granting voluntary departure for certain dependents pursuant to recent legislative changes.
