“mishu,” I can answer part of your question – NONE of which has to do with ethereal “fairness.”

As I understand it, the U.S. allots a certain number of immigrants from some countries…when that limit is reached, others must wait.

In other cases, paperwork was not done properly or filed through incorrect channels. THERE ARE GOOD REASONS for the paperwork: among others, SOVEREIGNTY. SECURITY.

I know of cases where applicants tried to “cheat” or “shortcut” the process – and are politely told “where to go.” And rightly so.

The only folks I know of who “waltz in” are diplomats…hardly typical “immigrants.” Unless you are suggesting the illegal aliens who “waltz over” our southern border….

Play by the rules or suffer the consequences.
