Family-Based System: With consideration of some factors, family-based immigration needs to be adjusted upon the number of applicants, the population of the country, the contribution of the family as long as they will not be in the assistant program list.
Asylum: Upon war or disaster, the immigration system will consider accepting a percentage of the fleeing families to enter US as the United Nation deemed to be fair share in the world.
