Moroccans are among the top three Arab countries for immigrant visas to the United States in 2022.

The U.S. State Department shared new figures, showing that the Kingdom’s nationals were granted 4,065 immigrant visas, less than the Yemenis (5,222) and Egyptians (5,293).

In total, the total number of immigrant visas to the United States worldwide had reached nearly 493,000 last year.

These types of visas allow immigrants to reside permanently in the United States and are granted on the basis of family ties, employment, asylum or selection under the Immigration Diversity Program.
