No catch. It's shortening a 10+ yr and $20K-$30K process (in which 20% of applications are rejected), to a much shorter easier process where families can stay together.
I speak from personal experience.
my husband was allowed to live with me on and off depending on the whim of the Dept of Honeland Security. He was interviewed & received permission in 1 yr cycles. it was stressful and eventually was the main cause for tge end of our marriage.
@Bliss : ( I hate to hear that.
@Bliss I'm seeing something about them making the process simpler for people who are already married, but may have been living in the US undocumented. That would be a sea change, and help a lot of families, if so.
