Abstract

The paper discusses the diverse modes of entry and legal statuses of African immigrants in the United States. This is vital as it will have a bearing on the integration of the immigrants within the American society. Like all U.S. immigrant groups, most African immigrants are admitted through family reunification channels; however, African immigrants are much more likely than other groups to be admitted as refugees or through the diversity visa program which aims to increase flows from underrepresented countries by allowing immigration from those countries of individuals without a formal job offer or strong family ties in the U.S.A.
