Veteran Service Recognition Act of 2025

The Veteran Service Recognition Act of 2025 requires the Departments of Defense, Homeland Security, and Veterans Affairs to study noncitizen veterans removed from the U.S. between 1990 and 2025, including their service records and reasons they were denied benefits. It creates a system to identify noncitizen veterans before removal proceedings begin and establishes a Military Family Immigration Advisory Committee to review cases and recommend against removal for veterans. The bill also creates a program to streamline citizenship for noncitizen service members, allows adjustment of status for certain removed veterans, and modifies immigration requirements for family members of service members. These provisions directly affect noncitizen veterans, active duty service members, and their family members who are not U.S. citizens. The law aims to ensure veterans' service is properly recognized in immigration proceedings and to facilitate their path to citizenship.
