Pew Research Center: How Asian Americans see the U.S. immigration system By Ziyao Tian , Carolyne Im , Sahana Mukherjee and Abby Budiman

This report has many interesting facts about the views of Asian Americans on immigration. 

With more than half of Asian Americans born outside the United States, a share that rises to 67% among Asian American adults, engagement with the U.S. immigration system is a common experience.  And many see the immigration systems as needing change.

Asian American immigrants interact with the nation’s immigration system in different ways. Some Asian immigrants came to the U.S. under differing visa categories, including student visas and temporary work visas. Others obtained permanent residencies through family sponsorship, employment-based preferences, and diversity and refugee categories, among others.
