Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The Quota System Among the classes of immigrants exempt from this limit are immediate relatives of U.S. citizens (including spouses, parents and minor unmarried children) and certain people granted adjustment of status as refugees or asylees or under the cancellation-of-removal provisions.
Detailed explanation-2: -Why were the immigrants from Mexico not included in the quota system set by the immigration acts? Farmers needed lots of cheap labor.
