AI Summary
This bill, the Canadian Snowbird Visa Act, seeks to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to authorize the admission of Canadian retirees as long-term visitors for pleasure (under section 101(a)(15)(B) of the Act). Specifically, it would allow Canadian citizens who are at least 50 years old, maintain a residence in Canada, own or rent a residence in the U.S., and meet other requirements to be admitted to the U.S. for up to 240 days within a 365-day period without being considered to have intent to abandon their Canadian residency. The bill also amends the Internal Revenue Code to treat these Canadian visitors as nonresident aliens for tax purposes.
