A Taiwanese American is an American of Taiwanese ancestry. This term also sometimes fluidly applies to those whose parents or relatives are associated with the post-1949 Republic of China. Whether Taiwanese Americans also count as Chinese Americans is a controversial political issue.
From the late 1950s until the 1970s, many well-educated Taiwanese came to the United States to fill in the brain drain going on at the time, forming the first wave of post-war Taiwanese immigration. Their entry into the United States was facilitated by the immigration act of 1965, which removed many of the restrictions against Chinese immigration.
