The Immigration Service now has the discretionary power to keep families united even though all their members do not meet the five-year residency requirement.
(A) all their members do not meet the five-year residency requirement
(B) not all their members meet the five-year residency requirement
(C) all their members have not met the requirement for a five-year residency
(D) not all their members have resided for five years, a requirement
(E) all their members have not resided for five years, as required
Charged up again to beat the beast :)

I feel B is the best. Most concise, going by my instincts :)

IMO - B

A ,C , E- it is saying that none of the members meet the requirement

D is awkward. Hence B

IMO B

five yr residency is the requirement here...

C,D,E - ackward.

btween A and B.

The sentence is tryin to make the meaning "not all members" - means there could be few members nt eligible but not all.

A - is not expressing the same.

I will go with B.

A seems to mean that none meet the requirement.
