While Tsukermans wife Ina and son Aleksandr have already been allowed to emigrate. the Soviet authorities have rejected Tsukermans repeated attempts to join his loved ones in Israel. In part due to the unceasing efforts of the Union of Councils for Soviet Jewry and the Congressional Call to Conscience Vigil. Tsukerman was recently released from prison.
