President Obama will send up to 1,200 National Guard troops to the Southwest border and increase spending on law enforcement, yielding to demands from both Republican and Democratic lawmakers there that border security be tightened, administration officials said.
That was the opening of an article in the New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/26/us/26border.html?partner=rss&emc=rss). Here are additional excerpts:
Homeland Security officials said that the troops would provide support to law enforcement officers already working along the border by helping observe and monitor traffic between official crossing points, and would help analyze trafficking patterns in hopes of intercepting illegal drug shipments. They performed similar tasks in an earlier deployment along the border from 2006 to 2008, when they also assisted with road and fence construction. The troops have not been involved directly in intercepting border crossers.
In addition to the soldiers, the White House said it would request $500 million in supplemental funds to pay for more federal agents, prosecutors, investigators and technology at the border.
Homeland Security officials have said that they have significantly increased border security efforts since Mr. Obama took office. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, a former governor of Arizona, said last month that the border was “as secure now as it has ever been,” though she conceded there was room for improvement. Critics on the right derided her remarks as out of touch.

Hi,
My 6 years of H1B will be up soon and my NIW I-140 petition is pending. I have received my EAD card though.
What options do I have - will I be able to extend my H1B for another year? Can I use the EAD card as it is without getting the I-140 approved, even though it is risky?
Thanks.
Extend H1B also

it is increasing to 1225 I think in Nov sometime. Not this month. My attorney said $1000 yesterday, so that's what I am paying.

A good friend of mine is getting divorced with her husband. The husband is the primary employment based green card applicant and their dates are current.
Will her I-485 be denied after the divorce?
The husband is willing to wait till the green card is approved before the divorce.
If she gets her green card, will it be revoked after the divorce?
Will her I-485 be denied after the divorce?
Yes.
If she gets her green card, will it be revoked after the divorce?
Not likely unless there is collusion or fraud involved.

A friend of mine told me that we do not have to pay Social Security Tax while working on EAD. Does anybody know if this is true ?
That would be a huge plus in case its true.

My case is filed in EB-2 although I am eligible to apply in EB-1.
When I filed, there was no retrogression for India, and so it made no sense to apply in EB-1.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
My PD is Dec 2004
and I have a 140 approved.

no labor is position dependent not person dependent. You cannot make it go faster based on earlier 140.

mrdelhiite is correct.
If your company is regularly advertising and they have all the ad's in place as required by PERM , they can file your PERM and you can get your labor approval. If in case your labor is approved before 30th july you would be able to file concurrent 140 & 485 and can retain your PD too.
good luck.

Hi
I just came across the News about Donations by Indian Legal Immigrant to the US hospital. Link is given below
timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/822912.cms?headline=NRI~donates~$30~million~to~US~ hospital (http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/822912.cms?headline=NRI~donates~$30~million~to~US~ hospital)"]
I am sure there are several other legal immigrants donations to the US hospitals, Colleges and Universities etc.
I am sure that if we can link those all in one thread and later on can be compiled by IV to make strong point that Legal immigrant apart from generating lots of jobs and economical growth for US also contribute generously to various progressive causes, by the wealth that they make because of their creative mind and skills.
On other hand there is a debate about undocumented workers relying on the US tax payers resources.

Personal experience
This was in 2006.
H1b applied on Feb-2-2006 with old passport expiry date Oct-14-2006
H1b approved on May-9 dates May-9-2006 to Jan-31-2009
I applied for passport renewal sometime in March-2006
New passport sent by Washington DC with date Apr-25-2006 to Apr-24-2016.
So i had no issues getting h1b approval with passport expiring in few months.
i don't know if your attorney is right/wrong, but sharing my personal experience here.
thank you and good luck buddy.

Are there instances where the processing time before interview will exceed to more than 3 mos? Is it also true that during the embassy interview, you are currently working? I am a nurse and my agency told me that I should still be practicing as a nurse during the time my packet 4 comes.
I'm really having some problems because I am intending to go to Ireland by June. But now here comes the Mar 1, 06 PD. What if it would take me again another year to wait for my US visa. I am really sick of waiting.

Consult a good lawyer, prepare an appropriate reply based on true situation. If they feel that the request is genuine, they will approve else be prepared for the worst.
To be frank, i don't think any company like the one you explained even exists! I will be surprised if it does, and if it does I won't wonder if there is no RFE in the current enforcement days from USCIS.

Hello
My wife and I will be Canadian Permanent Residents in a few months. I am on EAD with I485 pending and have AP. She is on H1B
We will need to Travel to Canada for Immigrant Landing formalities after we get PR.
How can we enter back in US so that my AOS and her H1B Status is not affected?
Thanks

Hello,
If someone is going to be filing for I-140 on a recently approved EB2 (India) while on H1-B in USA with same employer, is it better to check the first box (Alien will apply for visa at a consulate abroad - meaning consular processing of 485) instead of AOS? My understanding is once I-140 is approved and if 485 dates become current, then if CP has been indicated on I-140, then the consulate abroad will order visa number in the month after and the person should get an interview call, even if the dates retrogress back in the following months?
In that case indicating CP is better than AOS on I-140? If so, can the person continue to work on H-1 while waiting for the interview call at consulate abroad?
Thoughts appreciated. Anyone please?
Thanks

Congress Must Stop Playing Immigration Futbol - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/cq/20100708/pl_cq_politics/politics3698103_1)
..... Even as they battle each other, both parties are losing, too. By demanding ever harsher enforcement measures, Republicans are kicking away support from Latinos, the nation's fastest-growing demographic group.
And Democrats, by insisting on "comprehensive" reform to appease liberal and Latino activists, are losing the chance to enact incremental changes that might build a consensus for full reform.
....The idea of incremental reform has been advocated for years by the founder of the National Immigration Forum, Rick Swartz, but it has been resisted -- and still is -- by many activists who demand nothing less than earned legalization for most of the country's 12 million illegal immigrants.
.... A "down payment" bill ought to pass this year. After all, 11 Senate Republicans have supported immigration reform in the past. But the bottom line is that nothing at all will pass this year. What about next year?
Republican Conference Chairman Lamar Alexander (Tenn.) told me that 2011 should be the year for action both on the nation's debt problem and immigration -- but he said that "border security first" would continue to be the GOP mantra.
.... You'd like to think that maybe Republicans and Democrats could act like adults, call a truce and agree to compromise reform legislation gradually leading to legal status for illegal immigrants.
You'd like to think it, but it would be utterly -- and sadly -- out of character for those in power in Washington, D.C.

I just talked to my lawyer again, and he told me that I�m overreacting! He kept saying that this is not a big deal at all for having the wrong background on the petition letter submitted to USCIS. He said that the new petition letter, I-129 and documents do not need to be resubmitted to USCIS. My lawyer also said that he can simply solve the problem by sending me the new petition letter. Accordingly, I can then bring this new letter to the consular for the visa interview instead of going through the resubmission. He also said that there is nothing to be worry about PIMS or anything. Could you please advise what to do? Pls help. Thank you very much.

My fianc�e lives in Mexico and I live in the United States. We are planning on getting married this summer. As soon as I return, I'm planning on beginning the process so that my future wife could come to the United States to live with me. We plan on getting married in the Catholic Church, but we have doubts if that type of marriage is a valid one for this specific situation. We just don't want a delay in the process simply because it was a religious marriage and we want to be with each other as soon as possible. My question is: Is a religious marriage valid for this situation? Which one would you recommend: Having a civil marriage or a religious marriage in Mexico?
