    AR-11 problem - parents refused entry

    This is quite disgusting :mad:. Your parents would be perhaps above 50. Imagine the immigration officers suspecting your father and your mother having ties with terrorism. What danger an old lady could pose? But, this is overzealousness and it could have been sorted out right there at the...

    8/9/00 - Updated Tracker List

    No Title Some first glance observation from Crazy boy’s data: 1. I-485 applications seems to be processed according to EAC # and not by PD, RD or ND or EB category. (One can derive ND from EAC #). 2. For now, it looks VSC is processing I-485 applications with EAC # 99229 (which means ND of...

    case tranfered to local ins how to follow up

    No Title Ragji: I really feel sorry for you. After 5 years in to process VSC should approve your case instead of sending it to Newark office. I am amazed by VSC\'s inefficiencies. At times they send RFEs! I mean give me a break - after 4-5 years instead of approving the case transferring it...

    Class action lawsuit against the VSC

    No Title I would also join. Thank you all for the initiative. INS said 180-360 days in the I-485 receipt. Very soon it will be a year and I don\'t think INS would have done anything by then. But, don\'t I need to give them 360 days at least? EB2, ND: Aug 25, 1999; PD: Aug 1998; FP Done.

    30-day visitor visa; Why should you write to your senators? Whom-what to write?

    Why should you write? My point is, IT WORKED ONCE AND IF ENOUGH OF US PROTEST; IT WOULD WORK AGAIN. After all, no terrorist is going to go back in 30 days. Similarly, limiting visits to just 30 days would not prevent the terrorists from committing the crimes in 30 days. Nor do the folks we call...

    30-day visitor visa; Why should you write to your senators? Whom-what to write?

    Why should one write to the lawmakers (senators, congressmen)? What difference would it make? The reason is simple. Your opinion counts. A couple of years ago, greencard processing was taking forever, anywhere from 3 to 5 years. (Meanwhile would-be-immigrants would get frustrated, sometimes...

    Visitor visa proposal must be stopped

    Just ignore. Anand: Whenever one tries to stand up or do soemthing good that is in immigrants\' interests, some opposing and totally insane voices will be heard. Just ignore and keep going. I guess the more people write to the senators, the better.

    Having a baby ..

    Oppose the proposed 30 days visitor\'s visa regulation. First to answer your question, I think if she has a letter that says you are preganant and that\'s the reason she is coming here for help, in theory she should get 3-6 months visa. I don\'t know whether the issuing official will indeed do...

    Only 1 month stay for visitors

    No Title Avantika: Thanks for signing the petition. Signing the petition alone would not do. If at all the petition goes to INS, they can simply toss it away without even giving it a look. However, lawmakers have real power to tell INS what to do and what not. Besides, (if I am correct)...
