Minutes of the meeting with Congresswoman Anna Eshoo
The meeting started at 10:00 a.m. with Anna Eshoo being introduced by the Mayor of Palo Alto. Prior to start of the meeting Anna Eshoo’s staff collected questions if any from all attendees which were to be answered by Anna Eshoo after her opening statement. She read out questions in sequence and publicly responded to each one of them. In response to the question asked by “Kashmir” about the delay in 485 processing, she said that:
a) They have written to Don Neufield(who is te CSC Director) questioning them about the delay.
b) She also mentioned that Mike Honda, Pete Stark and other Congresspersons of neighbouring Districts have already written to Don in this regard following petitions to them by 485 applicants and that there is some awareness of this issue in Congress now.
c) She also explained to the rest of the group about the 485 application process and mentioned that they enjoyed more legal protection than is given to other categories.
After the session ended, folks from Immigrationportal went up to speak to her and handed the petition for expediting the 485 process. She recognized Kashmir and told him that her staff is working on the issue.
When asked about what specific action was being taken and that we expected no less than an action plan, she said that action can only be taken by the agencies and that she and her staff would continue to hammer at them for results. When asked about what more could 485 applicants do towards the cause, she said that they have done a good job of organizing and bringing awareness as well as communicating and that her staff would not rest until some solution is reached.
She repeated that 485 applicants had legal protection not available to other categories to which team members from the 485 group mentioned that this was true only in principle. Basic issues like inability to travel out of the country due to delays in processing of the Advanced Parole document and changes in Job Descriptions resulting in adverse effects to the 485 application was definitely not protection enough.
A highlight of the discussion was that her staff member, Anne Ream had received a call from INS saying that they would respond to Anna Eshoo’s office in 3-4 weeks on the matter. The session ended at 11:30 a.m.
Seven people from the forum made it to the meeting and more participation would definitely increase visibility. Kashmir, 140_takes_for_ever, San_gc_wait, extra_dry_gin, todo_or_not_todo + 1, mazdur_desi and get_moving were present.
