Thanks in advance. God please help us.

Restoration of Section 245(i) of the INA and Impact on Adjudications

The LIFE Amendments of 2000 (Public Law 106-554) changed the sunset date of section 245(i) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) from January 14, 1998 to April 30, 2001. Generally, section 245(i) allows an individual to apply for adjustment of status notwithstanding the fact that he or she entered without inspection, overstayed or worked without authorization. A special fee of $1000 must be paid with the application, with certain limited exceptions. Individuals are eligible provided that that they initiate the permanent residence process (either though the filing of a labor certification application or permanent residence petition, whichever would establish a priority date) on or before the sunset date, now April 30 of this year. INS must be convinced that the application or petition filed prior to the sunset is "approvable at the time of filing," and under the revised provision, an individual must have been physically present in the United States on December 21, 2000, the date the extension was enacted.
 
No Title

It means that INS will be inundated with all sorts of applications in the next months...
