While he stood lookout, Lopez picked the lock on a door, entered the office, turned on a small desk lamp, and then quickly rummaged through a pile of papers on a desk and searched a filing cabinet. ¶She found the folder she was looking for, copied down a name and phone number on a scrap of paper, glanced around to make sure she hadn't left a mess, and hurried back out of the office to her own room in the shelter. ¶Then she braced herself, waitingfor the security guard to show up and demand his promised night of sex. It's hard to imagine visiting foreign businesspeople, entertainers, and just plain tourists giving blood samples in return for short-term visas, but some people advocate just that as the only way to bar entry to people who won't admit they carry HIV.
A Mexico native who was a permanent resident of the United States from 1987 until 2000, when he was deported as an "aggravated felon" for several drunken driving convictions, claims in a federal lawsuit filed today in Pittsburgh that he should have never lost his green card. Jose Pedro Verde-Rodriguez, age unavailable, is sitting in the Allegheny County Jail while the government prosecutes him for re- entering the country. He said in his lawsuit that an Arizona federal judge wrongfully declared him an "aggravated felon" and told him that he was subject to automatic deportation and that there was nothing he could do about it. The U.S. Supreme Court in 2004 ruled in a different case that drunken driving convictions don`t count as aggravated felonies for the purpose of deportation h...
LOS ANGELES - David Joyce marched his way to the front of the U.S. immigration line using his pocketbook, sinking half a million dollars into a Vermont ski resort. The British citizen had spent years in a futile effort to secure green cards for himself, his wife and their 9-year-old son so they could relocate to sunny Florida. Then, a fellow emigre tipped him off to a little-known federal program that helps foreigners gain permanent U.S. residency by investing in American businesses.
I've talked to about 40 companies in the last year that have capital issues," says James Candido, who runs the state's EB-5 program. "With banks the way they are, it's more difficult to get loans, and angel investors don't have as much to give. Understand: A lot of investors don't actually move to Vermont, but the benefit they are bringing to Vermont is so huge. "I can't say I report to the public," [Robert Kruszka] says. "I believe we're supposed to. I don't remember having to report to Congress, even though I think I have to. I haven't been asked to do one." "I don't see them cutting the line," Jay Peak's [Bill Stenger] says. "I see them investing in areas [where] we desperately need capital, and they are getting something in exchange."
The rule proposes to require permanent residents with Permanent Resident Cards without expiration dates and who have not already applied for new cards with an expiration date to apply during a 120-day filing period that would be established by a final rulemaking. The green card holder can get a new "card" by filing Form I-90, along with the filing and biometrie fees. Currently, the total cost is $370 and includes the filing fee of $290 for the 1-90 and an $80 biometrie fee for photographs and fingerprints. Permanent Resident Cards (Forms I-551) are issued to permanent residents to serve as evidence of immigration status, registration, identity, and employment authorization; they also serve as entry documents upon return from trips outside of the United States. Officials of the USCIS ins...
Once the HPPS applicant had documentation of marriage to a United States citizen, as charged in the indictment, HPPS employees prepared a green card application package, including supporting documents such as a fraudulent birth certificate and fictitious letters from employers and banks, and mailed the application to USCIS. Then the HPPS applicant received an appointment for an interview with USCIS. According to the indictment, [Beverly Mozer-Browne]'s brother, a district adjudication officer for USCIS, approved the applications without requiring the HPPS applicant to appear for the interview. Browne generated a form and a green card was issued to the HPPS applicant. From April 2001 until November 2005, Mozer-Browne, Browne and their coconspirators allegedly provided hundreds of fraudul...
According to a report by Farah Stockman in "The Boston Globe," a "last-minute change to the bill could have sweeping implications inside the United States: It would strip green-card holders and other legal residents of the right to challenge their detention in court if they are accused of being 'enemy combatants.' An earlier draft of the bill sparked criticism because it removed the rights of Guantanamo Bay detainees to challenge their detentions in federal court. But changes made over the weekend during negotiations between the White House and key Republicans in Congress go even further, making it legal for noncitizens inside the United States to be detained indefinitely, without access to the court system, until the 'war on terror' is over," Stockman wrote on September 28. "In the or...
If, however, at that time of the freen card approval, the couple as been married for less than two years, USCIS will issue a conditional green card valid for two years. A year and nine months after the issue date on the green card, the permanent resident must file a petition to remove the condition on the green card. The petition is to be filed jointly and signed by both spouses. Accompanying the petition must be proof that the couple continued to live together after the issuance of the initial green card, that they continued to commingle their assets and their debts and acknowledgements from friends and family that they have held themselves out to be a couple. If the alien spouse is in the US pursuant to lawful entry, that non-US spouse is allowed to petition for an adjustment of statu...
It's just such a natural fit for New Mexico to be at the forefront of something like this," Film Office Director [Lisa Strout] says. "This is a state that really respects the environment, and so it's only natural that we're going to be the first state to really take a stand. "A lot of people are aware of the issue, but I don't really know of anyone who has studied the impacts extensively," New Mexico Wilderness Alliance spokesman Nathan Newcomer says. "That said, we're obviously supportive of the state's efforts to try and monitor the film industry's impact on the environment." "This is still in the early stages, but I think it's going to happen really quickly," Strout says. "In fact, I think we're going to be able to see our first truly 'green' production pretty much immediately."
