Silicon Valley Immigration Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
Former Secretary of State and advisor to two presidents, Condoleezza Rice, addressed the San Jose Silicon Valley Chamber of Commerce earlier this week at their annual fundraiser. She warned about the need for immigration reform (http://www.mercurynews.com/breaking-news/ci_13717697), explaining "The United States of America had better reform its immigration policy to make sure that the most ambitious people in the world still want to be a part of us. We are a society of immigrants, and if we ever think that we can close our doors, we will suffer the same fate of those in Europe and other places."

As an immigration lawyer, I have posted before about the need for our immigration laws (http://www.siliconvalleyimmigrationlawyer.com/2009/10/immigration-laws-must-allow-th.html)to encourage the world's best and brightest to come and stay in the U.S. As for Europe, many European countries have far stricter immigration laws than the U.S. While I don't know what the sorry "fate" is that Former Secretary of State Rice was alluding to in her address, stricter immigration laws are not the answer to raising the U.S. out of its current economic downturn and high unemployment.

U.S. companies are also clamoring for more H1B visas to allow foreign software engineers and other skilled workers into the country.

The 65,000 visas allotted for 2007 were taken by the end of May last year, months before the end of the fiscal year in September, said Jack Krumholtz, the head of Microsoft Corp.'s government affairs office. It is also difficult to get permanent U.S. residency for foreign workers who would like to stay, he said.

"This is becoming for high-tech companies a huge retention issue," Krumholtz said. "We will start to see highly valued tech employees emigrate back to their home countries."

I am planning to sponsor for my in-laws and have a list of all the required documents, but I have a question about the financial/property documents they need to to take. The reason being, my father-in-law is retired and since then they have been living based on he pension and rental from some of the properties they own and have not filed tax returns.

Will getting the property evaluation and showing cash balance sufficient OR do I need them to take any additional documentation. Their source of income is just the pension and rental properties. Since most of the transactions happen in CASH in India, they don't have bank statements or records to support the rental property, except for the original property documents associated with the rental properties.

Since I am the sponsor, I have got all the required docs from my side both immigration and financial docs properly. I believe, my in-laws also need to get the property and other docs handy to prove the ties back to the home country.


Please advice...

Great work !

Interesting article regarding how a Utah congressional primary could affect the Senate House conference on CIR.
http://www.opinionjournal.com/diary/?id=110008446

It looks like the anti-immigrant groups are pumping money into the campaign of a Tancredo clone in an attempt to unseat a pro-immigrant Republican Congressman.
Mr. Throckmorton benefited from $80,000 in radio and billboard ads donated by anti-immigration groups upset by Mr. Cannon's strong support of a guest-worker approach.
The anti-immigration groups are probably counting on a loss by the incumbent congressman to help convince other House Republicans that opposing S 2611 would help their reelection chances
A loss by Mr. Cannon would have profound political consequences. Conservative activist Grover Norquist has called the Utah congressman "the president's strongest ally in maintaining a pro-immigrant GOP." Mr. Cannon has long been one of the few members to point out the genuine need the U.S. economy has for new workers. He has publicly chided some of his colleagues for "demagoguing the immigration issue--some to raise money, some for attention." He has pointed out that some anti-immigration groups have ties to environmental and population-control extremists.

If they succeed, CIR would probably go nowhere this year, or would get most of the pro-immigrant sections stripped out in conference. From the looks of it, these groups are pulling out all the stops. Just goes to show what we are up against.

Nope, I wasn't contacted for anything before approval.

that's so cute!!!

Yes. You can check. But you need a login to PERM website. Employer may not be willing to create on for employee because with that login, you can view other petition as well. Thanks kumaresh

Greetings,

My father (over 60 years) is coming to the States in June 15, and his B1 visa expires on June 24. However, my father is planning to stay until August 20.

My question is:
Will he be able to stay after his visa expiration date?
In other words, when will his I-94 expire?


Regards,

This obviously depends on the reason it was refurbished, but I would expect that most refurb cameras are warranty returns that have been fixed of whatever the warranty problem was. Since the repair would replace the failed part, it would be fair to say that they are at least as good as the original one (and if it's a "common problem part" then it's even likely that a new, better part has replaced the faulty part, which would make it BETTER than the original one).

And obviously, with consideration for the reputation of the company, I would expect that Nikon doesn't sell refurbished cameras that have any notable faults (scrapes, scratches, dust, etc) - if the damage isn't in an easy to replace part, the camera is probably used for scrap parts for other repair projects, or just destroyed.

Of course, I would check what the terms and conditions for returns, refunds and warranty is - are you paying less because you get less warranty, or simply because it has 10 or 100 exposures on the "clock", or because you get less warranty or other rights to complain?
