WASHINGTON - U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), marking a significant milestone in its efforts to provide relief to victims of crimes, has for the second straight year approved 10,000 petitions for U nonimmigrant status, also referred to as the U-visa.
On an annual basis, 10,000 U-visas are set aside for victims of crime who have suffered substantial mental or physical abuse and are willing to help law enforcement authorities investigate or prosecute crime.
ICE fact sheet provides information to designated School officials(DSOs) and responsible officers(ROs) in order to help F, M, or J nonimmigrant visa holders (including both primary and dependent status holders) obtain driver’s licenses or state identification cards.
My US citizen father is filing an I-130 for me; will my husband automatically be accepted at the same time as me if I get accepted?
Your father does not have to file a separate application for your husband. In the various papers you get from the consulate and the National Visa Center, you can indicate that he is getting his green card with you.
My J-1 at Cornell Psychology Department expired on Aug 31 2011 after 5 years. Currently I'm spending my grace period. I'm exempt from the 2 years rule. I was wondering if it could be further extended. If not, would it be possible for my department to issue a new DS-2019 (J1) instead? I have only been working here for about a year and have been at a different university before.
Extension is possible only if the program rules permit it. The worst case scenario in extension or new 2019 as I see it can be only that you have to go get a new via stamp.
I am a UK resident and currently have a B1 visa with 7 years to run. When I enter the US via LAX they always stamp my passport and issue the I-94 card for 12 months. We always leave before the date given. Question - do we have to go back to the UK (our country of origin) or could we go to Canada for a week and then re-enter the US?
You can go to a third country, but your entry back into USA can be declined if CBP believes you are spending more time in USA than you should. Typically, B visas are for brief visits (may be six months or less in a 12-24 month period).
US Labor Department postpones revising wage calculations for H-2B program. Delay avoids administering the H-2B program under potentially conflicting court orders.

WASHINGTON—U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) seeks public comments on a proposed rule published in the Federal Register today that would enable USCIS to process certain applications approved between 1995 and 1998 by immigrant investors under the fifth preference employment-based immigrant visa classification, also known as EB-5.
I want to know how I can come back to US. I came US 2006 like a guest, stayed about 5 years & left US. But my family still there, ex-wife, two daughters older 20 year old & younger 17. When my daughter turns 21 year old can she apply for family reunification, especially for me?
One of the ways could be for your daughter to apply for your green card when she turns 21. The problem is, if you were unlawfully present in USA for more than a year, you may be barred from entering USA for 10 years.
If one applies through EB2 category can the PERM also be avoided then?
You can avoid the need for PERM through EB-2 only if you are applying for a National Interest Waiver.

Immigration.com has provided fabulous service for the multiple cases that I referred to them for my firm. Their clarity in approach and domain expertise makes these elaborate process seem very simple. Staff employees are courteous and sensitive to your needs. The best part is personal attention from Mr. Rajiv Khanna to every case that I dealt with him on. Nothing but FABULOUS is my experience. All the best to Immigrations.com and the firm. Abhishek
I would like to thank Mr. Rajiv and team for the excellent service they have been providing me for my GC processing.Ours is not a straight case. Rajiv's timely legal advice, ability to analyze the situation was very helpful when we encountered numerous twists in our GC case. The staff is quick and prompt in processing filing requests, setting up appointments with attorneys when required. Many thanks to Heather, Seema and Prerna for speeding up my case - Suman.
American Indians born in Canada (with at least 50% American Indian blood) cannot be denied admission to the United States. However, a record of admission for permanent residence will be created if an American Indian born in Canada wishes to reside permanently in the United States.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is publishing a proposed rule that could save U.S. businesses more than $23 million over the next 10 years by establishing an advance registration process for U.S. employers seeking to file H-1B petitions for foreign workers in specialty occupations. The proposed electronic system would minimize administrative burdens and expenses related to the H-1B petition process—including reducing the need for employers to submit petitions for which visas would not be available under the statutory visa cap.
During my immigration processing, I have dealt with many immigration lawyers with rather disappointing results. The Law Offices of Rajiv S. Khanna stand out in many ways for their professionalism, quality of customer service, promptness of business, profound legal knowledge and expertise, and above all, professional ethics. My case was complicated - I had an I 751 petition denied for lack of supporting evidence and did not have my US Citizen husband's support. So I wanted to get an H1 visa to be able to stay in the country. Mr. Khanna and his team members really helped me with my case by giving me a very sound advise. I found several differential advantages of Mr. Khanna and his team members: They were able to grasp and line up all the facts of my case with no confusion or room for interpretation. The did legal research for my case before giving me legal advise and BEFORE deciding whether to take my case or not. So they do not waste their clients' money. The work that they performed on my case was done very promptly without leaving me up in the air waiting for the results. The work that they did for me left me confident that I got the best legal help available on my case, which is very important as dealing with USCIS and Immigration lawyers can be very frustrating. Overall, Mr. Khanna and his team members saved me time, money, frustration, trouble, stress, and made working with them an enjoyable experience.
Mr. Khanna proved to be the best lawyer I had to deal with. I highly recommend the Law Offices of Rajiv S. Khanna to everyone without any doubts. I hope I will not sound too strong if I say - if there's anything that can be done on complicated immigration cases, Mr. Khanna and his team will do the best job for the best value with professionalism, honesty, ethics, and integrity that makes them markedly stand out amongst the immigration lawyers. If I ever need any legal help for my immigration, I will not go to any other place.
This is the second time I am dealing with Mr Khanna and his team. I must say it's a team of not only highly talented but also very helpful people. I got some great sugggestions from everyone I delt with in this firm, everybody at the firm specially Anna always made me feel very welcomed with any questions I had. I would highly recommend Mr Khanna's lawfirm for immigration related work. Thank you so much for everything. Thanks a lot for everything
