President Obama will send up to 1,200 National Guard troops to the Southwest border and increase spending on law enforcement, yielding to demands from both Republican and Democratic lawmakers there that border security be tightened, administration officials said.
That was the opening of an article in the New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/26/us/26border.html?partner=rss&emc=rss). Here are additional excerpts:
Homeland Security officials said that the troops would provide support to law enforcement officers already working along the border by helping observe and monitor traffic between official crossing points, and would help analyze trafficking patterns in hopes of intercepting illegal drug shipments. They performed similar tasks in an earlier deployment along the border from 2006 to 2008, when they also assisted with road and fence construction. The troops have not been involved directly in intercepting border crossers.
In addition to the soldiers, the White House said it would request $500 million in supplemental funds to pay for more federal agents, prosecutors, investigators and technology at the border.
Homeland Security officials have said that they have significantly increased border security efforts since Mr. Obama took office. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, a former governor of Arizona, said last month that the border was “as secure now as it has ever been,” though she conceded there was room for improvement. Critics on the right derided her remarks as out of touch.

Hi,
My pending I-140 (filed an year ago...June 2006) was transferred from TSC to NSC on 09/05/2007, because my I-485 was filed with NSC. What date willl NSC use as received date to process my case...the date they received from TSC or the original receipt date?
Isn't it(140 filed at TSC almost an year ago) supposed to be certified by now?
TSC has been much faster at certifying 140s . Looks like USCIS is transferrring the 140s from TSC ... I can only pray for alll concurrent fileres that filed at TSC ...
140s at NSC are almost taking an year according to latest processing times.
Just curious did you have an RFE?

I can't really help much, but I would say that going Canon won't actually help (unless you would be happy to use the Canon Digital Photo Professional tools, which is a simpler variant of lightroom, sort of).

My am in eb-3 category with a PD jan 2007.
I applied my i-485 to NSC and it was transferred to NBC in 2009.
NBC arranged an interview with the local immigration office in April 2009.
The Immigration Offer issued a welcome notice even though my PD was not current.
I still have not received the GREEN CARD.
In March of 2011 I received an email saying that my case has been transferred to TSC "to speed up processing"
So I dont know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.
Please respond.
FYI: I have NOT changed my Job, my employer or my address.

I could not find anything relevant to "Under Enrollment in the last semester" in the already existing threads including the one you mentioned. The other F-1/ I-485 threads talk about OPT and such issues and not about under enrollment.
That is why, I decided to start a new thread in the first place.

Has anyone tried extending NJ DL using H1b extension receipt ?
My H1b extension is in VSC and looks like it will take long long time to come back....DL is expiring in 30 days, with EAD my renewal would be for 6 months only as EAD also expires in Aug.
wonder if they will accept H1b receipt with employer letter ?
please share your NJ DL experience.
Thanks

Hi, Today my I485 had a LUD and when I check the status it is saying:
Document mailed to applicant.
On October 24, 2007 we mailed the document to the address we have on file. You should receive the new document within 30 days. If you do not, or if you move before you get it, call customer service.
I already received everything and went for FP 20 days ago. I missed the appointment and then went the next friday and they took the prints. I was told that I didn't need to reschedule the FP. I had the LUD after the FP date too.
I have seen that someone had this same status but did anyone ever receive nay other document in mail?? IF so what is it???
Thanks.

Which center did you sent out documents to?
I saw in other threads that some people who aplied for AP in Dec got approval on 30th Jan. So I believe you should be getting it soon.
I also applied for AP and waiting for approval, I believe I should get it in anytime between 1-2 months.
I asked same Question, whether I can travel outside after applying or after getting receipt and come back after approval. Many attorneys say its not good practise and insisted me staying in US untill I get AP Approval.
If there is no other go, I believe your wife can get H4 stamping and come back, unless she has EAD and want to start working after she comes back (Not sure if that will be an issues).

My mother-in-law would like to get visitor visa.
How do I answer #37 of the DS-156?
The applicant's (my mother-in-law) son( my husband) is in the U.S. illegally. I am US cit. and my husband needs to report to visa interview within the next year. We have been post-poning due to medical issues. In the meanwhile we hope my mother-in-law can come here to visit her granddaughter.( I am unable to travel). #37 of the DS-156 asks if any body is in US. We should answer YES, because her son is here, BUT, what do we put for his status? Illegal? I read one article that stated to mark YES only if he has legal status. I do not want to put NO, immigration already knows he is here and we do not want to be dishonest.
Any ideas?
She has to be truthful. Otherwise it can create big problem later. Why you husband did not apply for the card when married to a citizen?

I have a question about the Aytes memo - it says that if the name check has been pending for more than 180 days, then the 485 will be adjudicated. My question is when does the 180 day clock start? Is it on the day that the 485 application was received by the service center (going by the receipt date on the 485 notice)? Or is it the day when your PD and processing dates both become current?
Thanks,
Kunal
Neither I think( i might be wrong though ). I think the 180 days is from the day USCIS submits your case to name check.

As per the terms of the settlement (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=eaf995fda9a99110VgnVCM1000004718190aRCR D&vgnextchannel=2492db65022ee010VgnVCM1000000ecd190a RCRD), USCIS will EXPEDITE the N-400 and I-485 IF
Its been pending at USCIS for atleast 6 months
AND
You are receiving SSI benefits
Well I meet the first condition and visa numbers for my I-485 are available. But I dont meet the 2nd condition(not really sure). I for sure dont receive any benefits from SSA so I guess I cant use this settlement.
Any insights/ideas?
