^dont forget college students too!!

I think they didnt spend $3.1 million based on rumors. This is a great sign :razz:

Re: USCIS buys $3.1 million worth of green cards
 

not to be a killjoy, but if the DA passes, i thought that everyone would get temporary residency for a 6-year period then be able to apply for a green card.

Re: USCIS buys $3.1 million worth of green cards
 

i though it was we get a green card, and then after six years we can pursue citizenship

Re: USCIS buys $3.1 million worth of green cards
 

Temporary residency = "conditional green card holder" = you still have to get some sort of card that might say "conditional alien resident".

:D

Re: USCIS buys $3.1 million worth of green cards
 

From what I found, apparenlty you get the conditional, and after 5.5 years you would get the permanent or you could immediately apply for citizenship

Re: USCIS buys $3.1 million worth of green cards
 

conditional residency card will be granted to dreamers if DA passes. I still think they need some kind of card or documents for dreamers. So I still think this is a good news

Re: USCIS buys $3.1 million worth of green cards
 

this isn't the first step, they have already invested in an improved USCIS website, where you can now enter your petition case number and find out the status immedietly, plus cleared up the background check backlog which was one of the main things slowing down the process.

Re: USCIS buys $3.1 million worth of green cards
 

USCIS is not a school, it is the United States Citizenship & Immigration Services (previously known as the INS - Immigration & Naturalization Services)
