Re: Citizenship status on auto/home loan application.

Even with keeping I-9s there are caveats. So unless the raid happens when the person is employed within a certain time of hire or after the end of employment, they can discard the form. Even though...

Re: Citizenship status on auto/home loan application.

I can only share my experience regarding a car loan, but when I got it, they didn't even ask for my citizenship status.
I bank with a CU currently, and even while enrolling and applying for the loan...

What he could mean, and what questions came up to me while reading, is whether it's only for visas issued from a specific date on, or applies to everyone retroactively. If it's the latter, a lot of...

Re: Ryan: Dems will have 'to stomach' Trump win on immigration

To say that most employers use e-verify is a pretty big stretch. Even in the states that mandate it there are issues.

Making it mandatory when/if an actual CIR passes, I'm all okay with, but in...

Re: How much would you pay for legal status?

Even though I'm not making 6 figures, not even close, I'd be willing to go to 50k. Hell, I'd sell the car and buy a beater, use the money I was planning on using as a down payment for a condo/house...

According to the DOL website, if you have no SSN, then you have to give them proofs of residency. Not so much with a social.

After reading the article and the ICE statement, how I interpret it is that they're calling it off for the areas affected by the hurricanes. I really do hope I'm wrong. Also, even though they say...

Re: OperationMega ICE enforcement

Probably not. When SB4 got blocked, I predicted a bigger retaliatory ICE operation, but nothing of this magnitude. I still expect them to hit TX harder than other places, though

Re: Work RE-verification not required in CA

If they (theoretically) chose to cancel all EADs come March, the employers, as per law, should re-verify if you're still allowed to work under C-33, or any other category to make sure they're only...

Re: If I may ask...What are your tentative plans if Congress fails?

This also depends on passed enforcement legislation. Grassley's e-verify bill would require employers to check even current employees, not just new hires, and to recheck everyone every 3 years, so...

There were news of companies looking into relocating such employees to their overseas locations, I guess they'd do/try to do the same.

It's totally random, all they require in that you have to be the citizen of a list of countries, and maybe a high school diploma. It's all luck after that.

I think when it comes to,say, a spousal application, you need to get the case reopened, then administratively closed.

Though I'm not freaking out, yet, I am uneasy, because I feel like it's going to be along the line of a Kobach/Sessions/Homan nomination. And none of those would mean anything good for us
