REALLY Great Immigration News! You guys are gonna love this! - Page 2

This will only benefit people who is not protected under 245i, it doesn't change the current waiting period for a visa that in some cases can take up to 20 years (mexicans, filipinos & indians)

This change I think would mainly affect those at Immigrate2us.net considering the I-601 process can be done on US soil as this rule proposes.I'm assuming the adjustment interview would also be done on US soil for EWIs who meet the requirements.
Of course not,that is all due to the quota system which although maybe a detriment to some it does make sense to have an equal immigration inflow.

The numbers on the quota can only be changed by congress, the administration can't magically make numbers allowed to adjust increase. They can make it easier to adjust, which is what they did. I thought that was pretty obvious.

dont get ur hopes up,sorry!! extreme hardship is the key phrase!! until i see results ill be jumping for joy ....ya digg

So this is only good news for those who have a USC relative?
Whoopie!

So you either have to be married to a USC citizen or qualify under "extreme hardship" to get 10 year ban waived? that's bullsh*t.

"U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) intends to change its current process for filing and adjudication of certain applications for waivers of inadmissibility filed in connection with an immediate relative immigrant visa application. Specifically, USCIS is considering regulatory changes that will allow certain immediate relatives of U.S. citizens to request provisional waivers under section 212(a)(9)(B)(v) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, as amended (INA or Act), 8 U.S.C. 1182(a)(9)(B)(v), prior to departing the United States for consular processing of their immigrant visa applications."

Any law changes need congress approval, so I don't think the president will be able to make a back door extention of the section 245i. After all that is what he trying to do.
All this is just political game to gain some points with the immigration community.

something concrete would be nice...this way he is just creating animosity. Would be nice if he introduced something for CIR and the answer would be Yes or No.. feel like he is toying with us.

Right so this new rule does not help the child over 21 and the parent is a USC?
