Canadian-born Justin Bieber is today's selection in honor of my teenage daughter who went with her girlfriends to hear the 16 year old singer here in Memphis over the weekend. Bieber has the distinction of being the first artist to have seven songs from a debut album listed on the Billboard Hot 100 at the same time and his second album debuted at #1 on the charts. Bieber's discovery was also very 21st century. He was picked up for a recording contract after being discovered on YouTube.

Antis point to polls showing more Americans support the Arizona bill than oppose it. But other polls - including new ones from ImmigrationWorks USA and Immigration Voice, show these same voters also support - by wide margins - comprehensive immigration reform proposals that contain legalization programs. Is this really a contradictory result? Maybe not. Americans want ACTION on immigration reform rather than maintaining the status quo. Action can mean an SB1070 or something on a broader scale - even if it is called "amnesty." Here are slides outlining the ImmigrationWorks poll. Keep an eye on polling of Republican voters who...

Hello
My friend is in USA on F1 visa and her wife and daughter denined visa twice with reason that my friend is studying here not working.
Even he is not offering sponsership to her wife and kids. His in laws are sponsering both of them. Now he wants to invite them on his graduation day. Can he get a letter from local senator with F1 visa status ? or is that only for people who pays taxes . ( H1b or l1b ) ?
Please advise.
thanks

My responses are below:
My question:
1) Shall I disclose the arrest to the attorney ? I am concern that it may backfire as I said "NO" for arrest in the background check forms etc.
You Should say "YES" and produce all the court records.
2) Can I travel & enter US without any issues ? Do I need to carry the expungement letter with me all times entering US?
I would advise not to travel unless you get an attorney to review all your documents and get a confirmation that you are not subjected to any bar under Sec 212 of the INA.
3) Does my arrest go to FBI ? Will I be asked for interview when my PD becomes current ?
You could called in for an interview. But there shouldn't be any problem once you have all the records.
4) What should I beware ?

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$GOOD AFTERNOON GC$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Deadline = April 30th, 2011
Goal = 5000 votes on survey (see I-485 filing w/o current PD thread) and momentum to continue with this campaign.The survey is a platform to gather and push for launching action items. Based on response by 04/30/2011 - IV will decide whether to even proceed with initiative or not.
Actions - 1) Vote on survey.
2)Email ivcoordinator@gmail.com with PD, ph#,email & subject "I485 filing impacted�,
3)Print/Circulate Fliers and spread FB, wiki link (see "support thread")
This is a supporting thread to the "Want to File I-485 without Current Priority Date? Gather here" thread started by pappu.
As suggested by pappu/starsun, this supporting thread provides impacted members with additional information and tools to help the initiative.
Visit Immigration Voice Wiki (http://immigrationvoice.org/wiki/index.php/Employment_Based_Green_Card#Process_.28EB1.2C_EB2. 2C_and_EB3.29) - for overview of Employment Based - Green Card process
Visit I485 Filing w/o current PD Wiki (http://immigrationvoice.org/wiki/index.php/Current_Grass-Roots_Initiative_-_I-485_Filing_without_Current_Priority_Date) - for overview of this initiative
As pappu stated in the first post of the above referenced thread - some of the ongoing efforts include finding how many IV members would get benefit from such a provision and get basic details such as username/Priority Date of impacted members. Future action items might include drafting documents and letters to support this provision. There maybe actions such as sending emails etc. However we would not be able to open a public action item unless we can have thousands of our members willing to participate in a grassroots action item. This survey intends to understand the needs of our membership for this provision and collect grassroots information.
The fact is we have a dedicated group of volunteers (and we need more) who have been trying their best to spread the message about this initiative so that a strong grass-roots support can be created leading up to launch of the public action items. So far we have around 1100 people who have responded. Based on quick calculations carried out using PERM data, it is estimated that there are at least 60K-70K EB applicants waiting to file I-485/EAD/AP (this is a very conservative estimate..the actual number could be much more). Grass-roots initiatives require time and patience and we request maximum number of impacted folks to participate actively.

Depicting "despair" using a photo and nothing else is tough. A final in one of my photoshop classes was to make a TIME magazine cover that depicted either "despair" or "hope". It was a lot harder to do that we all originally thought.
This comes close but it could also be construed as sadness, anger, weariness, pain, etc.
As I said, that's a very tough emotion to depict in a photo without any supporting text.
By the way, I like the photo.
