1. DACA Not Dead, But Remains on Life Support

Last September, the Administration announced that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program established by President Obama in 2012 which grants work permits and shields certain young persons from deportation would be ended on March 5, 2018.

President Trump said that he was sympathetic to these young people and that 6 months was plenty of time for Congress to enact DACA into law.

Yet, a few weeks before the program was set to expire, the President imposed a number of conditions on Congress to be enacted in exchange for him to support DACA.

These included appropriating $25 billion to build a border wall with Mexico, a dramatic increase in funding for immigration enforcement and cutting family-based immigration to the US by over 50%.

Because it rejected these demands, Congress failed to pass a bill protecting DACA recipients, even though there was wide bipartisan support for doing so.

Fortunately, DACA did not end on March 5.

US District Judges in California and New York issued nationwide preliminary injunctions requiring the Administration to continue to process DACA renewals.

The Administration attempted to bypass the US Court of the Appeals for the 9th Circuit and have the Supreme Court strike down the injunction.

However, on February 26, the Supreme Court declined to do so.

The 9th Circuit fast-tracked the matter, and a decision is expected possibly by June. From there, the Supreme Court is expected to rule on the matter sometime after the November elections.

Meanwhile, Congress will have another chance to revisit DACA since it must pass a spending bill before March 23.

However, unless the Administration drops its insistence that passage of a DACA bill remain dependent upon the acceptance of its other demands, there is little hope that DACA will be enacted into law.

2. State Department’s Visa Bulletin for March 2018 Predictions for FY2018

    • Visa Bulletins from 2002 to the Present

EMPLOYMENT CATEGORIES

In the March 2018 Visa Bulletin, the worldwide EB categories all remain current.

China EB-2 and EB-3 for professionals move ahead by 9 and 4 weeks, respectively. China EB-5 remains frozen at July 22, 2014.

India EB-2 advances 1 week while India EB-3 moves ahead by 4 weeks.

Philippines EB-3 advances by 8 weeks.

Below are the State Department’s Charlie Oppenheim’s most recent predictions for the movement of employment-based priority dates for the rest of the fiscal year:

EB-1 China and EB-1 India. These categories will remain current for the coming months, but the imposition of a final action date in the summer remains possible.

EB-2 Worldwide. The final action dates for this category will remain current for the foreseeable future. Charlie notes a decrease in EB-2 Worldwide demand, which could be exacerbated by the transition of employment-based I-485 processing to the local USCIS field offices.

EB-2 China and EB-3 China. In January, EB-2 China and EB-3 China advance by more than one month to August 8, 2013, and April 15, 2014, respectively.

EB-2 India. Consistent with Charlie’s predictions, in January, EB-2 India will again advance by less than one month from November 1, 2008, to November 22, 2008. It is not likely that the final action date for this category will move into 2009 before summer.

EB-3 India. The final action date for EB-3 India will advance two weeks from October 15, 2006, to November 1, 2006, in January. As we move into the second quarter of Fiscal Year (FY) 2018, demand in this category is levelling out following heavy visa number usage in October. This allows for modest forward advancement which Charlie hopes will continue at the pace of up to a few weeks each month.

EB-3 Philippines. In January, EB-3 Philippines advances one month to February 15, 2016. The final action date in this category held last month due to a surge in demand, which has since disappeared, allowing for this forward movement. Additional forward movement is possible, but Charlie does not want to advance the category too fast in case the decline in demand is only temporary.

The following chart tells the story of the EB numbers in detail for March 2017:

Below are the State Department’s Charlie Oppenheim’s most recent predictions for the movement of family-based priority dates for the rest of the fiscal year:

The recent retrogressions in FB-1 Philippines and FB-2B Philippines may continue to hold for a while. FB-1 Philippines has already used more than forty percent of its annual numbers, whereas it normally uses fifty-four percent of its visa numbers by March. This means that FB-1 Philippines only has approximately eleven percent of its numbers to use between January and March.

FB-4 India is advancing, and the FB-2A category for all countries is also moving faster than expected.

FAMILY-BASED CATEGORIES

Each of the worldwide family preference categories move forward in January between 4 and 6 weeks.
The family-based categories in the visa bulletin are as follows:

F-1 Unmarried Adult Sons & Daughters of US Citizens

F-2A Spouses & Children of LPRs

F-2B Unmarried Adult Sons & Daughters of LPRs

F-3 Married Sons & Daughters of US citizens

F-4 Brothers & Sisters of US Citizens

An applicant’s priority date is the day that the government received the I-130 Petition. For more on family-based visas and how you can shorten your application time, see Attorney Shusterman’s video near the top of this page.

VISA BULLETIN – FAMILY

All of the worldwide family-based categories advance in January between 1 and 6 weeks.

The Mexican family-based categories move forward by 1 to 5 weeks except for married sons and daughters of US citizens which remains frozen at June 22, 1995.

The family-based categories for the Philippines advance between 1 and 10 weeks.

The following charts tell the story in detail:

Warning: Immigration waiting times may appear faster on the official lists than they are in reality.

4. Asylum: USCIS Implements New Scheduling System

Giselle Sotelo, Esq.

Recent changes to the affirmative asylum process will mean new applicants could be interviewed and get their decisions in just a matter of weeks, and those whose applications have already been pending for years could have to wait a lot longer.

On January 29, 2018, USCIS announced the so-called “last in, first out” scheduling procedures for affirmative asylum cases which prioritizes for adjudication, in descending order:

(1) applications that were scheduled for an interview, but the interview had to be rescheduled at the request of the applicant or the needs of USCIS;
(2) applications that have been pending 21 days or less; and
(3) all other pending applications will be scheduled for interviews starting with newest ones first.

The list of priorities no longer includes affirmative asylum applications filed by juveniles.

Under the changes, USCIS expects to be able to schedule applicants of newly-filed applications for interviews within a mere 3 to 6 weeks from the date of filing. Previously, applications had been pending for 2 to 4 years before an applicant was scheduled for an interview.

Asylum applicants will be allowed one adjournment of their interview without having to show cause, lasting between 1 to 3 weeks. Subsequent requests for adjournment will be decided on a case by case basis.

If you are present in the U.S. illegally (either because you overstayed your visa or entered the U.S. illegally), and the asylum officer  does not approve your asylum application, you will be referred to the immigration court to renew your request for asylum and seek any other form of relief from deportation for which you may be eligible.

If you are lawfully present in the U.S., that is, you are in a lawful nonimmigrant status, and the asylum officer does not approve your application, then you will receive a Notice of Intent to Deny giving you 16 days to respond. If USCIS still does not approve your application, then it will be denied and you will remain in the nonimmigrant status that you are in. Unlike a referral to the immigration court, which allows you to renew your application before the judge, you do not have the ability to appeal a denial.

Once an asylum application is referred to the immigration court, the application could remain pending for years in the court due to the current case backlog.

An asylum applicant is entitled to apply for a work permit after their application has been pending for 150 days without a decision. An asylum applicant’s work permit cannot be approved until after the application has been pending for 180 days.

If, under the new expedited scheduling procedures, a newly-filed asylum application is referred to the immigration court within the 150-day period, applicants will be able to apply for a work permit after 150 days and get a work permit if their application is still pending for the requisite 180 days of filing. (Note that if an applicant requests a continuance or any delay in adjudication of their application, it could take much longer to get a work permit).

If an application is denied within the 150- or 180-day period, then an applicant will not be able to get a work permit. Indeed, the reason for the changes appears to be to prevent people from getting work permits. USCIS states that the reason for these changes is to “reduce the incentive to file for asylum solely to obtain employment authorization.”

Asylum applicants already in the backlog who have been waiting for months or even years for USCIS to adjudicate their claims, could be forced to wait much longer as a result of the changes. The filing of a mandamus action, that is, a lawsuit, has been used by our office with success to compel USCIS to act on scheduling interviews and issuing decisions in these types of long-pending cases.

5. Success Story: Saving a Client’s Long-Pending Adjustment of Status Application

Cheryl Gertler, Esq.

A married couple came to my office and handed me their interview notice for their adjustment of status cases.  It seemed odd because the priority date for the employment-based immigration case was not current.  The immigrant petition and adjustment cases had been filed in 2007, and the principal alien was Indian, so the case was backlogged for years.

Why would they be called in for an interview when the priority date wasn’t current?  We discussed the situation, and it seemed that the USCIS might have questions about whether the couple were living together and in a good faith marriage.  The clients had 2 homes and addresses, and it seemed that the husband had filed an application for work authorization using a different address from his wife’s earlier application.

The couple had married in 2002 and had a daughter together.  At one point in their marriage, they had some problems, and the husband moved to a different home.  However, the couple was now living together, and their 2nd home was rented to a tenant.

I prepared the clients for this and other possible lines of questioning in the interview.  The clients collected documents to confirm their marriage and the use of their 2nd home as a rental, including copies of the rent checks and the agreement.

I accompanied them to their interview.  They explained they were living together, had 2 homes and were renting the 2nd home.  They also explained, at the time the husband had filed the work authorization application, he had been temporarily living in the 2nd home.  They also testified that they had a child together and were prepared to provide a copy of her birth certificate.  Although the officer smiled, he did not ask many questions and refused to take copies of the evidence/documents which the clients had brought.

Several weeks later, we received a notice from the USCIS denying the wife’s adjustment of status application, based on a lack of  good faith marriage.  The clients were naturally upset.  They had been living together as a married couple since 2002, had a child together, and had been waiting almost 8 years for a green card.  They felt hopeless and confused. Should the wife immediately leave the US?  What about their daughter?  Should the husband abandon his application?

I immediately prepared a Motion for Reconsideration.  The motion cited case law including cases that confirmed the issue was whether it was a valid marriage at the time of filing, evidence of their joint life together, including the US birth certificate of their daughter, client and witness declarations, evidence that the 2nd home was a rental home, and a declaration from me.

While we waited, the clients began discussing their options if the case wa not approved.  Two weeks later, I received a telephone call on my mobile phone.  It was from an immigration supervisor advising me that he had reviewed the case, that the denial would be immediately overturned, and the wife would be placed back into a pending adjustment status.  The clients cried when we told them the good news.  That was good news indeed!   (More Success Stories)

7. Ask Mr. Shusterman: New CSPA Decision Could Help Keep Families Together

On February 14, 2018, the US Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, in Margarito Rodriguez Tovar v. Jefferson Sessions reinterpreted a section of the Child Status Protection Act (CSPA) in a way which could help keep many immigrant families intact.

The Court overturned a decision by the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) that the son of a US citizen father who had waited in line for a green card for many years be forced to leave the US for a decade or more simply because his father had become a naturalized US citizen.

Margarito Rodriguez Tovar was born in Mexico in 1983. In 2000, at the age of 17, he entered the US. On April 30, 2001, his father, who was a lawful permanent resident, sponsored him for a green card.  In 2005, the USCIS approved the family-based 2A visa petition.

In 2006, his father became a naturalized US citizen. The child’s 2A priority date (minor, unmarried sons/daughters of lawful permanent residents) became current and, in 2008, he filed for adjustment of status under section 245i.

The USCIS denied his application on the ground that he had aged-out and that since the family-based 1st preference (adult unmarried sons/daughters of US citizens) priority dates were backlogged to 1992, his priority date would not become current for more than a decade.

He was placed under removal proceedings where he renewed his application for adjustment of status. However, both the Immigration Judge and the BIA denied his application and ordered him to leave the US.

Both the Judge and the Board cited the BIA’s published opinion in Matter of Zamora-Molina, 25 I. & N. Dec. 606 (BIA 2011). Zamora-Molina involved a similar fact pattern. The respondent’s LPR mother had originally sponsored her child under the family 2A category, and became naturalized after the child’s 21st birthday. The respondent argued that had the mother not naturalized, he could have utilized CSPA’s “opt-out” provision and used the CSPA age formula to adjust his status under the 2A category. The BIA disagreed and held that since the mother had naturalized, the issue was whether the CSPA age formula applies to “immediate relatives” of US citizens. The section of law in question states that only if the parent naturalizes prior to the child’s turning 21 can the child be considered an immediate relative of a US citizen. The BIA ruled that this referred to the child’s biological age.

In Rodriguez Tovar, the 3-judge panel disagreed with the holding in Zamora-Molina and unanimously held that it would make no sense for Congress to punish a child simply because his sponsoring parent became a US citizen. They determined that the section of CSPA that refers to immediate relatives should be read to refer to a person’s statutory (CSPA) age rather than to his/her biological age.

Applying the CSPA formula, Rodriguez Tovar’s age would be under 21 (24 years when his priority date became current on June 1, 2007 minus the 4 years that the I-130 was pending before the USCIS), and he would be eligible to adjust his status to permanent resident as an immediate relative of a US citizen parent.

The opinion in Rodriguez Tovar succinctly states the rationale for the decision as follows:

” In sum, the government’s position is that because
Rodriguez Tovar’s father became a citizen, Rodriguez Tovar
must now wait decades longer for a visa than if his father had
remained an LPR. In the meantime the government seeks to
deport him to Mexico, with any future return subject to
unforeseeable modifications to the current immigration laws.
As we explain in the remainder of this opinion, the correct
interpretation of the statute does not lead to this absurd result,
but rather to his entitlement to an immediately available visa.”
It remains to be seen whether the government will ask the Supreme Court to review this decision.

  3. It’s customary for women in South Africa to wear their hearts on their sleeves on February 14. Women pin the names of their love interests on their shirtsleeves, an ancient Roman tradition known as Lupercalia. This is how some South African men learn of their secret admirers. The country is South Africa.

I am an immigrant from The Bahamas living in the United States. I am currently a homemaker. I enjoy helping people, cooking and reading. I solved the quiz by researching the internet.
