[Summary] => Mayor Tomas Osmeña’s wife, Margarita “Margot” Osmeña, yesterday claimed that a United States Embassy official has clarified to her that there is no need to issue a certification that she had abandoned her US Embassy-issued resident alien card or “green card” to prove that she is no longer a resident of the foreign country.

[Title] => US to continue hiring nurses, teachers DOLE
[Summary] => Filipino nurses, teachers and other workers can still work in the United States despite the freeze in the processing of new visa applications, the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) said yesterday.
Acting Labor Secretary Manuel Imson belied reports that the US government would stop hiring Filipino workers or issuing H-1B visas to foreign workers.
"The US Citizenship and Immigration Service (CIS) will not stop the issuance of H-1B visas but will merely not accept petitions for new visas from October 2004 to October 2005," he said.

[Title] => Not everyone can get a green card thru marriage to a citizen Part 1
[Summary] => Dear Atty. Gurfinkel
A few years ago, I entered the U.S. as a crewman. I am now in love with a U.S. citizen, and we plan to get married. Once we are married, will my spouse be able to petition me, and can I adjust status (obtain a green card) in the U.S., without any problem?
Very truly yours,
TG

[Title] => Uscis streamlining its procedures to ease backlog
[Summary] => The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) announced new plans and strategies to eliminate its huge backlog of cases, while enhancing national security.
According to the USCIS Office of Public Affairs, the new approach aims not only to eliminate the backlog, but also to ensure a six-month or less processing time for every immigration case by the end of 2006.
The USCIS backlog at the end of fiscal year 2003 was 3.7 million cases. (Each year, the USCIS receives about 6 million applications.)
