A former member of the Bosnian Serb Army has left the U.S. to return to Serbia after a federal judge ordered his denaturalization based on concealment during his application for U.S. citizenship that he served in the military during the Bosnian war.
What is Denaturalization ? Denaturalization is the reverse of naturalization, when a state deprives one of its citizens of his or her citizenship. From the point of view of the individual, denaturalization means "revocation" or "loss" of citizenship. Denaturalization can be based on various legal justifications. The most severe form is the "stripping of citizenship" when denaturalization takes place as a penalty for actions considered criminal by the state, often only indirectly related to nationality, for instance for having served in a foreign military. In countries that enforce single citizenship, voluntary naturalization in another country will lead to an automatic loss of the original citizenship; the language of the law often refers to such cases as "giving up one's citizenship" or (implicit) renunciation of citizenship.
In this case Jadranko Gostic, 47, a former resident of St. Petersburg, Fla., departed the United States on June 1, 2010. U.S. District Court Judge James Moody in Tampa, Fla., ordered his denaturalization on May 26, 2010.
Gostic was indicted in December 2006 on one count of unlawful procurement of citizenship and one count of making false statements. In January 2010, a civil complaint was filed against Gostic alleging illegal procurement of U.S. citizenship and requesting his denaturalization. Court documents allege that Gostic served in the Zvornik Infantry Brigade of the Bosnian Serb Army from April 1992 until December 1995. According to court documents, international tribunals have found that some units of the Zvornik Brigade engaged in war crimes and crimes against humanity, and that they participated in the July 1995 action against the Srebrenica enclave during which some 8,000 Muslim men and boys were executed.

I am sorry to hear about your mother's situation but there is no dependent visa for parents. You can probably extend her stay for another 6 months, but eventually there will be a time when by law she would have to leave. I also never recommend that one extends their visitor visa, unless ofcourse there is really an emergency situation. I say this because there is likely more chances for your mother to get a denial, and then she would end up loosing her existing multiple entry visa as well. So, dont take that chance.
Also, in her current situation, how are you ever going to manage medical bills? There is no insurance in this planet that will cover any pre-existing conditions. So, my friend believe me when i tell you this that it is better for your mother to live in india than in this country. I can understand that you are a dedicated son, everyone should be. Your $$$ go a long way in india and you can get the best care for her for the money.

check out the form at: http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-693.pdf
On page towards the bottom it prompts the doctor to enter details of the tb skin test.
Did u actually take the test? If you did, then perhaps ur doc missed it.
If i remember correctly, the doc i went to gave us two copies of the form, one that was sealed for uscis and the other for our reference. Anyway, if they dont have a copy of it, get a new one and make sure this info is filled out and any attach any additional relevant doc and send it to uscis.
If u got a lawyer, i suggest you get them to send the info with an attached letter etc.

My parents are going back to India in April'10 just before completion of their 6 months. But they want to come back again after 3 weeks. They have got their visa for 1 year. So they can stay another 4 months on their 2nd trip from May'10 to Aug'10.
Is it going to be a problem during their next visa stamping or immigration at airport as they will end up staying 10 months in US out of their 1 year approved visa ?
Please advise.

1. You can definitely change the employer and invoke AC21. No issues there..
2. You can change AOS to consular, but not after you've invoked AC21.
Actually there's probably a way to do that too , but maybe a good (and probably expensive) lawyer needs to be consulted.

Hello,
I am currently on H4 visa and I am planning to pursue an MBA program. If i choose to study in H4, i know i qualify for the California resident fee discount. If i change my visa to F1 for studies, would i not be eligible for the california resident discount? or would i lose the residency status?
Thanks.
Hi, My wife was in similar situation and I can provide following advice:
If the school is public, then you need to stand benefit of resident tuition fees. However, keep an eye on the bigger picture, that is your career after the school. These days its difficuilt to get H1, although good MBAs should not have this problem. Some CA schools allow OPT and consider time on your H4 for OPT if you were a FULL TIME STUDENT on H4. But you can change status to F1 just before filing OPT (6 months or so) I.e. Be in H4 Status for 3 semesters and be full time student and change to F1 in 4th semester and right away file for OPT or CPT. You will need to work out the technical details of this. Hence you can take advantage of the best of the both worlds.
If it is a private school, resident or non resident fees dont matter. H4 is of no benefit in this case, file for F1 right away.

clarify21: You can not have two status (ead & h1b) at the same time. Either your are on H1B or EAD (Pending AOS). If you would like to maintain the H1B status, for the part time job, you will have to ask your part time employer to do the new H1B; by having two H1Bs you can work for two employers the same time. By doing this, H1B and EAD both are valid. The moment you use EAD, your H1B status is invalid. Have a talk with your attorney. Hope this helps.

Please help me out here.
I filed I-140 in EB2 category on September 30, 2005 at Vermont service center. I also filed I-1485 concurrently with I-140 and fingerprinted in December 2005. My I-140 was approved in June 2006. But I-1485 is still pending due to retrogression/non-availability of visa numbers to Indian nationals in EB2 category.
To avoid the retrogression in EB2 category I filed another I-140 in EB1 (since visa number is available in this category for Indian nationals) on May 1, 2006 at Texas service center (due to bi-specialization). This I-140 was approved in August 2006.
I have following questions regarding my case:
1) Can I use the I-485, which was concurrently filed with EB2 I-140 and link it with EB1 I-140.
a. If yes, where do I file my request since I-485 is pending in Vermont and EB1 I-140 is approved by Texas?
b. If no, is there any other alternative to use the EB1 I-140 priority dates?
Thanks!
Mat

I think if one is in hell, USCIS can hand deliver..
Heaven is another Story (storey?).. :-)
But as a recent believer in buddhist ideals, I think I will just be a cow in my next life..
That brings up a good point.. as a cow, it would be a bad life for me in USA.. India would be much better bet.. I would be worshipped and rarely eaten.. hmm.. Thinking ahead of the curve, I think I will apply for a "cow green card" for India.. Cows will be clamouring to get to India.. I will be mooing away soon..

Hi
Can someone let me know if we can go a PCP and take medication for INH for 9 months for a positive skin test and negative x-ray.
Or it is a rule that we need to go only to local county health dept.
-Rao.
PCP should be ok. Make sure you get a letter from your PCP after the completion of treatment.

It's only IV members. We did decide on few things last time, We have some new ideas, to talk. Obviously we need more people to carry on with the efforts...There are several private bills that are being placed in the queue as well as I see a separate bill for foreign nurses is coming up for discussion, we I feel we should talk to our lawmakers to bail us out of the EB-3/EB-2 India/china messWho other than IV is expected or invited in this call? Do we have any agenda, or just a brain storming?

You must have filed 2 G28s ( 1for you and 1 for spouse) with the 485. With that logic, when you change attorney, separate G28s are needed to be filed for you and spouse.

Hello,
The dept. of labor uses two types of codes, one of which is the SOC code. Yours may be a SOC code (Standard Occupational Classification) or the other one (name I can't remember). If you look at Murthy.com and search for articles on AC21, you'll find information on the two types of codes the DOL uses. The go to the DOL website and do a search for the two types of occupational codes and see which classification system your code matches. Once you access the classification, just look for your number and it should give you a brief description. I did this for my code.

It is perfectly legal to let two employers file for her H-1B visa. She can even work for both of them!
Hi,
A friend of mine who's in India right now has been offered a job by two different employers here in the US. Both of those employers want to file for her H1B.
From her perspective it makes sense to let both the employers apply for her H1 coz that increases her chances of getting at least one approved. However, reading a bunch of FAQs online it seems that it'd be illegal for her to let both the employers apply for her H1B.
Is that correct? Does anyone have any insights?
Thanks.

Are people getting soft lud on 485 recently?.
The reason why i am asking this is my 485 did not have any LUD for past 1 year and i got one today for all my 485(mine,dependents). 140 did not have any LUD only 485s. No AP,EAD renewals..
I know from previous threads it means nothing. Just wanted to check. Was trying to not post about this but at last i posted.
My wife got RFE after this LUD, Mine and my kid's no change. Waiting for RFE details. I think since the processing time for Texas is Aug 2007 they are pre adjusting the apps, i guess.

That e-verify thing sounds reasonable, but it is dangerous. The way things work, and as we are seeing now, things like that get expanded and they grow ever more intrusive. Pretty soon people will need government permission even to breathe. In fact, the EPA now claims the right to regulate carbon dioxide, that thing we breathe out...

Nothing written in stone but from anecdotal evidence.. NO
They process 485s according to RD.
Approval only comes after PD is current though
