1. Retrogression back on track .... a rumor???

   Hathaway replied to jmb22's topic in International

   I hope AILA pushes through with lawsuits against DOS and USCIS. And wins. If for no other reason than DOS's gross irresponsibility with regards to releasing the July Visa bulletin. They have no new evidence to support revising their announcement asid...

   Hathaway replied to RNGrad2006's topic in International

   Yeah, ur lucky man. That and considering you've already passed the 10 business day posting requirement and 30 day waiting period after that before any I140 can be started..(the part required for Schedule A labor certification)?

4. Retrogression back on track .... a rumor???

   Hathaway replied to jmb22's topic in International

   Hmmm.. At this point, it seems to me that the Dept of State and USCIS are risking mass action lawsuits.. there's an article released by AILA at Shusterman's website (AILA vs. USCIS) dealing with the last time the DOS and USCIS went outside of regulat...

7. CA or WA hospitals that do immigration sponsorships?

   Hathaway replied to Hathaway's topic in International

   That's interesting K_cole. I just talked to the Nurse Recruiter at Swedish last week. Her initials were J.T. She said they never did that, they dont do that, and probably never will.

   Thank you suzanne. Let me fix that.. Does anyone know any California or Washington state hospitals that routinely consider doing petitions for immigrant nurses? I know the visa legislation isn't in place yet (retrogression), but i'd like to have a wo...

11. is the philippine local boards required for work in US?

    The issue is about comparability. I suggest you read CGFNS's statement regarding the circumstances surrounding that decision. True, a local license is not needed for the VSC.. But the existence of Phil. licensure here is not being viewed as a prere...

12. Help Act On Immigration Reform!, Read and help resolve retrogression

    Hathaway replied to Ratio Nale's topic in International

    It's interesting how my post becomes misconstrued to mean anything against the US immigration policy or US nurses in general. If you'd take the time to read that thing over...I said "these US nurses are right." I'd never been in doubt about whether ...

14. is the philippine local boards required for work in US?

    Hathaway replied to awwzom's topic in Philippines

    Regarding post #31, we never mentioned a letter in the scenario Suzanne. And of course, were such a letter submitted to ICHP prior to licensure in the Phils, that would be pretty solid grounds for revocation based on fraud (if licensure in the Phils...

    Hathaway replied to Ratio Nale's topic in International

    Whenever i read posts like these, especially those from RN's in the Phils, I can't help feeling a twinge of sadness. Sad because these US nurses are right. Phil. RN's have NO RIGHT to be indignant. NO RIGHT to expect anything except that which the...
