  1. more about retrogression

    I think the cut-off dates that we are hearing about are products of the interpretation of the new immigration bill. In the bill, it is said that the "pending or approved" petition will be...
  2. more about retrogression

    It appears clearly now that under the point system, foreign nurses will be disadvantaged. Registered nursing in the US does not require a bachelor degree thus, it does not qualify as "specialty...
  3. more about retrogression

    There are news recently that those I-140 petition filed after May 15, 2007 until after the effectivity of the new bill will be denied if the bill is enacted into a law. This means that it is really...
  4. more about retrogression

    I am waiting for the final joint congress bill to pass before my employer files for a petition. I am thinking if this is a good move or a blunder??? ...it's like playing chess now. We need to have a...
  5. I guess you're right! If you want a nice, slow-phased life, go elsewhere, not in the US or atleast choose a state in the US with that kind of life-style. Been to Australia as well, I really would...
  6. Just cross the bridge when we get there...but I do not think I will ever get into that situation and if ever, I will get an Arizona licence
  7. more about retrogression

    What you're saying now is the current practice but not two or three years ago, when a CGFNS exam was the only requirement used by most agencies and/or hospitals. And because of the problems they...
  8. more about retrogression

    The bad thing about the existing immigration system is that any employer can file a petition for a permanent immigrant worker eventhough that worker is not likely to qualify for a visa. One classic...
  9. more about retrogression

    There are some hope come October, the start of the fiscal year. New batch of 140,000 for workers or about 30,000 visas for EB3 petition will come. This could move the PD processing forward...
  10. http://www.clinton.senate.gov/news/statements/details.cfm?id=274944 I hope this amendment to Amendment 1150 will pass unanimously! This will in a way increase the 90,000
  11. I believe the new bill i.e. with point system is beneficial to Filipinos. The point system is biased towards College graduates, English Speakers, those with experience, and with job offer. The...
  12. Immigration News and Updates

    Although the 140,000 visas for immigrant workers will be reduced to 90,000...the draft bill, from my reading, exempts the dependents from the count and those under schedule A occupation....so all in...
  13. more about retrogression

    The senate voted to cut the guest workers visa limit to 200,000! Let's hope something for nurses will come-up....about Sec. 505, it is not mentioning "nurses", but talking about schedule A, where...
  14. Immigration News and Updates

    From my reading of the draft bill, pending or approved petitions will use the old system and will continue to be processed. These cases will have to get visa numbers from the 90,000 per year...
  15. more about retrogression

    We should not oppose the bill at this very early stage. This bill is better than nothing...atleast a starting point is needed to get us all moving. What we could hope for is that Sec. 505 for...
  16. more about retrogression

    The US will build more "fence" along the borders to secure the territory from illegal immigrants. However, there are some who can manage to enter using valid visas, find decent work, and over-stay...
  17. more about retrogression

    Let us hope and pray for all people in the world who would like to immigrate into the United States...they are waiting and waiting as well...some even broke the law by over-staying their visas or...
  18. more about retrogression

    Let's just hope for the best...if nothing happened this fiscal year, atleast they must give us something like the re-capture of unused visas...this will help us to get us moving... All we can do is...
  19. more about retrogression

    I'm afraid this might not be entirely true. Congress will recess in August. Just like last year, the Senate passed the CIR before the August break; however, the Lower house did not take it and...
  20. Give first-aid first while waiting for the cure....that's what they did in 2005...the cure even didn't come....put another
  21. Give first-aid first while waiting for the cure

    Now that I got all your attention....:trout: Can somebody tell me what's ANA's position regarding having a temporary relief and that's schedule A visa? Can somebody tell me what's ANA's position...
  22. Give first-aid first while waiting for the cure

    Good news will soon come..and as in the past , it will help us, Foreign Nurses, get immigrant visas (Green Card)...but it's just the beginning of our journey.... Everyone started with no...
  23. True and I agree. Because Filipino nurses who passed English exams are above-average. When they are talking to average native English speakers, there is a huge difference. Native average english...
  24. btw, we should be proud that our average in IELTS is 6.5...see table in the link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonnative_speakers_in_TESOL You can see that 6.5 in IELTS is equivalent to Higher (BEC...
  25. The Philippines CAN, but I doubt it will ever be. While I believe that Nursing and other medical fields need skill in English Language, I also believe that other professions also need the same...
