s**********n 发帖数: 2343 | 3 SCA5 的字面里面没有Quota, Hernandez和他的支持者反复强调不是quota. 但是事实上
他就是一个race quota. 不但是race quota for whole CA public university, 而且
是race quota for each individual school, especially UCB and UCLA. 这是
Hernandez的主要论据,就是要用种族优先的办法把USB和UCLA的学生人数弄到与人口比
例一致。 这不是race quota 什么是race quota!
Hernandez 还说SCA5对亚裔入学没有影响呢。不但没有影响,而且有助于亚裔入学。 |

签证办公室(Visa Office)通过对cut-off dates的控制,在财政年度(每年十月为财年第一个月)的前三个季度对职业移民类缓慢释放签证名额(比如在2011财年,职业移民类前三季度仅仅发出了年度总额58.6%的签证数),在最后一个季度才大幅度移动cut-off days放出大量没用完的名额。导致绿卡申请人的等待时间被延长。并且由于移民局资源有限,如果在最后一个季度没有及时处理足够的申请,绿卡签证名额就会被浪费(移民法规定,一个财年没有用完的名额不能挪到下一年使用)。近年职业移民绿卡申请严重积压,如果绿卡名额再被浪费,积压的情况就会被加剧。
按季度分配27%的职业移民绿卡名额的好处:
1. 能缩短绿卡申请人的等待时间(比如很多申请人就能在2011年拿到绿卡而不必等到2012年夏天);
2. 尽量避免绿卡签证名额的浪费
法律依据:
NIU聘请了专业律师对移民法进行分析研究,认为签证办公室目前的季度分配现状不符合移民法第201条27%限额规定的立法精神,我们需要做的就是敦促移民局提高效率依法办事。

这个quota, 就是压制亚裔而让白人得利的东西 - 因为亚裔中强的学生明显超过亚裔人

老黑当然也受益, 但他们人少受益也有限,受益最大的是占社会主体的白人. 对此我不

1。quota不是法案,不像AA这么明目张胆。quota当然要反,但是2个问题,不能因为
quota影响更大就支持AA,没这个道理。

2。这个quota的思想理念, 其实也是AA这个潘多拉盒子里面放出来的
AA说要照顾弱势群体的理念,已经被被左棍得寸进尺的演化成了要打一定要压强势群体,

耻感。说的多是情绪的发泄。这样一个人就
可以把一个版面弄的一团糟,应该要有办法
加以限制。
当然封权是一种办法,但对于以上行为,只
能说是“灌水”,封权过于严厉。限制发文
数量,对这种行为是一种有效的办法。
限制每一个人的发文数量,初看起来不合情
理:对一个没有犯规的人为什么要处罚呢?
但是,这种限制不应该看做处罚。BBS的版面
是一种资源,不应该让一两个人占用太多。
就象在美国参议院发言,也有时间的限制。
限制要宽松,比如说,每个人在每一版每天
发文的QUOTA是10篇,每星期40篇。在全站
的QUOTA是30篇,每星期120篇。
限制发文数量也可以减清版主负担,灌水少
了,“抗洪”的任务就清了。另外也多了一
种管理形式,在某些情况下(比如说灌水)可
以用减少QUOTA来取代封权,比如说灌水一
次,减QUOTA一篇,4星期后自动恢复。
实现起来,在发文时除了检查是否封权外,
要记录ID的QUOTA数和在每一版的发文数,
检查发文数是否已达到QUOTA数,并增加
计数。应该是可以实现的。 |

Please note that the USCIS has used its quota for employment-based cases for
this fiscal year and new visas are not available until October 2011. What
this means is the immigration service will resume looking at employment-
based cases (I-485) starting October 1, 2011 for green cards.
那就是说10月1号之前都不会有新的485批准了???

There are two problems:
1. Too many candidates from one particular country. When diversity is not
kept people don’t integrate, communicate between their culture only, bring
all their relatives, hire only from their country, nothing good. No any
country should get more than 10% of H1B or GC.
2. The way India abuses H1B flooding and even selling applications (what is
against the US law).

我来自中国,目前正在申请绿卡。我的分类是EB2C. 我想向你反映目前职业移民政策执
行过程中对EB2C极不公平的一些情况。这对我个人以及整个EB2C群体的利益都伤害很大。
接下来是简单的科普—EB2除了中印都是current, 中印的quota各多少,spillover
quota,quota分配是由O每月VB定的cut-off date决定的。
最新的7月VB预测这个财政年底中印的cut-off dates会到Mar/Apr 06. 如果属实的话,
将意味今年spill over quota将有xx%归于EB2I.结合前几年的spill over quota的分配
情况我们可以看到:
07FY – xxxx spill-over,印度占xxxx;
08FY – xxxx spill-over,印度占xxxx;
09FY – xxxx spill-over,印度占xxxx;
10FY – xxxx spill-over,印度占xxxx; (estimated)
这样的事实说明O在定cut-off dat |

Crovitz: The Economics of Immigration
Adding more skilled workers would bring in an estimated $100 billion in
federal revenues over a decade, largely from increased income taxes.
By L. GORDON CROVITZ

For the first time in a generation, the debate over immigration has turned
to the opportunities, not the burdens. Washington might finally deliver
immigration reform, especially as politicians realize that adding more

http://blog.mygcvisa.com/2013/04/eb3-visa-bulletin-predictions.
The update below is for EB3 ROW, Mexico and China.
1. Visa is typically allocated quarterly. Since we are more than 6 months
into fiscal year 2014, in theory, USCIS has already assigned 50% of total
quota of EB3 ROW. The quota for the EB3 category is around 40,000 visas.
Subtract around 2,800 for each country (India, China, etc). This leaves EB3
ROW, Mexico and China quota around 34,400.
If they have already allocated 50... 阅读全帖 |

j***h 发帖数: 1 | 42 If SCA5 would bring back a strict race-based quota, I don't think the
decision by the 5th Circuit will matter at all, since a quota is clearly
discriminatory and absolutely unconstitutional. In Fisher v. UTexas, almost
all the Justices agreed that quota set by the state government in the name
of diversity is unconstitutional. One can feel the anger by Thomas in his
concurring and even Ginsburg did not dare to challenge this view directly.
In addition, the Fisher case is a harder case since UT is... 阅读全帖 |

里面讲到“
The court held that a race-conscious admissions process that may favor "
underrepresented minority groups," but that also took into account many
other factors evaluated on an individual basis for every applicant, did not
amount to a quota system that would have been unconstitutional under Regents
of the University of California v. Bakke.

言外之意时说“a quota system" 已经明确指出来是违宪 (UC vs Bakke case)

从这段话可以认清的他的真面目。他举例子说,Stanford, yale 这些私立大学可以用
种族为因素招收underrepresented 少数族裔学生,但是加州公立学校因为prop209的原
因不可以。
恰恰长青藤私校,斯坦福就是有事实上的种族quota专门针对亚裔,不是下限quota给少
数族裔, 而是上限quota给亚裔。这就是Hernandez要推翻prop209的原因,给亚裔加上
quota上限。 |

。这个招生名额是排在分数之前考虑的。如果在一个省份招不满,招生人员只能降低分
数线,无权把这个省份的招生名额调剂到其它省份。
至于为什么有这个 quota 的问题,确实是不好回答,我也不是很清楚,应该是历史遗
留下来的,我可以试着分析一下可能的原因:
高考开始于五十年早期,当时许多打天下的共产党高级干部子女就正在陆续进入接受高
等教育的年龄,给大城市相应高的 quota 有助于这些红二代顺利受到比较好的高等教
育。
统一高考试卷不是件很难的事情,但是如果没有地区划分,分数作为唯一标准的话,那
么相应阅卷等也必须做到有相当的公平性,全国试卷都要被运来运去在不知什么地方批
改,这个操作起来有一定的困难。
各个地区教育水平参差不齐,quota 的设立有时可以一定程度上保护一些教育水平低的
省份。用分数一刀切,对有的省份(比如西藏)来说,考生普遍分数低,可能就没有什
么上大学的机会了,这个地区的教育水平就会越发落后,扩大地区性的教育贫富差距。
而对于国家来说自然教育水平整体提高才是目的。

日本进口关税分通用关税和临时关税和two协约国关税三种,如果按季节没有临时调整
或者不属于two协约国,就执行统用关税税率。但日本,每一年度内经常频繁的调整相
关商品关税。
就奶粉而已,日本列在HS code 0401.10.110 目录下的通用关税是25%+每公斤63日元固

关税收取后又退给进口商。这样一来,如果你是two的协约国,在2013年1月进口牛奶关
