N*********L 发帖数: 517 | 1 The current lapse in annual appropriated funding for the U.S. government
does not affect USCIS’ fee-funded activities. Our offices will remain open,
and all applicants should attend interviews and appointments as scheduled.
However, several USCIS programs will either expire or suspend operations, or
be otherwise affected, until they receive appropriated funds or are
reauthorized by Congress. These include:
EB-5 Immigrant Investor Regional Center Program. Regional centers are a
public or private economic unit in the United States that promote economic
growth. USCIS designates regional centers for participation in the Immigrant
Investor Program.
E-Verify. This free internet-based system allows businesses to determine the
eligibility of their employees to work in the United States.
Conrad 30 J-1 doctors. This program allows J-1 doctors to apply for a waiver
of the two-year residence requirement after completing the J-1 exchange
visitor program. The expiration only affects the date by which the J-1
doctor must have entered the United States; it is not a shutdown of the
Conrad 30 program entirely.
Non-minister religious workers. This special immigrant category allows non-
ministers in religious vocations and occupations to immigrate or adjust
status in the United States to perform religious work in a full-time,
compensated position. | t*******r 发帖数: 309 | 2 lca受影响,h1b transfer不了。有预计啥时候恢复不 | f*******1 发帖数: 522 | | b*******b 发帖数: 613 | |
