Манюня, проверьте пожалуйста, какой закон Вы цитируете.

[Манюня]

8 U.S.C. 1255 (i)

[Манюня]

Федя, я его перечитала вдоль и поперек - где я ошиблась? http://www.uscis.gov/lpBin/lpext.dll...htm#slb-act245

[Дядя_Федор]

Вы цитируете законопроект, который так никогда и не вступил в силу.

[Манюня]

Не поленилась. Пошла в библиотeку (вон напротив офиса). Взяла [official code]. Открыла [8 USC 1255(i)]. Читаю тот же текст. Вы где то опоздали, Федя. :grum:

[Дядя_Федор]

Хорошо, попробеум еще раз.
Вот этот текст Вы взяли где?

2. The alien must have been physically present in the U.S. on
December 21, 2000, in order to qualify for adjustment (there is no
requirement that the alien have been continuously present since then).


3. The alien must have a qualifying sponsor. Sponsors may include (1)
an adult relative (spouse, sibling, parent, child) who is a U.S.
citizen, (2) a legal permanent resident of the U.S. who is a spouse of
the alien, or who is the parent of an alien who is the unmarried adult
child, or (3) an employer.


4. Applicants being sponsored by relatives must be able to show that
the qualifying family relationship existed by August 15, 2001.
Applicants being sponsored by employers must be able to show that the
employer filed a Labor Certification Application on their behalf by
August 15, 2001.

Сразу скажу, здесь
http://www.uscis.gov/lpBin/lpext.dll...htm#slb-act245
его нет.

Он есть в LIFE акте, Вы его взяли оттуда?

[Манюня]

Федя, там суммировалась комбинация нескольких законов. December 21, 2000 date came from 8 USC 1255(i), the final version of which can be found here

[Дядя_Федор]

Манюня, Ваша ссылка -- точная копия моей. Вашего текста там нет.

В общем, неважно. LIFE давал очень узкую по времени лазейку для некоторых нелегалов, и сейчас он уже не очень интересен.

Из практики известен тот факт, что непосредственным родственникам американских граждан прощают нелегальное нахождение на территории Америки.

Все, спать ушел.

Ну как же нет?

Adjustment in status of certain aliens physically present in United States
(1) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a) and (c) of this section, an alien physically present in the United States—
(A) who—
(i) entered the United States without inspection; or
(ii) is within one of the classes enumerated in subsection (c) of this section;
(B) who is the beneficiary (including a spouse or child of the principal alien, if eligible to receive a visa under section 1153 (d) of this title) of—
(i) a petition for classification under section 1154 of this title that was filed with the Attorney General on or before April 30, 2001; or
(ii) an application for a labor certification under section 1182 (a)(5)(A) of this title that was filed pursuant to the regulations of the Secretary of Labor on or before such date; and
(C) who, in the case of a beneficiary of a petition for classification, or an application for labor certification, described in subparagraph (B) that was filed after January 14, 1998, is physically present in the United States on December 21, 2000; may apply to the Attorney General for the adjustment of his or her status to that of an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence. The Attorney General may accept such application only if the alien remits with such application a sum equalling $1,000 as of the date of receipt of the application, but such sum shall not be required from a child under the age of seventeen, or an alien who is the spouse or unmarried child of an individual who obtained temporary or permanent resident status under section 1160 or 1255a of this title or section 202 of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 at any date, who—
(i) as of May 5, 1988, was the unmarried child or spouse of the individual who obtained temporary or permanent resident status under section 1160 or 1255a of this title or section 202 of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986;

Манюня, то, что Вы цитируете здесь, не то, о чем мы говорим. То, что Вы процитировали вначале -- из Лайф Акта. Похожие детали есть в еще не принятом законе, о котором так долго говорят большевики. ;) Но на практике незаконное присутствие прощают всем непосредственным членам семьи граждан, не глядя на эти условия.

Давайте подождем, что скажут другие спецы. Я умолкаю.
