INS effects after US attacks

108 years back on September - 11 - 1893

Few words of Swami Vivekananda (An Indian Saint) in Chicago at "Conference of World Religions" on Sep-11-1893

"Brothers and Sisters of America" - he started, "people born in different religions finally reach the same God, as river born in different places finally reaches the sea". He emphatically declared that no religion is superior and none is inferior. To find more information about Swami Vivekananda and his speech, please Click Here

Yes, we are brothers and Sisters. Let us not forget that America is a nation of immigrants. President Bush and the U.S. Senate, among others, reminding the public that it is wrong to stereotype and target Arab-Americans and Muslims in the U.S., and that no ethnic group is more "American" than any other.

INS effects after US attacks

The INS has tightened up both security and scrutiny at its borders and ports of entry. All the VISA applications at US consulates will be thouroughly verified with INS records for previous entries and exit details (if any). Also they will verify all the related documents which may delay the stamping process. More questions may raise for visitor visas.

H1B applicants are requested to keep all the papers while stamping as well as at the port of entry. It is immaterial whether you are entering first time or NOT. Be prepared to answer any questions related to your employment or employer. Definitely there should NOT be any problem if you keep all the documents properly. Please visit our VISA info page for all the neccessary documents for various VISAs.

If you are an H1B holder planning to go abroad for a vacation, it is advisable to keep your latest paystub, H1B approval notice and letter from your employer stating that you are the employee of that company, going abroad for vacation for the specified dates. Please contact your attorney and make sure that you will NOT be having any problems with re-entry based on your current status.

There may be some slowdown in INS processing. This is due to the INS audit of its adjudications operations, which runs through October. During this audit, processing times for all visa types may increase. Because of the recent attack, the INS may also do more verification to student and training visas, to make sure all the information of the sponsoring company and the candidate are correct.
