Rete

Being that Peter Newton recently told of us his experience at the JFK
POE, I thought he and others might like to read these two articles of
what happened to a Spanish immigrant who took those dates as valid and
traveled on A/P which had actually expired months before.

Interesting Rete! My husband realized that Newark had stamped his K3 as
being valid until June 6, 2003 instead of June 6, 2005 when he came in
to activate. He got it corrected manually. Hopefully it won't cause any
problems on down the road. The only saving grace is that the K3 didn't
exist until August 18, 2001.

This is down the road for me....but; are there two dates stamped
om the AP?

Why the INS Nazi? She was foolish enough to not know the law and
apparently not read her A/P



The date placed on the I-94 is not the date the A/P expires. The expiry
date is the one on the document itself, placed there by the USCIS. Hell
the couple lives in one of the most affluent cities in all of
Westchester County and if they didn't hire an attorney to do their
documentation for them when they obviously did not have a clue about
what is or is not why is the USCIS to blame for their stupidity. And
why is she given special treatment. If it were you and I, do you really
think that our Reps would go to bat for us and obtain a special
visitor's visa for us. Think no.

I don't know their financial circumstance but I'm not sure that living
in an affluent town necessarily means you have money. I lived in one of
the most expensive areas in London but that didn't mean that everyone
there was loaded.



I imagine they made the right noises and because of her circumstances it
was deemed newsworthy and her reps became involved.

I'm guessing she was paroled until January 2004 (that was stamped in one
of her reentries). The AP itself has only ONE validity date before
which you can still use it.

Not sure what you mean by one validity date before which you can
still use it.



It does have a date by which it expires. The examiner at the POE did
apparently what examiners at JFK have to done to others, Peter Newton
included. Wrote in an expiry date for after the expiration of the
A/P itself and this is the date the woman went by instead of the date
on the A/P.



As for sibsie's comment about affluent area, he owns his own technology
business which employs 20 people and she works as a surgerical assistant
in a vet hospital in Connecticut. They live in an area where the
average price of a small cottage (2 bedroom) is over $500,000. These
are educated people and she has been living in the US for at least 10
years, apparently with appropriate visas to attend school (the same
college I graduated from) and to work prior to marriage to a US citizen.



These factors make it hard for me to believe that someone with their
advantages did not seek immigration attorney assistance in obtaining her
AOS. Even if they did not, there is no excuse why they did not read the
paperwork sent to them by the USCIS and know that A/P is only valid
until the date written on the A/P itself. I'm sorry if anyone feels
that I find this story a distrubing one for reasons other than her
removal and health conditions. I truly believe if it were not for the
fact that the newspaper published her plight last month, Ms. Clinton and
Mr. Schumer would never have become involved. I honestly believe it is
was only because of the impeding press coverage that either of them
bothered to lift a voice on her behalf. How many New Yorkers among us
have asked both these senators for assistance just to find out status
and have not had the couresty of a reply. Fortunately, Ms. Lowey's
office was the one that intervened on my husband's behalf. She has
always been a congressional representative who has given a damn about
her constituents.



But regardless it is very unfortunate that her health condition was
discovered after her removal at the US POE. She is now, I understand,
in possession of or will be in possession soon of a tourist visa for
entry up to six months. If she is not again denied at the POE, here's
hoping that she receives good medical care and can beat the disease.
