I've been on websites but can't find the rules/regulations or steps on how to go about moving. Any suggestions would be great.

Do you think America has a Immigration problem?

Does the current level of immigration that America is experiencing have positive or negative ramifications?


Do you think America is a melting pot or a salad bowl? Why ?

A study by the U.S. Congressional Budget Office released Tuesday backs up the view that undocumented immigrants sap more tax dollars than they provide, especially in education, health care and law enforcement.

The study pulled together reports from the past five years, using data from sources including the Pew Hispanic Center, the Rand Corp., the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and various universities. The Congressional study also incorporated facts from states, including Arizona, but its authors acknowledged there was no aggregate estimate that could be applied to the entire country.

The report says that in 1990, 90 percent of undocumented immigrants primarily were in six states: California, Florida, Illinois, New Jersey, New York and Texas.

By 2004, undocumented immigrants had increased tenfold in other states, most notably Arizona, Georgia, North Carolina and Tennessee, according to statistics from the Pew Hispanic Center.

The report estimates there are 12 million undocumented immigrants nationwide. Of those, 60 percent are uninsured and 50 percent of the children are uninsured. Again using 2004 statistics from the Pew Hispanic Center the average income of undocumented immigrants was $27,400 while Americans earned $47,800. The difference puts undocumented immigrants in a lower tax bracket, thus reducing the amount of federal and state income taxes generated.

The study also showed that while undocumented workers represented just 5 percent of state and federal service costs, their tax revenue did not offset the amount spent by government. The authors of the study stated that, "the general consensus is that unauthorized immigrants impose a net cost on state and local budgets. However, no agreement exists as to the size of, or even the best way of measuring, that cost at a national level."

In education, which the study notes is the largest single expenditure http://www.bizjournals.com/phoenix/stories/2007/12/17/daily19.html

Of these non-citizen Latino adults, an estimated 55% are undocumented immigrants and the other 45% are legal aliens.

Hispanics who are not citizens feel much more vulnerable in the current environment than do Hispanics who are citizens. They are about twice as likely as Hispanic citizens to worry about deportation and to feel a specific negative personal impact from the heightened attention to illegal immigration.

Why do legal aliens worry about being deported, and what should be done about it....if anything?

Tancredo...the anti-immigration Republican is in last place. Could it be that most Americans don't care about Immigration the way you think they do?
Will you throw a tantrum when the Democrats win?

"There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all.

This is just as true of the man who puts "native" before the hyphen as of the man who puts German or Irish or English or French before the hyphen. Americanism is a matter of the spirit and of the soul. Our allegiance must be purely to the United States. We must unsparingly condemn any man who holds any other allegiance.

But if he is heartily and singly loyal to this Republic, then no matter where he was born, he is just as good an American as any one else.

The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English- Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian- Americans, or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality than with the other citizens of the American Republic.

The men who do not become Americans and nothing else are hyphenated Americans; and there ought to be no room for them in this country. The man who calls himself an American citizen and who yet shows by his actions that he is primarily the citizen of a foreign land, plays a thoroughly mischievous part in the life of our body politic. He has no place here; and the sooner he returns to the land to which he feels his real heart-allegiance, the better it will be for every good American."

Sheriff Joe Arpaio is preparing for a showdown on Wednesday when immigration rights advocates plan to march in Phoenix.

Arpaio said "we will have our experts in enforcing illegal immigration laws and if we come across any illegals pursuant to crime we will arrest them."

The Sheriff plans to send deputies to a neighborhood near 24th Street and Thomas where the march will begin at 9am.

This is the same area where protesters gather for weekly rallies. Marchers plan to take their rally to City Hall.

I have got my marriage certificate but the same is in Marathi.
When I requested them that i needed the certificate in English they gave the logic that I had filled up the registration form in Marathi so the certificate will be in Marathi(This is not mentioned anywhere).

How do i get a English marriage certificate.?
I have heard that this causes problems in visa issue(especially work permit visas)
Is this also required for a travel/business visa
Is a translated notarized copy accepted by embassies.
I intend to stay in the middle east (UAE/Qatar)

There are many people here illegally from other countries.
People come from European countries.
People come across the Mexican border, across the Canadian border and many don't even sneak in they come in legally and stay passed their visa expires
And by the way many illegal immigrants coming from the Mexican border arent even Mexicans.
