QuantiFERON®-TB Gold Test Many of you will have come accross the problem of Irish immigrants who received the BCG vaccine in Ireland who consistently test positive on TB tests and are required to get xrays and in some cases asked to go on a course of drugs. There is now a new test that may be of assitance in this. It is recommended for immigrants who have had the BCG. More information can be found on the CDC website.

Petition Signatures Needed Editor: My husband Patrick Doran was in Daingean from 1958 to 1960, where he was almost killed. He is trying to get a memorial website underway, especially for the over 90 percent of the abused children who are sure to go unrecognized by the redress board or anyone else unless the government and church is forced to fund it. Our petition web address is www.icvmbf.org. Please, we are seeking signatures, not donations. Drina Doran, Norco, CA

KNOW
YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS Members of the public should remember that unless an officer has a warrant, you are not required to invite that person into your home. Under US law, you may also properly refuse any question that is put to you and instead remain silent. You do not need to cooperate with any investigation if you do not want to do so. We believe that the guidance, advice and assistance of an experienced attorney is very important in circumstances such as these. WHAT TO DO IF YOU
ARE The safest things to say are "I am going to remain silent", "I want to speak to my lawyer", and "I do not consent to a search." See also our info page on Deportation here 
FEE Hikes for Immigration Services USCIS Implements New Application
and Petition Fee Schedule Today Adjustment of status applicants
eligible under July Visa Bulletin exempt from new fees WASHINGTON—U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) reminds the public
that its new fee schedule is effective today, July 30, 2007. USCIS announced the new fee schedule in May 2007 following a comprehensive review of nearly 4,000 public comments. The final fee schedule includes a reduction in fees for some families applying for adjustment of status, expands fee waiver and exemption eligibility, allows a one-time free extension of orphan petitions for prospective adoptive parents, and replaces old fees on various petitions and applications with new fees that ensure appropriate funding to meet national security requirements and customer service needs, and modernize an outdated business infrastructure. For more information concerning the final fee schedule, visit USCIS’ Web site at www.uscis.gov/21stCenturyService. There, you’ll learn how USCIS will “Build an Immigration Service for the 21st Century” based upon this new fee structure. USCIS’ official fee schedule (Publication G-1055) is available for review and downloading at http://www.uscis.gov/fees. As announced on July 17, 2007, the only applicants temporarily exempt from the new fee schedule are those who are eligible to apply for employment-based adjustment of status (Form I-485) under the Department of State’s July Visa Bulletin No. 107. Detailed information for these filers is available on a special page on the USCIS Web site titled Information on Employment-based Adjustment Applications.
