Barrister Eric Geraud II US Immigration Advocate ericgeraudII@dcemail.com Successful applicants will have their entry visas processed from their country of choice for employment and housing resettlement programme. All entry visas will be applied for from the respective government right channels for the visas depending on the system of Government being operated by the country. All visas and other documents for each group will be applied for on behalf of each group by the US Immigration Lawyers. The groups for the US programmes will have their documents processed from the US Department of States- Federal Bureau of Immigrant Affairs in Washington. WRAHA has no authority to authorised applicants documents. It is the Immigration Lawyers who are experts on this field. It is the duty of the US Immigration Lawyers to apply for all needed documents direct from US Federal Bureau of Immigrant Affairs and also apply for the US labor certificates from the US Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) and immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) whose regulations requires that Aliens (person) seeking to enter US on basis of employment must obtain the US Labor certificates, which Will enable Alien to work legally in the US. The US Immigration Lawyers files an application on behalf of the individual Alien or applicant to the INS and the Department of State respectively. The actual admission of the Alien and the granting of authorization to work in the US is the responsibility of INS. The handling of documents processing by the US Immigration Lawyer and Refugee Immigration Lawyers has made the processing of all documents for applicants very effective. When the processing of the entry visas is completed, we will forward confirmation of the authorized visas by fax to the embassy at the group’s home country and the same copy will also be forwarded to the group. We will then contact the Consular in your country and arrange for the day the group will appear at the embassy for the issuance of the visa seals in your passports. The visas can only be issued to the group members whose names have already been file down as of the time the documents were being processed. Without the presentation of the confirmation of the authorized visas to the consular, the Visas will then be denied to the group. Applicants are therefore advised for their own benefits not to appear at the embassy without the copy of the confirmation of the authorized visas or before the confirmations are forwarded to them or the Embassy. On receipt of the authorized visa confirmation by fax, groups that have no US embassy in their country or group that doesn’t want to appear at the Embassy can mail their international passports by DHL to the head office or to our office at the group’s chosen country for resettlement or for employment and housing resettlements for the issuance of the visas seals in their passports. The DHL to and fro mailing cost of passports is at the expense of the group. Before mailing the passports by DHL, Group members should makes sure that they mail their passports along with the copy their group visa confirmation. Any group passports received at our office by DHL without the confirmation sent along with it will be returned without any visas. ASSISTANCE ON EMERGENCY TRAVELLING CERTIFICATE APPLICATION FEE FOR THE UN EMERGENCY TRAVEL CERTIFICATE ……$120 USD The US Bureau of Immigrant Affairs have made arrangement to assist participants without international passports with the UN Refugee Emergency Travel certificate, if they are able to fulfilled the needed requirements for the processing. The requirements include the following 1. Scanned passport photograph for each participant applying for the document and should be sent by e-mail attachment. 2. Names of participants, dates of birth and name of participants’ resident country. The processing of these documents will commence immediately the requested requirements are forwarded but will be finalised when the forms are returned by fax along with the payment receipt for application and UN Emergency travel certificates. Since its creation in 1951,International Organisation for Migration (IOM) has helped more than 11 million people to start new lives in their own and foreign countries or through resettlement abroad. Each immigrant has a unique story to tell. Many were fleeing deprivation, danger and fear of persecution. Others were simply seeking a better life for themselves and their families. The personal accounts contained in this section of the IOM website tell the stories of some of these immigrants - what they experienced and how IOM’s intervention has helped change their lives. The stories were made possible by the many governments who contribute to IOM’s activities, our international and non-governmental partner agencies, and the dedication and commitment of IOM’s 3,500 staff worldwide. On receipt visa confirmation, we shall forward the group data’s to the office of the IOM for them to give instruction to the Airlines to issue the ticket booklets to the successful applicants whose groups visas has been authorised and confirmed by fax. All successful applicants will receive the one-way tickets at the airline sales office in their country or at the sales office closer to their country after the processing of their documents. International flights, Air France and other airlines have been chosen for the trips, in some countries where Air France do not operate, alternative Airline will be provided for them The International Organisation for Migration (IOM) and other charity organisations arrange transportation to US, UK and Canada on loan basis for the group’s trip. Refugees and successful applicants are expected to repay the cost of their transportation after they have settle down in their new resident country Before the departure date, all group members are expected to have their medical reports needed for the trip. The processing cost is on group reimbursement. Directions of the documents will be given by the US Department of Health. We have received a lot of questions on why should payment be made to the zonal offices and why should the zonal offices instead of the head office issue reference file number. This program was designed to assist, protect and improve the welfares of the Refugees and citizens of third world countries around the world. Formerly this programme was being presided or rather administrated by the international Head office in the US but we later found out that the purposes for this programme was not met. The opportunities were not getting direct to those who needed it most. Most citizens of US and other immigrants in US were applying for their families and friends who were back home in their countries, thereby making it very difficult for the Refugees and citizens of third world countries who have no friends or family in the United States not to benefit from the programme. There were a lots of people in Africa, Asia, etc who did not knew about this programme until the presiding of this programme was transferred to zonal offices and since then many Refugees and citizens of third world countries have benefited from this programmes.
