Is NPU (NorthWestern Polytechnic University) next in the list of investigated University?

An article on Buzzfeed on May 26 2016 describes NPU as “A college on the edge of Silicon Valley has turned itself into an upmarket visa mill, a BuzzFeed News investigation has found, deploying a system of fake grades and enabling thousands of foreign students to enter the United States each year — while generating millions of dollars in tuition revenue for the school and the family who controls it. “

The U nonimmigrant status (U visa) is set aside for victims of certain crimes who have suffered mental or physical abuse and are helpful to law enforcement or government officials in the investigation or prosecution of criminal activity. Congress created the U nonimmigrant visa with the passage of the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act (including the Battered Immigrant Women’s Protection Act) in October 2000. The legislation was intended to strengthen the ability of law enforcement agencies to investigate and prosecute cases of domestic violence, sexual assault, trafficking of aliens and other crimes, while also protecting victims of crimes who have suffered substantial mental or physical abuse due to the crime and are willing to help law enforcement authorities in the investigation or prosecution of the criminal activity. The legislation also helps law enforcement agencies to better serve victims of crimes. http://immigrationlegalblog.com

Consular processing is always scary for non-immigrant visa holders because it entails a very difficult and stressful process. However in certain instances, there is no choice and in certain instances it is not really a consular processing. This audio taken from our video on our youtube channel http://youtube.com/shahpeerallylaw explains some of the issues involved.

This June 2016 Visa Bulletin shows a retrogression for India and China of EB2 category of almost 4 years for India. In May 2016, India was at least in 2008. In June 2016, it is becoming a 12 years behind the current year. Not only the employment based (EB) is retrogressed but the family based (F4) category is also retrogressed for both. Indeed the June 2016 Visa Bulletin shows a disturbing processing time which ultimately is making many loose faith in the system. The government in October 2015 raise the hopes up with a new system of the visa bulletin where they divided the visa bulletin dates into two parts including an acceptance time and then a processing time. Many started to have hope again. Then during that great hope, came another bad news: the government retrogressed the dates even before they came into effect.
