csc inquiry

[gretchen_darren 67]

been looking at what extreme emergent situation means or humanitarian aid means. Neither are defined in the US code. there is no provision for an expedite based on a state of emergency in the area. Extreme emergent situation is for local family in serious healthcare issues here, or the fiance having serious health issues. Humanitarian aid is defined as issues such as Japan or Haiti. (Issues of natural/man-made disasters affecting the area.)

Military expedite due to needs of orders. the others are harder to get for a finance or spouse visa unless you work for the government or work with or a part of a non-profit.

the proposed definitions I am working on:

"Extreme emergent situations" term means an immediate and serious threat to personal, immediate family, or public health, welfare or safety such as may arise by reason of natural disasters, epidemics, riots, terrorist incidents, equipment failures or other similar circumstances to include the local US embassy in the region recognizing state of emergencies or declared state of emergencies by the country regarding the region where the immigrant resides.

"Humanitarian situations" term means where food, clean water, medical care is a problem such as natural/man-made disasters, to also include locations where US Aid is providing humanitarian aid or US Aid recognizes health, economic, or conflict areas as a current situation in the region.

(not defined, but seems to be "Extreme emergent situation":

"Medical situation" term means a health concern or situation with either the immigrant, petitioner, or petitioner's family where the immigrant, petitioner or immediate family member is either in need of health care or at serious risk, this can be but not limited to: pregnancy, cancer, leukemia, organ failure or transplant, serious accident, or other long term care needs. This may also include causing financial hardship due to medical care or affect the petitioner's ability for gainful employment.

Thoughts?
