No way in hell, should the U.S. Department of homeland security grant TPS to anyone from the Philippines, until you find out who needs it ? I don’t think everyone needs a TPS ? So the best answer is don’t give TPS to no one, put a end to this TPS once and for all?
There are unemployed American teachers. First employ them Greedy immigration lawyers are for TPS Ask an ordinary American if they want this
Valera is an immigration lawyer from Maryland. Ask him if he does not charge For Asylum Cases, Human Trafficking Or telling people that work With To adopt their own brother and petition them
Everyone who has commented before me seems to be ignorant of what TPS is all about. TPS designation is an immigration relief provided by the US government to undocumented immigrants whose country of origin has been devastated either by an ongoing state of war or other natural disasters. Countries who suffered from terrible, impactful disasters like Haiti have been provided temporary protection status. It does not in anyway alter the immigration status of the beneficiaries, it just gives them 18 months of relief to be able to work and travel. I think you guys need to educate yourself before posting your uneducated comments. Smarten up a little, will ya?
There are many unemployed American teachers in the U.S. Give the jobs to the Americans first. This is one reason why the economy of the U.S. is going down.
Hire legal unemployed Americans first, they cannot go to any other country when the going gets tough Immigration lawyers are pushing for this…more money for them In Haiti the whole country was devastated Will you give TPS whose family resides in Manila
It is so funny that these teachers are using the typhoon that happened in Leyte seems like they lived in that place so that they could be granted visas.
@Gabrieda Silang, I’m giving some advise, before you say that we should smarten up. Thiis is America not philippines in America if your a Undocumented or should we put it Illegal in America you don’t deserve anything from us Americans, our government job is to get rid of all Undocumented and Illegal people out of our country. Now tell me who should smarten up, I think is you should smarten up? In American you earn the respect of us Americans by not just come into America as a Undocumented or Illegal tell us you want because you don’t belong here in America until you become legal like us Americans!
Judging from the way you spell, it seems that we needed these teachers from abroad to help us out.Let them stay to improve not only the quality of their life, but also the academic skills of students. Always remember : America is a country of immigrants”
If they have chosen to live and work in the US, then that’s fine. They want a good life, which is understandable. Just make sure that if they face troubles there, they should not run to the Phil. Embassy and ask that public funds be used to ensure that they maintain their comfortable lives in the US. There is no value added in helping these teachers because the country will not benefit that much if they want to continue to stay there. What possible benefit can the folks in Leyte get if we use public funds to help these US teachers fight for their continued stay abroad? Is the amount that they sent to the Philippines (remittances) enough to offset the expenditure that the Phil. Government will be spending? Most of these teachers have already bought houses/properties and even brought their families there. So why in the world should the Phil. Government spend for their legal cases when there are thousands of cases under the Public Attorneys Office (PAO) that needs more attention? Besides, many of those affected teachers are not from the Yolanda-affected areas. They are just pretending (lying) about their true home province just to remain in the US.
