Lost and Found

I have heard of this kind of thing happening before — to other people. Now I know these other people weren’t joking when posting lost and found misdirected mail notices on the American Immigration Lawyers Association online discussion forum: “Got someone else’s approval notice — any takers?” Just received a letter from the USCIS that was intended for another attorney in another city, but was enclosed in the same envelope as my letter. Had to scan and email the letter to that attorney. Hey, saves a stamp. I tip my hat to the USCIS customer service wizards.

USCIS on Social Networking

Just read that the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) has obtained through FOIA litigation a copy of USCIS memo on the importance of social networking sites in their efforts to investigate and combat immigration-related fraud. The government finally waking up to the possibilities of harnessing the awesome energy of our collective narcissism is nothing new, of course. But this gave me an idea. Why not do the reverse? Wouldn’t it be great if we could find and “friend” USCIS, U.S. Department of State, or U.S. Department of Labor employees and “poke” them with questions about their work while gently testing the boundaries of their “friendship.” You never know how this may end up being useful in uncovering evidence of bias, prejudice, or even incompetence.
