This is a very beneficial article for those who are trapped in this  rule for no reason. So what is the solution for the people who are on hold because of this rule , specially who  falls under the third category. it seems that who are the victims in their home country would be victimized by this rule too.

solution: chant Hanuman Chalisa... and pray   i've found no other solution.. lots of people talk about it but no one knows the solution except to wait for ever.. so many people have read this article but no one cared to write anything.. you might find it intersting but according to the tier III list Nepali congress is a terrorist group... this author is right, some are successful filing for mandamus while others are not..

Your status and arrival at the POE won't be affected by this hold, meaning, you can safely travel in and out, regardless of this hold.

how many nepalese have been affected by the tier  iii. many people have given their asylum application in the basis of being nepali congress party, communist party. so that means all the nepalese political parties are terrorist according to the so called tier iii. i dont know from where the US brings these types of rules just to trap the people for no reason.

while asylees are granted to stay and work, they can not bring their families or apply for green card and get in the line to get citizenship.. further more, their asylum can be stripped anytime and they have to face deportation, who knows even arrests. currently there are over 6 thousands people on hold.. lots of Nepalis..like the author said there is no solution but to wait , no one knows if such wait will bring good news or bad news.. some people are waiting for more than 10-12 years.. so asylum is not an easy cake.. i am seeing lots of Nepalis coming from Nepal filing asylum like it's their birth given right.. specially from california...

want to add my two cents worth of advice too... 1. the article in nepali is an extremely useful article. 2. it addresses lot of background issues. 3. it does not shed adequate light in how things are moving these days in the asylum front. there is lot happening than what is written above. in fact, that article could have been written in 2006 and still would have been outdated by nearly a year! 4. for those who want details and updates on asylum issues, subscribe to human rights first newsletter. it will keep you in forefront of anything that is happening out there, far ahead of the tons of lawyers in fact. 5. for "chef" above, i am no lawyer, but my understanding was that you CANNOT go back to your country which you said in your asylum application was dangerous to return to. well, you can go in theory, but upon your return, you will face a very very hostile immigration officer at the port of entry. and by law, you should explain why it was not dangerous to go there and stay for a while, and suddenly it became dangerous all over again. in other words, you could be prevented from getting into amrika altogether. asylees, like refugees, need to know that you can legally travel outside amrika only after seeking permission from uscis through a process called advance parole, but again, that does not mean you can freely go to nepal and be back here. yes it means you can go anywhere else, except nepal. this advance parole thing will apply until u get amrika citizenship. mr. dyamn says traveling should not be a problem for mr. chef. during my years of research and interaction with people, i did not find any literature or cases to support his version of information above. i could have been wrong. that said, i hold to my version of the statement above! 8. i wrote an elaborate note on this discussion about a month ago. i hate to repeat it. good luck guys. remember to go to a good attorney at law, as always.

 i overlooked the most obvious possiblity that he might be going to Nepal after filing Nepal as his country of prosecution, i am sorry, but if his family is in India, Canada, thailand or any other country then he should be fine with his greencard( the gentleman didn't state that he's going to Nepal, who knows where his family is).. yes you're right an asylee going to his/her country of prosecution can be very devastating interms of his papers in the USA for the exact same reason you explained above.  my understanding of advanced parole is that it is to come back to the USA from a short trip abroad. Since he already holds a green card he should not need an advanced parole. Asylees , just like refugees can also file for Refugee Travel Doccument (RTD) if they don't have a green card. Again, i am not an expert in immigration matters, i am just trying to inform and learn, i maybe totally wrong.. the article above is published the same day i posted. i emailed the lawyer and he sent me the link to that article. the weblink below also contains very useful informations.. http://forums.immigration.com/...

Does India approves the RTD? i have heard that the immigrations there gives a hard time too.

village · Jul 4, 2010 10:02 PM

hello dyam , Yes your are right . I was asking if i can travel to countries other than Nepal and was wondering if i will have problems returning back. Thank you Kailo for sharing information.

chef · Jul 5, 2010 12:20 PM

You can go to any country once you have a RTD. Also, like I've already mentioned, the hold doesn't make you inadmissible. As long as you have a valid RTD, you can leave the country and return back without any problem, even if your case is on hold.

Bidroh · Jul 5, 2010 12:42 PM

Oh, if you are traveling to places other than the country of persecution on file for you at the uscis (looks like nepal in your case), it should be okay. i have had a few friends who went to india, stayed near the india-nepal border and asked family members to visit him.

kailo · Jul 5, 2010 1:50 PM

"i have had a few friends who went to india, stayed near the india-nepal border and asked family members to visit him." Who are you fooling, Kailo?

Bidroh · Jul 5, 2010 2:37 PM

lol Bidroh,he must be such an honest asylee.. rite? maybe he used a telephone made by salayee ko batta and used one on the INdian side and handed another one to his family in Nepali side and used binoculors to see each other.
