Each year, NJICLE’s comprehensive Immigration Conference provides an in-depth exploration of the most pressing concerns confronted by Immigration Lawyers, Employment Lawyers, Human Resource Representatives and In-House Counsel and offers effective strategies for dealing with those concerns.
 
Neil Dornbaum, Chair of Connell Foleys Immigration and Global Mobility Practice Group is the Chair and Course book Editor for this year’s program.  This Conference presents a rare opportunity to hear directly from heads of the governmental agencies who directly affect immigration/labor policy and procedure. You won’t find a better opportunity to catch up on all of the latest developments. This one-day program is packed with information that will help you navigate changes in the law and meet current challenges.
 
This year we will be reviewing the new Administration’s immigration policies and how they continue to impact daily immigration practices. Representatives from key governmental agencies, (USCIS, USCBP, USICE, DOS and DOJ ) responsible for implementing these changes, together with prominent attorneys will address the questions practitioners are seeking to resolve.
 
In addition, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer will push for comprehensive immigration reform to get through Congress. Understand the status of The House of Representatives American Dream and Promise Act and the Farm Workforce Modernization Act. If enacted into law, the American Dream and Promise Act would provide a path to citizenship for several million Dreamers, and DED and TPS holders. The FWMA would offer similar protection to more than 1 million undocumented farm workers and their immediate families.
 
Hear from Chief of Staff - Immigration for Senator Menendez, Alice Lugo,  on the status of these and other major pieces of legislation.

There is no better source of information about government practices, procedures, time estimates, and delays than hearing directly from government decision makers.
