Reference. Farmworker Bulletin (FWB) No. 90-10 (January 25, 1990). Background. Section 303 of Immigration Reform and Control Act amended the INA by adding provisions relating to the control of illegal and legal immigration into the United States. The new Section 210A of the INA provided a system for granting temporary resident alien status to RAWs. The number of RAWs to be admitted (or to acquire the status of lawful admission) is to be jointly determined each Fiscal Year (FY) by the Secretaries of Labor and Agriculture, and will be the smaller of (1) the calculated numerical limitation, and (2) the number determined necessary to meet a shortage of workers to perform seasonal agricultural services (SAS). FWB No. 90-10 transmitted procedures to be used by (1) the Secretaries for the determination of the RAW number, (2) SAS employers for appealing for an increase in the shortage number, and (3) RAWs for petitioning for a decrease in the number of days of work required to maintain their status. Policy. The attached notice announces the determination that the number of workers to be admitted (or have their status adjusted) to meet a shortage of workers to perform SAS during FY 1992 is zero. Action. None required. Inquiries. Contact the Federal Representative assigned to your grant.

At a nationwide series of meetings with representatives of all State agencies in August 1971, Manpower Administration staff discussed draft procedural guides which were proposed for implementation of the requirements of the Supreme Court's decision in the Java case.

Under separate cover, we are sending to each State agency five copies of the procedures, revised in the light of the August discussions.

UIPL No. 1126 advised that States should issue as quickly as possible, but not later than September 1, 1971, predetermination procedures to provide for the necessary notice and hearing opportunity to claimants and employers. Later the States were informed through the Regional Manpower Administrators that any State that must have the Java procedures prepared by the Manpower Administration before it could implement changes in its predetermination procedures would have until two weeks after receipt of the Java procedures to effectuate the necessary changes in its procedures. Accordingly, States that have not revised their procedures should do so as soon as possible, with an implementation date not later than two weeks after receipt of the Java procedures.

Reference. DINAP Bulletin 84-2. Background. DINAP Bulletin 84-2 transmitted a guide to assist grantees in developing procedures to implement Section 504 of the JTPA. Paragraph 3 of that bulletin said that research is underway regarding the ramifications of the Jay Treaty and other related questions. The result of this research is in the answer to the first question in Section 4. Information. The following are questions and answers regarding Section 504. Q. Does the Jay Treaty of 1794, an agreement allowing free access and travel across the Canadian-United States border by Canadian and American Indians, exempt some JTPA applicants from complying with Section 504 of the Act? A. Advise your applicants that Canadian Indians residing in the United States and United States Citizens must comply with Section 504 to participate in JTPA programs. Only lawfully admitted non-immigrant aliens pursuant to the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 are exempt. if they enter the United States without establishing residence they are not subject to selective service registration. Federal courts consistently have held that subsequent enactment of selective service statutes superseded whatever selective service registration and induction exemption Canadian Indians residing in the United States arguably may have had earlier under the Jay Treaty. Q. Where do grantee applicants go to register with the SSS? A. Advise your applicants to register at their local post office. Q. How can grantees verify, in a timely manner, applicant compliance with Section 504? A. Grantees are advised to use phone verification with the SSS (toll-free hotline-1- 800-621-5388). Within seven days of the phone call, grantees will receive verification by letter from the SSS if applicant has complied with Section 504. The letter will contain applicant's name and SSS number. The letter will be verification of Section 504 compliance until such time as an acknowledgement letter (SSS Form 3) has been received. Q. Are there any other ways to quickly verify applicant compliance with Section 504? A. Yes, the attachment to DINAP Bulletin 84-2 outlines three ways: Self-certification with sample verification; verification of registration prior to enrollment; and enrollment and self-certification followed by universal verification. Q. Does the SSS have a procedure where an applicant can register for the draft at the JTPA office? A. Yes, a successful pilot program in September 1983 in Utah paved the way for a permanent procedure today. A description of this procedure can be found in DINAP Bulletin 84-2. Questions. Contact your DINAP Federal Representative.
