Coercive Population Control Asylum Conditional Asylees Must Report Current Address
This fact sheet discusses coercive population control (CPC) asylum. It is intended for general informational purposes only and is not a substitute for legal advice, nor does it constitute any legal opinion by the Department of Justice. This fact sheet is not fully inclusive; does not address all applicable laws including case interpretation; and may be subject to change as new laws and regulations are enacted.
In 1996, the definition of refugee in asylum law was changed to include individuals who have been persecuted by undergoing a forced abortion, involuntary sterilization, or other resistance to a CPC program (CPC asylum). When first enacted, the number of individuals who could be granted CPC asylum was limited to 1,000 per fiscal year. As a result, individuals granted CPC asylum beyond the 1,000 cap were granted asylum on a conditional basis. On May 11, 2005, the President signed into law H.R. 1268, the “Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act for Defense, the Global War on Terror, Tsunami Relief, 2005." That law eliminated the numerical limit on CPC asylum grants; therefore, individuals with conditional grants of asylum (CPC asylees) no longer have to wait for a number before being processed for asylee status. However, CPC asylees still cannot receive a final grant of asylum until they clear updated background, identity, and security checks.
The Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) periodically provides the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) with an updated list of CPC asylees who were issued conditional grants of asylum by EOIR, but who have not yet cleared the security checks. In these cases, DHS sends scheduling notices for fingerprints to an alien’s last known address on file at EOIR. Accordingly, CPC asylees are reminded of their continuing obligation to provide change of address information to both EOIR and DHS. Incorrect or outdated address information jeopardizes their eligibility for full asylum benefits.

KY Consensual Sex...???
I have a friend of a friend of a friend - that knows of a young man who is now 18 yrs old and his ex-girlfriend is 16 yrs old. When they first started dating he was 17 and she was 15. It has come out that before she turned 16 she ended up pregnant. In the state of KY the consensual age for sex is 16, but being she got pregnant before 16 - is he at risk for getting into trouble? I have been researching for two days to try to get an answer, but haven�t been able to find anything. To my understanding, the parents of the girl were fully aware of them having sex and even took him on their family vacations out of state and have allowed him to spend the night at their house. To me, her parents are SO wrong for knowingly allowing them to have sex. KY is a Commonwealth State can the state draw up charges against him if they choose - what can he do - or where can I go to find answers to this? She also told me that if he does not sign over his rights to the baby because they have broken up that her parents are going to file charges against him. They have done nothing at this time, but from what my friend told me this young man is an emotional wreck. I told her I would do some research online �then I found your website. THANKS - Jen
Eric has a conversation with his friend Amy Annandale, an established Media professional and a sole proprietor. Ann offers to mentor Eric and tells him that she will make him a loan in the amount of $250,000 to help him get started. Eric is thrilled by this opportunity. Eric, LLC enters into a "Loan Agreement" with Ann, dated May 1, 2010 that contains the following provisions:
Ann will loan Ben, LLC $250,000, which shall accrue interest at 0%.
Eric, LLC will give 10% of its profits to Ann every month until the loan is paid back in full.
Ann must be consulted prior to Eric, LLC making any financial commitments (e.g., (1) taking on additional debt, or (2) hiring an employee). Eric, LLC cannot take on any new financial commitments without Ann's approval.
On September 1, 2010 Eric, LLC decides that it needs another loan to continue operations. Eric, LLC takes out a loan from ABC Bank N/A in the amount of $100,000 (after consulting with and receiving the approval of Ann). At that point, $200,000 of the loan from Ann is still outstanding, that is to say, Eric, LLC has only paid back $50,000 to Ann.
On September 1, 2011 Eric, LLC defaults on the loan from ABC Bank N/A. The bank brings a lawsuit against Eric, LLC and Ann, claiming that Eric, LLC and Ann are partners and jointly liable on the debt
Are Eric, LLC and Ann partners?
