Please advise how to seek help for compensation on the the
following official negligence/ discriminal act:
My resident card was made invalid for no fault of mine;
probably a
9/11 aftermath reasons.
How can I claim compensation
I returned in 2003 to Pakistan with permaent resident
status and duly approved leave even from INS, to stay for a
year to attend to ailng parents in dotage. To return to USA, I needed to pick up RR visa from the consulate office. The consulate office, had strictly notifed then, on their
offcial website, not
to visit their office, prior to taking initial permission
on phone, on
the matter of vsit and, availability of the due documents;
probably
for security reasons. I repeatedly called almost at three weeks intervals and was
told by
some consulate official that 'yOUR PAPERS have not been
received yet;
you do not need to come; wait and call again.'. However, after a lapse of year's time, another offical
informed me to
pick up my documents for 'they are lyng here for almost a
year now;
come quick' But at the consulate office, the offical took my resident
card and,
clipped it, making it invalid to travel.
I did protest, asked for the supervisor but all in vain. The official at the consulate office was of a southeastern
by decent. Was it a clerical over-look or what?
I have copies of emails reflecting my concern over backlog
by INS then on I-131 of 400 days and that of my leave being
of 365 days; however, the INS cetified renowned lawyer from
NJ who told me via email to proceed.
If needed I can forward the emails
