Cash will now expedite your work permit, in new Biden immigration rule

Applicants for work permits can pay $1,500 to speed up process
Revenue will ease massive backlogs at immigration agency

(Reuters) – The Biden administration on Tuesday released a final rule expanding a program that allows applicants for various employment-related immigration benefits to pay up to $2,500 to speed up the process, in a bid to ease massive backlogs at the agency.The rule from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) extends the existing “premium processing” service to applications for an Employment Authorization Document, which allows recipients to work in the U.S. while they seek asylum or other legal status.About 2 million people apply for new or renewed work permits each year, according to USCIS data. The process typically takes five to seven months, leaving many immigrants unable to support themselves and their families in the meantime.Register now for FREE unlimited access to Reuters.comRegisterUnder Tuesday’s rule, which takes effect in 60 days, individuals seeking work permits can pay $1,500 to have their applications considered within 30 days. The premium fee ranges up to $2,500 for applications for other kinds of employment-related adjustments in legal status.USCIS said it plans to phase in the expansion so that it will not negatively impact applicants who do not pay a premium fee. The backlog at USCIS grew to 9.5 million cases last month as the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated an existing bottleneck at the agency.The agency also said it will have to hire and train new staff to expand premium processing in line with the new rule, which it plans to pay for using revenue from current applications for premium processing.USCIS is funded primarily through the fees paid by applicants for various immigration benefits. The agency on Tuesday estimated it would collect an additional $9.7 million in fees per year under the new rule.Register now for FREE unlimited access to Reuters.comRegisterOur Standards: The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles.Daniel WiessnerDan Wiessner (@danwiessner) reports on labor and employment and immigration law, including litigation and policy making.

Pet dog helps US family spot mountain lion under deck. Watch rescue video

A family in Colorado, US did not expect a mountain lion resting under the deck of their house when their pet dog alerted them to the animal’s presence. As a torch was lit under the deck, they were shocked to find the mountain lion on Sunday while they expected a raccoon, UPI reported.
The family contacted authorities for rescuing the big cat and Colorado Parks and Wildlife, Boulder Open Space and Mountain Parks, and the Boulder Police Department jointly undertook the rescue operation. The big cat was tranquillised by CPW wildlife officer Tyler Asnicar, and released into a remote area later, as per a People report.
A video shared on a YouTube channel, Jason Clay, showed the rescue operation. The big cat is seen resting under the deck, tranquillised, and then transferred into a cage. Later, when the feline wakes up, it is taken to a remote area and let free.
Watch the video:

“The mountain lion maybe not be fully grown or may belong to juvenile age class, approximately 115 pounds. The healthy-looking cat seems recovered from the anaesthesia pretty well,” a rescue team member was heard saying in the video.
“One factor we look at is location when we get cats that come into town,” wildlife officer Tyler Asnicar was quoted as saying by UPI citing a press release.
“This one was pretty far east in Boulder in a populated area and it is not a good situation to have a big predator like that close to so many people. It is better for the people and the cat to try to move it. The relocation was our best approach in this case,” he added.
