General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade
RESTRICTED ADP/W/42/Add.l GENERAL AGREEMENT ON 25 October 1982 TARIFFS AND TRADE Special Distribution *• See bound volume for :.:.^ Committee on Anti-Dumping Practices for mÉàÊÙkat+d to this document. BACKGROUND INFORMATION FOR ANNUAL REVIEW OF THE OPERATION OF THE AGREEMENT Note by the Secretariat Addendum Attached' is the Summary of Anti-Dumping Actions taken within the period 1 July 1980-30 June 1981 and 1 July 1981-30 June 1982. The late submission of several semi-annual reports and the lack of more detailed information made impossible more comprehensive analysis of the developments in this field. However some preliminary conclusions can be drawn. 1. There has been some increase in the number of anti-dumping actions in 1981/1982 as compared with 1980/1981: (a) Initiations: 1980/1981 - 71 (7)1 1981/1982 - 156 (19) (b) Provisional measures: 1980/1981 - 39 (2) 1981/1982 - 41 (8) (c) Definite duties: 1980/1981 - 24 (-) 1981/1982 - 60 (6) (d) Price undertakings: 1980/1981 - 11 (1) 1981/1982 - 18 (1) 2. Actions J:aken by the three most active Parties (Canada, EEC and the United States ) in the anti-dumping field affect (at least in the quantitative sense) mainly other developed Parties. It does not seem that this conclusion would be modified if the analysis was completed by inclusion of cases which were dismissed or terminated by a negative finding in the course of an investigation. Number in brackets indicate actions affecting developing countries. 2 Australia has not been included in this analysis because insufficient information was available.

U. S. Citizenship and Immigration
U.S. Department of Homeland Security 20 Mass, Rrn. A3042,425 1 Street, N.W. Washington, DC 20536 U. S. Citizenship and Immigration APPLICATION: Application for Status as a Permanent Resident pursuant to Section 1104 of the Legal Immigration Family Equity (LIFE) Act of 2000, Pub. L. 106-553, 114 Stat. 2762 (2000), amended by Life Act Amendments, Pub. L. 106-554, 114 Stat. 2763 (2000). ON BEHALF OF APPLICANT: INSTRUCTIONS: This is the decision of the Administrative Appeals Office in your case. The file has been returned to the District Office. If your appeal was sustained, or if the matter was remanded for further action, you will be contacted. If your appeal was dismissed, you no longer have a case pending before this office, and you are not entitled to file a motion to reopen or reconsider your case. Robert P. Wiemann, Director Administrative Appeals Office DISCUSSION: The application for permanent resident status under the Legal Immigration Family Equity (LIFE) Act was denied by the District Director, Los Angefes, CAYand is now before the Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) on appeal. The appeal will be dismissed. The district director denied the application because the applicant had not demonstrated that she had continuously resided in the United States in an unlawful status from before January 1, 1982 through May 4, 1988. On appeal, counsel asserts that the applicant qualifies for relief in that she did enter the United States before January 1, 1982 and has continuously resided in the United States since that time. An applicant for permanent resident status must establish entry into the United States before January 1, 1982 and continuous residence in the United States in an unlawful status since such date and through May 4, 1988. -
