Texas Service Center Fall Conference

By immigrationprof

From USCIS:

The Texas Service Center (TSC) invites all immigration stakeholders to attend the Asylum and Refugee Conference on Thursday, September 13, 2012.  The TSC is partnering with the Nebraska Service Center (NSC) to provide an opportunity to meet staff and share information on asylum- and refugee-related topics through presentation and open dialogue.  The conference will include a panel discussion with representatives from the Refugee, Asylum and International Operations (RAIO) and Service Center Operations (SCOPS) directorates, the director of the National Visa Center (tentative), as well as TSC and NSC employees.  Immigration Services Officers will also be available in the afternoon to answer your case-specific questions.  Those who RSVP for this engagement will receive a finalized agenda as the date of the conference approaches. 

For those interested, the TSC will also schedule tours of the Lockbox facility in Lewisville; our records facility at 4141 St. Augustine Road in Mesquite; or our adjudications offices at 8001 North Stemmons Freeway in Dallas on the afternoon of Tuesday, September 12.  Transportation will not be provided.  If you would like to tour one of these facilities, RSVP with your name and office information to tsc.university@dhs.gov no later than September 6, 2012 indicating the preferred location and time of your tour.

Agenda Items:  Please submit agenda items to tsc.university@dhs.gov no later than August 24, 2012.

RSVP:  If you would like to take part in this conference, please provide your full name and the office or organization you represent to Jennifer Kuylen at tsc.university@dhs.gov no later than September 6, 2012.  Registration will be limited to 200 attendees.  If more than 200 responses are received, your name will be placed on a waiting list, and you will be contacted as space becomes available.

Also, as indicated in the “Save the Date” announcement sent earlier this year, you will have the option of purchasing a catered lunch.  The cost of lunch will be approximately $7 to $10 and will consist of either barbecue or Tex-Mex (depending on the preference of the majority of respondents).  Also RSVP if you plan to purchase lunch, and indicate your preference.

We look forward to engaging with you!
