website review

The website usimmigrationsupport.org
is useful, truthful, and gives easy to understand facts on immigration today. The website usimmigrationsupport.org is fast to navigate, it’s laid out perfectly, and it doesn’t use circumlocution, it gets to the point, and you can find information fast. The best thing is that it is an independent organization; it’s not trying to make money like other websites. It provides you with reliable information because what is written is checked before being posted. It credible because the website has different certificates like, Truste, High- Assurance SSL Security , Trustkeeper and many others that provide email Privacy Seal, trusted download Programs, and protects all information submitted online. Last update was this year in 2009, and it provides contact information. The website talks about what an immigrant is, why they migrated, how they got to the United States, what immigrants do once they’re in the U.S., and it also gives a little background information on immigration. The information given also talks about what some people think about immigration, therefore it’s not biased.

There is a lot of content on this site, so you can learn about many topics. For example, Immigrants are individuals residing in a country illegally. Immigrants are also known as undocumented aliens, migrant, unauthorized migrant, illegal migrant or illegal aliens. Some immigrants enter the country legally but overstay the number of days on their visa or they violate the terms on their permanent resident card or refugee permit. Many immigrants leave loved ones and valuable possessions behind to come to their new home or country. Immigrants leave their home country due to political or economic reasons. Immigrants move to countries with advanced technology, greater resources, or that offer better opportunities for them or their children. Children of illegal immigrants born in the United States automatically gain citizenship.

Some other information I learned on this site is that, there are many different ways that immigrants cross the border to get to the United States. Some circumnavigate different countries to get to the United States. The most popular method use by Caribbean’s is by home made boats because they have to cross the Atlantic Ocean. Immigrants from South America fly into Mexico and there they fine illicit assistance of a coyote (smuggler) to help them cross the borders. If you cross with help of a coyote, they usually cram you into shipping containers, trucks, or boxcars. They may also be able to pay of corrupt authority figures. Most coyotes find a way to get to their destination and it sometimes includes the death of some people. It may also take numerous times to successfully cross the border, because security measures have increased and with advanced technology it’s difficult to pass the border and avoid detection.

The website even addresses some issues with illegal immigration. Once in the United States illegal immigrants become employed in what is known as “low skilled jobs.” Because there’s no requirement to be fluent in the English language, landscaping, construction, restaurants, hospitality, prostitution, agriculture and domestic services are popular with immigrants. “Some argue that illegal immigrants tend to take on the jobs that resident or citizens refuse, while others argue that illegal immigrants take away jobs in general.”(usimmigrationsupport.org) Work regulations in the U.S. prohibit employers from hiring illegal immigrants, but some employers don’t care. Some employers even take advantage of an employee’s undocumented status. Not everyone comes to the United States voluntarily. In the 19th century the importation of slaves was big. They used slaves to work. Eventually that ended but now human trafficking is still common. Young woman are promised jobs, it seems like a good idea at first, they need to escape poverty, but the when they get here they find out their purpose is for prostitution. In general the website usummigrationsupport.org gave good information that was easy to follow along. The information was accurate and reliable.
