  Important Clarification and Supplement on Summary of the Mark-up

Besides the amendments listed in IFCSS HQ NR #7062, several pieces of
important messages are provided  right now after the HQ staff checked 
carefully with Simpson's office late this afternoon. We apologize for 
the incomplete information released before:

1. H-1B fee eliminated, dual intent restored, and no showing of 
   reduced dependency, except for H-1B dependent employers/aliens. 
   H-1B dependent employers defined as those with fewer than 41 
   employees and four or more H-1Bs; or 41 or more employees and 10%
   H-1Bs (Simpson);

2. Prevailing wage determinations for academic researchers based on
   non-profit sector only (Simon);

3. Reduced investor visas restored ($500,000) (Simon);

4. Overseas experience requirement eliminated for H-1B and permanent
   categories; experience requirement reduced to 3 years for profe-
   ssionals with advanced or bachelors degrees and skilled workers;
   (Simpson).

Please make a note of it when HQ NR #7062 is forwarded. We sincerely
apologize again for this inconvenience.

By the way, Senator Simpson will announce his retirement within a
couple of days.
