FileRight Introduces Online Software to Help DREAMers Get Relief from Deportation Under President Obama’s Executive Order


SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — As hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants gear up to apply for work permits and protection from deportation through the Expanded DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals), online software company FileRight offers these undocumented immigrants, also known as DREAMers, a simple and secure way to complete and file their paperwork.

Out of the estimated 6.5 million immigration applications filed with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) every year, hundreds of thousands are rejected for clerical mistakes. With the upcoming release of Obama’s new undocumented programs, the USCIS can expect up to 4.9 million more applications coming its way. FileRight gives immigrants the option to complete forms using easy-to-use online software, helping ensure their forms are filed properly. 

Similar to how online tax prep software helps taxpayers complete their IRS returns, FileRight allows immigrants to complete their U.S. immigration paperwork on their own through its simple, secure online platform. Available in English and Spanish, FileRight software walks customers through immigration forms question by question and provides detailed instructions on how to properly file their papers with the U.S. government. The company also promises to reimburse customers the cost of FileRight fees plus their government filing fees (for DACA that’s $465) if their application is denied.*

“My family and I have personally experienced the confusion and anxiety involved in completing immigration papers,” said FileRight CEO and founder Cesare Alessandrini. “I founded FileRight to help the millions of immigrants and DREAMers file their paperwork right.”

FileRight software for Expanded DACA will be available online at www.FileRight.com in late February 2015. To help eligible DREAMers get ready for Expanded DACA, FileRight has published “Getting Ready for Expanded DACA” available in English and Spanish for FREE download at www.FileRight.com. The guide details how DREAMers and other undocumented immigrants can apply for deportation deferral and employment authorization.

Outdoor Lifestyle, Clean Environment Outrank Economic Reasons for Latinos Living or Staying in the West

New report also finds overwhelming Latino support for Antiquities Act, public lands protection


COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Feb. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — A healthy, outdoor lifestyle and clean air, water and environment are increasingly significant factors as to why Latinos choose to live or stay in the West, outranking cost of living and economic opportunities, according to the new Colorado College State of the Rockies Project Conservation in the West Poll. This finding also sheds light on why the Antiquities Act, which is coming under fire in Congress, is supported by 86 percent of Latino voters wanting to keep the president’s ability to protect existing public lands as national monuments intact – compared to just 4 percent opposing it. Hispanic Access Foundation released the results to the Spanish-language media this afternoon.

“We’ve long known that public lands are a critical part of why people choose to live and work in the West, but our findings show that these special places are truly the cornerstone of our lifestyle, our values, and what keeps us in the West,” said Dr. Eric Perramond, Director of the Colorado College State of the Rockies Project and a professor of environmental science and southwest studies. “Towns and cities across the West have a unique competitive advantage over other regions – access to the peaks, canyons, and rivers found on national public lands.”

This year’s bipartisan survey of 2,400 registered voters – 15 percent of which were Latino – across six states, found that although Latinos are less likely than other Westerners to have ever lived outside of their current state, the same factors keep them in the West. Eighty-nine percent of Latinos cite a healthy, outdoor lifestyle and 87 percent indicate clean air, clean water and environment as to why they choose to live in the West. In comparison, 79 percent and 78 percent of respondents cited cost of living and economic opportunities respectively.

“Latinos hold a great passion for the outdoors and it’s this love that is also leading to a brand new set of advocates,” said Maite Arce, president and CEO of Hispanic Access Foundation. “In Colorado, New Mexico and California, Latinos have been visible and vocal champions for the creation of new national monuments. Time and again, we hear Latino youth and community leaders say these public lands are important to us and we must protect them for future generations. They understand the need for the Antiquities Act – not just for today’s president but for tomorrow’s too.”

The Antiquities Act, which provides the president with the authority to protect public lands like the recent San Gabriel Mountains as national monuments, has been under fire in Congress where the legislature wants to limit this function of the office. However, Latinos voters are overwhelmingly supportive (86 percent) of maintaining this presidential ability compared to just 4 percent opposing it.

Other findings of the poll include:

  • When it comes to specific environmental priorities, there is nearly unanimous Latino support for protecting and conserving natural areas for future generations (97 percent), protecting and conserving wildlife habitat (96 percent) and making sure that rangers have the resources they need to take care of public lands and provide services to visitors (96 percent).
  • 74 percent of Latinos want to funding continue for the Land and Water Conservation Fund, which receives fees charged to oil and gas companies that drill offshore in order to conserve natural areas and clean water and ensure access to outdoor recreation.
  • When it comes to state issues, not surprisingly Latino voters cite Unemployment (95 percent) as a very serious issue, but water issues in the West dominate the top five — pollution of rivers, lakes and streams (90 percent); low levels of water in rivers (87 percent); and adequate water supplies (85 percent).
  • 93 percent of Latinos surveyed say they have visited public lands managed by U.S. agencies in the last five years.

The 2015 Colorado College Conservation in the West survey is a bipartisan poll conducted by Republican pollster Lori Weigel of Public Opinion Strategies and Democratic pollster Dave Metz of Fairbank, Maslin, Maullin, Metz & Associates. The poll surveyed 400 registered voters in each of six western states (AZ, CO, NM, UT, WY, MT) for a total 2,400-person sample. The survey yields a margin of error of +/-2.9 percent nationwide and +/-4.9 statewide. The full survey and Latino results are available on the Colorado College website.

Discovery Familia Delves Deeper Into The Gypsy World With The Premiere Of MI GRAN BODA GITANA


In time for Valentine’s Day, the network’s new series profiles the life, customs and lavish weddings of the tight-knit Gypsy community in the United States


MIAMI, Feb. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The United States is a fusion of communities and cultures, but there is one in particular that isn’t well known: In the new series MI GRAN BODA GITANA, Discovery Familia examines the world of gypsies in this country and their customs, culture and celebrations. MI GRAN BODA GITANA premieres on Discovery Familia on February 17 and will air Tuesdays at 10PM E/P.

Logo – http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130222/MM64872LOGO

An estimated one million gypsies live in the US, but most keep their identities a secret to avoid the prejudice directed against their communities. In private, however, their lifestyles are anything but discrete, combining tradition with modern influences. Gypsy culture is characterized by extravagant and unpredictable celebrations, most notably weddings and, especially, the wedding dress. In this new series, viewers will see brides walk to the altar in some of the biggest, most colorful and extravagant dresses imaginable. Made by Sondra Celli, the fashion designer most in demand among Gypsy or Roma women, they include eye-catching specimens such as a 24-karat gold gown and a feathered creation sporting illuminated angel wings.

Beyond showcasing their outsized weddings and majestic attire, the new series explores stories of modern young gypsies committed to maintaining their identity and customs while forging a life outside of their local communities. Examples include the story of Danny, who wants to marry a non-gypsy girl from North Carolina, but his mother refuses to grant him permission and does everything she can to stop her son from “diluting his gypsy blood” by marrying an “American”; and Heather, a teenager who has gone against gypsy traditions and stayed in school till 18. Now she is on the verge of graduating and has to decide if she goes to college, or she stays in her culture and marry a gypsy boy.

Men are the heads of the household in this culture, but brides are the ones in control on a couple’s wedding day, making sure their fabulous dress is always the center of attention. Here are some characteristics of these unique celebrations:

Brides gauge the success of their dresses by the cuts and bruises they leave on their bodies on the day of the wedding. The voluminous skirts and gem-incrusted bodices can weigh much more than the bride herself.

Gypsy bachelorette parties are all about fun, but in moderation. The focus of the attention is the bride-to-be’s dress, which should be the second most extraordinary outfit she will wear in her life (after her wedding dress).

On weddings or other special events, all members of the family participate in the celebration, traveling from around the world to get there. Gypsy parties often have hundreds or thousands of guests.

Gypsies usually marry in their teens, with their parents arranging most matches.

Getting Engaged On Valentine’s Day? Don’t Be Blinded By The Bling—Get Insurance For Your Ring

I.I.I. Urges Lovers to “Put a Policy on it”; Offers Tips for Financially Protecting Expensive Jewelry


NEW YORK, Feb. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — There’s nothing more romantic than a marriage proposal on Valentine’s Day. But with a great engagement ring comes great responsibility… While there is no way to insure the sentimental value of such a gift, having the right insurance coverage will provide financial protection, according to the Insurance Information Institute (I.I.I.).

“The word ‘insurance’ is not likely to be the first word on many lovers’ lips this Valentine’s Day. However, if an expensive gift of jewelry is lost or stolen it can certainly soothe the sting of losing a cherished gift,” said Jeanne M. Salvatore, the I.I.I.’s chief communications officer. “Your first step after receiving a valuable engagement ring—well, maybe your second after saying yes!—should be to call your insurance professional.”

Jewelry losses are among the most frequent of all homeowners content related insurance claims. Fortunately, there are four steps to ensure adequate protection for your new ring:

1. Contact your insurance professional immediately.
Find out whether you will need additional insurance. Most standard homeowners and renters insurance policies include coverage for personal items such as jewelry; however, many policies limit the dollar amount on jewelry to $1,000 to $2,000. With the average engagement ring costing nearly $6,000, according to The Knot, that is unlikely to be enough coverage for your new bauble.

To properly insure jewelry, consider purchasing a floater or an endorsement policy. In most cases, these add-ons to a homeowners or renters policy would also cover you for “mysterious disappearance.” This means that if your ring falls off your finger and is flushed down a drain, or is lost, you would be financially protected. And unlike a homeowners policy, floaters and endorsements carry no deductibles, so there is no out-of-pocket expense to replace the item.

2. Obtain a copy of the store receipt.
Forward a copy of the receipt to your insurer—so that your company has a record of the current retail value of the ring—and keep a copy for your own records. It’s also a good idea to get a copy of the appraised value of the item.

3. If you received an heirloom piece, have it appraised.
Antique jewelry will need to be appraised for its dollar value. You can ask your insurance professional to recommend a reputable appraiser.

4. Add the item to your home inventory.
An up-to-date inventory of your personal possessions can help you purchase the correct amount of insurance and speed up the claims process if you have a loss, so remember to add your new ring to your inventory. And if you don’t yet have an inventory, celebrate your engagement by creating one with your fiancée. To make creating a home inventory as easy as possible, the I.I.I. offers a free inventory tool: Know Your Stuff®.

Renters Insurance
Finally, if you don’t think you need renters insurance, think again. A 2014 Insurance Information Institute poll found that 96 percent of homeowners had homeowners insurance but only 37 percent of renters had renters insurance. If you rent your home, renters insurance can provide important financial protection in the event your belongings are stolen or destroyed.

“In my many conversations with consumers, personal finance bloggers and insurance educators they have noted that the purchase of an engagement ring often triggers interest in getting a renters insurance policy for the first time, as many (especially young) people start to think more seriously about financially protecting themselves,” said Salvatore.
