                     Update on CSPA Approval
                     =======================

    Today, Shi Heping, IFCSS V.P., called INS Headquarters and
obtained the following update information:

          Applications Received         Applications Approved
N. Center      11,531                        7,738
W. Center      10,509                        1,272
E. Center      22,456                       10,811
S. Center       8,156                        6,920

     The service centers have been working overtime and at
weekends. INS is optimistic about using up the 45,000 numbers by
the end of this month.

     From February when we first met with INS, we have been trying
every way possible to ensure that we will be able to use up the
45,000 numbers. We will continue to monitor the situation closely
until the last eligible person has got his application approved.
Meanwhile, we wish to emphasize that it is not our ultimate goal to
get green cards; IFCSS has a long way to go in protecting your
interests and promoting human rights in China. It is your duty to
continue to support the organization. If you want to make a
donation to IFCSS, you can send it to the familiar address. You are
also encouraged to contribute to IFCSS June 4th Foundation. If each
of us donates $10 to the foundation, we will have over $400,000 for
the victims of the June 4th. Remember some have been permanently
disabled and many have been sentenced to as long as 20 years.
Imagine what a life they would be living without our help. You can
make a difference.
