Toyota Recalls Corolla Sedans and Matrix Hatchbacks
Recent Cases
The popularity of Toyota took another blow last week as the company announced another in what seems to be a regular series of recalls.
Apparently there have been issues with stalling engines in the 2005 through 2008 Matrix Hatchbacks and Corolla Sedans. This particular recall encompasses over one million cars sold in the United States and Canada.
The repercussions of the ongoing recalls can be clearly seen in the value of the stock for Toyota, and a widespread wave of negative feedback from Toyota owners. Sales of Toyota vehicles have dropped considerably this year on a nationwide level.
If you own one of these models, Toyota has announced that you will be receiving a notification of the recall sometime during the month of September. If you do not receive a notification, visit the dealership that sold you the car for further action.

USCIS Will Begin Accepting CW-1 Petitions for Fiscal Year 2019
On April 2, 2018, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will begin accepting petitions under the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI)-Only Transitional Worker (CW-1) program subject to the fiscal year (FY) 2019 cap. Employers in the CNMI use the CW-1 program to employ foreign workers who are ineligible for other nonimmigrant worker categories. The cap for CW-1 visas for FY 2019 is 4,999.
For the FY 2019 cap, USCIS encourages employers to file a petition for a CW-1 nonimmigrant worker up to six months in advance of the proposed start date of employment and as early as possible within that timeframe. USCIS will reject a petition if it is filed more than six months in advance. An extension petition may request a start date of Oct. 1, 2018, even if that worker’s current status will not expire by that date.
Since USCIS expects to receive more petitions than the number of CW-1 visas available for FY 2019, USCIS may conduct a lottery to randomly select petitions and associated beneficiaries so that the cap is not exceeded. The lottery would give employers the fairest opportunity to request workers, particularly with the possibility of mail delays from the CNMI.
USCIS will count the total number of beneficiaries in the petitions received after 10 business days to determine if a lottery is needed. If the cap is met after those initial 10 days, a lottery may still need to be conducted with only the petitions received on the last day before the cap was met. USCIS will announce when the cap is met and whether a lottery has been conducted.
