[Federal Register Volume 64, Number 148 (Tuesday, August 3, 1999)] [Notices] [Page 42146] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 99-19849] [[Page 42146]] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE Executive Office for Immigration Review [AG Order No. 2234-99] RIN 1125-AA23 Motion to Reopen: Suspension of Deportation and Cancellation of Removal; Correction AGENCY: Executive Office for Immigration Review, Justice. ACTION: Notice; correction. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: This document corrects the notice published in the Federal Register on July 26, 1999 relating to certain aliens who filed an abbreviated motion to reopen their cases, on or before September 11, 1998, in order to apply for benefits under section 203(c) of the Nicaraguan Adjustment and Central American Relief Act (NACARA). A deadline to complete the motion to reopen has been set. The 150-day period for the submission of an application of suspension of deportation or cancellation of removal began June 21, 1999, and ends 150 days later, on November 18, 1999. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For matters relating to the Executive Office for Immigration Review--Charles Adkins-Blanch, Acting General Counsel, Executive Office for Immigration Review, Suite 2400, 5107 Leesburg Pike, Falls Church, Virginia 22041, telephone (703) 305-0470. For matters relating to the Immigration and Naturalization Service-- Mary Giovagnoli, Associate General Counsel, Immigration and Naturalization Service, 425 I Street, NW, Washington, DC 20536, telephone (202) 514-2895. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background The notice of July 26, 1999 (64 FR 40389-40390) applied to those aliens who filed an abbreviated NACARA motion to reopen by September 11, 1998, as provided in 63 FR 31890 (June 11, 1998). The notice was issued to clarify the deadline to submit an application for suspension of deportation or special rule cancellation of removal and supporting documentation to complete a NACARA motion to reopen. Initially, the Department established a February 8, 1999, deadline for eligible aliens to submit the application for suspension of deportation or special rule cancellation of removal and all the accompanying documentation in support of the NACARA motion to reopen. See 63 FR 31890, 31895 (June 11, 1998). In the final NACARA motion to reopen rule, the Department extended the deadline to complete a NACARA motion to reopen to 150 days after the rule implementing section 203 of NACARA becomes effective. See 64 FR 13663 (March 22, 1999). The rule implementing section 203 of NACARA was published on May 21, 1999, and the effective date was June 21, 1999. The July 26, 1999 notice alerted those eligible aliens that the 150-day period to complete the NACARA motion to reopen had started to run. Need for Correction As published in the Federal Register on July 26, 1999 (64 FR 40389), the notice concerning submission of certain motions to reopen pertaining to suspension of deportation and cancellation of removal inadvertently did not calculate the actual ending date for submission of those motions. Correction of Publication Accordingly, the publication on July 26, 1999 (64 FR 40389) of the notice that was the subject of FR Doc. 99-18930 is corrected as follows: 1. On page 40389, column 3, in the SUMMARY, beginning three lines from the bottom, remove the parenthetical phrase and add ``November 18, 1999'' in its place. 2. On page 40389, column 3, under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT, five lines from the bottom, correct the spelling of Mary Giovagnoli's name by removing ``Giovagnolia'' and adding in its place ``Giovagnoli''. 3. On page 40390, in the first column, under the heading ``When Is the Deadline to Complete a NACARA Motion To Reopen'', beginning three lines from the bottom, remove the parenthetical phrase and add ``November 18, 1999'' in its place. Dated: July 29, 1999. Rosemary Hart, Federal Register Liaison Officer. [FR Doc. 99-19849 Filed 8-2-99; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4410-10-M
