Letter of objection to Immigration Department's denial of an employment visa extension of stay for Ms. Christine Vertucci

Dear Sir Philip Haddon-Cave:

1.

I am Christine Vertucci, an American citizen who is holding

U.S. Passport No. H2424992. I have been employed with the Asia

Monitor Resource Center, a registered business in Hong Kong (see

Appendix A and Appendix B for a brief description of the Asia

Monitor Resource Center) since January 23, 1978. I am a lawyer by

training, and I am a member of the State Bar of California, U.S.A.

2.

On December 18, 1981, I applied for an extension of stay

for employment. On January 22, 1982, the day before my employment

visa was to expire, I was informed by the Hong Kong Immigration

Department that my application for extension of stay had been

refused, and that I must leave Hong Kong by February 5, 1982. No

reasons were given for this decision. Therefore, under Section

53 of the Immigration Ordinance, 1980, I am raising objections to

this decision for the following reasons.

3.

In 1977, I received a letter of invitation for employment

with the Asia Monitor Resource Center (hereinafter referred to as

the Center) from Mr. Thomas P. Fenton and Ms. Mary J. Heffron,

the former partners of the Center. On October 5, 1977, I applied

for an employment visa and my sponsors stipulated on my applica-

(more)

350.
