    The rules about maximum numbers allowed and the parameters of social distancing have all been stated clearly in the original SoE and all the subsequent municipal and provincial governor's edicts. A crowd is a crowd is a crowd, regardless of the selfless philanthropy that allegedly caused it.

    I was referring to special arrangements you must apply if you are giving out aid - as in the OP - informing authorities so they can assist in enforcing the rules (their responsibility)

    He urged charities and individuals to tell the authorities about handouts so that they can help to ensure that social distancing is carried out and the events do not contribute to the spread of coronavirus.

    Nothing was mentioned in the order done on the the 7th that has now being extended until July 31st about those on extension of stay expiring while out of the the country. Nothing has changed due the embergency. If you cannot be here to apply for the extension it is lost that is how it has always been.

    and my point being - it doesn't really matter as the person has already completed the biggest part of "starting again" by the fact they left and re-entered so it really is no biggie - not much really changes except one extra step - getting the type O conversion at immigration

     

    so in reality it matters little

    If a one year extension of stay expires while a person is out of the country they will have to start all over again by getting a new non immigrant visa entry. The extension and its re-entry permit will be expired when they enter the country.

    I didn't get that from the original order but hey I'm not going to start a whole debate over it as it matters very little to anyone affected - they can easily convert their "new" entry to a type O in country as they had already left and re-entered so no issue really

    The issue of last entry is nonsense because if that was the limitation then in-person 90-day report would not be possible.

     

    I do not believe there are separate databases.

     

    I further believe that IB officials have no direct knowledge of how the software works and glibly perpetuate IB false propaganda because it is less work to deny a problem than to acknowledge and fix a problem.

    speculation my friend - as nobody really knows the setup - we know that it didn't work and now it does ????

     

    The fact that Joe's entry was way before 2014 is very likely "now" the reason he cannot do online reports and nothing to do with new passport   

     

    Time to move on with this - the message is out thanks to you, new passport holders can now do 90 day online reports without having to leave and re-enter the country

    Agree with social distancing issue. But, police get involved? Xenophobia towards the migrants? Ridiculous way to approach this hunger problem.

    That's not what I took from the OP

     

    with proper controls in place provided by the authorities (as it is their responsibility) this is how it should be 

     

    One question though, why are these people not wearing masks ?, are they unaware of the rules or is it a supply issue, either way the local authorities need to address the issue
