DEERFIELD BEACH, FL, February 17, 2011 (Press-News.org) Federated Financial is announcing the purchase of www.DebtPlan.org. DebtPlan.org is a "debt lead" producing site that offers an informational blog. DebtPlan.org has been online almost ten years and it ranks well for many relevant search terms. DebtPlan.org and other websites are a key marketing tool designed to reach out to debt-ridden consumers.

Federated Financial was established in 1997. Their goal was to teach consumers how to understand and manage their debt so that they can achieve and maintain financial security. Federated Financial was among the first agencies in the United States to obtain ISO 9001 registration. ISO, or International Standard Organization, is an association recognized worldwide for its required implementation of a Quality Management System (QMS).

Federated purchased DebtPlan.org as part of a move to extend their credit counseling operation, and to reach out and assist more consumers before their debt problems become unmanageable. Consumers may reach Federated Financial on DebtPlan.org via a toll free number or contact form on the site.

President of Federated Financial claims, "Our free community outreach programs, which include public seminars, walk-in clinics, newsletters, and on-line materials, give all of our visitors the ability to understand how credit works, how to overcome financial obstacles, and how to achieve important economic goals. The acquisition of DebtPlan.org will help expand our outreach and meet are marketing goals."

Federated Financial is concerned about how high unemployment rates and slow economic growth have harmed consumers with significant credit card debt exposure. It is their hope that many can avoid filing bankruptcy and get the help they need. DebtPlan.org will put more of these individuals in touch with a credit counselor that can explain some options. Credit counseling is not the best solution for every consumer, but for many, it can make a world of difference.

Florida Ranks Second Nationally in Pedestrian Deaths

2011-02-17

Issa Bill Seeks to Fill U.S. Gap in High-Tech Job Readiness

2011-02-17
Representative Darrell Issa (R-CA) is once again proposing legislation that would put as many as 55,000 foreign-born students in graduate school programs around the country on the road to a green card. Issa's "Advanced Degree Visa Bill" proposal is designed to, in his own words, "get smart folks into our high-tech economy." The proposed law acknowledges the relatively small number of American-born students pursuing advanced degrees in math, science, engineering and medicine. The promise of a green card is used as an incentive to foreign-born students to remain in the ...

2011-02-17
This article discusses an unpleasant subject for most people, taxes. As the old saying goes, there are only two things that are certain in life, death and taxes.

The short answer is, maybe. Most people we talk to here in Phoenix, Arizona believe that taxes cannot be dealt with in a bankruptcy. As discussed below, this is not entirely the case. Most of you are familiar with income taxes. In a bankruptcy, ...

The American Student (F1) Visa Program

2011-02-17
Students around the world who are seeking higher education may be able to study in America by applying for an F1 student visa. The F1 visa is what is known as a "non-immigrant" visa. This type of visa is designed to meet the needs of people who are temporarily visiting the U.S. but do not intend to become permanent residents. The requirements for student visas are not as rigorous as those for employment-based visas or family visas, but it is still necessary to meet every one of them before a visa application will be granted. Eligibility for a student visa consists of: - ...

Concussions Finally Getting Attention They Deserve

2011-02-17

Employment-Based Visas: An Overview

2011-02-17
American companies sometimes have trouble filling highly specialized positions. Though they may look far and wide for a suitable candidate, it might seem impossible to find a qualified worker. Thankfully, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) -- through its employment-based visa program -- allows companies to expand their search beyond America's shores and literally find the most qualified person in the world to fill their open positions. Employment-based visas are divided into six categories: EB1, EB2, EB3, EB4, EB5 and Schedule A. EB1 Visas EB1 ...

San Francisco First in Pedestrian Accidents: 800 Hit Each Year

2011-02-17
It's common knowledge that the Bay Area is a particularly dangerous place to drive or cycle. In fact, it has more motor vehicle accident injuries per-mile-driven than any other sizeable city in California, as stated by the Office of Traffic Safety. Unfortunately, the danger does not stop there: San Francisco may be the most dangerous place in the U.S. for pedestrians. On a typical day, two pedestrians are hit by motorists in San Francisco. When a pedestrian is hit by a car they may be lucky to only receive a few bumps or bruises, but most are not that fortunate. Tragically, ...
