The only reason why the House hasn't given in on CIRA is because of the incessant pressure of restrictionists such as NUmbersUSA activists. Look at how active they are. Granted one has to be a Citizen to vote, but the first amendment gives us ALL the right to free speech and express ourselves. That is why IV is legal, and that is why the least we can do is a webfax campaign regarding Skilled Immigration (SKIL bill) AND show up at local meetings with Congressman.
Believe me, if we don't speak up, no one is going to do it for us. People like me with 02 priority dates are going to wait atleast two more years, folks who filed in 05 may get to wait 5+ years for their GC. This is the way things look currently.
The Illegals like the Chamber of Commerce, the big lobby Ag, Hotel/Travel, Construction, Meat-Packing, Industries, the Catholic Church and big ethic lobbies like MALDEF, La Raza, besides millions of hispanic votes.
The other side also has the power of millions of votes and a LOUD VOICE.
We have nothing compared to them. You can see we are small fish...that is why we need to do all we can to make ourselves heard.

Please take some actions today .... and prepare for many more actions next week
DEAR SUPPORTERS OF LOWER OVERALL IMMIGRATION,
Thanks to all of you who -- in the two weeks since the Senate voted for a massive immigration increase and amnesty -- have been regularly checking your Action Buffet for new actions and who have been responding to the several Fax Alerts that we have sent you.
Now, it is time to really start turning up the heat again.
I'm asking each one of you to do at least one of the following TODAY.
Members of Congress are feeling great pressure from our side, but we must really escalate that pressure if we are to totally block all the immigration increases in the Senate bill. Thus far, the Republican majority in the House of Representatives has stood firm against the national Republican Party leaders and President Bush. We have a lot of hope that the House can hold the line against the amnesty/open borders plan of President Bush, the Republican National Committee and nearly all Senate Democrats. BUT IT WILL HAPPEN ONLY IF ALL OF YOU DO WHAT YOU DID IN APRIL AND MAY.
There are a lot more of YOU than there used to be.
Last Saturday, our Activist Membership crossed the 200,000 mark! That means we have almost 100,000 more of you working together in this cause than we had last December when we pressured for toughening amendments to the House-passed H.R. 4437.
Action No. 1: Send all the faxes that have accumulated on your Action Buffet corkboard.
We can tell from the number of faxes that have been ordered over the last two weeks that many of you have taken a much-deserved break from activism and not been sending the new faxes we have posted on your customized corkboard.
Please go now to:
www.NumbersUSA.com/actionbuffet
Action No. 2: Tell us when and where your Senators and Representative are holding town hall meetings
You should see a thumb-tacked note on your corkboard asking for this information. When you click on the note, you will go to a page that will give you good instructions for how to track down this information.
There is no central place to find out when and where Members of Congress expose themselves to the voters. In fact, they try to keep it as secret as possible because they don't really want to have to hear directly from you.
That is why the town hall meeting part of our Action Buffet is so very important.
NumbersUSA doesn't have the staff to dig out potential meetings of all 535 Members of Congress. We MUST rely on you to send us that info on your own Members so we can share with everybody else from your state and District.
Click on corkboard note to send us town hall meeting information
Action No. 3: Attend any meeting or event where your Senators or Representative are expected to appear
Nothing you do will be as powerful as attending in person one of the events where your Members of Congress appears, and then asking a question or making a statement about immigration -- or even holding up a sign giving your view on immigration -- or applauding another voter who expresses your opinion on immigration.
You all have become great faxers and phoners. But we must have many, many more of you personally confronting the Members of Congress -- especially the ones who have Immigration Grades ranging from F-minus to B.
See your Members' immigration grades at:
www.CongressGrades.org
If you see a thumb-tacked note on your corkboard that announces a meeting of one of your Members of Congress, PLEASE LOOK AT IT -- and make plans to attend.
Get some friends to go with you to ensure that you will have a cheering section.
And be sure to use the feedback devices on our page that allow you to easily let us know you are planning to attend and to give us a report when you return.
Action No. 4: Call some friends or let us know that you plan to visit the local office of your Representative or one of your Senators next week
These Members of Congress must have voters in their local offices putting the pressure on their staffs to block the Senate amnesty and immigration increases.
If you are interested in doing this but don't want to go alone, send us an email through our Help Desk form and we will put you in touch with other people in your area who are trying to make a trip.
PLEASE NOTE: We have a new way of your communicating to us in which you cannot just hit REPLY to our Alerts anymore.
We are not trying to make things difficult for you. But with 200,000 members, our staff simply has not been able to keep up with your emails. We have hired two interns for the summer to help Jon and Jeremy. But we also must create a better system of categories if we are to provide the level of service we once did.
So, you should always communicate with us by:
(a) clicking on the CONTACT US link in the navigation bar at the top of our web pages. That takes you to the HELP FORM link.
(b) or putting this address in your directory and regularly using it:
www.numbersusa.com/helpform
On the Help Form page, you choose the category in which you are writing and send us an email that way.
Thousands of people have already started using this form in the last month, and it is accelerating our ability to respond.
======================================
Thanks for jumping into this TODAY before you move into your weekend family and recreation activities.
Then, please, plan to do something Monday and during the rest of the week.
We will be sending you additional guidance on how best to stop the amnesty -- or at least keep it from passing this month. The longer we can delay this, the better our chances are of winning.
Thank you,
-- ROY

My friends took a vacation is US VI and they have full inspections there.YOu better have your documents with you in person

Traveling Back to Puerto Rico and the Continental United States
Due to the location of the territory, the United States Virgin Islands has a pre-clearance inspection process for all flights from the territory to destinations in Puerto Rico or the Continental United States.

As far as I know INS cannot look into somebody's tax records without the individual's consent. I am not sure this is even a genuine post.
And of course IRS is happy take your taxes, they don't care about the immigration status.

Funny that this lawyer is Ok with transferring H-1b, but does not want to accept an EAD. .
It's obvious. This lawyer wants to make money for applying H1-b (transfer ~ $5000 typically). If you use EAD he gets zilch.:D:D:D:D:D:D

I disagree with fee reduction. In fact I believe they should increase it and give poorer service as they always did.
AND visa/EAD terms should be reduced to 3-6 six months so that people renew more often.
Also how abt increasing the SS deductions on H1B/L1 guys? They dont need to give that back anyways. Most people even if they get GC/CITIZENSHIP will not live for more than 67?
In fact above idea will bring US out of recession.

I applied for the I-485 with a notice date of July 3, 2007 (application mailed in June) and paid $180 for the EAD that has a notice date of 07 November 2007 (was not filed concurrently). Do I have to pay the $340 fees to renew it? I went through the instructions and they are confusing as they say I don't need to pay the fees if I file I-485 before July 30, 2007. At another place they say no fees if filed under the fee structure IMPLEMENTED on July 30, 2007. I went through the electronic filing and they don't even ask for the date of I-485 filing, just charge you the $340. Any advice?

We should definitely support this bill. It will help reduce the EB backlog for us considerably. There are two provisions in this bill which if passed would help reduce the backlog a lot.
a) Exempt spouses and minor children of the principal applicant from employment-based immigrant visa quotas. At least half the backlog is due to dependents of the applicant using GC visas and this should reduce the backlog considerably.
b)� Exempt STEM advanced degree graduates who have 3 years of U.S. work experience as a non-immigrant from the numerical limit on employment-based immigrant visas, in addition to those who are deemed to have extraordinary ability, are outstanding professors and researchers, and whose presence is determined to be in the national interest of the United States. Another 20% of the applicants specially with indian passports would fit this category and hence thought would reduce the backlog significantly as well.
c) The most important thing about this Bill is that it offers some relief entirely for the skilled employees without associating them with the fate of illegals. There is very little controversial elements in this Bill. Remember the main bone of contention between Democrats & Republicans in CIR is about the fate of illegal immigrants and how tough an approach they should have on them. This might easily scuttle CIR this year and we might have to wait till 2009 before anything else comes up again. There is not much that the parties disagree on with regards to Hightech skilled workers and a bill such as this which offers interim relief has much better chance of being passed. Agreed some groups such as IEEE-US might oppose it (specially the provisions related H1B increase) but even IEEE-US does support sorting out the EB GC issues and backlogs and might support those provisions on this Bill.
In conclusion IV should definitely support this Bill.
S.1092
Title: A bill to temporarily increase the number of visas which may be issued to certain highly skilled workers.

Regarding your 1st issue...My lawyer advised me to attach the scan copy with 485, but definately have the originals in hand in case there is a RFE.
I don't want to take a chance, so Iam asking my parents to send it through 2nd day fedex as well. It will cost me maybe another Rs 2-3000, but what the hell..
Hello All,
I am from India and I am getting ready to file my 485 in 1st week of July. I have an approved 140.
I have two issues I am not sure about how to procced --
1. My wife's name is wrong in her birth certificate. also, my mother's name is not present in my birth certificate. I am getting both of our parents to execute affidavits. Do these affidavits need to be originals when I submit them with my 485 appln? Or my folks in India can scan them and email me and I can submit copies with my 485 appln?
2. My passport is expiring in Oct 2007. Some people have mentioned that your passport needs to be valid for six months at the time you file for your 485 appln. Is this true? I have not found a definitive answer anywhere.
Please let me know if you know anything about these questions. Appreciate all your responses.
Thanks.

Hi
According to my experience it doesnt make a difference whom you contact. I would suggest contact all (both senators of your state and local congressperson). It has no negative bearing on your case. I would also suggest
that you contact the ombudsman. You never know whats going to click in the end.

Thanks for the response.
So you are asking me to first threaten him by saying that I would take this matter to DOL if he does not refund me back. If matter gets really worse then and only then should I lodge a complaint against his firm? Am I right? If I have to complain, what is the procedure. I am just nervous. Please guide me.
And by the way how much do you think out of $1800,can I ask him to refund? And to just bring to your notice, he is saying this after 1 year. I can even ask him to pay me the interest for 1 year that he's enjoyed on my hard earned money. Right?
How do you think threating him would stand me a good chance to get my money back. It might even backfire by him not paying me anything (Right now he is ready to pay me something out of $1800 by talking to his finance dept.) and challenging me to the court. I am in India from last october and will be in India till coming October. I cannot agree to his terms of going to the court and all that stuff. And at the same time it should not impact my other H1 petition on which I already have VISA.
Sorry to put forth so many conditions before you. But I just want to be cautious and work out all pros and cons in my mind before executing it.
Your help & advice greatly appreciated.

This is ridiculous. Lots of stress for most guys and even bad for members you had their vacation cut short and returned to US for applying AOS. At least I know one friend who had his family return from India. Only thing is we all have the required documents ready to go and the medical is valid for a year, and if and (IF) the date�s moves forward in October, we can still use the same.
Anyway, we got to deal with this and use this opportunity to educate people on this and may be we need to start a fax campaign and send to congress and the government agencies and emphasize on the necessity to recapture the unused visa from past and find a way to be able to apply for I-485 while the visa numbers are not available, which could be the only option that would alleviate many issues for the members stuck in retrogression. This is not happend with any intervention from Congress, which requires lots of lobbying and money.
Hope we at IV can do something and get some assit from competeamerica, etc... to do something about this.

Thanks Krupa for your reply.
Could any one please clarify on below points.I hope this posting will also help other new members who got their EAD
1.Can I take an offer with a consulting firm for suppose 3 months con_w2 ?This firms will give me offer letter stating that I will work with them for only 3 months.I cannot file AC 21 since it is temporary employment.In my case since my original employer is intended to hire me permanently once GC is approved and supporting the GC process for this RFE Can I take this contract employment with out filing AC 21? As such I don't see any point in filing AC 21 in my case even if I find full time employment with the end client since my original employer is ready to hire me once GC is approved as GC is for future employment.Please clarify me on this.
2.I'm trying to avoid AC 21 as the job title and duties should be same or similar.In my case my LCA says that job title: Software Engineer Job duties says I work as Oracle CRM Functional. salary $90k
As per my expertise: I can work in Oracle apps manufacturing,Finance,supply chain,CRM,
Business Analyst:Finance,Health care,ERP,Insurance
QA Analyst: Functional QA (ERP or any other applications)
SAP QA,People soft QA,Oracle apps QA etc
All the above jobs are paid average $110k(Minimum 90k)
My question is suppose If I take a job as a QA Engineer to test an ERP product.Then definitely it will not fall in my LCA job title or duties.But to perform this job definitely I need to have strong ERP Back ground.It will become very hard to prove since my LCA duties says I work as Oracle CRM Functional(only one particular domain).So to avoid trouble I just want to respond this RFE with my original employer offer letter stating he is still intended to hire me once GC is approved.So that I can work in the above stated areas with different firms.Please clarify me on this
3.I heard so many people are receiving the RFE on I 485.Is it normal practice or USCIS is trying to adjudicate as many cases as possible by the end of september.Any guess?
Thanks for reading my post.Any inputs will be appreciated
Thanks

Since the time I have been here, each year I have seen my juniors/friends come to U.S. on h1b visa/F1 visa/h4 visa., pretty excited and having a rosy picture of their future, completely unaware of the mess that we are in. This reminds me of the time when I came here few years ago, absolutely unaware of the green card backlog and the filing process. If I knew then what I know now, my life would have been completely different. Each year, thousands of Indians enter US on h1b/F1 visa, each(or atleast most) of them hoping to have a smooth transition to green card, ignorant of the terms " labor" "PD" "Retrogression" etc. when they do realize the meaning of these terms and their impact on our lives, they get a rude shock. It is unfortunate that people with PD of 2002 (in EB 3 india) are still waiting for their GC 8 long years after applying for it!!Imagine the plight of the youngsters entering U.S. now,who will apply for GC under EB 3 say in 2011 or 2012. Would it be a 25 year wait for them and are they ready for it?
I think when I came I was just worried only about my F-1. Though I later on get H1 and GC.
I think WE CAME ON NON-IMMIGRANT VISA (F1/H1/J1/L1 etc.) and WE WERE EXACTLY KNOWING OUR RIGHTS AS NON-IMMIGRANT VISA APPLICANT TO THIS COUNTRY.
I Dont think there are much issues in maintaining our NON-Immigrant visa (except you want to play the system with consultant jobs etc.)
IF WE CHANGE MIND AFTER COMING HERE(and decide to stay PERMENENTLY, totallly differnt from our ORIGINAL OBJECTIVE OF COMING HERE)that should be OUR problem.
But while coming here we were exactly knowing we are coming here JUST TO STUDY OR TO WORK. I think if you are arguing against this prior knowldge you are fooling your self.
IF SOME ONE WANT TO COME HERE TO JUST BECOME PERMANENT RESIDENT HE SHOULD COME ON GC ONLY (not on F1/j1/h1/l1)

Why dont we start an entrepreneur thread here on IV. I know it does not go in line with IV's goals, I can set up a forum real quick and we can get a group going there.
Sounds like a good idea to me. As far as I know, there are a lot of IV members showing interest in this topic.

I would assume that it is already decided with the exception that a visa number is not available. So a final judgement is pending availability of visa numbers.
This is a good sign...I think :D

As per the information that I have http://www.wynnandwynn.com/biography/miller.html
is the reasonable attorney. I have contacted him about the AC21 and looks good to me. He wants me to send all the necessary documents for further review. I am planning to invoke my AC21 in the month of august where my current and new job falls under similar criteria.
Friends please share the information about any other good immigration attorneys in Boston Area.
Thanks
Can somebody suggest a good immigration lawyer in the Boston Area. Need to consult for AC21, transfer employer, transfer existing case from present employer etc.

keeping everything else aside
it is likely to be easier to get a residency on ead- choice will be wider
you have to consider though if it matches "job description"
you may not be the primary applicant though, on derivative ead- it's perfect

As far as i know medicals are valid for 2 1/2 years.
Answer to your next question is, there could be many possibilities.
1. USCIS might have lost your original 693
2. There could be something which is not clear in the original 693 etc
Don't worry much. Just give them what they asked.
Its good that they opened your file.
