    Should we do call the sponsor of this act? The dream act supporters list the senators that are on the fence, and urge them to call and I think we need to start call the main players like Reid, Schumer, Menendez to get them behind our provisions. Calling Durbin is probably will not work but we never know, thanks

    You can not really change point based system and u can not ask for that..they are the policy makers..they are responsible for there own country.

    We should only ask

    - Clear the backlog for EB people as FB without country quota
    - Allow all backlogged people to continue on old system (h1b renewal/3 year extension until date of enactment.


    If all backlogged is cleared then for merit based people..

    - There is no LC or PERM..u can file adjsutment of status just as canada or Australia. ur PD will be current as backlogged is being cleared.You can continue to enjoy AC-21 after I-485.
    - You don't need H1b renewal 1 year or 3 year..


    "FOUCS ON CLEAR THE BACKLOG FOR ALL PEOPLE WHO ARE PENDING AS OR BEFORE ENACT THE LAW"

    in BTW i called the senators.

    Abq_gc,

    I agree with you on the fact that this is extremely frustrating. Believe me I can feel your pain. However all I am saying is, put your faith in the IV core for a more long term solution, where ALL EB categories benefit. This is a **NOT** a quick strike mission as we have seen for the past 4 years or more. The system is HORRIBLY broken. You cant try and put a bandaid on a foot long laceration. I am sure the idea of a quick fix appeals to a lot of people and I dont blame them either. Everyone on here wants to get their GC and get this mess over with.

    I have full faith in the IV core and I know they are working on it as we speak... but Eb3_Nepa we cannot let our guard down against USCIS and I know very well that this is a long term mission.. but we can still do some quick strikes and weaken the enemy before the kill... or would u rather just wait another 3-4 years before the final kill ??
    ( playing too much of the RTS games because of the apparent frustration ..)

    Anyways.. I am with the core and will always support whatever they do, because it will be good for the community as a whole.

    All I am suggesting is to be on their heels.. just like my #$%^&* manager.. to get the work done

    Totally agree with you dude, is IV doing anything about this issue?

    Dont bark at not donating, will donate if this issue is given serious consideration as well.

    Getting sick of this movement in dates.

    Illegal guy in US makes more money & without any hassle.

    Trying to stay legally hurts very much for the past 9 years.

    Atleast they should allow to pre-file I-485 so that atleast guys like me (when we missed july 2007 race) can just file and complete the verification process in I-485.

    Employer can revoke I-140 anytime until I-485 is approved. After 180 calendar days of I-485 filing date, employee can continue I-485 seeking AC-21 protection . Employee must have open permanent job offer from another employer. The new job must be same or similar.

    >> complaining against me to INS if i try to leave before getting the actual GC.
    LoL. He is not even aware of the law. Employee is required join AFTER getting the green card, not before.

    Not a legal advice.

    Curious Techie..Core is you and me and dont post such things..but for the core EB-2 would not have been in a postion that it is today..they worked to get this done...you can request them in thier next meeting to bring this issue with USCIS\

    You are turning a blind eye to his family, while also asking him to spend time with his family. You ask him to spend what he can on his treatment, while his insurance cover may go away if he quits his job and return to fiji/india.

    There is no easy answer here.

    But if he had his GC, he could spend all the time with his family, use his insurance cover at the same time, and not worry about his family going out of status.
    He COULD try to expedite the GC, while also exploring other options.

    Sorry for splitting things apart, Mehul. My best wishes are with you.

    hi all,

    Thanks a lot for all ur suggestions and support. As of now, nothing is moving on in my issue. The last correpondence with the employer was only when i sent mail asking for my money and got reply saying that they will contact their attorney to see what legal action they can take using non compete agreement. But till today, its calm and they are not replying to any of my mails or calls. I feel like its just a mail to scare me......took an appointment with attorney to discuss this and be geared up for action........

    I am also frustated with GC process. It is literally controlling my life...
    I don't want to go India because not sure whether I would get Visa or not. I don't want to join some prime vendor company because not sure whether they would start GC process immediately or not, and vendor could terminate the job immediately after contract expiration or any other issue. As everyone knows that desi employers are blood suckers and on top of it H1B extensions are very tough to get with them. I was almost on edge of leaving the country on my last extension.

    With desi employer, It looks to me that my career goal is only GC. I don't know when I get that and I am sure that my goals will be none after getting GC because I would be exhausted by then....

    A lot of people can give you advice but I think it really comes down to making peace with yourself.

    I have been thru the pain of being stuck in LC for over 4 years and I can completely sympathize with you. I know it can be really frustrating. I have been thru swings of optimisim and pessimism in those 4 years. Ultimately this is what I have realized, there is always a price to be paid in life if you want to achieve anything in life. It is upto each one of us to decide if GC is worth the various years of being stuck in same job, wife being stuck on H4 is the right price for GC or am I paying too much. For me personally, I think I am paying a big price but I am like a businessman who has invested so much money and time in his enterprise that he's afraid to drop the venture and start another business. Actually a lot of us fall in this category.

    So look at it this way. Write down the price you are paying. Figure out if you still want to put your effort (and how much) in trying to get a GC. If you think its a venture that's not worth the outcome, there's your answer! If you think its worth the outcome but you are afraid you still may not get a GC, work on backup plan i.e. evaluate and apply for immigration to other western countries or evaluate and work on a plan to go back to your home country. Knowing the price and having alternate plans will give you peace of minds. More than anything else don't forget to have fun. A lot of times we get caught up in worrying about what might/might not happen in future and don't enjoy the present! Go out with your wife and have a fancy dinner every now and then ... do something spontaneous... Watch movies, listen to music, go bowling with friends ... whatever takes your mind off the routine!


    I see a lot of guys telling everyone who is frustrated saying: Let your wife get her own H1, why don't you buy a house on H1, why don't you have kids? Well, its good to offer suggestions but don't get condescending. Not everyone is fortunate enough to have a stable job that they can buy a house. Not everyone's wife is in IT and can get a desi co. to sponsor H1. Not everyone is at peace mentally enough that they can plan children.

    Well, I am TOO depressed about the BEC performance. I know too many people are in same situation but I find myself "helpless" and at least i want to SCREAM......:mad:

    consultant does not consitute employer-employee relationship. This WILL NOT satisfy the full time permanant employment.

    Oh yeah. All big time consulting companies must lay off foreign workers then, myself included. My perm was filed as IT programmer, IT consultants job code. So am I not a full time employee of consulting company? Is USCIS fool to approve my I140? Not once but twice!

    My date will be current next month. But I got fingerprinting notice, and the appointment is on Sep 17th . Does that means will I have to wait until my FP is done to get the approval?. Please suggest me is there any way I can get my FP done prior to the scheduled date. This is my 2nd FP notice. First one was in Feb 2008.

    you should be able to do a walk-in finger printing on any day, they will make you wait a bit though.

    In that case, I *guess* you can show yourself as "permanently self-employed" for your own company--should be easy if you have an LLC that does business in "same or similar" occupation (e.g., consulting/PM). Should also be easy to state the *projected" yearly income on EVL.

    Problem with that argument once you own more than 5% of the company you will have file as investor. If your wife owns the company then you will have file under relative category. There were denials based on this.

    Nobody is holding them back and that is the very reason they are planning to go back... got it ?

    Your rant in the post of all things, especially about the caste system seems like the half baked knowledge of a westerner bloating and carrying the caste "issue" to stratospheric levels!

    I don't from what area in India exposed you to your experiences, but apart from the ridiculous reservations and quota system, there have been no caste related issues that I or my family faced while in western India. Be it working with people from all castes, making friends with them or really helping the neglected. This was the case with my neighbors or any relatives.

    Looking at the numerous corruption scandals and making a hoopla about it or relating it tightly to the ancient family values (that India has) that one can give to the children is quite narrow minded. For that matter I can make a big list of scandals in almost every country. There were numerous scandals in 80's and 90's in India - that didn't affect the kind of right values my parents imparted in my siblings or I. I can say the same for my several friends.

    Things are in constant flux in any country - while the divorce rate, teenage mothers, suicide rate was very low in the early 1900's in the US, it went up by orders of magnitude in the last 50 years. Teenage smoking was rampant in the 70's and 80's it went down dramatically after that.

    People wanted to free themselves from the rigid value system and hence the 1960's and 70's hippie movement - what did they do - drugs, sex and alcohol - didn't go anywhere (remnants of which we still see in the US "culture") ! They turned themselves to service, philanthropy and spirituality and found a new way of looking at things - great things have happened thro' the initiatives of these Americans.

    Having a static view of things is really claustrophobic and is a seed of frustration and negativity. Generalizing everything is even worse.

    To understand the culture of India, you need to scratch deeper and assimilate it.

    I couldn't have agreed with you more...When I meet people and they say Indian Culture is great, India is Gr8, the life here is boring and kind of nonsense I don't understand Y they are here of course for better life and money. Then Y keep on complaining about the things in life..no body is holding back others to stay here.

    I really don't understand what culture they talk about....

    @least here I don't need to bribe of simple things like getting my DL license, House registration, Going and meeting a senator, legislative. I don't need to explain to 10 people around my house if I go out and come home late night. These are just a few... I'm 100% sure I would not spend as much as time I spend with my family now excluding the weekends. I can't imagine going early in the morning at 7.00 and coming back home at 9.00 PM watch TV, eat and get to bed. On top of that go to work on weekends deal with relatives, neighbors, colleagues etc etc. Of course How can I forget the CASTE SYSTEM which is becoming as some people call the nation has developed. I cannot imagine my kids growing i the environment where CASTE SYSTEM is so prevalent.

    Well that is me and everybody have their own opinions. And good luck to all you want to move or stay.

    I am seeing lot of ads in Dice that only citizens are need to apply. If that is a racism many companies would have been in trouble. If you are really sure that they are violating law you can apply for those positions and sue them as affected person. You may get millions of dollars if court finds that there is a racism in selection. I think if they eliminate particular group in US citizens(If they eliminate Indian origin or Chinese origin Citizens inspite of similar skills ) then that is a racism.

    There have been quite a number of job positions restricting specific communities. This contradicts with the EEO. Its high time these are being highlighted...

    And that time does not have to be continous. You can do cycle of 6 months in Canada 1 year outside outside and it will still count to 2 years by end of 5 years, or you can do just last 2 years of those 5 years.

    Also issue of discrepancy of EB2-I and EB3-I is raised first time that is after Aug VB. But I think it will fade away after oct VB when normal processing starts as diff in PD between EB3 and EB2 will be 1 or 2 years and each category will have equal Visa numbers for 9 months.

    Also the issue of recapture was raised when in 2005 the dates were retrogressed . But I think the issue will fade away after 2014 when most of the categories will be either current or near current.


    PS; I am a strong proponent of recapture but such insensitive post to EB3 plight deserves such a response.

    There was and continues to be lot of discussion around multiple 485s. When USCIS is adjudicating a 485, they look at other pending 485s and cancel them. I had two 485s - 1 on EB3 and the other EB2. EB2 became current recently. They approved the EB2 one and rejected the EB3. So you can have multiple 485s.

    Is it still not clear for you? eb-dependents are NOT eligible for F2A.
    We have to follow the regulation when law is not clear and the regulation (CFR22) mentioned specifically that eb-dependents are eligble for EB-category. Regulations and interpretations are there for a reason, and it has to be followed when law is not clear.

    I agree that INA doesnt specifically says that, but at the same time INA specifically rules out eb-dependents from F2A also. To be eligible for F2A you should be dependent of a permanent resident "at the time of application".

    You should probably stream line your effort to not count eb-dependents in any visa-numbers (since neither the regulation or law is clear on that part).

    You are still under a mis-concept that every word and sentence has to be quoted in "INA", and can ignore all official regulations and interpretations.

    Guys,

    VISA BULLETIN FOR JUNE 2009 sets back EB2 priority back to 01JAN00.

    Some thing needs to be done. The easist will be not counting ebdependents in ebquota. This should be very easy. There is no INA law linking ebquota with ebdependents.

    I need IV Core help for this.

    Please be prepared for unanticipated actions in case of rallies

    Check this youtube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFdNkXJMH9A&mode=related&search=


    IV members - never lose control or temper - in a public rally. Be careful - remember, in this current scenerio we do not have much sympathy - if any official assualts us - more sympathy will be towards them.

    Please do a thorough research on how effective rallies are based on our situation. We do not have much political support - no government support, no public support - and not the least of sympathy though we contribute so much.

    In case of unanticipated actions - we may never know if politically we will have any help fro higher ups.

    Also - please check the numbers ( remember though a lot of people show enthusiasm in discussion forums, in reality you will find very less people taking part)

    So please do your homework and do a lot of discussion. Do not hurry up and rush into rallies. A lot of rallies are done by disciplined leaders who plan these well in advance.

    Please do some research.

    Once again - it is nice to see the zeal in all the members to do something. Please contribute to IV. Participate in media drive and update information. Help in all posible ways. Please contact core to discuss strategies.

    Keep up the spirit.

    On a practical note, if the company has sponsored H1Bs in the past, what justification can the company give for not filing another H1B ?

    Many reasons. Pick any one of you choice.
    1. Employer does not want file H-1B this year at all.
    2. Employer already has 15% workforce on H-1B and does not want to become H-1B dependent employer.
    3. This job is permanent and H-1B can be filed only for temporary jobs.
    H-1B Specialty (Professional) Workers (http://www.foreignlaborcert.doleta.gov/h-1b.cfm) The H-1B program allows an employer to temporarily employ a foreign worker in the U.S. on a nonimmigrant basis in a specialty occupation or as a fashion model of distinguished merit and ability.
    4. H-1B quota is over (if applicable) and employee is on F1 OPT.
    5. In past, many H1-B has been rejected by USCIS for this job position.
    6. The job does not qualify as specialty occupation under H-1B

    All of these reasons are valid legal reasons. One more time, valid legal reasons.


    Practically there are many ways a company can avoid hiring an H1B or GC if they want to. But the point is, as per law that is illegal.

    Are you suggesting the employer is required, by law, to file for H-1B sponsorship for the job applicant?

    Avoiding H-1B applicant is legal, whereas avoiding GC/EAD/OPT applicant isn't.

    For argument sake, assuming if H-1B applicant can force employer to file H-1B and he/she was not picked because of his/her H-1B visa status, he/she has legal route of filing case against that employer. In this was true, there will be many attorneys eager to file such cases. But, alas, there is not even one such case.

    Employer has choice of
    1. Filing or not filing H-1B
    2. Filing or not filing green card for the employee.

    These are employer's choices. Legal choices.

    GCStatus did not mention anything about Labor or I-140 fees here. Nor did he mention, he paid them.

    He refers to all the DOLLARS he has paid for , which means, all EAD and AP renewals ( For self and spouse) , Additional Lawyer fees incase of incorrect NOID, additional Bio-Metrics fees.

    Wait till you hear the actual Lawsuit. Long way to go. But your post helped us to clarify what we are talking about to rest of the folks like you, incase, they misinterpreted the information.

    Thanks to you.

    hi guyz,

    Here u go. The company name is 3i Infotech Inc. based in NJ.

    As far as I know this is a genuine company and not a typical small desi company.
    Did you sign some paper saying that you will reimburse the GC costs if you leave the company? If it was signed before the GC process started then it is not against the law that the company is holding back the $4K. This is a big company and I don't think the $4k matters to them much.

    As far as experience letter, they have to give it.

    Also, sometimes we get mad at the company even though its our own mistake. So, before filling anything with the labor department, make sure you have not signed the papers. By reporting them you are basically giving trouble to others who are in GC process through them.

    Seems that very few people have recieved anything who have filed between 4th and 16th aug.

    Looks like all the applications received till the Friday July 20th got transfered to either Texas or California. Good news is that checks are getting cleared this week. We should be getting receipt soon. Hang in there.

    EB3 Folks!

    This is pathetic ... And it's time for most of you to seriously think about converting to EB2. Now I have no idea how difficult or immpossible this would be, as I had always been EB2, but their are several threads on this forum that can assist you. I strongly suggest you to seriously start researching your way out of this mess. I wan't expecting EB2 to stay beyond 05, but it is going to be like that for another month. Are all the 2004 EB2-I applicants exhausted? ... I don't know, but I know EB3 just keeps on retrogressing.

    If this abyss continues, think about it ... you will always remain struck where you had been for past so many years. This is no life.

    Ask yourselves ... how can I convert to EB2. Take control!

    Thanks for the message. For my part, I will do what I can and hold no-one but myself responsible for the situation I am in :)

    Here's what the law says:

    8 CFR 204.5(e) relating to PD transfer between eb categories

    (e) Retention of section 203(b) (1), (2), or (3) priority date. A petition approved on behalf of an alien under sections 203(b) (1), (2), or (3) of the Act accords the alien the priority date of the approved petition for any subsequently filed petition for any classification under sections 203(b) (1), (2), or (3) of the Act for which the alien may qualify. In the event that the alien is the beneficiary of multiple petitions under sections 203(b) (1), (2), or (3) of the Act, the alien shall be entitled to the earliest priority date. A petition revoked under sections 204(e) or 205 of the Act will not confer a priority date, nor will any priority date be established as a result of a denied petition. A priority date is not transferable to another alien.

    I hope that clears the air.

    why you even pay attention to the guy - we are all directing our efforts toward our common goal.

    That said, lets all go back to faxing, calling our representatives and put an end top this retrogression.

    To moderators: This thread should be closed, its an old thread and belongs to the past.

    Looks like 150,000- 200,000 applications will reach by tommorrow evening and USCIS will stop accepting even if they dont revise visa bulletin.

    And in such case,they will retrogress a lot more than 2003 or 2004 in august bulletin.

    When i have to make my hands wet anyway - how about sending the resignation letter via a Lawyer along with Points that goes against the agreement ?

    That may silence them and it will cost me 2-3 grands hardly - what do you say.

    1. Is there any notice period mentioned in the agreement?
    2. I am not sure if sending resignation letter by lawyer is a good idea. It seems that you hate him big time.
    3. Sending a letter with points against agreement may or may not work. Depends on lot of factors (like how much money they are making thru your contract).
    4. If they sue you, you could lose more than 10,000 (include time and peace of mind).
