Are you folks opening a Service request before taking an Infopass appointment? When I visit the site, it says that it needs an SR number. Am I missing something?

Gaurav,

How much salary does a 12 year IT experienced guy command in India?

Can you PM me the email addresses of your contacts. I will get in touch with them for a job for myself. I am quite serious.

Thanks

Just PM you. good luck

What about the people who got RFEs for 485?

Do you guys think the visa numbers are counted for those people or not:confused::mad::o:(

Earlier I did not send and clicked NO to the poll. But how I have sent after IV supported it.

Order # FNK1822590

I think the court acknowledge Mr.Khanna's plea as 'noble' but little could be done because of bearaucracy and unknowns!

But we here are asking for the numbers (which USCIS should have) and the details of the process USCIS is already following.

Again it has to come from a citizen.

Nope it is not good
Why do STEM graduates have to have it the easy way while we have it hard. The least the STEM graduate can do is wait for 2 years for visa

Now you are telling the real reason :)

2 yrs wait?? Its been 4 yrs and yet to file 485

Fortunately you are one among the minorities that oppose this proposal. I am glad that IV has this proposal as part of its agenda

Chanduv23 First - let me say I respect your outstanding and active contribution on this forum very much. Having said that, I'd say, you both conveniently missed the point in my post.
I am not arguing about who is ahead in the line to get the non-existent cake - please read my post once again and point it out to me where I said anything in such regard..

Frustration comes from the point that all the discussions take tone that all IV efforts are to help EB2 category alone. It is becoming frustrating for EB3s to keep reading posts and participating in actions when everyone keeps portraying IV effort as EB2 only effort.

I'd request you both to please read my post again.
All I have said is that message need to be made stronger that IV effort is for all EB community.

By responding with who's ahead in line type of comment you both are just ignoring the situation that already exists as of today on this forum wrt EB categories. I'd venture to say that if at all you're making that feel of eb3 left out even worse than it already it.

Apologize if I have offended anyone and will gladly take that red dot for speaking out my mind.

As far as the lawsuit is concerned, just like all the other IV efforts, I'd gladly participate in it.

Another possibility should also be investigated and that is re. selective enforcement of zeigler memo by some DOLs.



NSS,
This is from your direct quote
I tend to agree.... nowhere in the past discussions IV seem to have cared about EB3s. It is more frustrating to see this situation sincce Eb3's have been suffering for longer with no hopes what so ever.
And anyone trying to implicate that EB3s are less skilled are plain wrong - we got in EB3 limbo due to large corporations doing things by book (or for plain long term commitment out of workers).

Either way, IV leadership needs to re-iterate and re-emphasize at least once that this is not EB2 fight only but EB fight in general. IV discussions simply have gone EB2 biased only for too long.



Your intentions may not be as crude as your words. But every word speaks for itself, from these words I gather your are quiet frustrated, and I can very well relate my problems with your's on that matter. But I really know how to read and write and understand the implication of different words.

Don't take it personal but there is a famous phrase out in the world
" A man is as good as his words" Choose your words carefully, we all need to educate ourselves about using right words when fighting to change this system.

One of the reasons why EB2 got little bit more highlight because, the number of candidates stuck in that line is higher and please don't ask me how much. If the load on EB2 section reduces, who ultimately benefits? Yes! EB3.

So lets not fight EB2 war or EB3 war, lets all fight together for one cause and only one which is to, bring a change in this system.

Take Care

Can you let us know how to access LUD from USCIS after login? I think many will appreciate if you do so


Ok Here goes:

1) Go to https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/selectusertype.jsp
2) Click on "To register as an applicant customer click here."
3) Accept the Terms and Conditions
4) Enter the information CORRECTLY.
5) Once done enter your I-140 SRC, LIN etc number without dashes by adding a case.
6) Either immediately or after a day or so, IF there is an update on ur I-140 LUD you will see it.

Did anybody stop to think that maybe Mr. thunderbolt is just pulling a fast one on all of us.

I mean .. it hard to believe that a parent would think twice before reporting a matter like this.





Tell me. Why should someone hire a illegal nanny in the first place? Knowing the consequences, why should they come on this forum and ask for support?

I strongly recommend thunderbolt to post the video on youtube and share it with all of us. He can share the link on sulekha also.

Well - it is his choice if he wants to complain to the police.

I am sure mr thunderbolt will never go to the cops because of his immigration status

there is a proverb in telugu but dont want to translate it here. i dont see anything wrong in his post. its only losers who jump to defend themselves because they know they are losers.

Man! Who r u? Wat is ur interest in joining this forum? Nobody is asking what u think. You don't belong here.

Can we propose a bill which
No offense - but it seems you are proposing like you are a congressman.. said & done..

I have filed for H1B under the Masters quota but i will be graduating only in May and gave an official document from my University that i would be graduating. Somebody i know had also done a similar thing but he got a h1B rejection mail from USCIS yesterday. This has made me really upset. Is anyone there who has filed with a similar document and has received H1B? He had filed it witha consultant while mine is a highly reputed company. Will that make a difference?

Hi Everybody,

I would like to start this thread for the benefit of people who do not have a straightforward immigration history. In a nutshell, I hope in the future this thread will serve to provide information and advice on

Out of Status issues - Inconsistency with what's stamped in the passport and what you're actually doing
Unlawful Stay - Stay beyond the date in the I-94 card


The main focus will be on what these things can do to your i) AOS/CP filings ;and/or ii) future non-immigrant visas.

I came to this country because of a twist of fate and had zero knowledge of the immigration laws here. Through the school of hard knocks, I have gained considerable knowledge about this convoluted process that affects us all and hopefully what I learnt will be of use to other people in the same boat.

A special mention goes out to "unitednations" for his skill and knowledge about various issues. Thanks buddy, you're a huge asset to all of us.

darn......processing dates moved only by 7 days. TSC moved to August 30th 2007.

Hi,


Please reply to the post with order#..so that the thread will be alive and on top so that no one miss.

I am planning to send the e-mails to the media regarding the FLOWER DAY...JULY 10TH.

Please share your ideas.

Thanks,
Chandra.

how to contribute 25$ for this initiative
Let me know how to contribute via paypal or mail it to IV

Look at pg 10

Even the most conservative estimate will show 25k EB2 applications between October 1st 2005 - September 1st 2006. You still have Eb3 to eb2 conversions, labor subs etc. So 1 lakh 485 including dependents is good for 2004 and 2005. With per country quota of 3800 + row scraps I still think a person with PD 2006 Eb2 will wait a decade to get his green card or end up at Silicon valley of India, Bangalore.

What Details? I have mentioned in one of my posts here that my PERM has not yet been filed....No details regarding my green card processing.....Please read my posts to get more details on this.

Admin need to add three more options to 'Processing Stage' info in the header, 'Not Yet Filed', 'Not Interested in GC', and 'GC Received'. N/A should be removed, as there is always some Processing Stage.

Purpose and goal of the organization is to further your interests...
Whatever question you ask, we shall make an attempt to answer.....Even if it has been answered ....before we would again answer....

Do you find your questions answered ???...Do you think that this activity is useful...??

Please contribute to IV to further your interests....

As it is a forum and everyone have common in interests, while questions are answered, it is also important that we have collective opinions and conclusions, ie everyone helps each other with experience and no one does things for commercial purposes.

I have seen people not liking what I write, though I am not an expert, if you notice my posts, I always insist on being careful and not believeing employers or lawyers and not make your own conclusions about GC or USCIS or DOL or employers or Lawyers.

While most people want green cards, they do not realise that things are not the same as before, and maybe green card may or may not even be an option (that includes me too), which does not mean that we must not try or do what we can. Thats why I support IV, I have contributed $200 so far and will be contributing.

If someone can contribute with ideas, guidances, experience, that is also a contribution. I have seen lot of posts saying, we must dress up as Gandhi in Washington DC and have a strike, a day without h1b etc and ask for Green Cards. Such things may be possible if we have a majority like the illegals. If H1bs grow in millions, then it is a option. Such a situation may not arise. H1b system can be corrected at grassroots and IV is one such organization capable of achieving this without protests and strikes.

I am really sorry about your situation. While, it is true that there is a lot under USCIS' adjudicator's control, we need to give it our best try and exhaust our options before we give up. I think that being Indian, IT and skilled (I am all 3 !) does not have that much of a bearing on one's life situations and connection to green card being approved. Case in point : I went through a rough time myself (see beginning of the thread) and even paid the price (divorce, heartbroken) for taking a chance. However, everyones situation is unique.

If you can post details of your case, then someone from here is sure to be able to give you some guidance. One last piece of advice, there is no substitute for a damn good lawyer who can get you the results. It might not come cheap though. There are instances of people having accrued unlawful stays beyond 1 year and lawyers having gotten them their EB based green cards later through CP using tricks such as waivers etc.

Where there's a will, there's a way.

Deecha,
1).I came to USA on L1-B in 2003 October and the I-94 was till september-2006.
2). Then i changed my Visa to H1-B in 2005.
3). I was asking my employer to file for change of status from L-1 to H-1.
4). Those guys filed for a new H-1 and sent it to a consulate in India.
5). I was not aware of this and i thought i am legal till september the expiration date on my Visa.
6). Labor got cleared in July-2007.
7). Thought i would file for I-140 and I-485 together and found out that my I-94 was expired since September-2006.

What is the best course of action here to remedy my situation??
Any advice or details of a great Immigration lawyer who dealth with such cases before would be of great help.

Thanks in Advance !!
