I am one of many many and happy to see this development.
I am puzzled.
Just would like to remind you all , only couple of months back, there was a great optimizm of CIR .. but today we know it is in stalemate.
So I think this time around we should be cautious. I have a question... What is the gaurantee that this bill is not to increase H1-B alone? Sorry If I am not being optimistic here.
I request, Our web faxes clearly state why we support SKILL BILL... If I read right and remember it well, this Forums goal is to reduce retrogression/backlogs.
Now to be positive I am copying an extract that was in quotes in press release ..
“To our detriment, current policy mandates that we educate and train these brilliant individuals and then send them away to other countries to compete against us.”
Thank you IV for your efforts.

Dude didn't you say this to someone in your earlier post? "mind your language..." PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH!!!
BTW if you are in a public forum and your post states "screw-ups", "we need answers". please expect people to react to that. If you feel free criticizing a group that has done so much learn to take some criticism on urself. I am a paying member and I have every right to react to your asinine comments.
My question was directed to the IV core team. R u from the IV core team? IF not, shut the hell up and keep your rotten comments to yourself!

H1bslave,
Are uou IT manager or working in non IT field. If you are in IT and non manager then doors are closed for you to go to canada.
Thanks for looking into my post.
I have MS + MBA and also have PM experience.
Any suggestion for my original request?
thanks in advance.
First thanks to those who put there first hand experience in this thread, it made me think again. And now I am deciding to cross the border and go north, after 9+ years in US on H1b.
Could someone please refer a Do-it-yourself kit that they have used and/or immigration consultant?
I contacted one consultant, they email almost every week and when I called/emailed them saying I am ready to pursue there has been no response from other side yet.
It will be great help for me if you could refer a kit or a consultant.
Looking forward to join H1->Canada community :D
Thanks

This guy's a congenital pessimist.
H-1B numbers did go up. Now also the numbers are going up to 115,000 and then 180,000. It is only GC numbers which are going down and down.

There was a time when we stopped accepting checks then we started to accept them again, so not sure what state we are in currently.

We do NOT support H1b increase without first reforming the EBsystem - we are neutral on this issue. There is nothing for us to gain by either supporting or opposing H1-b increase. We cannot support it because it worsens retrogression. We cannot oppose it for the simple reason that we are ourselves on H1-B. If someone thinks H1-B is bad, then how on earth can you justify giving GCs to these H1-Bs ? Why don't we start by deporting ourselves then ?
The reason zazona and numbers USA are "successful" is simply because they are citizens groups - and they have a sympathetic audience of folks who lost their jobs, as well as sympathetic mouthpieces like Lou FOULMOUTH. Politicians are bound to give weightage to these people's concerns (valid or not) if they wish to remain in power.
Lets leave H1-B bashing as an exercise to the zazona,foulmouth and co. We have scarce resources to begin with as it is, and they are best spent on something constuctive.Unfortunately, we do not seem to have any shortage of ideas on what new items IV should be working on.
Its actually the strategy that is wrong. The numbersusa
, zazzona etc is also a very small group but they use
right strategy.
At one hand you support H1b increase and also want greencard reform.
Those are contradictory things. Unless IV starts working against further
H1B incease , then only Corp America will start working on EB reform.
actually thats the reason I like unitednations. Whats he says is very true
(yes not very pleasant)

Here is the history of derivative acts under 14th amendment related to employement:
14th Amendment of the United States Constitution: guarantees due process and equal protection under the laws.
The Civil Rights Act of 1866, Section 1981: covers race-based discrimination by employers. Individuals may sue to assert their rights under this Act; which, unlike Title VII, has no limitation on back-pay liability.
The Civil rights Act of 1871, Section 1983: provides persons who believe they have been deprived of rights, privileges or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws to redress and holds those responsible for the deprivation liable to the person injured.
Equal Pay Act of 1963: forbids pay differentials based on sex. It covers all employees who come under the Fair Labor Standards Act, plus executive, administrative, professional employees and outside sales people. Investigation and compliance responsibilities were transferred from the Labor Department to the EEOC on July 1, 1979.
Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act: bans discrimination in employment because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. It covers all terms and conditions of employment; and, it holds employers responsible for any discrimination that goes on within the employer's organization. Title VII is administered by the EEOC and covers employers with 15 or more employees.
Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA): bans employment discrimination because of age against anyone 40 years of age and older, (also know as ADEA). Investigation and compliance responsibilities were transferred from the Labor Department to the EEOC on July 1, 1979.
Executive Order 11246: requires Federal contractors to include a nondiscrimination clause in all contracts and subcontracts in excess of $110.000 and all construction projects financed, even in part, with Federal funds. Revised Order No. 4 requires a written affirmative action program from contractors with 50 or more employees and contracts of $50,000 or more. This order is enforced by the U.S. Department of Labor.
Rehabilitation Act of 1973: Section 503 requires employers with government contracts and subcontracts of $2,500 or more to take affirmative action for qualified handicapped individuals. The regulations implementing the Act require "reasonable accommodation" to the physical and mental limitations of handicapped employees and applicants. Section 504 covers the employment practices of all recipients of Federal financial assistance, a broad spectrum of agencies and institutions from private employers operating under a Federal grant, to public schools, colleges and universities. Both Sections 503 and 504 are enforced by the OFCCP.
Pregnancy Discrimination Act: amends Title VII and states that employment discrimination based on pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions is prohibited under Title VII. According to EEOC, the amendment, which affects those employers under the jurisdiction of Title VII, requires that "persons affected by pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions be treated the same as persons affected by other temporary disabilities."
South Carolina Human Affairs Law: prohibits discrimination based on race, religion, color, age, sex, disability and national origin.
Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA): gives protections to qualified individuals with disabilities that are like those provided under Title VII. It also guarantees equal opportunity in employment, public accommodations, transportation, state/local government services and telecommunication. ADA is enforced by EEOC.
1991 Civl Rights Act of 1991: allows employees to seek compensatory and punitive damages and for trial-by-jury. (this amends Title VII.)
=====
Now the way I interpret it, the requirement to not discriminate based on place of birth is protected by constitution under 14th amendment.
The Equal Protection Clause, part of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, provides that "no state shall ... deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws". The Equal Protection Clause can be seen as an attempt to secure the promise of the United States' professed commitment to the proposition that "all men are created equal" by empowering the judiciary to enforce that principle against the states.
Furthermore, the precedent rulings related to The Civil Rights Act of 1964 indicate how strictly this is interpreted and enforced. For example, in 1974, the Supreme Court ruled that the San Francisco school district was violating non-English speaking students' rights under the 1964 act by placing them in regular classes rather than providing some sort of accommodation for them.
I therefore believe there is a good chance at the Supreme Court ruling that because of long wait times of more than 3 years for a Green Card plus requirement of same or similar job during that long wait until the green card is received plus country quota affecting people born only in few countries leads to disadvantage for people of these few countries at work.
And yes, even I took law course and gave a seminar during my MBA. But even you would concur that this course at best is basic and does not make a person authority of the US legal system.
Finally, forget me or you, even a lawyer cannot say for sure what the final ruling will be in any case. And hence the best a person can do is give an educated opinion. In addition by human nature, the way I would interpret laws would be to my advantage while the way you would interpret them would be to your advantage. And hence I can understand your biases (and mine as well) because in case the country quota is found illegal by the US Supreme Court, it is the ROW that is going to be affected the most.
Don't want to pick on anyone one or anything.. just case-in-point to what I posted earlier.. here we have intense legal debates, and legal opinions with people who can not distinguish between Title VII and EEO which are legislative laws and between the constitution. These laws are not part of the constitution and they include provisions for federal and local governments and their agencies to override parts of rules if they deem necessary.

I think it is not fair on your part to say that current IV core has not achieved anything. To form an organization and getting people with similar interests and problems in itself is a major task.
It is very easy to say fancy things like "nada, zitto, zapata..."..(I dont even know what the last thing means). I am not sure even if you or me get into their shoes we would be able to operate in manner which delivers results in a matter of weeks.
Please do think I am snipping at you personally. I too am someone who is suffering from the pain caused by this GC mirage like you and I completely empathize with you.

You must promote your state chapter by starting a thread and keeping it alive so those visiting the forums will know. (most people only look at latest threads)
Where is the link to your state chapter in your signature?
Well , As I have said in my earlier post I contacted the IV powers-that-be to start the Nebraska state chapter about 3 weeks ago, after initial response (asking for my phone number , which I provided) I am yet to hear from them.
Once the chapter is started, I will do whatever is needed to promote the chapter including starting a thread here and modifying my signature.

I never knew Hindi is a local language in US:D Moreover I dont have anything against Hindi or any other language. Its the personal experience with people on more than one occasion.
I was not talking about Hindi in particular. I simply meant the language local to the place you are at, be it any city or state in India or the US.
