I see no money involved in the effort..many free loaders will be sending the emails..great job IV..I feel shame as a member that no month donation target ever reached..& this month only 125USD. I think donors will give their donation at DC only ..IV should have the capability of collecting donations on the counters at DC with some kid of receipt..Go IV Go...

I got the same email this morning and status said EAD was ordered on june 30th.
I am pretty sure we will get a 2yr EAD but will just have to wait 2 more days to confirm this.... I wonder if they are looking at the current status and if you are on h1b they are issued 1yr and processed it before june 30, while if you are currently on EAD, they kept them until June 30th.. I doubt it but just a theory...
Your theory is wrong. I am on H1B and not on EAD. My application was recieved on 06/20 and till today no changes.

That is the only option i had open to me...
I am a plumber, no degree, but equivalent qualifications.. dont qualify for H1B, and once you have shown perminat intent you carnt go back to a temp visa..so catch 22 for me.. i had to go out there get a job, and then start the process. And yes my future employer has been very understanding about it. they have been waiting for me for 2 years so far...so am anxious to say the least to get out there.
Strange thing is, in the midst of all this, i have had my fee bill, paid that, and now my attorny has received my DS230, and sent that back yesterday?? so god knows what is happening. even though the dates arnt current.???
i give up trying to figure out what is going on over there. im hoping they will just finish up with it and send it to the embassy in london, so at least it will all be here even if it just sitting here waiting for a number to become available.
My be the november bulitin will show some kind of movment?
lets all hope so.
Yes, a plumber occupation would not qualify as a Highly Skilled occupation, it isn't on the list of in demand occupations. So - are you EB3 category? You need at least a 3 year degree for that (or if you don't have a degree, you need 3 years of experience for each year missing - so 9 years experience - depending on your unspecified "equivalent qualifications" - NVQ may or may not count, but I'm only guessing that this is what you have)
If you've been waiting 2 years, you have roughly 4 more years to wait imo, but to be honest, based on the info i have, I have doubts whether it would be feasible. If you can't get an H1B because your job wasn't applicable, getting an EB green card will be very tough.
I doubt Nov will have much movement. The ONLY reason for the movement earlier this year was total miscommunication between different governmental agencies, it is unlikely that this will happen again soon. Unused visa rush only happens at the end of the visa year, not the beginning.

Lot of our people got this question. We should include this in the conference call with the immigration attorneys on this Friday July 21st.
Does the SKILL bill help persons who have already completed their masters or will it also help those who are pursuing their MBA/MS? (i.e if SKILL is implemented)
Will a person with 2 yrs experience and a MS degree or a person with 6 yrs experience and currently working towards their MBA (part-time) be exempted from the visa numbers?

I agree its a great idea, still most of crowd don't understand what are we asking and relates us to un-documented workers.
Even within legal community most people who are pre-gc stage (H1/LE Etc) they don't have any interest; ppl came to me at work after rally to tell me that they are 4-5 years away from my situation so they didn't feel attending rally. Bigger the better, we need big crowd, NJ/NY/MD/DC/VA are worthless. We can try doing rally in Houston, TX area, we may find dedicated people there. But I feel it will be very tough to show heads rally in big numbers.
On our next rally (hopefully soon) we should all carry placards but this time with ONE single slogan:
"WE ARE ALREADY LEGAL AND HIGHLY-SKILLED IMMIGRANTS, STOP LUMPING US WITH ILLEGALS AND END THE 10-YEAR GREEN CARD WAITS"

I read it, not to redicule you but, look who is quoting murthy! :D :D
Its convenient han!
I do not want to go back and forth with you guys. I rest it and thanks for posting the link.
There is a reason, I said read it and understand it. I don't think you have understood it.
I was referring to the opinion letter by Efren Hernandez, Chief (at that time), Business and Trade Services Branch. How does it matter if it was response to a query by lawyer.
Just because I don't agree with a lawyer on a particular issue, it does not mean that I have to disagree with all other issues as well. Do you think that attorney is correct all the time?
The bottom line is that opinion letter is written by a USCIS officer and that I was referring it. And most important of all, you were proven wrong, again. That is the real reason of you being upset.
Have a good day!

None of the initiatives so far has helped EB3-I and in fact it hurt EB3-I
I am Eb3 Mar 2004 and I am planning to wait until the Oct dates before making any decision.
But there is a deeper problem that I see.
IV had been extremely instrumental in making the immigration issue heard outside our community and taking it to the ears of the people making decisions.
Now, IV, from what I am hearing and am seeing (by openly not supporting the Eb3-I agenda (pappu making comments about what is wrong with the EB3 word petition)
is interested in pushing the Eb2 agenda only.
The core team explanation that Eb2 rollover nos are provided to EB3 and that is why they cannot help it, is baseless.
If everything in the past was to happen as per the process, there would be no IV at all.
Also, in the recent past, EB3 was available when Eb2 was Unavailable, so the rollover argument is wrong.
Now, if IV is definite on not providing support to the EB3 community, it is time to rethink.
I do not have a good feeling about the EB3 to EB2 conversion (it is basically going into unknown territory).

See if you can post a flyer in the Ann Arbor Indian foods store (Foods of India) near the medical capus. The one in Canton (forgot the name-- the one where they sell bhel) is also a hot spot for folks working around Ann-Arbor/Detroit areas. There is one more Indian store on Packard further up north (in Ann Arbor) Owner is a VERY FRIENDLY guy and very well connected (his connections helped in selling my car, find a subletter...!). He's alway open to flyers and such.
I have spread the word to some I know in MI, hopefully they'll respond. Good luck!

We all know its not an easy 1-2-3 to happen in a jiffy for something to be debated in the Capitol hill...signed by the President..and becoming a law, against all odds of gas hikes,natural disasters,anti immigration...Immigration stands on a scale of 1 to 10,maybe number 9 or 10.
Something has to happen which may run into years, here we are already worn-out with exploitation from our employers being on H1B.
If one is below 30-35 he can go right away to India where it is booming,others beyond 40 are confused to go back, trust me..
1)it will be a whole new struggle there with all the youngsters in the job market back home
2)kids r already sort of grownup here..they need to be adjusted to the schools/curriculum there...
might sound the most silliest... 3) I simply cant drive in the traffic there..no matter what..??!! I feel highly handicapped there without commuting.

Even I was interested in similar scenario.
1. What happens when changing employers when I-140 and I-485 pending for less than 180 days?
2. From my understanding, the process needs to restart. However, do I have to do something to withdraw pending I-485.
3. Will it be termed as denied I-485 and create problems if I apply new I-485 with new employer?
Any response will be appreciated.
I have a pending I-140 since July 2006. Today i lost my sponsor employer and don't know what to do. Can I switch my pending I-140 to another employer? What can i do NOT to lose status? I still have a valid H1B till Augist 2008 but I have travelled on my Advance Parole. Does that mean that my H1B is terminated? Please advise. Thank you.

I think I know how this works. They would outsource this program to some govt contractor (or ask the govt contractor who is working on their data ) to produce that report which costs (<10$ worth of time/effort, if they have all the data).
If all they want is money ..so be it. I am ready to pony up $50 for this,if we all approach together. But as someone suggested country of chargability is a must.

Just a simple question. Corporations are arguing that every year 100k new jobs are created in high tech. Even 75% of the new jobs are for H1b then only 75k H1bs are needed. Even if you include other jobs teacher,Healthcare you do not need more than 120K every year Why do you need unlimited H1bs? Any pro immigrant lobbying group is not giving justification in numbers though everyone accepts there should be increase in H1b numbers.There should be increase in GC numbers as backlog had increased(But in this case also no one gave correct numbers based on requirement) but nothing wrong in H1b quota and some regulations in H1b to minimise abuse.
Another aspect is in the bill they gave 115k H1b for 2008. If they do not put restrictions your company cannot get any new H1b as most of H1b quota will be used by Indian consulting companies in one day. Do you think it is correct?
If not correct what is your solution? Corporation solution for this problem is unlimited H1bs by giving exemption to STEM and US master degree holders from H1b quota.
I am also opposing the restrictions in H1b program in the bill. But I do not have any alternative solution for the problems in the H1b program.
Again, there is a common misconception that companies have unlimited access to talent in other countries, and the only limiting factor is the quota of H1B visas.
Not true, by a long shot.
To give a simple example, our company is looking for people in Australia, Denmark, Finland, Canada and UK since the pool of qualified people in India has dried up in our field. Can anyone guess where is the biggest talent pool? Nope, not in Bangalore, its right here in USA!! Not all companies are looking for the cheapest person. They are looking for the best person. And in many cases, the best person is already here, and has gathered more experience over the years working for US companies. But they cannot hire her, simply because she is on a visa and thereby beholden to another company. If she had a GC, that would free up the talent pool and thereby make many companies less reliant on H1Bs. Increasing GCs for EB candidates has the same effect as increasing H1 quota, with the added benefit of making the cream of the crop available and reducing the uncertainty and hassle of hiring an H1.
This is why it is in the best interest of companies to support EB GCs.
My friend Senthil makes the same mistakes (repeatedly, unfortunately):
(A) Assuming that "good" companies will not be affected by any change of increase in fees for H1B, since they presumably have unlimited pockets and unlimited access to unlimited talent. (Big ha!ha!)
(B) "Good" companies can always get to hire people in US if they exist, and the only reason they hire H1 is that they cannot find anyone in US as there is no one in US who is good enough for the job for love or money (Bigger ha!ha!)
As to the question "then why are companies not doing enough for EB candidates", I do not know, and neither does anyone know, truthfully. Maybe they are, but as someone pointed out, no single player in the CIR game has enough clout to run the whole show. Or else the bill would have been passed long ago.

140 reached NSC on July 11.
Receipt date is July 17, attorney says they got it today, July 24.
So for those at NSC who filed within a day or two of me, mght be better to hold off for a couple of days before filing 485 with the colored sheet which will probably add some delays in the mailroom
mine reached NSC on July 16th...hopefully i ll recieve it by next week.
