The problem is I cant. Its the employers lawyer firm and my employer wouldnt agree to that.

Did anyone research whether it is possible to get some relief through rulemaking, instead of legislation? For example, there is no 'explicit' prohibition against issuing employment authorization to spouses of H1bi employees. The rule-making agency (in this case the DHS or USCIS) can grant a benefit that spouses be provided with employment authorization. Recently, the USCIS actually did provide regulatory relief by de-coupling the H1bi period of stay from the period of stay in H4 status. An idea to consider...
well I don't think anyone spent time in understanding current law and try to work for us,
current immigration law is very subjective and many organizations or interpretting for their own advantage,
we just need to put some effort to see how we can close certain loopholes and make better for us, e.g. labour subst, was big loophole, thank god itz closed now,
I think we should not discuss stratergies any more in this public forum and should take this outside either on conf call or thru private message

Please stays away from Syed H Simin PC law firm. They don't answer calls, the receptionist or the front desk phone operator is very rude. Most of them who answer phone calls have a heavy accent , don't know the current immigration procedures or law but still they try to answer your questions. Most of the time they put your call on hold for 15+ mins and hang up on you. Very frustating and totally unprofessional. I wouldn't want to hire them even if they provide service at no charge.
Only 3 people in this firm know how to talk politely and answer your question properly, and they are the actual attorneys. The rest of them in the law office think that they are the DOS chief :) You won't find such kind of people even in a 99c store :D

I would be really surprised if they are not rude and customer friendly. Its the curse of Indian Govt employe's attitude. No matter where they go...they can not change. Most of the time their service is pathetic,rude and unfriendly. Unfortunately they are representing india to all over the world.

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 already mentioned in my previous posts (multiple posts with same matter for people like you and me, see it and understand it well) how we are getting more than 50k visas just for EB2 India. I am giving it here again the visa allotments for 2006 and 2007 years when theres vertical fallouts. Now its changed to horizontal fall outs.
Due to this as many of us think its not the EB3 India which is losing, but its EB3 ROW.
Class --------------------------------------> 2006 | 2007
Total Employment-based Approvals ----------> 159,081 | 162,176
EB1 ---------------------------------------> 36,960 | 26,697
EB2 ---------------------------------------> 21,911 | 44,162
EB3 ---------------------------------------> 89,922 | 85,030
Fourth:-------------------------------------> 9,539 | 5,481
Fifth (investors) ----------------------------> 749 | 806
See the Total Employment Based Visa approvals for 2006 and 2007 159,081 and 162,176. But there are only 140,000 visas in EB category. The rest of the visas came from Family Based visas which are not used for the previous fiscal year. The share for each category: Each EB1, EB2 and EB3 should get 1/3 of 140,000 = 46,666. But due to the less demand in EB1 and EB2 ROW all the visas falling to EB3 ROW due to the Vertical falling.
EB1 ROW --> EB2 ROW --> EB3 ROW.
EB1 INDIA --> EB2 INDIA --> EB3 INDIA.
As theres not much demand for EB1 ROW and EB2 ROW, all the unused visas are going to fall to EB3 ROW. So from this time its going to be like Horizotal fall out like below.
EB1 ROW/EB1 INDIA --> EB2 ROW/ EB2India/ EB2China-->EB3ROW/EB3 INDIA.
So this time to fall any VISAS into EB3 ROW they have to pass through EB2 India/EB2 China. So this makes EB3 ROW dates would retrogress due to the decrease in visa numbers availabilty.
As I said each category would have 46,666. So EB1 and EB2 together will have around 93,332 visas. But in EB1+EB2 in 2006 about 50,000 visas approved and in 2007 about 70,000 visas approved. So for 2008 also asume the demand for EB1 and EB2 is 70,000. But the availability of VISAS are 93,332 as said above + unused family visas which come around 19,000+.
So for this 2008 fiscal year for EB2 India and China the total visa numbers availla ble are
(93,332 +19,000) - 70,000 = 42,332.
So around 42 thousand + 9,800 (regular 7% of 140k) = around 52k Visas Just for India , because EB2 China was already Jan 2006 a year back. And I dont think it would take any considerable share in this 50k other than its regular 9,800 visas.
Get me back if you have any doubts.
Hi vldrao
I see ur predictions coming true, but with a big BUT, the flow "EB1 ROW/EB1 INDIA --> EB2 ROW/ EB2India/ EB2China-->EB3ROW/EB3 INDIA." may be a make-shift approach just to use up leftover visas for this year. This is not a published rule anywhere. So how can u be so certain based on Ron Gotcher or how can he be so certain that this gonna be the approach going forward.
If u made this prediction based on the above rule, then where did u get the news that the visa flow will be changed from vertical to horisontal???? Or was it just a fluke????
We have being diched by USCIS/DOS so many times that i believe such move "too good to be true". It seems like this VB is also like the July07 where everybody when current with the difference that only EB2 IC are forwarded.
Due to this as many of us think its not the EB3 India which is losing, but its EB3 ROW.

But still the good news is everyone would be able to get their EADs and escape from the clutches of H-1B renewals and restrictions of remaining with the same employer etc. It's freedom to work anywhere! Doesn't matter when actually the I485 gets approved, until then you're free of H-1B tension at least. This is a big leap forward.
Vin,
I would bet my chances with H1B rather than EAD. I myself is on EAD since 3 years and know the issues in getting the renewal on time. EAD will help those spouses who are on H4 to work but the circus will continue until the final approval is received.
TIA

Indeed it makes no sense that people who have families to support get nothing, while those who do not have families get it.
Anyway, it is not over yet. I have been able to get congress to approve checks for military families, so anything is possible.

The only positive I can take from this is that it will remove most if not all the US masters degree holders from the general queue.
It may take time but atleast for people such as myself (direct H1B in 1999), we can move up in the queue.
I sincerely hope that IV supports this initiative.

hey guys quick question...my existing AP just expired yesterday. however I had applied for AP renewal 120 days in advance and received an approval in Oct. The problem is the new AP that I received in Oct is valid from Oct 2008 until Oct 2009 even when I had a valid Ap until Dec 2008. So basically I lost 2 months when I reapplied for AP. Can I do anything to get 2 months added?

A quick net-worth calculator:
Wakes up and decides more action is needed -------------> +10 pionts
Considers two options:
Become more active at IV and help shape and lead effort ---> worth +100 pts
Open a new venue for influencing our future ---------------> Also worth +100 pts
Finally settles on an easy three-pronged third way:
Trash current volunteer leaders ----------------------------> -500 points
Offer no new ideas on what can be done--------------------> -200 points
Use words such as "zapata" in a post -----------------------> -50 points.
Here's how you can say sorry: Add a mew member (or contribute a dollar) to IV for every -10 points you have earned.
too Good :)
You have got bonus points from IV core!!

I have been to the indian consulate couple of times and what I have seen so far is that people staying in the US take the consulate officers for granted.
People take the token and start filling up the form in the consulate itself, they will be at the window and will be pasting photograph or filling up the form itself on the counter.
I think the consulate officer should ask people that will you behave the same way at an US consulate??
People become impatient just waiting for 10 minutes as if they entire indian consulate has been waiting for them to show up at the office.
The way we Indians behave boarding a flight in US, the same does not happen in India. The way we behave with the consulate officers at Indian consulate does not happen at the US consulate. Why do not the same people trying filling up the form at the US consulate or try pasting photograph and even run to grab the original when they are at an US consulate.
We want the same level of professional at the Indian consulate then we need to show the same level of professional at Indian consulate that we show at US consulates.

Interesting observations Deepak. Issues are not very simple and are very deeply rooted to even think about changing them. To begin with there are tooooooooo many mouths to feed and people still dont realize the importance of population control:(:( Whe demand heavily outweighs available resourses then competition increases (basic to Darwinism). Primal instincts of survival come into play and behavioural modifications visible in the western nation are easily wiped off. Generally people have a desire that things be in an order but unfortunately due to the population stress prevailing in India, "disorder, corruption, favoritism" are the "order".
Will your generation be able to see this change? Possibly not?
Introduce the same stressors in the west and you will notice the same habbits surface here too. Natures way of dealing I guess??
One thing is for sure; If you practice non-violence in thought and action then chances are that your surroundings will ultimately reflect that same back to you. The way you react is most important than what the surroundings actually are. :D:D:D:D:D
Just read through a few posts in this thread and you will see "different" types of reactions and the ensuing emotions....That is all going no where. It all goes back into the global cloud of emotions and thoughts that you and me subscribe to, to live through this life.....Putting good out and taking good in is the only thing we can do...

Thanks BharatPremi!
Appreciate your response. I have couple of questions/thoughts. Your logic is based on the fact:
1. Not MANY cases left with PD before 2003
2. 2003 and 2005 most cases moved over to EB2
3. In July 2007, PD moved over to June 2003
What about cases in 2004? not many?
And, the movement (to 2005) would happen only during last quarter of the FY when numbers overflow from other categories? Or under normal movement?
First Bullshit Period: 2003 - Realization that EB3-I will be dead slow - Sub
Labor black Market flourished mainly in NY, CA and TX.
We saw a new animal "Virtual Office". Lot of ethically and
morally(Now even legally) illegitimate transfers occured
from EB3 to earl PD based EB2.
Second Bullshit Period: 2005-JAN to APRIL is a key "Bullshit period" - As in
May PERM was gonna to be released, people
fanatically started preparations to switch over to EB2
using PERM. So maximum fence hopping done in this
period and continued till 2006 mid.
Fact: In june 2007 EB3-I was already reached to June 2003 as current PD.
So logically speaking once dates for EB3-I reaches to 2005 start mark then virtually it should not take long to reach to 2006 mid mark as EB3 numbers considerably reduced and with same amount EB2-I considerably increased so EB2- I will stuck for a very long long time once it reaches to 2005 start mark and Eb3-I will be moved with jet speed. Now we may have some EB3-I with PD before June 2003, it will surely be a stock from NC stuck - That is the only entity which you can not tag a number and hence the base of inaccurate prediction.So far so good. Considering all this I believe Eb3-I at least with PD 2004-mid should become current by the end of 2008 december.Last quarter of this year will be THE quarter for EB3-I
Other thing is unpredictable and abrupt decisions by USCIS, just like what it did during this April - So all in all, I think it (EB3-I) should reach to 2005 mark by 2009 mid.

This is a slippery slope,
"would create a quota exemption for certain highly skilled immigrants who have at least three years of U.S. work experience"
the keyword is "certain", in skil that "certain" meany MS or PHD, what does this certain mean, it all depends on the definition of certain, it would be nice if the use the same definition of skil (masters and phd)
would create a quota exemption for certain highly skilled immigrants who have at least three years of U.S. work experience

whats with the quotes...comparing to Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr...Please dont kid yourself.
They did it for their country and fellowmen to be free from the clutches of oppression (a much serious issue than green card i think). Although even that is extended selfishness (cos of being Indian or African American) but they dedicated their entire lives for that cause.
We are not even close...this is just for MY GREEN CARD!
am i wrong?
