DO we guys have a plan, a project ?
How we want to approach these critical subjects ?
How are we using the funds ???
The reason why I am not contributing is I dont know where the money will go or is goin right now ????
-First of all I am happy to note that you said WE guys not YOU guys.
-Yes, we have a plan. To put it in generic terms, what we have to first do is to get professional help. Over the last 2 weeks, guys have taken pains to come on their personal time and money to D.C. to listen to and decide on such an organization. Not to mention the numerous telecons in which many of the volunteers have participated. On top of that we are launching on a membership drive to let people know of this organization. We are also planning on having a coordinated organized approach to meeting lawmakers.
-The funds would be primarily used to get such a professional organization. A little bit of it may be required for other purposes like say the PR /getting the message out
-The money as of now is not"going" anywhere - it is being collected for the uses I described above. Note that all the members have been spending from their pockets for all the meeting/visits I described above. Be assured that none of us are doing this for monetory reasons - in fact all we are getting is lesser time for our families and a lot of hard work.
-Unless people start contributing there is no way that we can do any of the activities mentioned above. To wait for the full details of the actions makes no sense for me. If I knew all these steps, why would I hire a strategist?! Also if people are not willing to contribute the money/ not do anything, how much committed are they to the cause?
If you want me to call and explain this, send me a PM with your phone number.

Hello IV Freinds,
I checked my mail last Saturday, got Cards and welcome approval notices in mail. Status at USCIS website still shows all cases pending. I had called my Senators office for follow up week before as processing dates also had also passed.
I appreciate IV for providing this website for sharing our immigration issues and concerns in this long journey.
Good luck to all IV members who are still awaiting for good day to come.

And on the top of that giving red flags.
One person already decided to be away from such "GUNDA RAJ". I'll also abstain for couple of weeks
Hope admins are competent enough to notice it.

Most of the states had processed RIR cases till May 2002. N.J (05/2002) and
NY (10/2001) before all the applications were sent to BEC. So most of the
Applicants with these dates must have already got their Green Cards . Some of my friends with these dates have already got their GC some 1 year back.
It is Non-RIR cases which had 04/2001 processing times with NJ , NY being the states which were backlogged. It is these applications which would be
causing these delays. How many percentage of EB1 , EB2 , EB3
(Employement Category) applications might be in this process. ? If there are
less number of applications then Processing Dates may move forward to
2002 / 2003 for India.
Based on the serial numbering in the pre BEC scheme, there are an average of 1k-2k peteions from california alone for the 2002/2003 years. Many Indians amongst them. Thanks the BEC's most of them locked their PD's (hopefully).
If u look at the distribution for the fiscal year 2005, EB-2 did not use much of the surplus AC21 numbers. So why is EB2 retrogressed for India and China now. As somebody indicated in other threads, the USCIS may have suspended the AC21 act. But if they did that it wud not have moved to 2003 at all. So nobody really knows their formula.
Unless the state dept releases the statistics for the fiscal year 2006, we dont know what actually is happening. One thing though, they need to further break down the ROW EB3 and establish cutoff dates for other countries as well.
What about EB-3 (Inda). Hopefully it will move to 2002 very soon. After that i think it has better chances of moving up than EB-2 (India) if the USCIS is following the strict 7% limit.

looking at your handle you might be working for IBM. Not sure if they are still using Fragomen law firm.
You don't need to get H1 stamping done if you have Advance Parole. Some firms may be suggesting their clients to renew H1B so they can charge bunch of fees. Since it is no cost for you it works in your favor as having H1B and EAD as backup doesn't hurt.

July 2nd 2007 485 filer. EB3 - July 2003 PD
Received EAD and AP in September 2007.
H1 of current employer valid till 2010
Married in November 2007 and wife in USA in Dec 2007 on H4 .
180 days after 485 filing completed in Dec 2007.
I heard that I cannot use my EAD now to switch jobs as my wife will be out of status since she is not on my green card file yet(dates have to be current to add her).
Now, I have a new job offer. Can I use AC 21 and have the new employer file a new h1 and h4 and do a job change ?
Can anyone let me know if I will have any problems either with my green card or with my wife's status in the USA after the change filing a new h1 and h4?

The article says they spend some thing like $20, 000 for their journey. How can a person who can not afford 2 square meals a day, come up with $20, 000?
Something is fishy.
Why blame illegal Indians? They are desperate for survival and come to USA to earn 2 square meals a day.
What about the Legal Indians? The so called best and the brightest.
Even legal Indians commit acts that bring shame. Just go to any anti-immigrant website and you will see tons of news article links. This is why antis call Indians slumdogs

If you have an approved I-140 based on your RIR PD, then yes you could ask to be accorded the earlier priority date. If not, you cannot ask for the earlier priority date on the basis of an approved LC alone.

1. Logically HUD document should work but again we are talking about Indian government so not sure. Insurance document might not work and I'm almost certain about it.
2. Notarizing: If the website says "Photocopy of all supporting documents including Photo should be notarized and attached to the application" then yes..
Not sure where you live but if it is driving distance then I suggest you go there.. Leave early and park on the north side of the street (it is free).
Need advise from someone who renewed Indian passport by mail at the San Francisco Indian Consulate.
My wife filled the application online and is ready to mail it, but there are questions regarding the supporting docs.
1)Proof of Residence:CGISF website shows applicable docs as Driving license or PG&E, Water or landline telephone bill displaying applicant�s address or
House Lease Agreement.
However in my wife's case, her name is not on any of the utility bills mentioned above and her Driving license has the old address.
Can we use the HUD-1 closing statement or home title as proof. Or can we use a insurance bill for this purpose? If not, please advise on other options.
2)Notarizing:I understand photo copies of any docs that I sent needs to be notarized.
Is there anything else that needs to be notarized?Your website says that "If applying by mail, Photocopy of all supporting documents including Photo should be notarized and attached to the application".
Do I need to notarize both the photos from page 1 and page 4? Please clarify.

anurakt, thanks for the update.
There is no information or caption on our home page that clearly states that this site/group is for highly skilled immigrants. We should come up with a caption that would convey this and also convey that its for all countries. We can add this beside the immigration voice logo.
The caption should be catchy and should convey the info....some thing like "by the people and for the people".
update: there is info about highly skilled immigrants on the home page but not sure if some people would have time to read these (especially those who just come in from other websites and might think this site is one of those immigration sites)
I think there is an article on front page. Also I am personnaly right now more interested in grass root state chapter person to person campaigning rather tha online campaigning. I think time has come to show the faces and numbers to each other. I appreciate your comments and my intention here is to just give an update. I am sure somebody from core is reading this and will take action if they like the idea....
Thanks once again.

Gurus,
Sorry.. I just received the letter received from USCIS.. Its mentioned as "NOTICE TO INTENT TO DENY(NOID)".
The reason specified in the letters:
- Section 203(b)(2)(A)
- 8 C.F.R 204.5(l)(3)(ii)(C)
........
Here is the definition from USCIS regulations (refer to 8 CFR �204.5 (k) (2)) for advanced degree equivalency: "Advanced degree means any United States academic or professional degree or a foreign equivalent degree above that of baccalaureate."
The key word here is degree, i.e., singular degree. That means - the beneficiary must have �a degree�, not a combination of degrees. Combination of degrees, therefore, is not permitted for EB-2 Advanced Degree classification.
I have written many times on this issue, please refer to my old posts for more details.

Hi
In this line Can H-1 B or H-4 can Invest in Shares and Mutual funds DIRECTLY? not through ORP or other company institutions as there is no direct involvment of H-1 B employee.
You can invest in stocks, mutual funds, real estate or other investment vehicles with no problem and even receive the income from them. The restriction is only with you working, not investing.

The PD for my GC application is Dec 10, 2001. I filed under EB3 category and my chargeability is India. Going by the backlog that we are currently experiencing for EB3, is it worth filing for an upgrade of the GC application from EB3 to EB2 based purely on timelines for both EB3 and EB2?
Since you are already very close to the GC, I would not recommend to go for EB2. It would take 1-2 years for the PERM and I-140 get cleared. By that time you might have got your GC. If your employer is ready to spend, give a try and you are not going to lose anything.

It seems as per the new DOL Requirements two notices has to be posted at two locations ( One at Employers office and one at the client location. U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) regulations requires that a Posting Notice be posted within your organization in two conspicuous locations for 10 consecutive business days)
As this H1-B posting info might contain the salary details etc. What happens if the client policies doesn't allow posting such notices ?? so what other options are available in such a case..
The DOL requirements are not new, it's just that the method for filing the LCA is new. The employer has always needed to post the LCA, including salary information. This is not optional, so if the employer refuses, there can be no H-1B.
