paskal back on the forum. That itself is a positive sign :D
there remains a sliver of hope- its called the lame duck session when a lot of such measures are passed. post election, everyone feels "safer".
a marked up bill, ready for the house, could sneak through in the post election season. we have to keep trying!

I do not know whether this is going to help IV raise more funds or not, which should be the bottom line for every effort spent at this crucial juncture.
My thoughts on this scheme - Instead of going to outside web sites, we can design a scheme locally ourselves.
Currently we have member information like EB2/EB3, what stage of GC processing etc ... We can add another read-only field to this information like range of contribution by the member. For example,
Platinum member > $1000
Gold member $501 - $1000
Silver member $251 - $500
Member $1 - $250
Non-contributing member $0
When IV can come up with member, senior member etc ... depending on number of posts by the member, even this categorization can be easily implemented in the database. The exact dollar amount need not be disclosed.

Hi Macaca:
USCIS cannot reject PERM as USCIS has nothing to do with PERM. PERM is done by the dept of labor, and this agency is not part of USCIS.
In terms of PERM, PERM is not considered an "immigrant petition" and thus would not be deemed as violation of status. PERM is berely the assurance there is no workers who want to take the job in the position beeing sought. Note, that when you go for a visa, one of the questions asked is, Have you ever filed an immigrant visa petions, or has an immigrant visa petiion was ever filed on your behalf?"
The law finds an immigrant petion only when one applies via I130 (family based immigrant petition" or I140 (employment based immigrant petition). Only filing of IMMIGRANT PETITION would constituate a violation of one's non-immigrant intent and status.
I went for consular approval last year. At that time I had applied for LC. The form had the question Have you ever filed an immigrant visa petion, or has an immigrant visa petiion was ever filed on your behalf? My attorney told me to say No.
USCIS has F1 file. Why did they not reject I-140?

I think that instead of exhausting our energy on this issue, we better think how to make progress in our fight against injustice. And to all those who are using an abusing language .... please show your guts when you go for your next visa stamping or when entering the United States on a port of entry and try to use the similar language.... you surely will get an answer/lesson you will remember for rest of your life.

It is very comprehensive list. It covers every field. Graduates of pharmacy, medicine, vet medicine etc are not PhDs. They have to go through special programs to get that degree.
thanx for your reply. However I am afraid you misunderstood pharmacy, medicine, vet med PhDS with practice professionals PharmD, MD,DVM.The people who made the list of STEM have ignored the fact that Research is highly interdisciplinary. This is unfair for many researchers in biology who should be in the STEM majors but they are not in just because of technical/clerical reasons. I request you all to take a look at this anomaly.
Thanks

would all AOS applicants receive FP notice or only those whose PD is current.
Your interpretation of the question is incorrect :p:p
I am sure about your answer though...:)
Q: Does everyone get fingerprinting notice?
A: No. Only those who apply for AOS. :)

I was just thinking if it would help to gain more publicity if this site goes by a different name. On several instances while calling lawmakers or other people, the moment I mention immigrationvoice.org they think it is related to Illegal immigration / CIR etc. I need to stress that it is about legal immigration.
Even the flyers don't catch enough attention
Any name that does not have immigration in it (something like numbersusa), and reflects our main focus - green card retrogression and legal immigration would help - Just a thought...

I would go with the prediction in the Jan 2010 Visa Bulletin:
WHAT ARE THE PROJECTIONS FOR CUT-OFF DATE MOVEMENT IN THE EMPLOYMENT PREFERENCES FOR THE REMAINDER OF FY-2010?
Based on current indications of demand, the best case scenarios for cut-off dates which will be reached by the end of FY-2010 are as follows:
Employment Second:
China: July through October 2005................CHINA IS ALREADY AT NOV 2005...SO THIS HAS HAPPENED
India: February through early March 2005.........ONE MONTH BEHIND HERE....NOT BAD WITH THE PREDICTION
If Section 202(a)(5)were to apply:
China and India: October through December 2005 ..................THIS IS THE SPILLOVER CHANCES FOR JULY-SEPT 2010....MOST LIKELY IT WILL CLOSE AT JAN 1, 2006
I tend to agree with you. Projections by DOS seems to be closer to reality.
I would stay conservative contrary to many other predictions.
1) China moving to Nov 2005 is a good thing for India. This means India will get all the remaining fall-down/fall-across numbers until priority date reaches Nov 2005. After that both India and China will share and move the dates by a month or so. This should get India to Dec 2005 to Jan 2006.
2) Many see the dates have not moved much for so many months. So they can be skeptical about the date movements in the last few months. The reason why i anticipate much larger movements in the final months is due to the fact that India gets about 3 times more visas through fall-across/fall-down than what is alloted for just India.
2009 info
Country cap for Eb-2 - aprox. 2800
2009 India for Eb-2 was 10,116.
fall-down/fall-across numbers 10,116 - 2800 = aprox. 7316
So we can see that visa movement for India (Eb-2) is greatly influenced by the number of fall-down/fall-across which seem to happen mostly in the last quarter.

When you transfer money outside the USA, one of the questions that FDIC mandates the finanacial institution collect is: SOURCE OF FUNDS. If you put this as "salary" then you (and your employer) have ALREADY paid (or will pay by next year) on these funds. There are no additional US taxes on the money. If the money was not earned thru salary (which would not be legal since you are on H1B) then you will need to declare it while filing taxes. If the money was NOT earned "under the table" and was above $600 then, the payer will send you a for called 1099 which will show how much you were paid and you have to pay appropriate taxes on that amount. In your case it most likely looks like "salary", so you have nothing to worry about.

Hi all,
Thanks for the responses and sorry for Confusions..
I am giving the scenario more clearly..
My name Before mariz is"Venkata Naga Sunita" surname: "Prachina" (changed identity).
After mariz surname changed to "Naveena".
When I applied for H4 alongwith my husband's H1B, I had my passport with old surname(Prachina). That passport got stamped for H4. Later I got another passport with surname changed(Naveena). At this point, I have one passport of old surname with H4 stamp and another passport with new surname.
While entering into US this January, on I-94, I wrote "Venkata Naga Sunita" Last name: "Naveena". In March, DMV ppl told me that the name in the I-94 should match with Visa". When, I applied for H1B in May with this new surname and attached this I-94 that has new surname "Naveena".
During H1B processing, I had to visit my home country on emergency purpose and got approval of H1B on Sept 7th, which is valid only from Oct 2nd. I re-entered to US on Sept10th and wrote my last name as "Prachina" on I-94(to match with current H4 Visa with which I am entering US). When I recived my papers this week, I was happy to see that my Change of Status is approved and surprised to see that my name on the I-797 and attached I-94 is printed as "Sunita V" Last Name:"Naveena".
Now, the I-94 number and name that are present on my I-797 are not matching that are attached to my passport. Is this OK or going to create any problems in future(SSN or stamping)..

My Lawyer does whatever my employer tells him. They never give any receipt notice or approval notice to employees.
They did not even let me file my EAD and AP along with I-485.
I can file EAD/AP myself but I'm worried they might not give me the receipt notice of my I-485 filed in july, in a last ditch effort to prevent me from fleeing(I don't yet have any intention btw) or atleast make it difficult for me.
I'm sure there would be many in this situation.
Any thoughts what can be done?

So does that mean that if one's I-485 is rejected (Has no luck with MTR either) - Then he cannot continue after his current H1-B expires (After 0 to 3 years)?
Going back to his home country is the only option?
RXSimha, the best advice you can take is to talk to an immigration lawyer. Nobody that has posted here has stated any facts, only interpretations. If you wish to learn more follow this thread:

Make an account and ask your question to Ron, which has already been answered multiple times. He is an immigration attorney. But do not stop there. Confirm all information with multiple immigration attorneys of your preference at your discretion.
Good luck.
