Why every discussion has to end with donate - why donate? What IV has done so far? Where the money goes? EB2 vs EB3... etc. Stop hijacking threads.
.
I wonder if this is one of the rogue users from another forum. this is tiring to post everyday, but here are IVs acheivements:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum2-retrogression-priority-dates-and-visa-bulletins/1707445-dec-visa-bulletin.html#post2100101
well the so called hijacking - The very fact this website is even up is because of donors.
Also I contribute $100 a month and don't get any money from IV. We are all volunteers.
We are all immigrants working on a campaign.
I see that the ones who don't want to do any work start complaining and blame every one else who is contributing. And you want to attack IV and donors!
Also see the yahoo video posted above.
Of course no one is forcing you to donate, you can just go around complaining, accusing and attacking everyone for the next 10 years instead.

but, Once I was stopped at the airport by a security agent while travelling within US and he asked me abouit my status. When I mentioned I am on Work Visa he asked me to show the passport and Visa, I was not carrying one. I showed him my DL, He was on call with someone for 20-30min and come back returned my DL and istructed to carry the passport whenever travelling.
Per law, all H1B papers (atleast LCA) should be kept where non-immigrants work. There is no clear law for non-immigrants to hold passport/visa/EAD always with them. They recommend always to keep with you. Further, consulates( when they issue visa), won't give any specific instruction to non-immigrants to carry passport/visa always with them. However, for immigrants (LPR) it is very clear that one MUST hold orginal GC always with them. It is rule/law. The welcome notice clearly shows. Although, many dont practice, it is still a rule. I heared a story when a guy pulled off he got big trouble, when he claimed he is a LPR; and does not carry the GC.

"Representative Elton Gallegly (R-CA) introduced H.R. 133, Citizenship Reform Act of 2007, which would limit citizenship by birth to children born to at least one permanent resident or citizen parent."
Does this mean that if we do not have green cards our childern born here are not citizens. Am I understanding it right..
This bill will not even be discussed.

I have bunch of colleages who have filed 485 two years ago and they are all saying you can take different responsibilities. I thought they would have done better research on this one as they are at that stage. May be they are wrong. I beleive their 485 is status is at "pending approval". Does anyone know what could be the possible final status for 485 during retrogression? This may be the decider for both AC21 and existing employer role change. Can anyone confirm this one?
One of my friend's 485 was denied after 2.5 years. Their H1 was over and did not extend. Both Husband and wife were working on EAD and they never even had 1% doubt about not getting approved. The reason was that the base labor was already utilized by his employer for another employee and that guy got GC about 2 months before this guy. Incidentally both are friends and worked for the same company. But USCIS was kind enough to allow him to continue provided they file for new labor through Perm and they also got the Old PD. Then they applied in Perm through Sheela Murthy and then got their GC in almost like 45 days. This happenned about 8 months back. PLEASE REMEMBER THIS SITUATION. I am not sure if this is USCIS mistake for approving 140 for 2 people with the same labor. This still haunt's my friend's family as I remeber the day they got the rejection letter.

Please join your state chapters and participate in this all important action item.
Take a moment to think about this:
If the bills don't pass before the end of this fiscal year, then we are stuck for one more year (wishing and hoping) before any provisions pass and take effect in Oct 2009. Even if there are any provisions that take effect in Oct 2009, we have to consider the delays due to USCIS backlogs (imagine what CIR will do) and adjudication time. There is really no fun in this lifestyle of uncertainty. This is our chance to make it happen for us. Let each one of us play a key role in deciding our own future. Let's do it.

Did any one whose I-485 was Xfr'd from NSC->CSC->NSC receive FP notice? If so, please list your city/state where FP is scheduled and if you opened a SR for FP.
In particular, i want to track folks from bay area, CA and those who didn't open SR.
Thanks!
I called them up yesterday and i was kept on hold for around 2:15 hrs before i hung up! the music was not pleasing either! Will give it a try again sometime tomorrow!

Did you have to get it in advance or did you get it on arrival?
I got this in advance. But, it does not apply to you as you have a GC and you don't need a Mexican visa.

After reading the comparisons and statements from House leaders, this bill may languish for a few months before becoming law. STILL I HOLD MY HOPES UP.

Good idea.
What we need is:
1- A document about the economic impact legal immigrants are making (H1, L1, EAD etc). It should include estimates of Federal, state, SS tax and sales taxes. You can also include estimates how we can impact economy by buying houses. Use the research document used by another organization someone posted yesterday to understand how such documents are written. Get some number crunchers and people with good writing skills in your team. There was a google group created by GC_peshwa yesterday. I think this group could do such proactive work. Set your timelines and work on it. You can post updates of your group on the forum so that others know about it and can join if interested. Once you finish the document, it can be sent as a release and also sent to reporters and lawmakers.
2. This group can also work on your idea from the post by posting on other news sites.
...

Yes the illegal reporters do provide a lot of fodder and in most cases the data can be easily debunked. I'll check their documentation and how they do research along with other volunteers. Will also check gc_peshwa's group. In fact the census generally doesn't give immigration status, do thats worth checking.
I'll post back once I create a appropriately named google group.
Were you part of the call yesterday on the Filing I-485 when PD is not current....we do have plans like these...and take part.
I missed this, will join the future calls

ok so when would EB2 come back to its old status of Jan 2003(it was so for past 1.5 yrs atleast b4 jumping to june 2004 and again retogating)...would it be in this current fiscal yr..i.e b4 sept 2008 or it will take whole of nxt fiscal yr to come to that kind of dates?
I believe once it gets past Jan 2003 PD's, dates will move steadily.

a recapture helps everone by moving the line forward and making dates current. there is also a parallel effort on to bring changes like 485 filing without PD being current. so no one ie being left behind or ignored. these efforts will help all of us affected by retrogression and stuck in different stages.

If this happened to your daughter before even the july fiasco, what didfference it makes if it happenes again with the fiasco over our heads?
What kind of identity theft you think will happen and why?
When it happenes with your credit card at famous outlets, why the heck we should be too worried if it happens at USCIS?
Whatz your point?

As another member already indicated , I already mentioned my PD, country and EB category in my post.
Anyway, I had already waited 7 years in the GC process before recently coming across this forum and choosing this handle name when joining. Guess you could say that I was prepared to dig in and stay for the long haul if required which is why I chose that handle name. A few ups and downs/ forwards & backwards (even if in years !) in the priority dates won't deter me much now :).
Although, I could just be drunk with euphoria of my PD becoming current in March and blabbering away pompously. So don't you steal that login (pessimystic) away from me ! I reserve the right to choose it if and when I feel so :)

My experience was just great. My company had inhouse immigration deptt and their own attorney as employees.. She was just great and very transparent on every process. She sent all the documents and updated my at every step on where I stand.
I really respect that lady, who was doing way beyond her job profile to keep us updated and well informed. never paid anything for the attorney service or GC filing except a one time fee of $500 when the company hired some attorneys on contract to get over the overwhelming request during July fiasco. The attorney also adviced me and guided me on how to leave the company and what is AC-21 and how to do that. So gave me a lot of pointers on how to choose a new attorney. Though I had a lot of conflict of interest with my company policy and management, one thing I always appreciated about it was that their healthcare and immigration was far better than any company in US. Now I heard its not great and employees have issues related to this. I paid on $15 for the delivery of the baby and that was the total amount I paid in 9 months .. thats it.
The crux of the story is , when choosing a company , initially these things really dun matter but in the long run these are things that really matters, I would suggest everyone who is switching the companies, make sure the company has the right healthcare plan and immigration services. Do not hesitate to discuss this with the HR. I always do and make it clear, whenever I am questioned by HR , I just tell them , "The company has selected me but I haven't selected the company yet." The HR also has the pressure to close the position they will provide you with all the different options. Do not always run for the $$$ a few 1000 $$$ doesn't make the difference as at the end of the day those also shrink with tax and deductions, but the perks like these stay and pay more than $$$
