Come on people - This is so easy to do - Simply cut and paste the letter below to http://www.WhiteHouse.gov/Contact at the very least.
"I am writing to inform you of how the country based quotas imposed on Employment Based green cards are unfair and totally illogical. When I immigrated to the US, I believed that this country was a meritocracy where you were judged based on your abilities and qualities. These country based quotas reward people depending on where they or their ancestors were born. This causes people from India and China to wait over a decade to get a green card whereas someone from another country with similar or lesser abilities can obtain permanent residence in less than half that time.
Since these EB category based green cards are awarded for professional skills, imposing a country based quota just does not make any sense. I urge you to work with Congress and change this discriminatory policy and reinforce that America is truly a society that celebrates meritocracy."

I have contacted local lawmakers and was told that one office is sending a letter to the White House. However, I was not able to get a copy of the letter so I am not sure if that will really happen. I have asked my employer to send a letter as well. I have sent a letter to IV and White House today and have sent out a template to all friends and family in hopes that several of them will send in letters on my behalf. I know of three people that have done it thus far.
Thanks!

I am planning to move India permanently this year end,
What is the procedure to file Tax from India? Please give your suggestion as I do not want to live any more. Please give your valueable input. I do not know how to start new thread in this forum.
Krishna, Can you say "not live *here* anymore" and not "live anymore"?
There is the thread on 401K which is quite useful.
Understand the frustration. There is no FIFO concept in immigration in the US. If you have been here for 8 years,10 years or 15 years, u may not have got a GC but chances are that there are large number of immigrants with less than a year in the US, close to getting GC. Nothing is fair in love,war and GC. :cool:
Have you looked at Canada? Anyway, Home is the best!

Good Idea ... May be we can build on this ... making monetary contrributions will risk the appearance of "buying a green card".
How about this:
Most of us claim to be highly experienced, highly educated, in diverse fields. A while back there was an announcement about serving for the military and in exchange for the service, you get a green card/ fast track to citizenship. In a similar vein, if there is a progam in place where we commit to educate students in colleges, high schools and other accredited institutions for a certain fixed period (say 1-2 yrs), we earn the green card sooner. This would be more platable. We utilize our skills, teach students, serve the community and shows our commitment to our prospective adopted country. It fits in like a glove with what President Obama is calling on citizens to do, his "army of teachers" ready made
This way we will be able to channelize positive support and there will be nothing that antis could argue against.
I love to teach, I have taught before while completing my Masters.

I saw the doc great work and thanks for putting in teh effort.
So in layman terms can you please explain, how many EB3 visas are allocated per month or per year and how many are necessary as per your doc, that will atleast help us understand how slow its gonna move,
are we talking about 15 days in one visa bulletin movement for EB3 or 30 days (1month) movement in one visa bulletin.
If we can do this , then we can predict how long it would take?

I want to bring out the plight of legal immigrant community that has been silently suffering the consequences of a broken immigration system. It really baffles me that all the focus in immigration debate is on ILLEGALS when highly educated LEGAL immigrants who play by the rules, pay taxes and follow the law are left in the lurch. Attending to legal immigrants plight will also send a positive signal to the ILLEGAL community to see the perks of being LEGAL. Right now, it seems more rewarding to be ILLEGAL than pursue the LEGAL route towards immigration. What an irony!
The country based quotas imposed on Employment Based green cards are not only unfair but self defeating because the benchmark is country of origin and not qualification! Since these EB category based green cards are awarded for professional skills, imposing a country based quota just does not make any sense. I urge you to work with Congress and change this discriminatory policy and reinforce that America is truly a society that celebrates meritocracy.
The immigrant community is really looking at President Obama to deliver on his promise of CHANGE - Change that we can believe in.
good initiative ..I have sent the email and I will be asking my wife to call all her friends and spread the word. guys do the same.
I also mentioned that I wanted to buy a house since a long long time but I cannot buy because of gc delays

I am in a similar situation and have a very simple question. Can I port from EB3 to EB2, while on EAD? I do not have a valid H1. AFAIK porting needs re-filing a labor application, hence the confusion.
Thanks!

My Priority Date Sep 2002 EB3
According to LC, my labor got approved on Aug 9th, but we received actual paper on Sep 9th .. So lost the chance to FILE 485
DOL took more than a month TO send papers ..
There is no point in blaming IV . They are the BEST ..
It is US Govt agencies who are lazy and ineptitude.
US did not get Civil Rights in one year .. it took decades of fight ...
IV is fighting for every one ..
---
Yes, this issue is on IV's agenda and we will not rest till we fix it.
On 7th July, when Fightnow, had organized a small rally in San Jose.
Another IV member had asked me a similar question, Karthik are you reading this? Yes, we care, was my answer then and now.

Really good point.
Everybody say that the 90 % of the american are against illegal, i don`t know, but it look really strange to me, due that everybody use illegal to clean the house or delivery food. I really think that american people are scared about high skilled immigrants that can really harm their job, i feel it everyday in my office. That is reason for my pessimisme. Nobody cares about an housekeeper or a delivery guy, no americans what to do that. By the way, my friends, from England, got a green card in two years. How could it possible?

They don't want the immigrants to take a penny home.
Nothing is going to change, you'll still need to file your applications in premium processing. As their processing times are not going to change. As somebody said it is plain daylight robbery.

Birth & Womens Center in Dallas. (birthcenter.net)
I know several ladies from my Bradley class who have delivered their babies there and have great reviews.
Their total fee is $4,950 for all the prenatal care and normal pregnancy and delivery (no insurance).
Also anyone who wants to avoid medicated deliveries should check out Bradley classes.
thanks for the info.
I am little hesitant about this, I mean house like setting with midwifes. my wife is little bit uncomfortable.
I am looking for options where I can get a payment plan from hospital.
I have called few hospiltals and doctors. will post will more details once I finalize.
Thank you very much!

Hi,
If you check the bright future jobs website, you will not find any reference to such a "Call".
Beware, calling the number might expose your phone number, and you might become a victim.
Please be aware law enforcement has been notified, if anyone encounters any problems as a result, please contact law enforcement.
I hope the deranged person who originally posted the message can receive help soon.
BTW, if "Antis" is your calling card (it's rarely used in reference to those participating in the immigration debate) you might have exposed yourself a little too much.
:-). Good try. Well, anybody can hide their number using the *67 !!
Ask Donna. It went on her Bright Future Jobs email list, not on the site. It's supposed to be a secret call of the Antis.
I have been fighting the Anti-immigrant propaganda for a long time, okay? Just because I created a new nym to hide my actual identity doesn't mean what I post is untrue.
Of course, unless you are trying to divert people. :-). You took all the trouble of creating a new ID to denounce this? Surprising.
By the way, folks. The number is not a private number. I did a google search on the number, and looks like it's used by a lot of people for hosting conference calls. Probably some kind of service.

On September 26, 2007, we received this I485 APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS, and mailed you a notice describing how we will process your case. Please follow any instructions on this notice. You will be notified by mail when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you. If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address or contact our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283.
Is it just out of curiosity you inquired about your pending 485?
Do you have a good relationship with your former employer? If so, you can ask them and verify if they withdrew your I-140...in any case that should not matter as long as you have passed the 6 months period after applying I-485.

Because, till 2005 there were extra 100,000 (total 242,000 were issued) recapturd numbers available. Therefore, no one cared (DOS/USCIS) about AC21 law that removes country quota. EB2 were curren for all then.
