Political scene and policy making is mostly based on vote and voice more then TRUE reform. Always, be it India or USA.
Immigration-Voice is primarily for legal immigrants. Even though we input substantial economic value to the society, and to the fate of all of us the small legal/skilled people immigration reform is tied to the big CIR.
What I want to propose is to talking to other lobbing groups and immigrant associations.
Irish, Spanish etc... Today in the news the Irish Lobby for Immigration Reform (ILIR) made a big show and seems like they have got lot attention. Form senator Clinton to one time Irish Kennedy all spoke for Irish and CIR.
Also, Immigration voice is primarily supported by Indians and few other people from other nationalities.
In addition, I being an Indian like to propose bringing more attention and contributions to the situation by talking to local and north American Indian associations both professional and cultural.
To name a few...
American Association of Physicians of Indian Origin
Telugu Association of North America
American Telugu Association
FOGANA - Federation of Gujarati Associations of North America
Federation of Tamil Sangams of North America etc..

Provided there is no retro . There can be following situations:
a) 250 equally distributed in Oct, Nov and Dec and the date moves 1 week at a time to 28th May in Dec 10.
b) 750 in Oct moving the date to 22nd or 28th May and then stuck there till Dec
Again depending on if USCIS does quarterly SO then in Dec dates may move to Aug 06.
I think with similar SO as FY2010 the PD will get close to July2007 by the Sep2011 VB. But whether the PDs will move ahead smoothly or in chunks having large periods of inactivity followed by 5-6 month jumps, thats something no one can predict.

Hi,
Need quick suggestion:
Company A filed for GC. Labor and I-140 was approved. I-485 was filed during July 2007.
I changed employer in June 2009; replied to RFE and filed AC21 in July 2009.
I came to know that my GC sponsring company is going to close the company soon. My current immigration attorney is suggesting that if that happens; and if INS came to know that GC sponsring company is closing down, they will revoke my I-140.
Is it true? I thought after AC21 is invoked; whatever happens to GC sponsring company, it will not impact my GC application in any way.
Please advice.

If it is new 485 filing then you don't have A#.
A# on I-140 is nothing do with your 485.

If for a moment we say USCIS has really increased the processing rate and more people are getting green cards which we see is the case. It may signal that on Oct 1st,2007 dates will move ahead of what was the scenario in May visa bulletin.
If we forget the mistake they did in July bulletin and see the brighter side that they process faster, we should hold back our applications now and wait for the scenario on Oct 1st 2007, which would be hopefully a give a good realistic forward movement in dates. Since receipt date is important we should not get emotional and send in the application. This is just a thought.
Making Current in July was anyway like a lottery which denied all calculations based on pending cases.Before getting into law suits and protests which are also needed we have to take stock of all the implications and whether we really can provide 100% to these efforts.
From the posts coming since yesterday, most of the members are agitated and it seems we fail to realize that this event itself was a miscalculation and all of us were trying to get benefit of it considering the long waits we have endured for just getting a chance to file AOS.
We also knew that even if the applications are accepted there was no way we can get our green cards for a long time. AC21 and EAD for spouse was the main aim of many applicants.
This is really a sad story of people who have sacrificed career prospects, faced family separation, made important decisions like marraige.
Hope this post makes sense and we take a step back and reconsider our actions. This is not out of fear but past experience of lawsuits explained in other posts.

Sorry cant help you on the documentation piece.
But since your I-140 is filed, you should upgrade it to PREMIUM and try to get it approved asap.
Worst case scenario - if company B is not considered successor in interest to company A, you can still use the approved I-140 to carry over your PD.

A friend of mine told me that we do not have to pay Social Security Tax while working on EAD. Does anybody know if this is true ?
That would be a huge plus in case its true.

Hello,
Can any of you throw some light on these
To my understanding, if one is maxing out 6 years of H-1B visa on Nov 30, 2009 and doesn't have a way of extending to the 7th year H-1B.Then he has to stay physically outside of USA for 1 year.
1.Does 1 year stay have to be in the home country only?
2.Can one come and visit USA for a month[June 2010] or so between Nov30,09 and Nov 30,2010.[Eg: Conference, interview]?
3.If answer is yes to 2, would one have to stay for another 1 year away from July 2010? or they can come back to US during Dec 2010, if they have a new H-1B job?
Inputs appreciated.
Thanks

Guys:
Does anyone know what is the current count on H1-B Visas left for the year 2006-07 ?
I know I may sound stupid and probably the answer is that it is already complete, but wanted to confirm.
Also, when would the next years quota become available and when can one start working at the earliest ?
Is there any other way to file for H1-B now and work..?
Thanks
Quota is already used up!
You may start applying as early as April for employment beginning in October.
Other way to file for H1B is to find a cap-exempt employer such as a non-profit.

My H1B was expired on DEC11,2009.My employer applied H1B extension in Oct 2009, i'm still waiting for Approval notice. since my I-94 expired on DEC11,2009. what is my status untill i get my H1b extension? will i be in leagal status until i get the H1 approval?
I have EAD with the same employer but not using.
Is anybody in the same situation?
thanks
Since you applied for extension before your current H1 expired, you are allowed to continue to work for 240 days from the date of H1 expiry. If your H1 is still not approved, then I believe you will have to stop working but can still be in the country till a decision has been made on your petition. Your employer could try and upgrade your pending application to premium processing so you will get to hear from USCIS within 15 days.

I got my H1B Petition approved and have been working on OPT status since August. I made a Visa appoitment for tommorow and while taking the appointment I chose the Visa Renewal category instead of a new H1B visa.
My interview is tommorow and I am not able to change or cancel the date as in Delhi it needs to be done 2 working days before.
I want to know if anyone has gone though a similar experience and what should I do?
Looking forward to your replies!
Thanks!

My company filed my 7th year H1 extension and my wife's H4 petition at the same time in Dec 2006. USCIS online case status shows received and in process for both H1 and H4.
Recently, we upgraded to premium processing. However, only the H1 case status now shows as being done under premium processing. Does that mean that only my H1 will be premium processed and not H4 even though they both were filed together. Is this normal. I am hoping both H1 and H4 will be premium processed. I know that USCIS adjudicates H4 also in premium processing for such cases as a courtesy. Just wanted to know if anyone has been under similar situation before and got only their H1 approved in premium and not H4....The whole purpose of me upgrading to PP was to get H4 approved before the H1 quota begins in April as our H1/H4 were expiring this summer and my wife's employer is filing a H1 COS petition for her in PP under the 2008 H1 quota....Didn't want to take any chance of her H1 COS getting approved without a I-94 because of her current H4 expiring in summer.
Thanks in advance.

it is my understanding that she just needs your H1 approval notice, employment letter, your pay stubs etc. I don't think she even needs her H4 approval notice for her H4 stamping. I am very sure that only your H1 related documents are needed(she needs your original H1 approval)-please check with your lawyer
Me and my wife filed H1B extension through a company. I moved to consulting after my extension is approved. The consulting company filed my H1B transfer which is approved recently. Unfortunately my employer (the consulting company I moved to) dint file for my wife's H4 extension and he told that was not needed.
My question is can my wife with the petition approved from my previous employer to get her H4 stamped in India?

I am on H1b and work for a desi consultancy company. My project with a client ended some time ago and due to bad market, I have been so far, unable to get onto another project. Now my employer is asking me to go back to my country for some time as I dont have a project in hand. I am worried that this may result in canceling of my H1b visa. However, employer is trying to assure me that he won't cancel it. I am wondering has anybody (somebody you know) been in this kind of situation. FWIW, I do have an american undergrad degree and have been living here legally and lawfully for past nine years.
