    First thing is when u have higher salary , u got nothing to worry.
    Next job tittle/description have to be similar in words not only in nature(becos USCIS officers are not tichnical folks, they just match words). Also it has to be in similar job code. This code is in the ETA* form filed during the labor phase by ur current employer.

    But you can do AC21 with EAD or H1. H1 is safer than EAD.

    The folks who strongly feel that IV should be mentioned should write an email to OH and ask him to change the wording to include IV in it.

    On a positive note, there is extra publicity for the flower campaign. On a flip side, if IV was linked to this post, we would had some more people flow into this website and possible new members and campaigners.

    Finally, as to why he didnt put IV name - being an active reader the past few days of these posts, I've my reasons to understand the possible reasons but since this thread isnt about the why or why not - I'd like to keep this thread to the point of send flower campaign and how we can make it more effective.
    Lets send emails to him and of course, in a nicely worded request to include IV and most importantly a link to IV on his website.

    The above is my own personal opinion and you have a right to agree/disagree with the same. In either case, I'd expect you to reply back in a civilized tone and refrain from any personal and/or vilification campaigns.

    EB2 and EB3 at one point were in the same boat. Now that EB2 is advancing and is way ahead of EB3, the EB3 applicants are upset and angry. Their anger is very much justified. However, their anger should not be directed towards EB2 applicants.

    As I pointed out in another post, we are all players here and we are all playing by the rules. The system is not fair. Anger should be directed towards the system and not towards EB2s.

    "hate the game, don't hate the playa....Chris Rock" is appropriate here.

    Most of the EB2s, if not all, are supportive of reform and are supportive towards EB3 friends. The anger may lead to the disruption of this support.

    We are all in this together. We all need to stay together.

    I Used their tool but sent the folllowing message

    Greetings. My name is XXXXXXXXXXXXX. I

    am a citizen of India and have been living in the United States for close
    to 7 years on a H1b visa and work as a Senior Software Consultant catering

    to various Ammerican clients and my employer is located in Irving, Texas.

    My Green Card petition was filed by my employer under the EB2 category and
    my I 140 petition has been approved, but I am unable to file for i485
    (Adjustment of Status) because visa numbers are not available. My wife is
    also on a H1b visa and is a first year resident physician at a Community
    Hospital in Brooklyn, New York on a H1b visa.
    Based on the fact that we have been law abiding tax paying legal
    immigrants, we would like to reach out to you and let you know our issues.
    Our main issue is career stagnation. Unavilability of visa number
    (retrogression) locks us up with the same employer for years together and
    does not allow us to grow careerwise and unable to make critical and life
    decisions.
    We duly understand that there is a 7% per country upper limit when
    Visa numbers are allocated and the fact that India and China has been over
    subscribed. These caps and limits are hurting us. STRIVE ACT and SKIL
    Bill have provisions to raise the cap and we would like to support these
    bills and the provisions.
    High tech and health care are sectors where highly skilled immigrants
    from all over the world are attracted to and want to contribute in the
    best ways we can to pursue our American dream. We would like to contribute
    to the growth and development of America in the best possible way. Please
    support us and help us in our cause.

    Sincerely,


    XXXXXXXXXXX
    718XXXXXXXX

    Hi there,
    this is going to be a bit complicated but I'd appreciate any thoughts (or even just the advice to go get a/which lawyer for this one)....

    Anyway, I am on an H1B right now but am going to switch jobs. My understanding is that once the new petition is filed I can start working for the second employer. I also would like to travel home during this time... So, here are my questions:

    - Can you work for 2 employers at the same time while making the switch?
    - How long does it take to file a petition (can i/my new employer do that myself)? If no, any advice on which lawyer to pick??? Anybody heard of Visa PRO?
    - Is traveling to my home country OK while filing the petition or is it better to wait until I come back?

    Thanks a lot!

    No

    hi guys,

    i bet this question must have been asked before but i couldn't find the relevant thread so i'm asking again. Apologies if its a repeat.

    I am maintaining my h1-b while my aos is pending. Last year my wife went to india while she had valid h4 (not stamped in passport) and ap documents. She did not get her visa stamped and reentered the country using the ap with no issues. He i-94 said parolled till some date, march 2009. I totally forgot about it and never renewed her ap or mine. Does it pose any kind of threat to her legal status in the us and aos?

    I am still working on h1 and she is a parolee.

    Thanks in advance fopr the responses.

    It is approximately 20 Lakh to 35 Lakh p.a. for top talent. Again, my information is anecdotal - your mileage may vary.

    I hear that the recession has hit hiring and wages in India as well. I am taking a 4-week vacation/business trip to Asia in March and can post some data when I am back.

    Any guess!!!

    If you use your EAD, your wife will need to maintain her own status like L1, H1, F1, etc. There is no dependent status on EAD (like H4 for H1).

    Following this logic only BEC cases are affected.
    I use the word "only" caughtiously because there are still a lot in BECs and if it is you it is not a statistic.

    If BECs complete processing by year end then all I140s could be issued within a few months of that.

    After BEC cases have been processed then what's the problem since PERM is workable?

    The only problems I see are:
    BEC cases -- it is unacceptable to leave them out in the cold after such a long wait.
    Abusive employers cancelling I140 before a new I140 is obtained after moving jobs.

    The extension beyond 6th year was only ever intended to allow for the labor certification backlog.

    Unfortunately the law makers acted too late and many had to leave some years ago before 7th year extensions were allowed. I hope they don't make up for that by acting too soon now (before BECs complete processing).

    If the BECs complete their job, why would there be a need for 7th year extensions?

    I am not just talking about those who have already applied or those who are stuck in BEC. I am also talking about anyone who has not yet applied and are applying now or will be applying in the future.

    I think it is like this, if you apply before hand like 6 month before your Visa expiring date your chances of getting an RFE for client letter is minimal, provided you stick to the same employer and all necessary documents like paystubs, tax pay reciept etc, is submitted.

    If you apply for Premium Processing, SURE HIT you will get RFE for the END client contract copy...

    I have got only for an year extension last Sept 2009 --[total 10 years in US--changed my H1B company on 2003] -applied on Premium processing,--I-140 approved Jun 2005, missed the July 2007 fiasco... I am planning to apply on ordinary on April 2010 again.

    So Key is do not go for Premium Processing if you could, apply 6 months before your H1B visa expires, inform the end client and vendor that you need a contract copy send it to USCIS if there is an RFE, if they cannot give you the copy for business reasons. Be Ready to reply the RFE.

    Good Luck to all, and I wish all of us to be on EAD, before this 2010 year end.

    May GOD Bless

    Clearly IV-QGA has a long ways to go before it an be featured in the 'big league'. Despite its short existence, its commendable what IV-QGA has been able to accomplish.


    =========
    National Immigration Forum: Angela Kelley, Christina DeConcini, Lynn Tramonte
    The Forum, the leading pro-immigrant advocacy group, has just expanded its lobbying arm by adding DeConcini, who was formerly with the Catholic Legal Immigration Network. The Forum “brings together strange bedfellows,” Kelley, its deputy director, said. She said groups that normally have little in common, such as the Chamber of Commerce, organized labor and the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, join to work toward a “rational, constructive immigration policy.” Tramonte is the Forum’s senior policy communications associate.

    Federation of American Immigration Reform (FAIR): Paul Egan, Brian Bilbray
    Egan is the group’s director for government relations. FAIR is seeking a moratorium on most immigration to give the country time to develop a comprehensive reform strategy. Former Rep. Bilbray (R-Calif.) is on FAIR’s board of advisers and runs the group’s congressional task force. One lobbyist said Bilbray’s “incredible access” to the House of Representatives has helped FAIR in its work on immigration reform.
    * Bilbray is competing in a special election on June 6 to replace Duke Cunningham. If this guys wins, it will surely galvanize the Anti-Immigration forces in Congress and on the Hill.

    http://www.foxnews.com/printer_friendly_story/0,3566,197579,00.html


    NumbersUSA.com: Rosemary Jenks, James Edwards
    Jenks is the in-house lobbyist for the group. She said that while NumbersUSA originally was involved in the impact of immigration on the labor market, the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, “made it clear we also need to look at security.” Edwards, who is with Olive, Edwards & Brinkman, also said that immigration is currently seen “through the lens of security.” A legislative director for former Rep. Ed Bryant (R-Tenn.), Edwards worked on immigration issues when lawmakers passed immigration reform in the 104th Congress. At the time, Bryant was a member of the House Judiciary Committee’s Immigration, Border Security and Claims Subcommittee. Edwards also co-wrote The Congressional Politics of Immigration Reform, published in 1998.

    Agricultural Coalition for Immigration Reform (ACIR): Monte Lake, Craig Regelbrugge, Sharon Hughes
    This ad hoc coalition includes more than 100 organizations with a “substantial labor need,” said co-chairman Regelbrugge, who is also the senior director of government relations for the American Nursery & Landscape Association. The group wants to ensure that agriculture employers have access to a seasonal work force to make certain the country has a “safe and secure food supply.” While individual members of the coalition pitch in, ACIR is also relying on some outside help. Lake is a partner with McGuiness Norris & Williams. The former deputy attorney general of California said that before the 2001 terrorist attacks, the group was close to achieving its goal of helping to reform immigration in a way that allowed access to seasonal workers while instituting a system of “earned immigration.” Hughes is the executive vice president of the National Council of Agricultural Employers and a key component in coordinating ACIR’s grassroots campaign.

    United to Secure America: William Crosby, Wright Andrews
    In the first half of this year, the group spent more than $600,000 in lobbying fees, including $180,000 each to Butera & Andrews, Podesta Mattoon and Timothy R Rupli & Associates. The group advocates boosting national security through allowing what it calls a “manageable number” of immigrants and non-immigrant visitors. One source praised the access of Crosby, a former GOP chief counsel on the House Rules Committee and 27-year Hill veteran who now works for the Livingston Group, as especially valuable.

    American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA): Judith Golub, Marshall Fitz
    Golub is the senior director of advocacy and public affairs for the 9,000-member group and Fitz is the associate director. AILA aims to educate Congress and the public about the benefits of an immigration policy that allows refugees and workers to enter the country.

    so, we are not out of the woods yet? its just that they (USCIS) can now say that they have gone through x number of apps... i wish they clarified this really well...
    but thanks for answering the really important question!

    Sanjay:

    Most likely you will not have to do anything further and your application will be approved when the Visa Bulletin reaches your priority date. However it will depend on how long it is before that date is reached. you may have to be fingerprinted again, as the fingerprint checks are only valid for 18 months. Also, if the wait is long enough, USCIS may want you to go for another interview to make sure you are still eligible.

    I just posted this on another thread. I'lls et up a conf call, hopefully this weekend. We need to build some momentum and meet as many lawmakers as possible.

    PS: This post pertains to seattle area congressmen. I'll post a contact list of lawmakers in the northwest region. I noticed that someone from portland als posted here.


    Folks,

    As part of the WA state chapter, we have started meeting lawmakers. We met one congressman last week, are meeting one this friday and another next week and more as appointments get scheduled. I just want to share at this point that the initial reaction was very positive. They are very approachable, and very willing to listen. They understood the pain we are going through and noted the suggestions we made and the provisions that we want them to support.

    I want to point out that although they were aware of the ongoing debate on immigration and the difference between H1B issues and GC issues, they dont fully understand the GC process and how long and how much we suffer in the process. Once they realize this, they look at it differently. The only way they will know is if we go and talk to them !!

    I request and urge everyone to take 2 mins out of their busy schedules and just call their congressmen/senators. Help the core team out. They cannot do everything themselves. IV has all the material ready on the website. All you have to do is spend 30 mins talking to the representatives about it. I am speaking from personal experience. IT GOES A LONG WAY !!

    Once we have met a couple more lawmakers, I'll put a detailed post about the takeaways.

    As of yesterday, there was a collection of $5000. We need much more than that.

    The details of contributions and fund-raising can be found at the "Why Contribute" link of the home page.

    http://www.immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=26&Itemid=25

    Everything here is transparent. Please sign up as volunteer so we can have you more involved besides receiving money. That will also build your trust and in return your volunteer work will help everyone too.
