In EAD form, they are asking about previous EAD info..like which service center, what date, GRANTED or REJECTEd etc.. Now I had two EADs..one is OPT and other one I got last year. Do I have to write info for both one or just for last year?? In last year's form, I wrote info about my OPT. But what now?
Please use the I-485 based OPT info and not the student based
make sure the A # starts with 0
Thx

Hello Guys,
I need your advice here. Six month ago i joined one of the many blood suckers -Desi cosulting company in new jersey. As you all know, they ask me to sign their contract in which its mention that if i leave their company before 1 year then i need to pay them 15k. Thy also charge me 3k for my H1-B which i am still paying everymonth from my paycheck and we have 70/30. In just six months i am so much fed up with them. These people are so rude...always show their arrogance over phone. I have no libarity to find job by myself. They always looking for higher pay rate sp that their big money tummy get filled up.and i also feel that they didnt told me the right pay rate for the project i am working on right now.
I really want to leave them, Even before 12 months. Is there any importance of that contract letter i signed with them?. Can they Sue me? What are my options? Please suggest me.....i am in stress.
Thnx
Follow these steps.
I assume you have proof that you paid for H1B expenses.
Silently transfer your H1 to a new employer.( Your current employer won't even know that)
If they threaten you with the contract, tell them you will report them to DOL.
It is illegal for employer to ask money for H1B expenses.
Hope this helps.

Attention all EB2 and EB3 folks who have I-485 pending at USCIS-
Currently AILA is reporting that there are two bills pending for Employment-Visa Recapture.
1.Reuniting Families Act (S. 1085) Introduced in the Senate(*)
2. Senate Judiciary Committee to Hold a Hearing on the Uniting American Families Act(**)
Reference-(*)(**) www.aila.org/
The S.1085 in the US Senate caters to specifically recapturing visa numbers for employment based category; i.e. ALL lost visas from 1997-2007 in the employment based category.
Also to remember is that re-captured employment based visas can only be used in the employment category. They CANNOT be used; repeat CANNOT be used in the Family category; however the vice-versa is true; i.e. unused Family Visas can be used in the employment category as happened last year 2008.
The second bill Uniting American Families Act is in the US House. Though the intent of this bill is not the same as the senate bill S.1085 noted above; an amendment can be made to make it the same. Currently, they are scheduling a House hearing on 3rd. June, 2009 for that bill.
We need HIGH level of action on the above two bills from IV Core and the Community; because of two reasons-
1. Adminstration has CHANGED; so one cannot assume that things which happened in past years will be the same. i.e. No action will be taken by lawmakers on the Immigration front. Remember it is the Democrats and we are back in the good Clinton year politics (which passed AC-21).
2. We need our Green Cards soon. India is the ONLY nation where 80% of EB folks are waiting for two years or more after I-485 submission, given security checkas and pre-processing has already been made for applications pending for two years.
Thanks,
WeldonSprings.

Thanks for your advise and i agree with your thoughts.
I thought of leaving this company several times, but I am working in this company for 6 years and the only company I worked after coming to USA. I invested so much for this company, like working beyond work hours, working in the weekends, making up the project deadlines for the incompetitive colleagues etc. etc. and now just waiting for my Green Card. There were so many times I thought if I get my Green Card I am going to leave this moment. Years passing by and with this retrogression thing, there is very little hope of getting it soon...
The positive thing is, my direct supervisor is very nice and I can voice my opinion and she understands me and completely supports me. I am just praying god that I should keep working for her till I get the GC.
I would only say "Hang On", or move on if you can. A lot of people in same situations, never want to discuss issues openly.
Patience does help, and maybe all the good is stored for future.
Most important is how you deal with stress associated with racial slurs, difference in treatment, and all the above issues. This has direct impact on health and many people in these conditions are victims of stress.
The h1b - GC situation is well known to everyone and they know you are indentured, some managers are called problem solvers (they pretend to hear ur voice, help you from their side and get the work done and try to ease pressure off you if they have an option), whereas some managers are called problem creators (they add additional pressure on you and make u miserable so that they get the work done). The reason companies support their American workers who involve in racial slurs is to avoid issues. It is easy to kick you out and blame you rather than catering to ur problem.

C mon guys.. Cant you see that this h1techslave dude is just chewing your energy out and digressing the whole agenda here? Looks like one of those guys who is disgruntled in the past and now acting smart. Why are you responding?
In 2 separate responses I have volunteered to talk with him and requested to send his info. No repsonse yet but he has all the time in the world to post on the forums, compare India/US/Canada.. **CK Some other members rallied behind him saying that they can just read fine with out bold/red.
Mods,
We have discussed enough about IN/US RS/USD what ever under the roof.
Enough. Please close this thread.

I like your word: "guestimate" (Guess + Estimate) i.e. tukka (hindi word)
Well, I don't think I am at the end of line of 300,000 people. There must be lots and lots of people whose priority date is after April 2004 might have filed. This includes 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007.
So I think 3 years is intelligent guess. But who knows I am just trying to make myself happy and trying to stay positive.

Guess What from NOV - 08 to July 09, the VB will have older Cut off dates and after July 09 DOS will open the flood gate and move the cutoff of to 2007 or even 2008.
USCIS will start approve the cases with later PD's and the leave the older PD's on the air.
It is a mess. I don't have any trust in USCIS
I understand dude, there is no fairness in the system. My PD is close to yours. I couldn�t apply in July and applied to August, as if that RD was not enough, they moved my case from TSC to NSC and reset the RD to Oct. Not only are they not following PDs, they are throwing away RDs according to their whims and fancies� I have lost faith in the system.

I have many times pondered on the strength/power of dollar value and I feel apart from factors like globalization/petro dollars most important factor is America's politics.
No matter who is in the White House, no matter what their domestic politics are, no matter what their agreement(s)/disagreement(s) are they follow a well established strategic template on the International arena always keeping their focus on fortifying their super power status/dollar strength.
Very fact that dollar value is not as low as it should be amidst the current crisis shows the value that dollar is enjoying(when compared to the value of the currencies of other economies that didn't actually collapse as did American economy) may not be the real value but a strategised value.
Watch this video on globalization (if you have not already watched as it was shared on this forum twice) though it's a bit long and seems like exaggeration at few spots(speaker himself says he may be exaggerating or something like that..) it helps one understand few things.
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4343898391323537541&ei=u6taSeqqN4H6qgK7k9WsBA&q=globalization+dollar+&hl=en
Also few facts from this video and some of those youtube videos on terrorism kind of throw another perspective to Iraq war and on the possible Iran strategy.
But as per the disintegration of America I agree with you...it just shows how some of those guys are still kind of smarting from the disintegration of the U.S.S.R and pepping themselves with such stories.
This is a bunch of baloney.
The US has the most trusted currency int he world(sometimes I wonder why, but the fact is it remains such or else its value should rationally be a lot lower right now).

Bottom line:
If Job opening is for Software Engineer with BS with 2 y experience, it will go with EB3 no matter you have MS and 10 year experience.
....
Yes, that is perfectly correct. If an employer needed somebody with BS and 2 yrs exeperience, and no US person applied. You (with a BS and 2 yrs experience) applied. Employer filed your I-140, which is approved. Now you wait for 4 years, and in the meantime you get your MS. Technically, you are now overqualified for the position, and employer may decide even not to consider you any more (leave alone upgrading to EB2). Note that entire process is for future employment after you get your GC, until then if you are working, you are working as a guest worker.

The summary in OpenCongress.org says below: that means it is only for family based gc not employmement based gc?? where can we read full info??
"
This legislation would reform the family-based immigration system and speed up the process for family members of legal immigrants to secure visas. Specifically, it would reclassify spouses and children of legal immigrants as immediate relatives, raise the per-country family-sponsored immigration limits from 7 percent to 10 percent of total admissions, recapture visas that went unused in previous years due to bureaucratic errors, allow widows and spouses to remain eligible for visas after the death of a sponsoring family member, and more.

Hopefully they might be waiting to approve both AP and 485 together. (I am thinking they might have taken the amount on AP already)
Take an info pass appointment to get more details if it is close to you.
Well I jumped a little too early :) and opened a SR in July. The following is the response I received:
================================================== ========
The status of this service request is:
The Service is waiting for VISA availability. Once a VISA becomes available allow additional time for your application to be reviewed by an Officer and you will be notified as soon as a decision is made
================================================== ========
It is less than 60 days old status now and hence cant open a SR for 1.5 months :)
BTW, it has been over 2.5 months now and my AP hasnt been approved yet :mad:

If 140 is approved and dates are current most likely you will get one year extension...But sure you will get H1B extension.
I think its If pending...and labor approved 365 days before start date. I still need to check with my attorney. Also even if 140 is approved and dates are current i would not be able to extend.
