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.
By the way, the title of this thread is of no good. Don't give such title to generate clicks, your post is not a media news site to give misleading titles to generate clicks. "Whats happening with EAD delays" would have been more appropriate.
Every discussion gravitates towards donation because at the end of the day, the reality is that there is a need to mobilize funds, to take our game to the next level.
At the same time, there is a whole bunch of immigrants waiting in the queue for 5,7,10 years, passively, just talking, who could have easily contributed $25 per month to create a momentum for us.
All this complaining about transparency (knowing or not knowing that not-for-profit organizations need to follow very strict accounting and disclosure rules), is just not productive. I would rather put my trust in a bunch of fellow immigrants who are trying to help us all collectively.
Even if nothing comes out of it, I would have tried to push my luck through this group, rather than sitting and waiting for things to change on their own.
Disclaimer: I am not a part of the core or any peripheral group of IV. I am just like everyone else, but have decided to try my bit by contributing.

Reversal Frustrates
Green-Card Applicants
By MIRIAM JORDAN
July 5, 2007; Page A2
The government's surprise offer, then abrupt reversal, of an opportunity for thousands of skilled foreign workers to obtain permanent residency in the U.S. highlights the problems of the overtaxed immigration system and the frenzy that results from a chance to apply for a green card.
The scramble has put tens of thousands of workers and their families in limbo after many of them and their employers spent thousands of dollars in hopes of securing permanent residency. It may result in a class-action lawsuit against the government by frustrated applicants.
The problem began on June 12 when the government seemed to open the door for thousands of foreign workers and their families to end the long wait to apply for a green card. That is when the State Department published a Visa Bulletin, which is a monthly notice closely watched by immigration attorneys and their clients because it determines who is eligible to file a green-card application the next month. The June bulletin announced that practically all skilled foreign workers who had been previously deemed eligible for an employer-sponsored visa could now take the final step of applying for a green card.
By law, the U.S. can issue about 140,000 employment-based green cards each year. Last year, the government fell short by about 10,000, despite the long waiting list; leftover visas cannot be rolled over to the next year. The June announcement aimed to prevent the visa slot from going to waste, according to a State Department spokeswoman.
[Green-Card Limbo]
The announcement was greeted with a mix of jubilation and panic by thousands of engineers, lab scientists and other high-skilled foreigners who had waited years for their place in line. Working ahead of a July 2 date for filing the application, intending immigrants rushed to gather documents, complete paperwork and obtain medical exams. Many of their dependents boarded planes for the U.S. to meet a requirement that all family members be present at the time of filing.
"The bulletin created a land rush among legal immigrants desperate to finalize their green-card applications," said Steve Miller, a Seattle-based immigration attorney.
Then, on July 2, the State Department issued an "update" that reversed the previous bulletin. It stated, effective immediately, there would be no further authorizations for employment-based cases. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, which processes the applications, said it would instead simply process existing applications to meet this year's quota. "We already had sufficient applications pending without new applicants...," a spokesman said.
Mike Aytes, head of domestic operations for the USCIS, said all 147,141 employment-based green cards have now been issued for the year.

Actually CIR was started by President Bush to regain hs popularity. Other than that it is complicated and tough to pass thru. Really lawmakers have to work hard f they want to pass because it is tough to satisfy all. So most of them must be cautious unless it comes up for discusson. Moderate people may try to maintain status quo. If CIR is pendng then all the immigration related items including EB relief will be attached to it(People will try to attach so that it can be delayed as much possible). If Congress starts discussion on Jan 2007 possiblity of becoming law is on May if they introduce CIR. But immigration may not be that much national importance issue for US congress. It does not matter whether an illegal immigrant will become citzen on now or 2009. Economy will not have an impact. Similarly a H1 person gets gc now or 2009 or 2011 the impact will be mnimal for US but impact will be heavy for that immigrant. Also Economy may slow down n 2007 and job demand may go down then it is tough to justify increase of H1 when joblessness starts increase.
I think EB2 will improve much better in coming months and EB3 also PD will move at least a few weeks to few months. Atleast people could extend H1 after 6 years. In 1999 and 2000 people did not have that option and some people left USA and came back after year. So to get gc was challenging atleast for 50% of people for past 10 years. Some people got this easily some time in past.

even my employer didnt allow us to file saying, if employee files, FBI will get mad thinking it has toxics in it :D :D :D
trust me thats what they told me..dunno what he thinks..:) :)
but the point is I sent my docs to my employer and I didnt include any G-28 in it..which means we signed as we prepared all docs..
Now can they attach G-28 and introduce themselves as representatives and swallow all receipts???

For 3-9 years, it is a good news.
For 10 and 10+ years, this is already laws in place in terms Social Security benefits. Hope that this does not worsen. Presently, retirement and some other benefits are available to foreign nationals such as India, if 40 points are accumulated.
Let us say I accumulate 40 points and return to India for good. Do I still get Social Security in India if -
1. I am a US Citizen living in India?
2. If I am a GC holder living in India?
3. I am neither a US citizen nor a GC holder living in India?
Any helpful links are appreciated. I have tried to calculate benefits using Social Security benefits calculator, but if you key in residence outside USA and non-citizen, it does not work...

I'm not sure about H1 after using AP. Make sure with others.
Yup, I had checked this because even I thought entering on AP invalidates H-1B, but he said that's not the case. In fact, my company still renews H-1B for my colleagues who have used AP to reenter.
Has anyone heard otherwise from a lawyer?
Thanks,
Jayant

The United States, previously in first place, continues to enjoy an excellent business environment, efficient markets and is a global centre for technology development. However, its overall competitiveness is threatened by large macroeconomic imbalances, particularly rising levels of public indebtedness associated with repeated fiscal deficits. Its relative ranking remains vulnerable to a possible disorderly adjustment of such imbalances, including historically high trade deficits

Hello,
In all the stories of INS, USCIS, DHS that I've read here, the lack of visibility, customer service and accountability seem to be the common theme.
However, I was pleasantly surprized by a call from IO a few weeks back in local office asking me for extra documents (Current employment letter as the original one was from 2007, 2007 tax returns and 2007/08 W-2).
He told me that though he had sent a letter, the letter would take a few days to reach and hence he wanted to call me up. He also told me that as my original fingerprints are expiring on 26th Feb, I should send the response as soon as possible to enable him to process the application.
Though I still don't have any extra hope that the application will be processed soon, it was nice to see a change in USCIS approach.
Hope this was not an exception to rule and we see more such behavior from USCIS that helps in clearing us from this awkward limbo situation.
They might thinking to deport you asap!!!!!!!! Just kidding!!! I dont have much hope from these guys. My finger print medical expired last year and I didn't get any letter or call.
Anyway having + Attitude and is good thing.

How is it that a question about the Bible raises so much feedback, whereas a question like "Have you ever climbed Mount Everest?" would have little or no affect.
After voting for it, I posted because I thought it didn't really have any place here, especially because of his apparent intent and implication (confirmed by viewing his other work). Seemed out of place on this secular site.
