I guess when it comes to GC processing, NOTHING is really "wrong" is it? If you get a chance to work around and beat the long lines, I guess "It's all good". Some people are lucky that they get a chance to get Labor Sub, some ppl marry the GC and some ppl like the rest of us wait in line like "honest citizens".
The REAL question is, just how many of us would have refused a good labour sub, given the present conditions, solely on the basis that "it is unfair to others"? I know i would have taken it. Reason? It's LEGAL (or used to be). Our "misfortune" (if i can use that word), is that we did not get a similar chance.
For those wondering, what I am babbling about: "Let's not look down on this guy who got his GC approved by Labour Sub, or even continuously point out that he did."
Well said, No one here is going to let go an opporturnity here, if one gets one. In my case, I did NOT go in search of one, and I did not get one. So waiting in line for years. that said, If I had got an option, I would have taken advantage of it. This guy does deserves his GC. Anyway, he/she has been here since 1997 and it is a long time too.

Hi,
am e-filing my EAD renewal and I have a couple of questions.
I used Advance Parole to re-enter US. I do not maintain my H1B status. I am on EAD.
Manner of Last Entry - Is it PAR: PAROLEE
Current Immigration Status - Is it PAR: PAROLEE
People who have e-filed in the past, please let me know.
Thanks in Advance.

Forget Identity theft. What about you bank statement showing balance, your W2, other value of assets, your children ages with pictures along with your FULL RESIDENTIAL ADDRESS / WORk ADDRESS / PHONE goes to an unknown source.
Most important information about you which can lead to a crime against you.
Its a scary situation.
So yes my concern would be personal / family safety more that barely credit history which can only do financial harm.
but probability of all the above happening is low.

I have a Ph.D and 2 M.Sc in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering. I got my H1-B and I also have been employed for 3 months now. My company policy required 3 years before sponsoring me. I do not want to wait that long to start applying. How can I tell if I am qualified for EB-2 with National interest waiver? Is that the only way for me to get GC?
I also want to mention that I have 5 proceedings papers but not journals. I also do not have any citations for my proceedings papers.
Please advice me what is the best senario for me and if I have any chance to apply for EB-2 with NIV.
Thank you

But at least they are getting GC in 6 months. I dont mind getting paid low if it means getting GC in 6 months. Anyways half our money goes in getting h1 extensions and paying lawyers so might as well get it over with by getting paid low. It is so disheartening to know how people are abusing the law and getting GC the short cut way while our stuggle starts with getting admission to f1 to doing our masters to trying to get h1 and then GC.
I have a friend who has done his MS from a top school here and his wife is a dentist but cant work for last 5 years and here is a guy whose education is a BCom and his wife's too and both are working and have got the whole thing the easy way out. Very disheartening.

Most employers pretend as if they dont know anything about retro, whereas they have employees in their own company in that situation.
Lot of people do not know what they are gettng into, a lot of new H1b applicants go look for employers promising Green Card carrots and switch jobs only to find out at a very later stage that they are retrogressed. Same with sub labor, lot of people switch companies as they get sub labor, just to find out later they cannot apply 485 due to retrogression.
A lot of people still don't know what kind of mess they are in. I tried explaining this to a lot fo people who do not understand, and they never made an attempt to understand, thats the reason why IV still has only several thousands members where those affected by retro is in lacs.
My only advice to you is "think positive", "put a lot of effort in your skill and job", "stay put with latest news", "Help IV" and be careful with employers or lawyers or body shoppers

when I reached DC on Monday. Countless "Airborne" tabs in water during the day kept me going for the lawmaker meetings(I did 95% of the talking), the reception on Monday evening and the rally.
I cannot explain the experience felt at the rally. There were infants, small children and many many strollers. I took pictures of all of them (will upload during the day).
I was thrilled to meet "macaca". "guyfromsg" was awesome with his spirit all throughout. Chandu sported dark glasses and looked awesome and he was still charged to get more people to the rally.
It is very unfortunate that many of you just squandered such a great opportunity to be part of history. The 1500 numbers floating around is not true. There were more people than that. We will know soon from IV core.
Greg Siskind sported his IV TShirt and he was proud to be taking part in the rally. He spent a lot of time with IV.
"NeedHelp" came with her 3-4 year old daughter who is quite sweet and sat at the first row at the gathering on the lawns of the US Capitol.

meaning you are also planning to marry a US citizen....nothing wrong
This trend will accelerate more in years to come.
When i first came in 1999 marrying us citizen was sort of heard of by IT folks.
by 2003 i was coming across so many cases of marrying us citizen.
among non indians its very common resulting in their PD being more recent.
In fact my friends who went for marrying citizen ...are way better placed in life.
It become so hard to marry from india now with contract jobs lasting short time and salary being so low after cut form h1b vendors. eventually teh pain will reach the point of yield.

To all:
I got my H1B stamping done for 8th year in Nov 2006. When I went to the officer, just before giving my application I told that I am a returning worker. He asked for the paystubs and I gave the original ones. He approved immediately.
I took all the documents as listed in the website as well as the vfs site.
Hope this info helps.

Isn't it a relief? if the officer calls you for interview, checks your documents and says approved but no GC till PD current? I can live happily with it for couple of years atleast without thinking of GC. The feeling of getting GC in future 100% is almost equal to having GC today. You can change jobs on AC21 without fear and use EAD and AP full force and forget about renewing H1b's

one GC for each family (3 or 4) members, instead of treating as multiple GC's.
say for a family of 4 uscis is treating it as 4 GC instead they can treat this as a single GC. which will make many people eligible for GC

Can you please share your experiences with renewal of Indian passport in US. They are asking for 3.5cm x 3.5cm photos which are not same as the regular passport size photos. The CGI Houston website mentions passport size photos as requirement in some places and 3.5cm X 3.5 cm photos in some other places. Can you please share on what you did for the photos? thanks a lot.

While it is possible to claim parents on B2 Visa as dependent, after they pass presence test, they have to include their world-wide income in the tax return.
IRS don't have time to chase, if world-wide income of parents are not reported. For that matter, many people get away without their own world-wide income. It may be risky, there was news in Indian News Papers, that now IRS has started tracking investments done in India.
But anyways, whatever I know, it is possible to claim parents on B2 Visa as dependent, after they pass presence test. They can get ITIN.
===
Another example a professor visiting in USA, when gets cash award, to claim the award (s)he has to get ITIN and gets taxed at source, even stay is for days or weeks. If his/her country has tax treaty, (s) he can recover takes paid in USA.

Hi,
If you have used the H1 approval to go out of the country and get the visa stamped and then come back in, the white I-94 given at the airport supersedes the one in the H1 approval. That is the core issue.
Regarding an earlier question, you can contact any local "international" airport - in my case, my port of entry was Detroit, but I got the correction done in Cleveland.

I don't know if I didn't understand this right but one of my friends came to U.S like 5 yrs back in 2002.
Never left the country fo far.
She came on H4 and at that time her I-94 was till Apr/2005.
She got H1 in 2004 with new I-94 till May/2007.
Got her H1 extension( with new I-94 dates.)
The I-94 she got at the port of entry expired but her employer told her it is not a problem as her H1 has a I-94 with new dates.
I know in your cases(s) you have passport expiry thing. But I guess it's still the same right. I gues your H1 will have new I-94 in it .So what is the descrepency?
Please let me know .
Thank you.

Mr. Vayalar Ravi , Minister of Overseas Indian Affairs,is coming to USA on June 27,2006. He is coming to Washington DC on July 4 to meet Indian Ambassador and Indian community. We should try to meet him personally and explain the problems we are facing. He can talk to US counterparts and do something for us.
Let us organize an event to meet him on July 4. Since It is a holiday, lot of people can meet him and chat with him.
Any comments from IV Core Team ? Can we contact the Indian Ambassador to arrange a meeting with the minister ? is it possible ?
This is a Golden opportunity !
First of all what you want honorable Minister to do. Ask him to talk to US Congress to pass the law so that we get GC faster. Let say he speaks on our behalf. All I see happening is things getting worse rather than getting better. Those who are on the other side of the table will get a point to oppose to those who are supporting us. This is what going to happen. Every provision that is supporting our cause will be opposed by the fact that it has been done under the influence of foreign Government in this case it will be Indian. Organizations like numberusa is vehemently looking for a way to prove that how all pro-immigration provisions are anti-american. So we hand over them the Jackpot.
Whole idea of involving Indian Minister looks to me like small kids involved in a fight seeking help of their parents to get the issues fixed. Here we are not dealing with neighbors kid. Lets grow up..
