Chandu, here I found the LINK (http://www.murthy.com/news/n_porret.html)
"When explaining the risk of potentially stricter AC21 regulations to I-485 applicants, we are frequently asked, "If I change jobs under AC21 and the regulations are released after that, they won't apply to me, right?" Unfortunately, this is not correct. While it is not possible to predict the content or effective date of any future regulations, they will likely apply at the time of adjudicating the I-485 application, and not just when the job change occurs. In a hypothetical example, if new regulations were to limit the percentage of acceptable salary difference, or prevent multiple portings, the officer adjudicating the I-485 could decide that the job change violates the regulations, even if the change occurred months or years before the new regulations were issued."
This is not new, it has been there for a while and almost everyone who googled AC21 would have read Murthy's page.
Whatever Murthy has mentioned is her opinion. Aytes memo has not been more stricter than Yates memo but has been more clear.
So lets continue to send letters

Dear IVans,
Now that the SEP VB is out, what does this indicate in terms of
- future VBs
- visa availability in the coming months
- awareness about visa wastage
- dates becoming current for most EB categories
- light at the end of tunnel for most of us
- USCIS efficiencies
Pls share your thoughts. Thanks!
We will know for sure after Sep 30. If they don't waste any visas then it is a good sign.
But if they do waste visas, inspite of all the leeway, requests, advise, whatever they have been given, then God help us.

Hello Gurus,
My I-140 was recently approved. 140-485 filed concurently in July 2007. I have a new job offer and plan to use AC21. However I am worried because the wages at new job would be significantly higher than the old job. There are two reasons for the big difference
1-Desi employer v/s corporate employer
2-Dallas v/s New York
Any comments from people who have faced similar situation will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
usually wage difference is not something on which your GC can be denied, but very large descripancy can raise questions.

Thanks,

Could you give what is the current status of your case and what you did? did you get new evaluation from any one? If so, could you share the info. I have a similar situation.
You can email me the details to gcperm@gmail.com
thanks in advance.

Would request you to elaborate a bit.
Note that I am not using either my EAD or my AP. All I am using is H1-B and my Canadian Passport to enter and leave US. Most people on the Canadian US border to that.
Also, I commute to US everyday to work, which is less than an interval of 12 hours.
Your input is greatly appreciate. Thank you.
Using H1-B or AP does not make a difference. Filing I-485 implies that you have a residence here in the US.
Having said that, typically, trips outside US that lasts less than 24 hours are not counted. That way, daily trips could be OK. However, may I ask, where do you spend your weekend?
It comes down to this question. Are you residing in US? The burden of proof is on beneficiary (I-485 applicant).
I would suggest that you should consider getting second opinion from a reputed attorney.
Hope that helps.

Sorry typo Labor date should be 8/13/2003
Your Labor Approval date is 8/13/2007 and you had already applied for 485 on June 29th, how is that possible?

If you want to elicit a response on retrogression, then you have to call their office and ask to speak with the person that deals with immigration issues and policy.
Or you can seek an appointment with that person and see what they have to say about this. Writing a letter will get you a generic form-letter response from a junior staffer whose job is to pick one of the 25 form-letter responses based on issue (Iraq, healthcare, immigration, veteran's affairs, crime, gun-control, abortion, judicial appointments, taxes, etc. etc. etc.) and slap your name/address and stick a postage stamp and mail it.
So, if you want to talk about immigration with them, call their office. Talk on phone or seek and appointment and meet them to elicit their position and educate them on retrogression.

It is normal and healthy to (dis)agree as long as
1. comment is related to topic,
2. tone is civil and respectful, and
3. people don't forget the big picture.
Please generate the above slightly modified reminder when a member posts in a forum.
Hope it has some effect. Thanks Paskal!

I saw a similar thread in one of the anti-immigration forums.
It was about members of immigration voice using filthy language in public forums. Don�t remember the exact words but it read something like �is this kind of third world behavior we get by bringing in so-called HIGHLY SKILLED immigrants to USA?�

My PD is 10/04. My I 485 was received on 7/2/07 in TSC. I am the primary applicant and my case was transfered to NSC in 8/07 while the I485 of my spouse remained with TSC. I have no LUD on my case since 11/07 but her case was transfered to NBC for standard interview. She lives in a deifferent state as she is studying and I thought that may be they want to make sure that we are married (as has been with many other cases). I was hoping that may be they will also send my case for interview as is usual for other people but having our cases in 2 different service centers has made it complicated. Will wait and see.

Dude - think practically. If the billing rate that the company is going to get from the client is $70/hr and they keep only $5/hr then they have to give him $65/hr. If they have to keep him on the payroll, they will have to pay 7.45% in payroll tax, which is employer's portion of Social Security Tax and Medicare (reducing their rate from $70 to $65.1575). This means they will be making 15.75 cents/ hr (translates to $315 for a year assuming that you work for 2000 hrs - the remaining 80 hrs go in holidays - for which they may or may not pay). Even if they are outsourcing payroll, do you think that it will cost them less than $315 a year to pay him? even if it costs $0 - who would be willing to keep you on their payroll to make only $315 a year? Would you? and if you take unemployment insurance and liability insurance into account, the company would make a loss. If you owned a company would you follow this business model? If you are - you might as well just give your money for free to all your employees.
The only way you can get a company to keep $5/ hr and give you the rest is if you agree to a 1099 (and you cannot do that on a H1B - you need to use EAD for that). On a 1099 - there are other tax implications - now you have to pay both your share and the employer share of payroll tax (14.9%). And now since you are an independent consultant (which is what a 1099 is), you have to get your own Liability Insurance. To prevent people from suing you, you will need to form a LLC or some other type of corporation. You might want to get a good CPA to setup your company so that you can setup the right kind of company to benefit from the right tax deductions.
There is nothing wrong in making more money - just like you want more money, the corporations are out there to make money too. No one is in the business for charity. As long as the relationship between employee and employer is symbiotic, all is good. Once the equation changes, it is either time for the employee to say good bye to the employer or for the employer to off-load the employee from the corporate bus.
I have seen many posts in this forum complaining of "blood-sucking" employers and how they exploit employees. To me, that is the same as:
- programmer's guild complaining about us stealing their jobs or
- people losing their home and blaming the banks "for not disclosing terms"
- anyone who is blaming anyone else for their troubles
If you are being exploited, it is because you are willing to be exploited. Don't blame the employer. Blame yourself. If you don't want to pack your bags and go home when you lose a job and cannot get another one, don't blame the employer and tell others that they are "sucking your blood". Everyone is here to make money.
I understand what you meant..i forgot to mention in my post that if i expect the employer to keep 5/- only then i will take care of running payroll(means pay ADP to run payroll). I will pay employer to keep my h1b status.
I do understand there are expenses incurred on the employer side too.
Also i will work with the vendor on EAD but on W2. So no worries about liability insurance. But thanks for your informative post. I need strong information like you gave so that i dont take a wrong step..

Hi Maverick,
I applied in EB1 a year ago which was denied and appeal pending since 10 months. I am loosing hopes as even appeal cases are not processed in time. Atleast in desh, you can get it done quicker through other means !!!!. What I meant is ...INDIA has also lot of immigrants coming from neighbouring coutries but they get most of the benefits in time rather like us in US.
Contributions : $500

EB2 is for advanced degree with exceptional ability.
3 year degree is not a advanced degree. (Here will consider as 3 year college studies- may be comparable to an associate degree or greater)
Diploma is not considered for GC. It is useful for H1B.
Try in EB3. Still not give 100% guarentee.
They need 4 year single source education/degree, for US equivalent.
My friend with 3 year degree + 1 year B.ED degree + 2 year MSc denied for EB2 for education. Evaluation done with most advanced evaluator. Still denied, now on appeal with AAO. Even with 6 year total university studies not accepted. How they accept your 3 year degree.
USCIS refers to EDGE database. It is not equate 3 year with US bachelor degree.
It equate 3+2 Indian degree (not diploma) to US 4 year degree.

IV is the only group that is trying something for EB gc's!!! If you don't agree with IV mission statement - least you can do is SHUT UP! If you have other selfish agenda's take them some place else... don't use IV as a platform to segregate a group.
(In my personal opinion... IV should BAN anyone who suggests anything that breaks this group down! Enough is ENOUGH!)
____________________________
Mission Statement
The mission of Immigration Voice is to organize grassroots efforts and resources to solve several problems in the employment based green card process including (a) delays due to Retrogression (visa number unavailability for certain employment-based categories) (b) delays due to USCIS processing backlogs and (c) delays due to Labor Certification backlogs. We will work to remove these and other flaws by supporting changes to immigration law for high-skilled legal employment-based immigrants. High-skilled legal immigrants strengthen the United States' economy and help maintain American technological superiority.
_____________________________
P.S sorry for the rant - but some of the threads are really disappointing... EB2 vs EB3, Masters vs Non-masters....
It is very disappointing to see the division among the IV members, We need to look for a long term solution rather than fighting for individual short term solution

Cool down dude, I can understand OPs frustrations, I am in same boat and see similar cases around, not that ead or ap is anything great, just that someone who applied before feels rejected seeing TSC giving out eads like cookies:)
sksatmt sounds like ramhs..same tone of selfishness
I wish all I-485 filers should get there receipt , EAD and AP as well as Final GC as soon as possible.
