[QUOTE=h1techSlave;320723]wasn't the flower campaign an 'effort by IV'?
Any way, I think you don't need IV's (for that matter any organization's support) to file a law suit. If you think USCIS is breaking the law, you can file a law suit with the help of a lawyer. A couple of $100 is all that would cost you.
It is silly to think filing lawsuit will cost $100. If I could do it myself I would have done it already. Filing potential successful lawsuit requires successful attorney to prove out a point. They are familiar with laws and their interpretation. They are good at explaining those interpretations. They do it day in and out. My job is not to file is lawsuit. I leave that to pros.
Somebody will be foolish to think I don't IV. I need IV now more than ever. IV has establisehd a base and some sense of direction of where to go. Why would I want to start myself and re invent this wheel? IV has base with support of members, access to lawyers, voice in the world where I am just a pawn etc.

I wasn't moral policing, I was just laying out the legal stand that anybody can have under these circumstances. I am sure that the so called "Desi shop owner" is not so dumb to so flagrantly violate the law when his employee is going by the book, unless the employee is seriously gullible.
I agree it is illegal for employer to charge for H1B, and of course the employer is in violation of the law, but one needs to ascertain that the employee is not a willful accessory to that violation.
sc3, your argument is totally wrong. The employer has violated the H1B rules and most of the employees who come from India for the first time may not know that its illegal to foot the charge for H1b.
Its like telling a woman not to complain to the authorities about the abusive husband, if the husband beats her up, stating that she know it was wrong and so she is party to the wrong doing. Common man!!!
If you are stuck and are exploited, there are protections in Law that would not come after you. There are immunities that apply.
H1B guy, the best course of action for you, in my opinion:
1) consult an attorney.
2) gather as much evidence as possible related to the charging for H1B.
3) find another project.
4) Try to record the conversation between you and your employer. Most state allow to one party consent except California, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Washington.
You don't have to be afraid of a company that is doing business unethically.
Good Luck!!!

I guess you are speaking like Tom Peters. But in the end, it all depends on where one wants to be and what is the world view of someone. If one thinks that just because someone is a manager over others, that makes that someone better and more successful than others, and if most B- students manage A+ students (which is fuzzy maths), yes, in that case it maybe that its better to get a B- grade than A+, and there is no need to go to business school either. If the world view and the objective is not just to become a manager or make 100K instead of 120K, but actually do something worthwhile in every stage of your life, rather than just having an objective of becoming a manager, maybe its about learning a language and words, then why not. Strong vocabulary is the first stage to clear expression and clear expression is the corner stone of a successful and satisfying career, including bring a manager. I don't see anything wrong with learning more words, or loving parents or obedient children. Everyone has a different age in their life when we revolt against the environment, just to break free. Its not necessary that one must continue to revolt an entire lifetime to be creative or be better than others. Bill Gates or Steve jobs never wanted to become just managers, they wanted to re-invent the future. College dropouts, but successful. But how many Gates and Jobs do we have? I guess there is no clear definition of success and different people gauge success differently, but most people, more so in this crowd on this forum, relate success to level of education/university (US masters or Bachelors from India), and title at work place. But maybe the key is not how others gauge your success, but how you gauge yourself. Maybe you have set your eyes on squeezing most number of lemons or maybe being fastest eater of a water melon, or climbing on top of rhinoceros back, whatever it is, if you have done it and you feel satisfied, you will see yourself as successful. So whatever is the definition of success, whatever is anybody's opinion or world-view, the fact is, these kids did well with the goal they had set for themselves. And if that is how they feel satisfied with their hard work, they are successful. The fact that there were so many other contestants wanting to prove that they were better than others, and they weren't, makes it a recognizable achievement. Its that simple.

My personal opinion buying a house =a h1b visa 10 years must have/keep job. This will be different for dual income folks.

Hey Guys,
I had same suitation 2 years back. I have been to Regional DMV in Trenton they refused and then I went to Edison DMV my DL renewd for 3 months with receipt #. The Lady at desk shown me the copy of some Rule has a provison that DL can be renew based on Receipt# with employer letter.Once we get the approval we have to go DMV and renew again based on new i94date.
here are the step to follow.
1) Go to Edison DMV near Pathmark Complex( i think its middlesex complex).
2) Get a letter from Employer saying that ur been with so and so years and filed h1 extension with receipt#. ( Orginal Letter from Employer not Xerox copy). They will take the letter.
3)Orginal Recepit showing proof of H1 extension and take a couple of Xerox copies they may take one of them.
4) Passport (Orginal just in case if they ask u)
5) SSN( Orginal Just in case if they ask u).
Good Luck guys

Everyone knows that King will keep adding ammendments, the only way this bill can pass todays hurdle is if they have some kind of a back room deal where King gets to show he is against the bill but allows a vote towards the end. The fact that he was able to bring up so many ammendments shows that the prior negotiations failed or did not occur. Most of the grunt/real work (deal making) is off the camera, on camera they just pander to their crowds.
King will, as usual, will come up with alot of amendments again. By the way, they have to finish with the horse bill and then they will come to our bill and then they have to finish the nurse bill. All the bills along with the Mr.Kings amendements have to be done in 2hrs because it starts at 3PM and ends at 5PM.

Most people has very misconception about "parole". It is not a free/flexible travel document like visa. As a AOS applicant, one should not leave US till it is approved/denied. One MUST present in US during AOS. The parole is only for any emergency purpose; which is similar to prisioners. As USCIS is flexible, in approving the AP, the people don't realize the travel limitation of AP. They are travelling on AP for vatation/fun etc.. As per law, the AP is not intended for it. The CBP officer was right in asking the legitimacy of the travel. The AP document clearly says it is based on "humanitation" admission to retrun after an emergency travel.
That's correct, but what is one suppose to do when it takes years to get a green card. As someone mentioned earlier, the reality does not match the intent for the law.

gc101, if you are not able to get married before you you file your I485 (by Aug 17th).
One of my friend asked Shiela Murthy and she said that in order to be able to add my spouse , I would have HAD to get married before July 31st (which I couldn't anyway), because, then, only I/we will be eligible to add my spouse.
Also, I sent in the papers for my I-485 last night. Now, hoping to god that there is an RFE on this and some kind of delay.
Thank you,
gc101.

I was very disappointed at infopass five months ago for 140. The person did not even know the difference between EB2 and EB3. So, I am reluctant to waste any further time. My job keeps me traveling out of town 3 days a week.
Fingerprinting for my EAD was in June08, spouse and daughter in Sep07. Is there a separate Biometrics required for 485? How do I find out about NC clearance? Thanks for your help.
Five months is a long time and immigration officers keep changing. Take multiple infopass apts.
If it amounts to misusing it, to hell with it. I got mine my status update via infopass. The first time the IO was curt initially but said he was ok with giving out NC status update as they don't publish it online.

By March 2007, and using that same calculation, USCIS had a backlog of 1,275,795. (page 11)
In last year’s annual report (at pp. 6-11), the Ombudsman analyzed USCIS’ redefinition of its backlog. That analysis is not repeated here, as the backlog redefinition is unchanged. The current definition continues to consider “backlogged” only the cases pending after subtracting those cases not yet ripe for adjudication, “where even if the application or petition were approved today, a benefit could not be conferred for months or years to come.
[Unripe cases are] excluded from the number of cases in the backlog but remain in the pending.”
Pending Cases Not Included in "Backlog" is 1,316,740 (Fig 1, 2nd column, page 14)
Total Pending = Backlogged + Unripe = 1,275,795 (page 11) + 1,316,740 (Figure 1, page 14) = 2,592,535 (as of March 2007)
So as per USCIS a total of 600,000 applications were pending until June. We can add another 600,000 for july-aug... total now 1.2 Million
Firstly, it is not possible that pending = backlogged + unripe = 600K because there were 2.5M+ pending cases (as explained above) in March 2007. Thus, 600K should be pending EB cases or total backlogged cases.
Secondly, it is unlikely (although possible) that there are 600K pending EB cases because this means that there are 2M family cases.
Thirdly, it is not possible to have 600K total backlogged (= EB + Family + ...) as explained in previous post. Thus, assume 400K (out of 1.3M+) unripe EB cases also. So EB total becomes 1.6M.
Fourthly, consider cases stuck in labor after Aug 17 2007.

Project_A - Still waiting for your reply. Appreciate your quick reply.
Thanks for prompt reply.
I mean Did you earned your MS after 3 year degree from India? In short Does ISU offer MS for 30 credits for person having 3 year degree from India?
I think If any Univercity needs total X credits to finish US MS then that univercity counts How many credits (Y) one has earned from his past education. So X-Y gives how many more need to earned to finish MS.

SVN,
this poll is a good idea to understand what most of the members expect from CORE. I for one am looking for any updates about (1) new bills being proposed that we can support - calls, faxes etc and (2) any infomation that can help to "predict" whats happening with USCIS efforts to use all visa # (yeah, sorry.. had to use predict and USCIS in same sentence) (3) updates on efforts towards FOIA, country caps remoal, capture of unused #s, .... and anything and everything you can throw at me about immigration...
but I also understand that most of these lobbying efforts are done in the back ground and its not good idea to share anything in these times. who knows, may be there is an anti-immigrant lurking around (ofcourse paying $$ to become Donor, become senior member whatever) to get inside information. I would rather trust the CORE to do their work and give me directions when they see fit.. like meeting local senators etc..
transparancy is good as long as it doesn't hurt the cause. I agree with the fact that we pooled $10K in March for FOIA and core gave the game plan and now everyone who contributed wants to know. fine. but you can't expect core to have a goal a month just to get contributions, this is a grass-roots organization and any highly skilled legal immigrant should be able to donate $25 without waiting for updates every week.. I don't think asking updates every week because you contributed $25 or $50 is fair.. just my thoughts..

Gurus,
Need your valuable advice on this serious issue. Involved in shoplifting case, got arrested and plead guilty. Served the community service, and paid fine. Got the �Court Disposition Document� which states that I am all clear. My status is I-485 pending and have EAD, AP documents.
1. Is it safe to travel to India and come back on AP?
2. What are the possible chances that visa officer may not let me into the USA?
3. Do I need to carry any letters from my criminal attorney explaining the situation?
4. Any one in similar situation, please update me on this?
5. Please list of documents I need to carry during my travel
Please reply and post your valuable opinions/suggestions/advices.
Appreciate all your inputs.
Have a nice day!!!
Thank you,
Sahaayam.

Think twice before you post something on the forum, IV is a volunteer organization and core members are spending their valuable time to do something good for all of us.
If you think items need to be prioritized, share your thoughts, work with core team, post some analysis which makes sense, etc.
-SR
I am suprprised if IV is working towards abiltiy to file 485 and hard country limit...Just want to know how IV is working towards these 2 items...
If any of these two wont show out in coming bill,..then I would say goodbye to IV..because all other items in bill were there without IV;s interaction....
Can somebody calrify if these options will anyway include in this bill..by means of ammendements...
