What's is Frist's motive in trying to trip the McCain - Kennedy or Specter's Markup? What's his point?
Looks like in Congress, each senior senator is a leader of his own and don't tolerate or cannot see eye to eye on more serious work of fellow senators or congressman. The idea is to trip the whole effort to treat illegal immigrants as humans. In Frist and its ilk's opinion, they want the services of illegal (and legal) immigrants, but this great country doesn't want to give any benefits to the illegal aliens in return. It's is so farcical, only the feudal minded Frists' can do it. Many in this country want 'closure' for this and 'closure' for that, but they deny all relief to these illegal aliens. Our goal of relief from retrogression and to increase visa numbers is unfortunately tied to such 'comprehensive bills'.
I want users of this forum to think about it, ruminate on it and write letters to law makers, newspapers etc.

like everything else CHC will block this too...they want to put illegals ahead of everyone else....
It is not just they - but the industries who employ them and depend on them .As much as we may want to call them illegals - they are a part of economy and will continue to be as long as their employers continue to hire them at lower wages to boost their profits.

Actually the SU-30MKI beat both the F-15 and Euro fighter in training with the US and RAF, and is developed jointly by HAL.
Eurofighter has also invited India to partner in its development
India has so good grip on Russian & European Aviation technology (I got opportunity to be a part of MIG s and Jaguar upgrades for several versions in IAF &HAL).
In fact India is already involved into actual development & reselling of Russian MiG version air crafts to some third world countries after Russian collapse.
Inherently Russia always carry the base line fundamentals forward to newer technologies. By already having good expertise on those,
It perfectly makes sense from India's point of view to go with SU 30 and Euro fighters compared to F versions.
Immigration - It may not have any impact on immigration even if it is, what difference it makes after loosing so much of precious time in waiting already.

Questions for everyone to research and post the answers------
........
-- Is there anywhere in the law, memo or rulebook that says 6 month employment is needed after getting green card.
There is no such law that specifies any duration one has to be employed by GC (or AC-21) employer. Period.
However, there is a twist to it. As per law, the beneficiary MUST have intent to work for GC employer at the time of filing of I-485 and intent to work for AC-21 employer if invoking AC-21. However, this intent is to start work AFTER getting green card. The intent is subject to change, too.
By working for the employer for some duration, it is easier to demonstrate that person has intent to work for the employer for the full time job offered. This duration is not written in stone, and every lawyer interprets differently. For me (and this for just me), 90 days should be a safe duration, since it has been tested in courts that 90 days a long enough time when intent of the person can change. (This is known as 30-60-90 day intent rule). This is why lawyers usually advise to wait for 90 days when a person on single intent non-immigrant visa (such as B1 or F1) wants to file for I-130/I-140 and/or I-485.

Thanks for the great suggestions!
When I was trying to file in EB-2, this was the first question that I asked me lawyer -- No matter what, I do not want to get my pending EB-3 case to get in trouble. His answer was -- These two are going to be totally isolated cases. A person can have multiple pending green card applications. Heck, one can have one application in EB category and the second one in FB category. Having two cases together in EB category is fine and the outcome of EB-2 case at any stage would not effect EB-3 case at all. (Again, if USCIS finds that you are in some sort of fraud then it is all together a different case).
What you should not do (coming from lawyer) is do not file two sets of I-485. That is going to screw up your case.
Another suggestion that lawyer gave me and I did not follow is -- Let us say your EB-3 I-140 is pending and you and your wife have EAD and AP. When you start a new EB-2 process, during the I-140 stage, take CP route (Counselor Processing). This is best of both the worlds. You have EAD and AP from EB-3 petition and you are requesting for CP for your EB-2 application. As soon as your dates become current, you will be notified to go to your home country US embassy. Go there with family, get everything done and come back to the US with GC. If S*H*I*T happens there (Which is rate), come back with AP (derived from EB-3 application) and you are back to where you were. By doing this, you just eliminated two things -
1. Interfile is a tricky process. If you could avoid it, avoid it.
2. When dates become current, US embassy would surely look in your case. That process is far better than USCIS + I-485.
Negative point of this route is - you need to make a trip to your home country on a short notice.
Once again, good luck to you all. Just, do not do anything illegal to get GC. Do whatever is permissible under the law and do not even believe your lawyer. Do your own homework.

EB2, India, PD-oct 2003, RD-June 2007, I485- May 1st 2008.
o Nothing materially and noticeably. A minor nuisance out of the way.
- What did you do on the day you received it?
o Was glad but no celebration.
- How did the long wait upset your life?
o Yes for a while. But the entire episode changed my outlook and showed me a different perspective. After being frustrated for a while I realized I should not called myself �skilled� if I cannot navigate the rather simple green card mess. People are successful despite extraordinary physical handicaps and here I was restraining myself under the simple excuse of GC. I realized that I had to and could create oppurtunities for myself, without GC and without being in the US. Fortunately at that very time I got my EAD (June 2007). I gave myself a hard limit of 1 year and if GC did not materialize in a year I would ditch the effort and move to plan B. By april this year I began taking steps towards a change of job. My prospective job title was going were different but I was willing to risk the GC. Now I was wishing I should not get a GC since I would need to shelve plan B for 6 months. And suddenly on May 1st I got the GC, just when I did not want it!
- How did immigrationvoice help you during this long wait?
o Tremendously. When GC was important to me, it gave me a platform where I could act to make a change. I haven�t been active but just contributed a couple of hundred dollars to the cause.
- Would you like to continue your support to immigration voice and help others waiting?
o No, the cause has long ceased to be important to me.
- Any advice for everyone?
o Don�t create impediments for yourself by hanging onto GC and getting frustrated. Move on, there is plenty of good life outside clutches of GC!
Good luck to all, with or without GC life will work out good for you and your families!!

Guys,
I know ROW country may not like this thread, but look at EB-3 India or China, put yourself in our shoes and than you may realize how unfair this country is. In this unprecedented financial turmoil, I feel there are very remote chances for CIR or any package which increase immigration etc would pass, I am taking this initiative to gather as many people I can and go to washington. Again this is not an IV effort. If you are with me , you can spare some time or few days in Washington, please PM me. our sole agenda is bring a 2 line bill to remove country quota...

Do you happen to know who used your labor certification? If you have a copy of the LC and I-140, inform the DOL /USCIS that someone has used your LC and I-140 without your knowledge. I'd like to believe that USCIS will take note of this and will deny the application of the person who used your LC and I-140. Your employer will be in deep trouble because of what he has done. USCIS may investigate the case. It will be wise not to mention that you paid anything. The fact that you were hired under H1 status and is still working with him shows that the LC and the I-140 rightly belongs to you.

We just received news that the Judiciary Committee hearings which were supposed to run until 1.00 pm today and also tomorrow have been postponed to March 27th. Apparently the deal is that the Judiciary Committee wants to put pressure on Senator Frist so that he does not introduce his version of the bill bypassing the committee...
Will update as soon as we hear more...
Not sure if this can be construed as good news or bad news! :(
The slow pace at which this is unfolding might just lead to depression/suicidal tendencies!!

Thanks Arihant. Yes it is strange and I am trying to find their ulterior motive behind this. All the while I thought my employer is not one of the typical desi employers (read blood sucking) we hear about in this forum. Hope I am right.
By the way, my question was related to AC21 (after 180 days of filing 485). If I quit my current employer and join another company, how would I let USCIS know to forward all their RFEs to my new employer/lawyer and not to the old one. Am asking this because I heard the I-9 form we fill while changing employment is only for the employer and he doesn't forward it to anybody. Does my query make any sense at all or am I just blabbering BS :o
The stuff in bold is something I am trying to figure out. How will we answer RFE's after 180 days if we file our selves? Company lawyer and employer will not be even willing to talk to us as we have moved away. What are the chances that USCIS will ask stuff related to your old employer? Can some one confirm that it should not arise as we have moved away using AC21 and all RFE's can be answered by new employer?
Thanks

Justice Department Files Suit Against Arizona Immigration Law
The Justice Department on Tuesday filed a lawsuit challenging Arizona's immigration law, claiming the law is "invalid" and "must be struck down." Read More (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/07/06/justice-department-file-suit-arizona-early-tuesday/)
Sometimes a rule/law might be an unpopular one, but the right one. All popular ones does not mean they are correct. People who have the guts to make unpopular / but the right decisions and enact them are the real leaders. This time, either this year or next year, we will know if CIR is driven by real Leader's or Politician who exploit any situation to increase their chances to stay longer in power.
Also do not see much media attention to anything related to CIR. May be it an election year politics that drive things now !!!
If this law suit translates into some action to address this broken immigration system, then it is a good one !!! Will have to wait and see ....

You cannot combine work and education for EB2 and for EB3 it must be so noted on the Labor Cert.
Santa,
Thanks for your response.
Education evaluation was not done for bachelors because the Labor only required masters. My attorney is planning to use 2 years of my experience to compensate for the additional 1 year of bachelors degree
H1Girl,
Thanks for your response.
Even my attorney says the argument of USCIS could be "building blocks" argument i.e. In US, for masters, 4 year bachelors is required. But, I only have a 3 year bachelor degree.

Please look back at this country's immigration laws over the years. When Europeans were immigrating to in large numbers, they didn't have any issues with that. They never felt the need of country cap. When non-Europeans started immigrating in large numbers, america suddenly realizes she has to be "fair" to all countries in the world and fairer to whites in particular.
It is such a shame that this country covers up racism with "diversity" in this 21st century.
Moreover skill has nothing to do with country of birth(EB category).
Diversity:
Diversity has to be reflected in the population already in US. Do you think Indians/Chinese are a majority in this country ?

There are so many things not required by law but you have to do which if you did not do is fraud or lie by ommision. Any material change to your case which could affect the decision of USCIS in awarding you with GC should be reported and USCIS "expects" us to do that.
I am telling all of you, there is a similar case on going right now. A couple apply for citizenship and got denied because of the discovery of fraud on their GC process. They are now in "removal proceedings".
If it's not required by law, no court will find you guilty. I am sure the case you are talking about is not employment-based portability case.
