05/26/2006: Critical Role of House-Senate Conference Committee and Importance of Selection of the Conferees
More than ever, in the Comprehensive Immigration Reform legislation, the role of the upcoming House-Senate Conference Committee will be critically important. Traditionally, once conference committee reaches an agreement, the floors of both Houses usually accepted the compromise report of the conference committee. It is thus critically important to learn who will be selected to the conference committee by each House. The key players in the selection are the Speaker of the House, the President of the Senate, Majority and Minority leaders in both Houses.
In the Senate, the floor has already decided how the conferees from the Senate will be selected. It proposes to send conferees at the ratio of 14 from the House and 12 from the Senate. On the Senate side, all the conferees will be selected from the Judiciary Committee at the ratio of 7 from the Republicans and 5 from the Democrats. On the Republican side, the Majority leader will select the seven Republican conferees and the Minority leader will select the five Democrat conferees. Without doubt, the Democrats will select the hardcore supporters of the CIR, but it is unclear who the Majority leader Bill Frist will pick on the Republican side. He may attempt to balance between the hardcore supporters and the hardcore opponents within the party. We just wish that the hardcore Republican opponents who posed a roadblock to the today's passage of the bill in the Senate as revealed in the amendment and final roll calls do not take a dominant power on the Republican side of the Senate delegaton. Readers may want to know who these opponents are by checking the voting records of S. 2611.

Thanks for the responses. I have contacted my attorney and they are evaluating my case. Mean while I want to educate my self to see the available options.
SKI Dude12 - I did n't cut others to use labor substitution. My employer has a left over labor, which I used for my 140. The original guy has two labors and he left my employer.

NYC is pretty easy, you have to shown your passaport and you get your ID or Licensing driver application. Thank god, but what a mess! I am wondering if we are still welcome in this country, i don`t know any more....
Friends , I was enquiring about Connecticut , but I am pleased to know about all the states.
beppenyc , Do you get your license till I-94 date or beyond it in NYC. Also my wife has the international driving permit , will that help?
Also will it be good idea to collect this info and publish it so that all of us know the rules and regulations of each state , this will help people immensely in situtaions like I am in ?

That's good for you. As long as you understand the pro's and con's of invoking the H1B as well. The con's mostly depend on whether you have already exhausted your 6 years of permitted H1B.
I spoke with USCIS again this morning and this time got hold of a more helping IO.

Are the processing times according to the notice date or the received date ? Mine are 4 months apart.
It is based on Received date but some are saying that CIS is not really following that but in "THEORY", its the RCVD Date.

So you apply about 4 months in advance? Are you then not losing about 3 months of your previous validity due to this practice?
not sure what you mean.
If your new validity date starts before the current one expires then yes you might lose the time depending on how fast your EAD was approved.
In my experience there has been no consistency in the issuance of the validity date in the past. I have received cards where the new validity date has been the day after my current EAD expired thereby me not losing any time and there have been times when I have lost time due to new validity date being prior to my current one expiring.
As per USCIS rules you can apply for renewal 120 days before your current one expires and not before that. Remember you can also apply for renewal a day before or even after expiry, its just that you cannot work as long as you do not have a valid EAD(or other work permit like H1B, L1 etc).
So as long as you are not at the risk of losing your job due to no EAD in hand I guess you can apply anytime once your 120 day window kicks in.
PS:Above is just my understanding of the system and should not be taken as legal advise. For any clarifications please consult your attorney.

I have a similar question. I have I-94 till Jan 2008 as my H1B visa is valid till Jan 2008. If I file an H1B extension in Dec, is that okay ? I know, approval would not come before Jan 08.

No, there is old Child Protection Act and it protects from aging out while I-140 is in process. So child age is determined as age on time of filing I-485 (that means that visa is immediately available) minus time that I-140 was pending with USCIS.
I did not understand the "time of filing I-485 (that means that visa is immediately available) minus time that I-140 was pending with USCIS" part.
My situation is as follows - My I-140 is approved and judging by the current situation my child will be above 21years (currently on H4) when visa becomes available.
My questions are - Will I be able to extend my child's H4 beyond his 21 years, assuming I continue on H1? And will I be able to adjust my child's status when visa becomes available?
Thanks

I was not implying that legal immigrants would abuse the information if they received someone else's documents, but with that many rejected applications in the mail and lying in mailboxes, there is always a possibility of theft by others. Also documents like the medical exams are expensive to replace.

You can do hero worship of your lawyer whoever it is. I will not.
Ask him/her if he will do advocacy effort for you or sue USCIS since all his clients are struggling in the long wait and spending a lot of money on immigration consultations, fees etc.
Ask him if he contribute to IV instead?
Ask him to give you priority instead of your employer who gives him business every year.
Ask him why AILA is not giving you regular updates through him. As clients of lawyers we should get regular updates and prompt responses. What are they doing about country caps removal, end of retrogression, recapture etc. I mean they are so powerful, so why can't they do it for us so that we no longer need lawyers and save a lot of money? Arn't we all spending thousands of $s on immigration attorneys ? and only few of us pay only $25 and many are free members and get such a good service from IV website. We all hate to pay a single dollar to IV and accuse IV core of asking contributions every time there is a drive but IV still helps us. They need to learn from us.
Why none of us has the courage to do it, but we have the courage to trash talk IV and blame its core for not working hard enough for our $25.
Whats your skillset, I can try to get you a project. No offense, but you do seem to have too much time to loose-comment on others and contribute nothing.

No, none of this is needed. As I said, different projects require different skills. You could potentially create a great website with just html and an image editor.

Buddy, what were you doing for 40 days after your got terminated? If you knew it was coming you should have made efforts to transfer H1 or right after. If you transfer H1, then obviously INS will look for pay stubs etc from the last sponsoring co. Since you mentioned you never actually worked for them (if I understand this right) then you are in trouble. You can use EAD but you lose your H1 status. If you want to get back to H1 then you are back in the lottery mess to qualify for one. Obviously you need to decide what is important to you at this point. Marriage or your job/GC. Good luck.

I am on the same boat. My 485 was approved on 8/6 but no card yet. I have opened an SR. My approval notice says that I should receive my card within 3 weeks but the automated message at USCIS as well as the customer rep there says that I should wait for 60 days. I insisted on opening the SR since the approval notice clearly says I need to contact USCIS if I did not have my card within 3 weeks. I was told that I would get a response within 30 days for my SR.

Hi Beppenyc,
I have a very good friend who is French. He live is Paris. He tells me his view is different than yours.
Beppenyc, could it be because France did not control the number of immigrants and ended up bringing more pople than what they should and made assimilation harder there ? Some believe that the US is heading to a path similar than the France one. Just look at the US. This is a country known for its immigration tradition. Look at what is happening now. Americans - unfortunately - are starting to become bitter towards immigration. Why ? It is because as everything in life, you need to have a balance. If you start letting too many people in, people may feel immigration becomes an invasion. Like France, this is a democracy. When you have the majority of your citizens pissed off at illegal immigration or even rate of legal immigration, honestly I would listen to the people otherwise the relationship between newcomers and citizens may look a rough road ahead.
Just to give you an idea, today I have a lunch with folks from my church - some are here illegally - and they acknowledged that there are too many Latinos in Orlando and therefore they do not want to live there anymore. Just to give you an idea how serious the situation is. Even the illegal folks themselves admit that an unbalanced number of immigrants may not be advantageous.
The problem in French is different. They bring the immigrants from Africa and North Africa to work to build the subway, La Defense (ask yourfriends),Eurostar ect ect. French has a controll of the number of immigrants, is not so difficult. The problem is that they put the immigrants living in the ghetto (Banlieu) and to not give any hope of future. When all the big project were done, they forced to sent the immigrants home, but without success. If you are really interest to see what is the reality in France, get this movie made in 1997, LA HAINE.
Communique, the problem is different: Illegal immigratin is like poverty , you will never defeat it. The US economy have an enormous advantage with the Illegal immigration, in particulary in Agricolture, they were more competitive in the international market. If you have 12 million of illegals, means that you have at least 6 million of American Citizen who give job to this people, making a HUGE PROFIT. Let`s analyze the restaurant business, how is possible that is cheaper to eat in USA than europe? The reason because here they can use a lot of illegal in the kitchen or as waitress. What about the house building? What about it? About the legal, the difference is that of course we are playing with the rules, but the reality is that we are in the same condition: we are slave, we can not look for another job because of the sponsorship and 4 have this green card we will wait for ever.That`s give an enormous advantage to the company, butis not fair, because the company is really exploit us. You are talking about invasion, it`s funny, I have the same discussion with another american kid. If the American citizens are really angry about that, how is possible that they continue to hire illegal? . YOur economy is growing but US don`t have the capacity to answer to all the needs. Period. Your immigration law was wrong from the beginning, because did not undestand the really needs of the economy. The real challange is to make them integrated in the US society. If not , the situation will be worse in the future. Good luck and good nigt!
