I wonder the reasons for Switzerland to be #1. Its a small country with minimal immigration and not much resources. Key revenue might be from Tourism. They are not known for scientific work etc.
... Maybe swiss bank accounts are key to it ! ;)
One big plus for Switzerland: their universities and advancement in technology.
Both ETH and EPFL in switzerland are THE TOP institutes in Europe for advanced technical degrees. Also, in the past 3-4 years, they have undertaken a huge initiative to invite the creme de la creme from around the world to switzerland, and looks like that is also paying off. Every professor/scientist/PhD I know would gladly accept a chance to go there!
So, Im not surprised that they are number 1. They strategized.. and they got exactly where they were trying to get! Whereas here, they got stuck mixing up illegals and skilled people, addressing fencing issues instead of labor backlogs, etc etc...and lost sight of a bigger, more valuable goal.
cheers.

I have a question regarding use of EAD and living in Canada
My scenario
Currrently, I work on H1-B and am living in Canada (I cross US-Canada border everyday)
I am also a Canadian Citizen and used that to cross border everyday. So, far I never used the EAD
I recently got laid off, and planing on using my EAD for my next employment.
Questions
Once I start using the EAD, can I still live in Canada and work in US.
Is it necessary to live in US if one starts using EAD?
Did you file for I-485? If so, what is the address mentioned in the I-485 application? If it is US address, then you should be residing at that address.
I-485 application indicates that beneficiary is residing in the USA and applying for adjustment of status.

HI,
Can any one tell me is it necessary to Get medical done by Dr. only around ur location.
Reason for asking is I live in NJ. And i got an appointemt with DR. Kim in NY as i know him through somebody else.
He is also more reasonable asking around 190/-
Thanks
He is definitely not reasonable if he is asking only 190/- becuase that should just be the physical. Immunization and xray might increase your cost. Check with your doc.

After all these days it appears many people are still not clear about the difference between 485 processing times and priority date movement.
The two are completely different entities. When USCIS talks of backlogs they do not mean backlogs due to retrogression (PD unavailability). They are talking about the number of applications they received and the time it takes for them to process them.
When USCIS says it will clear the backlog by 2010, it means applications filed after that time will be processed in a timely manner (in less than 6 months). It does not mean that all the 485s before that time wil be approved. It only means these 485s will be processed and thrown into a cold sorage bin to be looked at again whenever the PD becomes available.
When retrogression started in 2005, EB2 India jumped forward by 6 months each visa bulletin. The reason was namecheck delays combined with the problem of Labors with Old PDd languishing in BECs. As both these problems have been eliminated now and also many EB3 filers from that time are switching over to EB2, it is highly unlikely that one will see wide movement in India EB2.

Man, you are so crazy about opening so many threads for the same topic. You cannot force people to send letters. And by this time those who wants to send letters had already sent to WH and IV. Give us some break. I come to IV site to get some information on immigration issues and what I get are 'n' numbers of threads for same issue. ---- ADMIN FIX.......
These are the active threads I found on the front. Let put our energy on different things and get move to other issue, other than sending letters. If you want to be moderator or something else in IV contact PAPPU directly.

Hi Pankaj,
You sang the National Anthem very well. I have been here in US for about 5 years now and for the first time; I felt that I was part of America and this could be my country. I felt goose bumps when I heard you sing the Anthem.
Thank You. And yes, you did sing it from your heart and only then can it have such a magical effect on everyone who was listening.
Thanks,
Thescadaman

Due to the economic downturn there aren't many companies sponsoring GCs for employees. I doubt it would be more than 20 to 30k per year from now. This leaves 100-110k visas available every year for retrogressed countries like india and china
if there 300-400k pending GC applications in all categories then shouldn't all of us get our GC in next 3-4 years?
The downturn also causes 'GC pending' applicants to be laid off.

I do have a D70 as well as other AF and non-AF cameras and never had such problems before. I have backfocus-problems with all lenses on the D70. I ran some simple testing that confirmed this. In practice, this will only be a problem shoting faces wide open - but here, it's quite bad.

Thanks Rajesh.
I was trying to find out if there are any other options to record my departure date and returning I-94 when I leave US by LAND.
Looks like the only option for people leaving by Land is to send the I-94 to "ACS - CBP SBU". In my case, I will have to send this along with details proving my stay in Canada after leaving US.

I, personally, do not know anyone who lives in Canada and is complaning about jobs. Every beginning is difficult but for us who come to Canada from the US, I do not think the beginning would be difficult at all. Even with their famous Canadian exp only requirements....
Also, when you guys weigh in job prospects in Canada in comparison to being on H1 in the US, do you consider that your spouses would have a fair chance to at least re-start their careers or start their new careers, or do you think / know that your spouses will actually continue to stay at home?
In that case there is no difference between staying here or going there, right?

Funds, There are more ideas than funds. For every new campaign, plan, we need funds. So it is an ever needed commodity. We can do a lot and lobby effectively, we just need more funds, plain and simple. Inspite of several hundreds contributing, it is not enough. Remember IV is a non-profit, so every penny is accounted for. People handling money (core IV) are sincere, honest hardworking people on work-visas, they have much to lose from not being accountable. And the most important thing is, please take a look at these hard-working IV CORE PEOPLE, please. Some of them have put thousands of dollars (I mean 5 and ten thousand) into this effort. I am not counting personal expenses, travelling to DC, lost work hours etc.
So your $100 at the bowling arena, or $50 at dinner or $35 bouquet wont get you much farther, but your recurring contribution to IV will.

Relax!!!!!! my 485 application is pending with TSC...As per my jurisdiction i am suppose to send documents to NSC...But when i e-filed it gave me instruction to send support documents to TSC only...so don't panic...
Does that mean I am screwed? My package got delivered this AM at Mesquite, TX as per the tracking receipt.
Will Texas forward my application to vermont or do I need to send the package seperately to Vermont?
Thanks much!

KHUSH RAHO ....
Zindagi hai choti , har pal me khush raho...
Office me khush raho , ghar me khush raho..
Aaj paneer nahi hai , dal me hi khush raho,
Aaj gym jane ka samay nahi , do kadam chal ke he khush raho..
Aaj Dosto ka sath nahi , TV dekh ke hi khush raho..
Ghar ja nahi sakte to phone kar ke hi khush raho...
Aaj koi naraaz hai , uske iss andaz me bhi khush raho..
Jisse dekh nahi sakte uski awaz me hi khush raho...
Jisse paa nahi sakte , uske yaadon me he khush raho
MBA karne ka socha tha , S/W me he khush raho...
Laptop na mila to kya , Desktop me hi khush raho..
bita hua kal ja chuka hai , usse meethi yaade hai unme he khush raho..
aane wale pal ka pata nahi ..sapno me he khush raho..
Haste haste ye pal bitaenge , aaj me he khush raho
Zindagi hai choti , har pal main khush raho.....

Life is short, enjoy its every moment
In Office and at Home, enjoy and just enjoy
Did get Chicken Masala, be happy with fast food
No time for gym today, walk a little and be happy
Didn't see a friend today, watch TV and be happy
Can't go to home country, make a call and be happy
Somebody is upset with you, ignore/remember him and be happy
You can't see him/her, listen to that voice and be happy
That person can't be yours, just remember and be happy
Planned to do MBA, so what if you are in software, be happy
Didn't get Laptop, With desktop be happy
Yesterday is gone, recall fond memories and be happy
Worried about future, stay in dreams and be happy
These times will pass, enjoy your present to the fullest and be happy
Life is short, enjoy its every moment
and may I add this one line
Enjoy your today to the fullest
who knows ..
there may be no tomorrow
