Religion, politics and language. They are all controversial topics. !
one correction Religon is a private affair, Language too.
When Politics or Politricks drags these two for its benefit, it becaomes a big Frankenstein and it swallows everything.
Baan Politics.
(nothing against any language but the fact is below)
Yes, some of the comments are True. South Indians learn Hindi, and speak also, but not vice versa. the people in North don't even respect the other languages, From Andhra Pradesh, for the People in North every one is a Madraasi! And Bolly wood is not the lone Indian Cinema there is plenty of talent which is more than Bollywood, in India.
Apart from all these factors India is United.. Vande Mataram!
Another Note.
Sanskrit is the ancient and greatest language ever Human beings spoke. If everyone seriously learn Sanskrit there will be Peace in this world. All these languauges derived from this Language.

Visa recapture legislation such as H.R. 5882, is "one of the few bills that have the actual opportunity of getting done this year because of bipartisan support." Narasaki said this is also an opportunity to hold Congress' "feet to the fire" and see if those who claim that they are for immigrants, just against illegal immigration, really mean what they say.

Hi Guys,
I was looking at the AP renewal instructions. It says:
1. If you are in the United States, you must attach:
a. A copy of any document issued to you by USCIS showing your present status in the United States; and
b. An explanation or other evidence showing the circumstances that warrant issuance of an advance parole document; or
c. If you are an applicant for adjustment of status, a copy of a USCIS receipt as evidence that you filed the adjustment application;
d. If you are traveling to Canada to apply for an immigrant visa, a copy of the U.S. consular appointment letter.
So what I gather from this is that they need:
a) Our H1B status papers and the previous copies of the advanced parole documents.
b) A letter stating why we need the advanced parole.
c) The I-485 receipt copies.
Now it DOES NOT say anything about the photographs if you are filing within the US.
Can someone who has applied for the Advanced Parole (NOT the EAD), please share their experience and what documents are needed. The EAD filing seems to be elaborately covered.
Thanks.
Just I485:
Isn't just I485 receipt enough -
c. If you are an applicant for adjustment of status, a copy of a USCIS receipt as evidence that you filed the adjustment application
( (a) AND (b) ) OR (c)
+ Photographs:
...or if you are in the United States and filing for advance parole document.
You must submit two identical color photographs of yourself taken within 30 days of the filing of this application.
(Photo spec on page 5 of http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-131instr.pdf)
Alongwith I131 and US$305
Note: When I filed EAD, I didn't do over documentation (refer to http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=18737). In case of AP also overdocumentation should not be required.

The flower campaign was a huge success. The holiday season is here and I was thinking about a potentially new and innovative campaign idea. Greeting cards with a recorded audio message to be sent to the Director of USCIS. The message would be unique to the individual sending it. Should include something like "Dear Sir - I wish you a happy and safe holiday season. My name is "xyz". I am a legal immigrant stuck in the green card backlog for "xyz" years. Please help us. This message is just an idea - it could be anything agreed upon by consensus.
Maybe this idea is a little corny but we have to think out of the box. Just imagine - hundreds of greeting cards with their own unique message - could make a point???

I was told that people on H4 are not eligible for SSN, and if I want she (the person on counter in ssa office) can issue me a denial letter for that. It sounded useless to me that time, so I didn't bother to get that letter.
This idea sounds good to me, I'll go to SSA office again and try to apply. Offcourse they will say that they can't accept application. So I'll get a denial letter and I can appeal against that.
They cannot refuse to accept your application. Fill in the forms and send them in. They can deny your application and then you can appeal. If they refuse to accept the application, you have two options. You can contact your congressman and complain. You can file a discrimination complaint with the SSA ombudsman. Here is the discrimination form.
https://ssa.gov/online/ssa-437.pdf
Finally, if you believe you have been denied your rights because you are an immigrant, you can contact your local ACLU and ask them to represent your case. As a last resort, you can file a lawsuit at the federal district court. The filing fee for this is $350. However, I hope we are all doing this to exercise our rights rather than for the money. At least that is my motivation.
In my case, the first time I called, the person hung up on me. But I did not give up. I got them to accept the application and it is currently under reconsideration. I was also able to get a response from the Regional Office. So far they have not addressed any of the points I made in the original case as described in the OP. I expect they will continue to ignore their own laws and regulations, until I appeal this to an administrative judge, who will make a legal ruling.
BTW: All this costs you nothing but your time.

What was said at on BusinessWeek was just the old story again;just one side of the story. The truth is that you are setting yourself for disappointment if you expect this to turn into reality. Just relax, contribute to IV and save the rest of your money. Keep your expectations low, folks and we will get there.
Based on last week's BusinessWeek article, I have a feeling that we will see an effort to restrict initial H1B applications in some way. That would be a good opportunity to push for allowing naturalization applications for people who have been on work visas for a long time (say 8-10 yrs?). Fighting for citizenship would have a stronger emotional dimension and may connect better with the American public. A direct filing for citizenship will work around retrogression by providing an avenue for people to move out of the GC queue.

Understood every point of yours & I stand by what you said except for the language as it could have been a bit better. Regarding EB3 or EB2, maybe IV should work attaching a provision as part of its CIR work, which makes USCIS determine whether a candidate is in EB3 or EB2 based on the PERM & 140 instead of letting companies & attorneys mention it. If this happens the process will be much better as USCIS controls the categories & applicants do not need to beg a company to throw them into an EB2 basket or EB3 basket. Also, applicants can have certain amount of freedom from the companies.
When a process is flawed, there is always room for abuse. Of course, the abuse might be minimal, but when we see people with masters & 15 years of experience toiling in EB3 category it pains my heart. It is a fact there could be lesser qualified inidividuals who are in EB2 category, but the companies have managed to use these to hold the employees as hostage.
Hopefully USCIS someday understands this and takes control of assigning applicants into categories than asking company & attorney to mention.
Just sharing my two cents. Also, frustrations from EB3 should be tolerated by IV members, instead of beating them with "red dots". Because if we request members to put their time and effort then it would be mostly EB3 members as they are the "worst" affected. I am sure every year between july-sept most of EB2 members will do bulletin-watching & there is nothing wrong in it.
Next year by this time only EB3 will be here and I dont think many of the EB2 will even bother to read the forum. God bless EB3. Even for those guys with PD in 2003 if you think that you will be lucky in year or two, try buying lottery tickets too. You might win a jackpot.
Good Luck guys...

Now the USCIS had made july bulletin Current again, Everyone with an approved LC can apply. But after Aug 17th The Visa numbers will be unavailable again. USCIS is not going to approve many 485 in this one month period. There may be few lucky ones to get approval between july 17th and aug 17th.
But PD matters when the new fiscal year starts in october. If the dates are retrogressed to 2003 or 2004, USCIS will approve 485 that have PDs before the retogressed dates. Above all Backlog centers are committed to clear their backlogs before sep 30 2007. So there is still hope for those stuck in Backlog Centers that their PD is valuable when retrogression strikes.
Also expect huge delays in getting EADs and APs. IV should urge USCIS to issue interim EADs if EAD is not issued within 90 days.

You stand a better chance of getting it through your kids if they are citizens than getting it through EB3. There are a few options to get green card faster. Canada is not one of them.
1. Get a Ph.D, get a job in a univ and apply in EB-1.
2. Get a MBA and get a management job and apply in EB-1.
3. Become a religious worker in some temple and apply in the religious worker category.
PhD is no trivial thing. One does a phd only if one is truly motivated.
Plus PhD doesn't guarantee EB1 either.
Since 2001 downturn PhD graduates are having a hard time getting faculty positions
as education budgets haven't increased much and therefore faculty positions are very hard to get unless you are from a top school like UIUC, Stanford etc.
You will have to do 1-2 years of post doc at 30K per annum salary to land a
faculty position.
So you are looking at 6 (phd) years + 2 (post doc)years to land a job as faculty
and after that it might take1 years to get GC.
Living on 6 years of 18K per annum salary(Phd) + 2 years of 30K per annum salary (post doc) is no easy.
You are better off working on H1B . At least you will earn more and have a better life.

desi9333 thanks for the link. Nice one - even though it covers only Hiring practices, and not opportunities for promotions and progression.
The "Opportunity" usage has been explained much beyond Hiring in the other laws and related documents. Hence, an employee who subsequently faces discrimination because he/she cannot progress or misses on job advancements due to Visa limit restrictions is certainly being discriminated against.
Its my view and others can differ. I respect all opinions and am thankful to all because it helps improve my reasoning, mutual respect and tolerance abilities.
Back to the subject,
My earlier post on first page this thread has some action items - can anyone here take the lead and convince an attorney to take up the cause?
My cheque shall be sent as soon as the ball gets rolling.
The aim is not to convince an attorney. You can file a lawsuit for any reason and fight it. But the question is - Is the case strong enough?
In this case the case is not strong. IV has access to best attorneys and we have had discussions on this as well. The best way to change country limits discrimination is by changing the law.

TheOmbudsman,
A number of IV members have complaint about your posts. We know that you have earlier posted on IV forums with the screen names �Communique� and �marlon2006�. If I remember correctly, your handle 'Communique' was banned but it was pretty clear that you were an anti-immigrant. I want you to read this post because in next 15 minutes, I will be putting a ban on your handle.
Immigration Voice forums are created for high skilled immigrants and their families. We contribute constructively to the society. Your hate mongering tone and disguising as 'someone waiting for green card' is pathetic example of how low you can go. I try to read forums everyday and I try to read each and every post. Each day I try to read your post to get more determined to continue to work on this very important issue. But now, I think its time for you to leave IV forums as your tone is again becoming offensive and your posts drive legitimate IV members away.
We are requesting you politely to please leave IV forums alone and do not bother IV members.
Thank you,

Well...I am one of us stuck in EB3. I do qualify for EB2 but my employer choose to file it under EB3. I recently invoked AC21 and moved over to a new employer on my EAD. Is there a way I can ask my new employer if they can file new I140 under EB2 and change my category to EB2?
I am in almost exactly the same situation as you... I wonder if this can be done as well... On the other hand, as long as AC21 and EAD are prevalent (as long as we can indeed get 3 yr EAD) it is atleast not as bad for us...
I pity the poor guys who could not file in july for whatever reason and are stuck in EB3 with a later PD
