Lots of people getting excited about the new bills.. How many have it in them to run/work for it??

I have it in me, and I will be running all of the Team IV events to show my dedication and support for this cause.

me and my wife will try to attend this event. If not for any reason will contribute 100 USD for event.

Dont you (the applicant) have to sign the application? If she completes the application on sunday...you should go and sign it(only if you are in same city)...

Just called my lawyer, she will work overtime on Sunday and try to file our applications on Monday.

Thanks.

Opened on May 3rd, it was an email ... whats intersting about the mail is time stamp on mail is 12:56 PM (may 5th), but got the mail around 10 PM (may 5th)

Letting all this Indian Consulting Firms taking ALMOST all the H-1B visas is very unfair for everyone of us that we are working hard to get a job in the US. In my opinion, they are trying to monopolize all the H-1B so no other company can be able to hire foreign professionals by themself. In this way their only way to get professionals is thru them.

It is very UNFAIR that this consulting companies takes a large number, getting almost everything, of H-1B visas without having a real job for them. This companies will offer this H-1Bs to other companies, making it a big business. Additionally, I believe that indians also pays to this consulting companies for the H-1B.

Even if the congress raise the cap without making changes in the system, it will never be enough. It will just increase the profit of this consulting companies. I only hope that the changes going to be introduced to fix the system will not screw us and complicate more the immigration process. But realistics and effectives changes are needed.

Good luck for everyone who are in the H-1B lottery and really need it.

Thanks

Thankyou , Just wrote my cry!

I have sent my cry to my senators and representative.

This is an extremely bad bill.With India dominating not only the H1 visa quota and EB green cards applications but also body shops and �consulting� companies; eliminating the per country quota would massively and unfairly flood America with workers from India

Many defenders of the bill used flawed socio-economic reasons to justify their *shameful and selfish agenda. Unused visa for ROW (Other countries) is NOT because there are not enough skilled workers from other countries but because the uscis/dhs use the quota to conservatively hence at the end of the visa year there are still many quotas left. ROW priority date has never been current for a very long time

Would you prefer to work with 7 immigrants from India and OR 2 from India, 1 from Germany, 1 from Zimbabwe, 1 from Argentina, 1 from Slovakia and 1 from Burma? The bill will not only hurt professional immigrants from other countries but also will hurt diversity, the core and sacred believe of American people

Unfortunately your friend is correct - the alternate I can think is withdraw your present application and file I-140 and I-485 simultaneously now - other please tell whether this will be a good approach for their benefit. Can EB3 file concurrently I 140 and I 485.

On my wife's labor certificate, it is said her position requires a minimum of master degree. But the alternate is bachelor degree plus 2 years' experience. The lawyer has filed I-140 under EB2.
We are worried that this position does not qualify EB2 because we read on the internet that EB2 requires master degree or bachelor plus at least 5 years' progressive experience. We called the lawyer and said we heard from a friend such a case had been denied. She was very busy and just said there was no problem to apply for Eb2, and if we doubt it, we can hire our friend as a lawyer. We are so pissed off.
Can someone help me clarify if this position is qualified for EB2? do we need to change it to Eb3?
Thanks.

I may beat you on total wait time. it's 15 yrs since i entered this country (1995).
first labor filed 1999 (11 yrs back), current one started in 2004

Arae mere pyaara bhaai,

I am completing 10 years in GC process in September 22, 2010.:cool:

How about that?

Before the first application gets to process, I left the company and joined another company. The GC which I am waiting for since then was filed by the second company. They filed it on EB3 eventhough I was eligible for EB2 for "easier processing". At that time both EB2 and EB3 were current. And it remained the same way till I got my labor approved the very same month it went into retrogression. Since then I am waiting.

By the way, my first company sold the labor they filed for me for $15K dollars to another guy. He got his GC in 2005 and just 2 months back he became an US Citizen.

That is a long story told short....

I received a request to share my personal story with you.

I have been in the US for 10 years, have owned a home for the entire time, and I am currently on H1B. My employer will not sponsor me for no particular reason and all the horror stories about GC processing have discouraged me from pursuing it on my own. I am currently seeking opportunities in my home country.

Sent reminder emails to some that have not joined yet. Will follow up in the evening.

Oh Angel....please help me....i have been waiting in the Q for a long long time....can u kindly...expedite my GC......first i was a Kutta....now due to the itches all over....caused by wait for my GC i have become what my name indicates.....:D

Should it not be-- KhajuaKutta ?

Can someone tell me what is the alternate for providing birth Certificate I have one in Hindi.
I heard that you need a translation in english for birth certificates in foreign language. I am not sure where to obtain the translation for the certificate. Probably the attorney should be able to tell this.

This is my 10th Bump post on this forum !! :D :D :D :D :D :D

Thank you guys...........

I am a junior member and donate $50 to the IV every month. I am in the same boad with PERM after the audit. I do not understand why you guys are getting hostile with the guy that asked a question. It is a genuine question and needs discussion on the board whether you like it or not.

Just got the email. Finally!

Post Decision Activity

On May 3, 2011, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I485 APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS.


Application was at NSC. Last SLUD was in Sept 2010. No RFE on either 140 or 485.

I believe there are always two camps in any group, different view points, ideas and observations.

I firmly believe even if words are harsh from some members they donot mean that bad, or they just simply cant see other's view point.

Over last few year, i have observed something and that bothers me, the point is
"We (Indians) are interesting people, we want to live as an indian in america";
save a lot of money, go home(india) for 15 days ....say bad things about india
and then come here...start saying bad things about america.


Nothing about this behavior is specific to Indians. It is a first generation immigrant behavior. See if you children are going to do it...


I like some points aobut half hearted work from some fellows. I totally agree.
Here is my simply take, if we want to live and compete hapilly, we have to really live in america as an american.
How can an indian who slept all afternoon on weekend, then watched a movie and ate heavy dinnner at night with 5 indian families who all taked about negative things in america; will /can compete with american on monday morning...when this american
got up early on saturday, ran 10 miles ...full of energy....took his/her kids for camping or went on its own, ran /exercised on sunday may be a long trek in woods...he is fresh, ready to work, creative...
I donot think anyone who slept all week/watched movie/talked negative about american society /about america can compete with someone who lived for full weekend.


Really? An active lifestyle, being outdoors, energetic etc. are qualities of an American? A country where 70% of people are supposed to be overweight? Where some say 30% to 40% of schoolchildren are obese? I would agree with your argument for an active lifestyle versus a lazy one. However generalizing to things like getting up early/running/trekking/outdoorsy etc. as typical American traits is pushing it.

If I want to catch up on my sleep on the weekends, why not? I sleep less than 6 hours a day on average during the week. Sleeping less = poor output and also has been linked to poor cardiac health.



These are just small observations.
In short, most of us are still living an indian life in america. This will not take us far,
If we want to be happy we got to live as an american in america.
Money is not everything,a big bankbalance will do no good to anyone at age of 65 when you cant move your leg let apart run or play.

I also believe, we (indians) donot give time to ourselves. Ex. husband, wife, kids all together all the time. No good, give time to yourself, do somtihngs togehter and some things seperately, This will give time to observe life as an individual too.


You dont have to blindly believe that everything that is American is good.
For example, Americans work the longest hours of any developed country. Does this increase your standard of living. They have the fewest holidays/vacation days.

Maybe doing things separately is your "American way" of fun. Doing things with my family is my way. What's wrong with that. At least we dont have a 50% divorce rate and dont kick our kids out of our homes when they turn 18.


how many indian go out for just all boys groupings, not many. Why??? how bad it can be, when you just go out kick some dust drink beer if you please, atleast releax.
When i started doing it, it was lot of fun.

Same should be with girls, wives, you all should go out and do things with your friends for a change.

same for kids, if your kids want to go camping with school friends, let them go. Let kids live their life. Imaging what your kids talks about weekend, when rest of american kids talk about running in wood, fishing, hunting, mud racing.....????

Just my thoughts and i believe in living life to fullest; and try to live it to fullest too.

I go out and meet friends by myself. Why does it have to be all boys? Why do I have to drink beer (yucky/stinky stuff by the way). My wife does the same with her friends. Kid is too youg for this.

My point is you are trying to fit into your image of an american. You will never fit in completely. You are hoping your beer buddies are laughing with you and not at you. Be yourself- however Indian or American it may be.

Any suggestion please? thanks.
