No way they cannot. They will accept till JUN 29th. I am not sure about JUN 30 as it is saturday. You have time till JUN28th to ship it.
There might be movement next two months. They need money too. They will let file every one.

Zoooom thanks for doing this. Anzerraja good work. You two work good as a team.

Twicetwice & Anzerraja, your generous pledge has inspired me to pledge $100 for now, more later.

We should merge all other threads dealing with this issue over here for convenience

Congrats! Where is ur I140 approved from.
Guys
Just saw my cheque cashed.. I think it got transferred over to TSC. I sent to NSC on Jul 2. And yes i had LUD in my I-140 as 7/28

Donated $50
Transaction ID: 28B47489F6184821P
I won't be able to attend, but thank you for the time and effort you all put into this thing..

done... Congressman changed in recent election.

It is a hard fact but I guess I do not want to scare anyone. If you notice some people have got their JuLY 2ND filed cases receipt # and most of them have a Notice date of 08/04/2007 (the guys who got their receipt #). This notice date is the day the Receipt was generated. So today is 08/13/2007. It seems that USCIS is delaying this process of issuing receipts as that will give them a chance to reject applications after 17th. So I guess we should brace ourselves for rejection notices also......

Raybarrone - The way one think is our choice. If there is any big master plan to delay our RN so be it. Either we can take it as it is or we can act. These kinds of pessimistic thinking helps no body.

Please help yourself by reading some PMA books.
Here is a starter

AS a man thinketh

Have some good self talk. We have to Learn to respect ourself by NOT taking any crap handed out to us. Learn to FIGHT and uplift yourself and others. A man without any reason to FIGHT has lost all battles in life. He has no hope and he cannot create any change.

And if what I say does not make any sense, please feel free to 'BRACE FOR REJECTION NOTICES...' if that helps.

One more week for me....I'm a July 31st filer...

any vendor is fine. its a token of protest

I think its important to mention this is a protest of the actions done by them, otherwise the morons might think we are appreciating their work..


Please make sure this is a protest and your message should convey that. I'm sure the morons would think otherwise if we dont make it clear to them.:D

My pledge $100 for Aman.

People with soft LUD on I-140 on 7/13 are getting their I-485 approved from TSC. Nothing concrete but a trend. Hope for the best.

hi guyz,

Here u go. The company name is 3i Infotech Inc. based in NJ.

As far as I know this is a genuine company and not a typical small desi company.
Did you sign some paper saying that you will reimburse the GC costs if you leave the company? If it was signed before the GC process started then it is not against the law that the company is holding back the $4K. This is a big company and I don't think the $4k matters to them much.

As far as experience letter, they have to give it.

Also, sometimes we get mad at the company even though its our own mistake. So, before filling anything with the labor department, make sure you have not signed the papers. By reporting them you are basically giving trouble to others who are in GC process through them.

because my appointment date is may 28th , he asked if i will pay for him he will do that today so i did

hehehe, are you serious about this?

EAD - Paper filed

Filled on June 30th
Receipt Date July 8st.
LUD on July 11th

Thanks.

In Fox News this afternoon, the senator has explicitly said that the Chicago lady does not have any "constituional rights" since she is not American citizen. Go figure what they think about us.

she can say whatever. the courts have to agree.

if she says that constitutional protections don't apply to non-citizens, they are essentially reinstating slavery.

not that the constitution was against slavery.

consultant does not consitute employer-employee relationship. This WILL NOT satisfy the full time permanant employment.

Oh yeah. All big time consulting companies must lay off foreign workers then, myself included. My perm was filed as IT programmer, IT consultants job code. So am I not a full time employee of consulting company? Is USCIS fool to approve my I140? Not once but twice!

I don't think the Canadian officers will ask you that question. But like someone else said on this thread that question may be raised by the US officers when you return. I am curious to know about this myself.

Aslo (I don't want to scare you but thought you ought to know) there's another discussion going on here http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=17061 where the US officers at POE in SF airport raised an issue saying that AP can be only used for imergencies. This looks more like an isolated case but I want everyone to be aware of that case.



In my case, i do not have a valid H-1B visa stamp. I recently visited India and used Advance Parole. Questions related to this

1) do i need to surrender my PAROLE I-94 before departing USA?
2) does canada immigration officer ask me why i have applied for canada gc while my USA gc is in process?:confused:

Thanks.

At one end it is bad that USCIS moved back Nebraska Processing date to June 08 2007 (More than one month backword) but it looks like USCIS is preparing itself to kick EB3-India ahead... It is too early to say this confidently.. But my feeling is that USCIS will keep processing dates tied to June 2007 and will kick EB3-India ahead. I am keeping my fingers crossed. Though as per murthy's web site in May bulletin EB3-India dates will remain same, I am feeling that if my guess is correct then at least from June bulletin we will see 2 patterns 1) Nebraka processing date would not move ahead for some months or will
move ahead very slowly from June 08 2007
2) Eb3-India PD dates will move ahead speedily. To me it looks like USCIS is now prepared to kick EB3-I (Till June 2003 PD) lot out.
How is the nebraska processing date of june 2007 linked to the visa bulletin. How can you say that looking at processing times of june 2007, we can predict that USCIS wants to push out EB3-I past jun 2003?????

I live in Virginia Beach. I am willing to come to DC if a rally is being organized there. Please let me know the details.

Jag

PD should be established on the first labor application.

I feel this is more practical than number of years in US.

It already does, if you have an approved I-140 based on your LC.

If skill bill is passed in the same form as it is Americans will be alarmed seeing the inflow based on exemption of US based Master degree and STEM. Not only to Americans it is threat for current H1s and green card holders as well. The problem is those who have money in India can get admission in USA MS degree in any non standard college(I do not think INS can evaluate whether it is standard or not). So atleast 4 times of current MS students will come and they will get h1(I think Ms people has exemption in quota) thro Desi consultants by paying Money and get green card immeditely. This will defeat the purpose of skill bill itself. And also India so many people are doing MSC they can get gc easily here(As we know Indians or anyone will use loopholes to come here and get gc). If immigration is increased so much then it will impact all kinds of exsisting people. I think there should be control in number of h1s and also green cards. I am clear that both H1 and green card numbers should be increased but blanket exemption should not be given any category especially for H1. There were a situation on 2000 and 2001 lot of people returned India because of too much supply and Americans were angry with immigrants at that time especially H1 because they were laid off.

So basically increase of immigration should be based on supply and demand . The purpose of Labour certification is to verify whether any american is rejected for that job. But that is now just formal and real test is not done(it is not possible to do it. If they do it it will take years to clear). I think if they double number of gcs the retrogession issue will be resolved for atleast another 5 years

What standards are you talking about? All the universities in the US are standard and all are non-standard at the same time. There are no legally accepted ways to define what is standard. Also, the GMAT or GRE or TOEFL are not necessarily indicators of admitting brilliant students. Several ABET accredited departments in engineering schools do not require GRE scores! And yet they are ABET accredited. So this argument makes little sense. (Somehow I think, we've discussed this before :))

As purgan pointed out, the market forces have made this a great country. Even if you have an MS or Ph.D., but if you have no job, you are not going to get a GC; but that has always been the case. I don't know that you can get a job by paying a desi consultant 20K. If that is happening, the law will take corrective action, as it invariably does in this country fortunately. So there is no reason to worry about that provision in the SKIL bill.

But I do agree that it may be easier to get something like doubling the number of GCs temporarily, rather than a blanket provision, passed. (That is like increasing the queue capacity during rush hour and bringing it back to normal levels when the traffic intensity reduces.) But if we increase the H1B quota and only double the number of GCs, we will have an intractable situation.
