Mike Tyson Tattoos

Immi_Seeker,

I absolutely agree with you. One of my cousin is unfortunately suffering in EB3 for years he is a MS and working for over 10 years, he has been trying to port to EB2...but his attorney flatly refused on grounds that the company doesn't need a advanced degree applicant for that position and they can't justify the same to USCIS and invite scrutiny especially in this economy.

Ofcourse porting is blessing for lawyers and it means greenbacks for them the more the better.

SoP

I am in the same boat. MS + 9 years. But my application is rotting in EB-3 since 2004. As I have said before, if EB3 does not mobilize then the only option is to rot for another 4-5 years.

I am starting this thread for the july filers to track right from fedex delivery to Receipt Number, EAD and APO .Let post the details.

For your Information India's GDP is 3 trillion USD compare to Mexico 1 trillion USD. Taking into account GDP of EU India ranks 5th in GDP higher than any indivisual European nation where as Mexico ranks 13th. This is as per CIA worldfactbook. So where did you get the number
"Mexico's GDP is essentially equal to India's (India = 775,410, Mexico=768,437). "
Hmmn did I forget you are an MBA from Mexico ?

(What would happen if India shared a land border with the U.S.A. - One can only imagine! Instead of 7 million illegal Mexicans, we would have 400 million illegal Indians here!)
Lets get this thing straight buddy without shadow of any doubt there are more Mexican than Indian in USA. But what about the number of doctors, computer scientist, economist, professors of reputable Universities, physcisist of Indian origin compare to Mexican origin.

I will ignore your familiarity in calling me your "buddy". Find something constructive to say in regards to our IV goals instead of attacking. To begin with, this is not the place for me to explain to you the details of difference between Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) GDP (that you quote) and the market exchange rate GDP which I quoted. But since you raised the subject, PPP GDP is adjusted to accomodate for different inflation and consumption rates in different countries. Without the PPT adjustment, India's GDP is equal to Mexico's, even though India has 11 times the population of Mexico. The reason India comes in 4th with the PPP adjustment in the world is because the ruppee is undervalued and Indians have a purchasing power that is 4 times smaller than Mexicans. So, to humor you and use your method of calculation, the Per Capita GDP (PPP) Of India is $3,344 in 2006 and Mexico's is $12,886. "Where are all the Mexican doctores, computer scientists, economists and professors?" you ask. The answer is: They are IN MEXICO making huge salaries, when the Indian ones have to come here because their salaries in India don't give them enough money to eat. Why aren't all the construction workers and lawn workers in the U.S. Indian? Because they cannot affor the airfare. The Mexicans just walk accross the border. Any you know what? All those Indian Professors at Harvard etc are teaching class to all those rich Mexican kids. Get your facts straight before you confront me and make fun of my MBA (which I got in the U.S. incidentally, not Mexico, but if I had wanted I could have gotten a top 20 MBA back home). I just recated to people's racist attacks here. So now, if you have anything to contribute to our IV common cause, welcome! If all you are about is attacking other forum members then please leave and do not come back. Thanks.

Hello, Anyone on July 3rd R.William 9:00am NSC has not received receipt...please let me know.
Now I am worried, I called today(17th sep) but no news on my record.

PD:May 2006
140: Aug 2006
i-485 : @ NSC july 3rd waiting for receipt

July 3rd R.William 9:00am NSC

Does anyone know what bill was AC21 attached to in Clinton's Administartion. That will give us some clue what bills we can tag to. I know the world is really very different after 9/11 but this is something we should look into to see what worked before might work again.

Has anyone with the following criteria got receipt notice or have their check cashed ?
1) I-140 approved at TSC
2) LUD on I-140 on 07/22, 07/28, 08/05, 08/12 etc...
3) I-485 mailed to NSC during last week of June or early July ?

Please respond...

Thanks

The legal reasoning is "Civil Rights Act of 1964" which applies to all individuals employed by a US employer in the US.

Wow! Amazing!

Please ask your attorney to quote this law when you file for H-1B extension, so that USCIS can not reject extension.

This law applies to US resident only. Temp worker (yes, on H1/L1 status, one is Temp Worker from legal point of view) can not claim protection citing this law. Reason: your employment is subject to USCIS regulations. It says right there on your SSN.

.

One more...

Just a reminder..

Make and take some big posters (small with BOLD letters would help) with you...just the gathering wont help that much unless we have some big poster in hands. This would help if we are pictured by media.

Thanks for your suggestions. Any specific content. Guys let me have some suggestions on the content that we should put on the banners for the San Jose rally on 07/14

Great news: IV core is supporting the flower campaign - see this thread (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=6191). :)

We have until tonight to place in the orders so that the flowers can be delivered on Tuesday.

Everyone who kept the faith - thanks and lets continue sending emails or calling people to let them know about it.
People who said that they will send the flowers only if IV core supports it - please send flowers asap.

BTW, I am curious as to who first proposed this idea.



Good going.

Prashant was the first person to propose the idea. good idea dude
dtekkedil was amongst the first to support the idea and address of Emilio came from him
I was probably the first to send the flowers

Anyway this is not about trying to get the credit.. we all can make a sumbolic gesture and thats what this is about. I am happy the media coverage its getting and hope it gets more coverage and people notice it

bump..........

This is great guys... I'm going to order the flowers right away. But make sure everyone signs off as 'Victim of revised visa bulletin', otherwise Mr. Gonzalez might think we are commending him for the good work. Make sure its clear that this message is in protest! :)

who is up for DC?

Tony,

Not everyone who contributes will post their contribution in the forum. Would it be possible from IV to get the latest contribution totals?

Thanks!

Yes, Any idea on when this bill come on the floor?

My attorney got the receipt notices in the mail today. See my signature below.

in contributions and in any thing else... I started contributing even before lot of people here heard about IV.

good joke!!!!!!!!

my 2cents suggestion...

1) Can we advertise about this rally in our grocery shops....
2) Can we bring our family memembers also.......

1. Sure you can.
2. The more the better!!

Done..

Macaca,

Franklin is a her not him. She is our Northern California group coordinator. I will convey your message but I am pretty sure she might already have gotten it by reading it here on the forum

Franklin here - don't worry Macaca I just like reminding people occasionally when things get out of order :)

I couldn't make it unfortunately (short notice and had, ironically, my FP appointment at the same time in a different city). But I'm glad that some people did.

I guess I'm the unofficial coordinator of Nor Cal I just get conference calls together every now and then :rolleyes:

United states postal service. My lawyer sent it on june 29 and to this day it's a mestry to me how it was delivered at 10:10 pm at night. I did not think anybody would accept it. BUt if they were working on 25000 in 48 hours. The only reason i think they took it is to finish the number of visa available.
still It does not mean anything ... they can reject it.

Anyone with filing date on July 27, post on http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=14095

Thanks
