PTO: planned time off

The reason for my saying so....this election is different from others. Very tight race and either party do not want to pass any bill that would negatively affect the results.

Our problem is the least of the problems the country is facing right now.
They would pass bill which would stimuate economy not help EB3 folks(who already have EADs) to get GC and make them sleep easily.

So let us be patient. Even if we get GCs...it is not useful for either parties....because we cannot vote.

Secondly, GOVT would lose EAD renewal, AP revenue etc.

So let us get out the illusion that our bills would be passed....it is not going to help the ailing economy. It might help lawyers to earn some good bucks.

I disagree...

In the United States, anything is possible...even if we don't have votes, this is a society that is run on money. If we are able to raise enough funds, we can cause many things to happen (like support candidate's for elections that are pro-immigration).

Again this is the "Land of the brave"....

Good find - shows the plight of legal immigrants.

A bit of nitpicking - actually the chart is underestimating the time for EmploymentBased / skilled immigrants wait - says 11-16 years to get citizenship sort of suggesting 16 years is the worst case scenario to get citizenship. Its a bit underestimate especially for people coming from India/China. I have seen many people (including me) on these forums who entered US "legally" ten years ago and still waiting for GC with no idea when they would finally get it. Some of them might finally get citizenship 20 years after entering the country "legally".

On the whole it shows the reality of legal immigration and its waiting times.

Add wait time or prev unsuccesful attempts of paplying 485... So you can add... addition 4-5 years., fore unlucky people like me to be able to apply for a GC Application :D

People like your (friend's) wife are a shame to the legal immigration community. We come here to work hard and make a better living. I don't think, this woman deserve to be admitted back to the US and I am not sorry to be rude in this case.
Please.... come on... you are a highly skilled immigrant... you can do better than this... I'm waiting... please spend the rest of the work day to come up with something.

I will move the thread. But I plead that please keep this thread. We are together for a cause and should not limit ourselves only to immigration. This shows that we also active as a social group.

I Agree. Guys not to be mean or anything but let us please restrict ourselves to IMMIGRATION related matters ONLY.

Also whoever started the thread pls start the thread in the miscallaneous section and NOT under IV Agenda and Legislative Updates

You guys still dont get it..do you??
Why would they ban non-immigrants from investing when there is ZERO loss for the country?
Its upto each individual to evaluate their priorities and go ahead and move their investments. I have already done it as I am just an alien waiting for permanent residency and I do not want my money stuck in any of the investment vehicles in a foreign land making it difficult for me to take it along with me when the day comes to leave the country.

Well for the why part...Its absurd, I understand. But then why is there country limit? Why is H4 not same as L2? There are absurdities and depends on the perspective you look from.

Why would they ban?? If they have compelling point like "To protect Americans assets against speculation and to preserve capital within the country".

I also see that it is individual's prerogative, however the point here is to show some numbers we (L1, H1, EADs) are responsible for & hopefully, grease the wheels towards smoother status adjustments.

I am sure IV (which is WE) do not need sarcasm (asli_vdl_rao or what ever). Also, I think IV very much needs guys like you leoindiano and a recurring $25 contribution is not that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things. You have been a great proponent of this cause by supporting it

What do you say leoindiano?

bumping it....I need some links guys

I agree - some links guys. An EAD and AP last only for 1 year. After that I expect we would have to pay for a renewal

I am collecting all the documents and I will do premium processing but would like to get clarification regarding the rule.

I heard that " Labour should be filed 365 days before, whether approved or not" and that will automatically allow you to have 1 year extension.

Is this correct?

Got CPO on Sept 1st and nothing after that.

Is this freaking normal :p

I just want to let every1 know that I'm happy for what I am today and will always think positive and be happy.

Please understand that $1,290 is not a reason to stay unhappy. Also, it's not a small amount and it can be used for good cause, like Charity.

Thanks to InTheMoment for bringing it up..... that's what I had in mind too.

I am happy to hear and see that you are happy.

Now can you please close the thread, this is wasted energy flying everywhere.
Again its not you, its the actions ( including now when i am typing a response).
Please close this thread. Please, please.

thank you duttasurajit for the link.

This letter is superb, we should include a copy of in our materials for lawmakers -- because it highlights the black box issue at the BECs

A US company is a US company, be it Microsoft, or Cap Gemini, or whatever. For all you know, you may be working with Oracle's consulting division. Are you considered direct employee for Oracle or from a consulting company?

I have friends from Microsoft and Oracle who just got approved after 7 years + in EB2. I also know people from Consulting companies who got approved in 4 years.

I do not think there is any logic or facts to support this argument.

Hello Folks,

We have an excellent opportunity to set-up an IV booth. Details are posted on So Cal yahoo group with the link in my signature.

Venue: Diwali Mela, San Diego.
Date: Saturday, November 10th.
Target: A whopping 5000 visitors for recruitment and educational purposes.

I am looking for at least 4 So Cal volunteers/shift to take responsibility for 2 hour shifts at the booth. If San Diego/Orange County/LA members take turns in the booth shifts that day, this goal is achievable!

PLEASE SIGN-UP on the yahoo groups spreadsheet.

Thank you in advance! :)

Seems like a convulated issue. You would be better advised by consulting an immigration lawyer asap. Check with your lawyer if you have one. Sheela Murthy, Rajiv Khanna, Sonal Verma or Shusterman are some of the popular names in immigration law. You could try to get a consulting appointment with one of them asap. Typically they will study the case & discuss the case with you and suggest options. Typical consulting fee varies from $200 to $ 400 for one session.

This is the latest on my LIN number ...

Response to request for evidence received, and case processing has resumed.

What does it mean ... Any Ideas folks ...

I understand everyone is anxious but this is simple language. I am sure you can 'decipher' it

Hi,

I called npr at the "media relations" number and spoke to a Representative.
He gave me the TALK number as mentioned above.

I am going to Canada tomorrow for my H-1 stamping. My passport expires in Jan 2008 though (less than a year left!!). I assume that I will get a 3-year visa stamp.
However, when I re-enter the US, I guess the I-94 I get will have an expiration date that matches my passport expiration date rather than my H1B visa expiration date. Am I correct in assuming this?
Is there such a thing as an I-94 extension, and if so how easily does it get approved. Thank you so much, but I am getting really worried right now.
You can always file for visa extension again...never heard of a I-94 extension as such....I think they might give you a proper I-94 for the whole valid duration...Anyway you can get a new passport booklet in US from consulate fairly quickly...
When you come back...Please post what happened to you ....

Hello,

Congrats! Apart from a nice party and some shopping, celebrate by becoming a donor to IV ... help those who are still behind ...
