CIS director is saying that he has made arrangements to pass on the flowers set to CIS office to the US war-wounded soldiers.
I think we should start a blood donation campaign to impress upon him that aspiring immigrants will not be found lacking in caring for the US army soldiers.
Any thoughts?
It could be a good idea, however there are various restrictions that we might be caught out by including:-
Living in Europe (most countries)
Travel within 12 months to malaria countries (including India)
Living in Malaria countries within last 3 years (including India)
MMR within the last 4 weeks
Any conditions found in the medical report.
the list goes on...
I've tried donating blood before and have been denied through the 1st and 2nd point

One does NOT need EAD to use AC21. I don't understand the panic.
In fact, one can be working at Employer B and can claim AC-21 for Employer C as a future job.

Permanent Resident since May 2002
If you don't need EAD to use AC21 whats the use of EAD for the primary applicant?
I was not planning to change company and just filed my 485 without EAD last week. But now situation has changed and the lawyer said i need EAD if i want to use AC21 after 6 months. I'm hoping to get a receipt notice soon so that i can file for EAD without the increased fees. Anybody has any link to where it says we don't need EAD for AC21 so i can check with my lawyer?

How bad it can be for those with approved I-140?
Earlier it was 140K times 7% = 9800 with everybody and now it is 90K times 10% = 9000 with most of them gone into new merit based system.
I still don't get it?
Bad for retrogressed.... backlog will increase phenomenally 'cos of decreased visa numbers
This bill is a massive attack on us; we should put all our efforts to oppose and kill the bill. There is little chance that we can get amendments to reverse the potential damage that this bill can do... that is disaster for us.

That one phrase in your LC requirement could turn out to be a life saver for you. Can you further clarify the educational/experience requirements mentioned in LC. Was it Masters or equivalent with zero experience OR Bachelors with 5 yrs of progressive experience? Your educational evaluation should meet atleast one of the requirements mentioned in the LC. Either Masters or Bachelors + 5 yrs exp. I think for your educational background (non 4 yr BS degree), I feel more comfortable with getting the evaluation done to satisfy the BS + 5 yrs requirement rather than going for Masters equivalent. NSC is known to be strict w.r.t 3 yr BS degree when it comes to EB-2 cases. However, since your initial evaluation showed you as holding a masters equivalent, I am not sure if its a good idea now to try to defend your case with BS + 5 yrs equivalence. A good attorney would be able to guide you through with this. I also suggest you to consult any reputed attorney regarding this and get feedback on your company attorney's plans and not just blindly follow what your company attorney says.
This dude DOES NOT have a Bachelors Degree. He menstions that he has a 3-Year Diploma (not a 3 Year Degree Course like B.Sc, or BCA). So, his chances are slim. He was probably hired by a desi shyster who promised him a greencard in return for subsistence wages.

You cannot keep GC out of equation when GC/non-GC decides your ability to get unemployment benefits, choice of jobs and many more aspects of your life.
If you leave the country, you lose the equity on the house. I don't know when you bought
the house. In the post credit bubble period, the lender will make sure you have enough equity that they are secure and you have skin in the game.
Bought my home in early 2008 on 100% financing (yeah, they had these crazy schemes back then!) before the economy tanked. So I havent put down any money. Even the closing costs were paid by the seller. For me its not an investment, but a place to live. So I am not worried about the equity. The home isnt a McMansion and the mortgage payment is manageable. When tax savings at year end are considered, it almost puts me on par with renting.
On the other hand, I dont put GC on a pedestal. I bought my home even before I had started GC process. To me it is not a life changing event like the day I was born or my wedding day or the birth day of my kid. Its something good to have for obvious benefits, but I am not holding my breath until I get it. Once again, I reiter that factoring GC into your decisions is a personal choice, and I dont do it. I am not banking on unemployment benefits or any other govt dole. Like I said, if anything were to go wrong and I had to leave the country for good, my lender will be the one taking the hit. This might not be the case in your situation and I can understand why GC would be so important then.

Criminal lawyers charge exorbitant fees and they dont do anything. There is a free show in kgo in bay area (http://www.kgoradio.com/) by a lawyer named as Len Tillem (www.lentillem.com). You tell your issue in the radio show and he can give you valuable suggestions. His program runs everyday from 12 to 1pm and in sundays from 3 to 7pm... Go checkout...

Hi,
I have my I-140 (approved in May 07) approved from my previous employer. I am not sure whether he has revoked it or not. I am now working as full time employee with another company. How can i find out if my I-140 was revoked or not? I am yet to file a New PERM, i already got a PERM denial after joining this new employer :( looks like i have to file one more... This looks like a infinte loop :(
Thank you,
IR.
You can subscribe to CRIS email for status updates. But sometimes you may not get the email. The letter may directly go to your ex employer's Attorney.
Even if you get a NOID, it may go to your ex employer's Attorney. We all know this employer attorney nexus - they are ready to screw you.

Core members,
I think flowers comaign is a good idea. But I wanted to know why don't we send letters and emails to Mr.Aytes and USCIS Director and probably HEads of DOS to issue the 182,000 unused visas since 2000 now so USCIS can work on those visas from July to October.
NYTimes article mentioned that DOS officials did not want this years number wasted like the 182,000 visas got unused since 2000.
Can someone come up with a writing so we can all send emails and postals mails with this request.

good point. let's start doing it then...
just my opinion..but festive occasions bind us as a community and yes that includes Eid and Christmas and the Chinese new year.
Diwali celebrates the victory of good over evil, let's hope we can all bask soon in a festival of lights by getting some relief from retrogression....
actually...and this is just me nitpicking now...Diwali is technically a Hindu festival not an Indian festival (since 20% of Indians are not Hindu), so the complaint may be more accurate if you point to the religious aspect...
Of course it is widely celebrated in India...and the UK and going by the White house greetings and the huge melas ...in the US :-)
"Happy Diwali" to anybody on this forum who accepts the Hindu faith.
I don't think wishing Happy Diwali to fellows of a common faith qualifies as hate mongering; same as a Muslim wishing a fellow Muslim "Eid Mubarak" or a Christian wishing a fellow Chrisitian "Merry Christmas" does not qualify as hate mongering.
All said and done this is an open forum where potential immigrants to this country (where there is a long history of separation of state and religion) are free to express their opinion.
USA has certainly benefited from having different cultures live together side by side (within the realm of a common civil and criminal law). Suppression of cultures is more in tune with the ertswhile Soviet policy of suppression of various cultures (Georgian, Ukrainian, the list goes on); and we all know what happpened to Soviet Russia.
There is no reason potential legal immigrants of different faith should not open a new thread to wish people of fellow faith on commonly celebrated festivals. There is no great reason to pursue political correct speak to the degree where you would have to create a common greeting message if we want to wish "Happy Diwali" to fellow Hindus.
People of different faiths certainly have the freedom to post a similar message. After all the pool of potential legal immigrants is far and wide.
And I would certainly be happy for fellow Chinese, Muslims, Chrisitians, Buddhists, Jains, Sikhs, Native Americans, Mexicans, Portuegese, Spanish, Greeks, Albanians, Croats, Serbs, Basque, Irish, SriLankan, Bangladeshis, Eritreans, Ethiopians, Somalis, Germans, French, Bralizians, Colombian, Ecuadarean, Argentinians, Chilean, Haitians, West Indians (the list is incomplete mind you) when somebody from their community puts up a message wishing their fellows the arrival of a happy community event.
The voice of these communities is the "Voice" of "Immigration". It would be foolhardy to try to suppress this voice in favor of political correct speak.
We are all working toward the same goal (pursuit of happiness); denial of one's culture and simple traditions is not in tune with this pursuit.
Just my 2 cents.
Regards.

When law abiding persons are prevented from gun ownership; crime goes up. Because whether it is legal or not, criminals always have guns.
Actually very true. I for one have held off on buying a gun (though my wife highly disapproves of guns) simply because I dont have a GC and dont want any hassles. Besides I live in Chicago which has a ban on guns. Ironic that the maximum killings and drive by shootings happen maybe 30-40 blocks from where I live but the city doesnt allow legal law-abiding residents to own guns.

Can anyone tell me how to open an SR so that I can expedite my application on the basis of financial loss. I have applied for AP in august 2010 and I have travel plans in 1st week of December. Thanks in advance.

There are no bills being discussed. House as well as senate are on recess and will convine after Sept 10th. After it reconvenes, between 10th sept and Oct 8th - it has a lot of tasks at hand, and no apetite for any big and controversial issues like immigration. Mid term elections are in early nov and nobody wants controversial bills debated just before that. Morover it has been made clear that GOP does not want any immigration bills except "fencing the border". Democrats do not have required votes for cloture.
So, nothing is going to happen on the immigration front- legislatively untill after nov elections. Attitudes towards this issue will change and more GOP Lawmakers wil favor talking about this after. It will be a different ball-game depending on who keeps the majority. In the lame-duck there might be a chance.
August/Labor Day Recess
House - August 9 � September 12
Senate August 9 � September 10
Target Adjournment:
House - October 8
Senate - TBD
So, between now and the lame-duck session, if we can educate lawmakers- especially now- since they are comming back home and to their constituents in the recess. Most of them have town-hall meetings arranged and want to hear from their constituents. It will be good to make ourselves visible and heard.
Good info. Thanks! Gave you green!

I think we should wait for the lame duck session to finish, to make any predictions. Because if there are any new last minute stunt on anything non-immigration, then for the next 6 months or so for the new house, they will be discussing this new stunt. Immigration will take the backseat.

Yes the initial reason for denial is bogus, but they may still deny it because of "too restrictive requirements"
What do you mean by "too restrictive requirements"?? so do you think I will be better off finding another job with a different company so I can apply for a new PERM (EB2) or just wait for the appeal that is now over 6 months??
Also, I know that the reviewing officer is supposed to review my appeal request and send a copy to the appeal board so they can make a decision but he/she has not done that because I convinced the HR in my company to call the board of appeal and they said they haven't received my appeal request from the reviewing officer ( he was supposed to send it within 30 days). he has had my appeal request for over 6 months. I am not sure what to do at this stage. I feel like I am stuck.[/QUOTE]
This is how they sabotage it! By the rule you must send the appeal to the same office that denied your PERM. Then they must send the appeal file to BALCA (and a copy to the employer IMMEDIATELY), but they pretend they never received it from you, I guess. They violate the law, but I don't know if we can do anything. Assembly the appeal file yourself and write to BALCA that you did file the appeal with the center (you have a proof that the mail has delivered it, right?) but it was them who, in violation of the law, haven't forwarded it to BALCA yet. 6 months can not be considered IMMEDIATE under any circumstances.

There is nothing to discuss on this. Just take the cash to any national bank SBI or ICICI or UTI and ask them i want to wire trasfer to US bank account. They ask you to fill up wire trasnfer form by giving US bank accout and routing numbers. They just do it by taking some fee for wire transfer. Thats it. You will get into your US bank account in a day. Thats for sure. I did this number of times. I don't know, you guys make it complex everything, by saying NRE/NRO/RBI etc. It just damn simple, do wire transfer.
Rupee is not yet fully convertible! So if its a big amount (dont remember the upper limit) you cannot wire... The only way you can do get it is for education or medical reasons. Lookig at the way the dollar is tanking I wouldnt be surprised if the rupee becomes fully convertible sooner that initially planned!

I am planning to file EAD/AP for my wife who is on H4 along with adjustment of status application. Will she continue on her H4 status till she gets EAD/AP?
She will continue on H4 status until she uses EAD (by filing I-9 with an employer when she starts working). At that point, her H4 is automatically invalid and she is then on EAD. Until then she can be on H4. Same rule applies to H1.
