Wait a minute…. You guys have a problem if someone else is getting GC even though you guys very well know how much difficult it is to wait for the long process to finish. I am completely stunned to read some of the posts on the forum as these posts are always looking for parity with this or that group. Some posts say “why undocumented are getting GC after paying 10K as we have been paying taxes for years”, some posts simple whine as to why L-1 get to file in EB-1 etc etc. Is there an end to this unnecessary complaining and this urge to always looking for parity, sometimes with the privileged and sometimes with the under privileged? Some posts are always looking for “fairness” whatever "fairness" means to the individual situation, and then, blame the rest of the world around for delay with their green card process. I think we ought to grow-up and stop complaining about someone else getting their green card. We ought to stop complaining about all the wrong things that may be going on our lives and we should get serious about making phone calls and meeting with the lawmakers. I do not intent to start a flame war and my intent is not to offend anybody either, just trying to point out that we could be happier and effective if we stop whining and complaining. It would also help to create a more positive and constructive environment on the forums.

Why every discussion has to end with donate - why donate? What IV has done so far? Where the money goes? EB2 vs EB3... etc. Stop hijacking threads.
.
I wonder if this is one of the rogue users from another forum. this is tiring to post everyday, but here are IVs acheivements:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum2-retrogression-priority-dates-and-visa-bulletins/1707445-dec-visa-bulletin.html#post2100101
well the so called hijacking - The very fact this website is even up is because of donors.
Also I contribute $100 a month and don't get any money from IV. We are all volunteers.
We are all immigrants working on a campaign.
I see that the ones who don't want to do any work start complaining and blame every one else who is contributing. And you want to attack IV and donors!
Also see the yahoo video posted above.
Of course no one is forcing you to donate, you can just go around complaining, accusing and attacking everyone for the next 10 years instead.

Does this forum software have a buddy list / block list feature?
I have seen this on other forums and the block list might be a nice feature to help block irrelevant people / messages. :o
This may even stop some of the fights :eek:
Yes you can add friends using the 'Contacts & Friends' link under 'Networking'
and there is an ignore list under 'Settings and Options' in your Control Panel

It's very unfortunate! But I don't think other Indian IT companies (or Indian s/w industry in general) are in trouble! Which country does n't have its own share of such incidents?.....US also has seen it's own Enron & WorldComs!!

When money is in excess of $10,000, there are several applicable rules.
~ It must be reported to treasury, it transfer in a year is more than $10,000.
~ It must be reported to treasury, at any time foreign bank account had money in excess of $10,000.
And of course:
~ Interest in foreign banks and earning in foreign stocks must be reported as income on US returns (any world-wide income).
There are many violations, and perhaps IRS is unable to chase defaulters. People enjoy defaulting and not reporting.

gimme_my_gc, do you have EAD?
If yes then.. you are NOT out of status...only worry would be Annual W2 salary of your needs to be around gross specified in Labor..
Hi All,
I just joined this site today and wanted to get some input on the following situation:
My current situation is:
Working for a company ABC
completed 6 years on H1 and currently in the 7th year extension
Green card in process for more than a year - Eb3 with PD Jun 2002, I-140 approved
Can extend H1B again in about 6 months, for a 3 year extension
The question I have is , if one has a valid extended H1B for the 7th year and beyond, what happens if one were to lose their job during the extended H1B period, without getting their GC?
1) Can they continue to stay till the end of the extended H1B period by applying for a job with another company?
2) Or should they leave the USA as the first 6 years have been completed without getting a GC, and the extended H1B period would become invalid as soon as they lose the job with the company that processed the extended H1B?
Any input is appreciated. Thanks for your time.

I am in a similar situation. My current H1B and my wife's H4 expire on June 20th, 2007. I have filed for my 7th year extension as well as my wife's H4 extension in Dec 2006. I got receipt notices for both the application with a notice date of Dec 21st, 2006.
I am planning to apply for my wife's H4-H1 in April this year under premium processing and I was wondering what would happen to her H4 application if her H1 petition gets approved first. Will she be out-of-status between June 21 and Sept 30, as her H1 would start on Oct 1st. Also, what happens to her H1 if her H4 is approved after H1.
Any thoughts.

If 200 more people contribute, we can open an UK branch of IV to address issues faced by high skilled immigrants (who can't even pay 20 bucks a month) in UK. May be these high skilled immigrants are very low paid since they can't even afford 20 bucks a month for this noble cause.
Please dont be rubbish to others. your suggestion to open another thread which make sense. BUT your contribution request and even talking their affordability to 20 bucks are too much talking.

what is the deadline for the final letter and when can we start the campaign.
Also I would really appreciate if someone can post the instruction on how to send the fax.. step by step so that the non IT layman also can do that.
Please keep bumping this post and put a poll on this thread or start a thread just to get the count on how many did it.
But...I'm not comfortable with subject, that is starting with a question.. ( reply to svn's post)
IMO, it might backfire as...'What da xxxx is in it for legal immigrants?'( depending upon ones mood at that time)
I'm more for a lowered tone...request, that is.
Thanks hsingh82! for the post and validating the site.

Thank you all for your suggestions and they are helpful.
I would wait for one or two months for the next FY visa bulletins and decide on starting my new labour in EB2.
Thank you again.
If your current/future job is eligible for EB-2, you have the qualifications to meet the job requirement and your employer is willing to start EB-2 process, I would get the process started as soon as possible. With your current EB-3 PD, I dont see anything changing in the next 1 to 2 months. You might as well start it now so you can complete the PERM documentation and advertising phase and file PERM in 2-3 months duration instead of waiting. Thats my 2 cents.

Guys, I think we should have some media coverage for the USCIS and DOS actions. Since immigration news has been hot in the media for a while. It will be easy to get channels to cover this story.
Send emails to news channels to cover the story. You can quote the story from AILA
Administration Slams Door on Thousands of Legal Immigrants: AILA Condemns Agencies� Bait and Switch

WASHINGTON, D.C.--The American Immigration Lawyers Association strongly condemns the bait and switch perpetrated by the federal government on thousands of intending immigrants who have waited in line for years and were following the rules for obtaining a "green card."
On June 13, 2007, the U.S. State Department announced that, as of July 2, individuals seeking permanent residence ("green cards") through employer sponsorship finally would be allowed to proceed with their applications. Applicants would have a short window, possibly only through July or perhaps August, to complete their paperwork.
Those intending immigrants, immediately and at great expense, rushed to gather final documents, complete their paperwork and obtain required medical exams. Many sent their applications off on Friday, June 29 for arrival on July 2 at the Department of Homeland Security, for the last phase of the multi-step process that leads to a green card.
However, on the very day the door was to open, DOS and DHS slammed it shut.
On July 2, DHS and DOS announced-based on no different information than they had on June 13 when they announced the opening of this filing door-that all applications would be turned away.
"People ask why those who come to the United States illegally can't just follow the rules," said Kathleen Campbell Walker, President of the American Immigration Lawyers Association. "But here people followed the rules and did everything right, yet without warning or explanation the door was slammed in their faces. This hoax perpetrated by these two government agencies is unconscionable, and is an example of how badly our immigration system is broken."
AILA calls on the Administration to do the right thing and keep its promise to the people affected by this sudden reversal. AILA also calls on Congress to get it right this time and fix our badly broken system.

In Kansas there is a strangely different rule. They give in-state but show the balance amount between in-state and out of state as scholarship given to the individual in a separate 1098 T tax form. This increases your taxes slightly and the individual cannot claim education credits in the tax return.

I guess its much better for frauds to have an EAD/AP, then they can easily bypass the checking at consulates.
For them there are strict check at airports.

Hi guys,
I have booked an online visa appointment (Chennai consulate) on Feb 26th.
Help me with what is all required for Visa stamping.
Anything to be really careful about?
Any tips will be highly appreciated.

Olny thing is this time my I-140 is approved and I have disclosed that info in my application. I am hoping that nothing will go wrong. PM me if you want feedback after my interview.
