This is law and requirement is mandatory. One does NOT have the option of not reporting.
Read this -
Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts (FBAR) (http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=148849,00.html)
The reasoning *could* be that foreign banks don't have same reporting requirements as US banks have. Also, source of funds in the foreign banks is not limited to funds from US banks.
In addition, interest earned must be reported in US taxes, even if it was taxed in other country. One can claim deduction for the tax paid in the other country.
I suggest that you talk to CPA of your choice and get yourself educated.

I agree with what you said completely. Just talked with a fiend of mine who is here on a family based GC. He had absolutely no clue about this and I belive a lot of Indian community might not be aware of this. I would be surprised if there are any Indian GC/H1bs without some account in India. I had kind of ignored this but now it is kind of feakin me out a bit. Today being the 28th.

Guys here is what I found on page 5 of the 12 page AC21 document
--------------------------------------
Should service centers or district offices request proof of “ability to pay” from successor employers in I-140 portability cases, in other words, from the new company/employer to which someone has ported?
Answer: No. The relevant inquiry is whether the new position is in the same or similar occupational classification as the alien’s I-140 employment. It may be appropriate to confirm the legitimacy of a new employer and the job offer through an RFE to the adjustment applicant for relevant information about these issues. In an adjustment setting, public charge is also a relevant inquiry.
--------------------------------------------------
Here is another important thing for people wanting to use AC-21
Question 11. When is an I-140 no longer valid for porting purposes?
Answer: An I-140 is no longer valid for porting purposes when:
Memorandum for Service Center Directors, et al.
Subject: Interim Guidance for Processing Form I-140 Employment-Based Immigrant Petitions and Form I-
485 and H-1B Petitions Affected by the American Competitiveness in the
Twenty-First Century Act of 2000 (AC21) (Public Law 106-313) Page 7
A. an I-140 is withdrawn before the alien’s I-485 has been pending 180 days, or
B. an I-140 is denied or revoked at any time except when it is revoked based on a withdrawal that was submitted after an I-485 has been pending for 180 days.

E. EMPLOYMENT-BASED VISA AVAILABILITY DURING THE COMING MONTHS
All Employment Preference categories except for Third �Other Workers� have been made �Current� for July. This has been done in an effort to generate increased demand by Citizenship and Immigration Services (CIS) for adjustment of status cases, and to maximize number use under the annual numerical limit. However, all readers should be alert to the possibility that not all Employment preferences will remain Current for the remainder of the fiscal year. Should the rate of demand for numbers be very heavy in the coming months, it could become necessary to retrogress some cut-off dates for September, most likely for China-mainland born and India, but also possibly for Mexico and Philippines. Severe cut-off date retrogressions are likely to occur early in FY-2008.

Las Dec. I got a mail asking for more information about the package we sent (since we opened a service request at Nov.) we sent delivery notice, copy of checks, copy of main forms (e.g. I-140 approve notice) etc. and was told to wait for another 45 days after they got our response. Again the endless wait ...
We did not get response from the congressman (Van Hollen) we contacted ...
I am not as lucky and maybe they would never find my package ... What kind of refile address and instruction you got that you could kindly share?
Many thanks!

Hi everybody
Thank you for the info broadcaster, I'll keep it on hand, just in case.
Today I received a fax from NSC :eek:
They acknowledge that they've received my fax and they're requesting me to provide them with a copy of the checks cashed by uscis (front and back) to help them locate my case, stating that they're unable to locate my applications or an A number for me in their systems.
:(
Any updates for anyone on the list? Please update.

I will attend the rally and the lobby day with my wife and two daughters.
Question to proponents of business suits - my younger daughter is 6 months old; what should she wear as a business suit? The elder one is 3� years and she doesn't have one!
Let this not be a fancy dress competition. Why are we talking about the dress code right now in the first place? Is that the only decision left to be made?
Shantanup, We are NOT making this a fancy dress competition. Are you really going to argue about making your 2 kids wear business suits now? Or are we just trying to be difficult? The point here is that we want to clearly distinguish ourselves from the "Undocumented/Illegal" immigrants. One "CLEAR AND DISTINCT" way to do this is to dress in Business Suits, thereby sending the message to the lawmakers that:
"We are well educated, smart and intelligent people who can contribute to the economy **AND** we have waited in line the CORRECT WAY. So Please stop putting people who have broken the law ahead of us".
We are NOT dressing is suits to be "FANCY". I cant believe what I am reading on here, when you ask "should I dress my kids in suits too"? Let me ask you some counter questions to that one:
1) Are your kids facing the same problems you are, when it comes to immigration-related policies?
2) At their tender age, can they be counted as "Highly-Skilled Legal Immigrants?
3) Are the kids even "immigrants" or are they citizens of the US?
4) ...... (the list goes on).

Most of the insurances will not pay for the immigration physical, but if you can go to a primary care physician for a routine history and physical as part of routine care he/she can check all the antibody titers, PPD, chest X Ray if needed, can give you shots if needed and this will be covered by the insurance depending on the plan. Then you can go for the immigration physical with those documents and can avoid paying for those extras.

See if it helps:
There is a law of portability. You can change your employer after 180 days from the approval date of your I-140 or 365 days after approval of your labor certificate. In your situation, under the portability law, you do not have to file a new I-140. You should immediately file your I-485/I-765 and attach the approved I-140 notice with your petition. There is no need to mention that the company is closed. This reference would be made only at the time of your interview for Green Card. Filing of New I-140 is out of question. I-140 can only be filed by an employer with an accompanying approved labor Cert. Just file your I-485 petition on June 1.
Welcome aboard new member. Can you please send the web fax. Will take a minute of your time...

The Honorable Terri Lynn Land,
I am shocked and very disturbed by the news I read about the new requirement for obtaining driving license in the state of Michigan which allows only Citizens and Permanent residents to obtain licenses.
I am a legal immigrant working in US since 1998. I have been living in Michigan since 2003 and own a home in the state. I am on a temporary h1b visa working towards by permanent residency. I have been in the process since 2002 with no end in sight due to tremendous backlog in this process. While we are waiting for our residency application to get processed, we are caught in a situation where we cannot claim to be permanent residents. We do not carry driver license from our home country anymore as I have been living in this country and driving with US license for 10 years.
I do not know what you expect us to do in this condition. This is the first state in the whole country with such a requirement. Every state I have lived in gives driver licenses to legal residents for the validity of their Visas.
I hope you understand the problems legal immigrants will face due to this new requirement and make necessary changes to allow legal residents to obtain licenses to work and live in Michigan.
Thanks & Regards

I was thinking as to why is there such lack of participation in IV campaigns.
One reason could be that majority of people need to be motivated individually to participate.
Can state chapters individually work on members in their groups? Chapters leaders can call for some volunteers within their state who are willing to contact other members personally to encourage them to participate.
I have recently moved to detroit area from Illinois and will be joining Michigan chapter.

Its Very simple,
Some people prefer to Live in HOTEL, Some people prefer to live in HOUSE, I am staying in HOTEL just for my business and other un avoidable circumtences.
Don't compare the Hotel and House interms of Comfort, Luxury etc.etc.. Everyone knows which will be good in those parameters.
In all these discussions don't put BS about our mother nation.
If you want to live here just live, If you want to go Just go. you does not have tell BSs about our mother nation.
