Dear Members,
We are working hard to assist our members coming to DC for the advocacy days. Many members have been helped by local DC members by providing accommodation in their homes.
We are trying very hard to manage the high expense of this event ranging from booking a conference room in a hotel near Capitol hill, printing and buying bulk media drives for each meeting, organizing a press event to Congressional reception expenses. Our budget is $50 thousand dollars for the entire event and we are struggling to meet this goal. Our minimum budget for these events is 50K budget. At this time we have received around $7,500 dollars as contribution from IV members, and we wholeheartedly Thank every who has contributed. But we need everyone to step up to the plate and do their fare share. We have a tough road ahead and we need every one to help for their ow cause. In the past IV Team had spent their personal resources to get the effort going and have our voices heard. We are all working hard to organize these events despite some of the core members already getting their Green card holders. It is now up to each member how valuable they view this effort and can stand up for themselves. Each one of us is participating this effort for own self rather than doing any favor to others or to IV. Please donate generously for this event so that we can make it a success..
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum85-action-items-for-everyone/1534974-funding-drive-iv-needs-your-support-for-advocacy-events-in-dc.html
Travel:
Some members have approached us seeking help in their tickets. We are not in a position to pay for travel or arrange buses for anyone. We would like to help them by starting this thread and urging other members to donate their skymiles to others that are coming.
Please post on this thread if you are willing to donate your skymiles. An IV representative will keep a tab on all skymiles and connect both the donor and recipient after verifying that the recipient will be coming to Dc and using these skymiles only for the advocacy days for himself.
We have a member from a state where we do not have many members and needs American Airlines miles. He would need more than 1 lakh miles. There are a few more in our list.
Carpool:
If you are driving to DC, please post so that others can carpool with you.
Accommodation in DC
IV urges local DC members to volunteer and provide accommodation to guest members from other states in their homes. Please post on this thread if you would like to open your homes for other IV friends.

Air India has the newest Boeing 777 LR non stop from JFK to Mumbai and Delhi. You can get tickets as cheap as 1000 usd roundtrip in economy.
Cheapest business class where you can SLEEP! 3500 USD roundtrip to India. Find a cheaper business class where you can actually sleep and let me know.
Best food! undoubtedly. New entertainment system with lots of Indian movie options.
I am not sure if old sayings apply to Air India.
Also we have jet airways , whose international service is in same class as singapore airlines, emirates and virgin atlantic.
So why are we wasting time with such moronic european airliners? who cant let us sleep one night in their country.
This year, I flew Lufthansa as that was the most viable option for me. The flight from Germany to Mumbai was substandard but the service was ok, cant complain. People were friendly at the german airport.
In 2004 or 05, I flew air france one way on reward ticket, the FAs were rude to Indian customers but overall flight experience was smooth , comfortable and without hassle. People at french airport were ok.
The lufthansa ticket was 1640 rountrip. I also considered air france, first they quoted me 2200 USD and then said, if I could compromise and flew alternate dates, fare would be 1840. The ticket agent sounded as if he was doing me a favour. No wonder when I showed up at the airport, the air farnce flight was almost empty whereas there was a big rush on lufthansa.
CHANDU - I see airline is responsible for this. It is their duty to prevail on authorities otherwise why are they asking for business from Indian customers? In 2004 Delta used to fly via france and my brother had missed connection, he was provided hotel by delta in france for one night. Good that delta got fed up with european visa rules and started new non stop service.

because
1. the sponsors are current Judiciary cmtee chairman and
the past repub judicial cmtee chairman- both are very
influential senators, not push overs.
2. Senator from Washington has heard earful from the
tech lobby.
3. Our buddy Sen Cornyn is also a sponsor.
4.It restores provisions for EB-1, outstanding professors, etc.
NO SENATOR WILL WANT HIS/HER NAME ON THERE TO GUT THIS
AMENDMENT ENTIRELY. AT THE MOST THEY MAY ONLY TRY TO DILUTE
some provisions.
Proposed Amendments to the Senate Bill
Late last week, Senators Maria Cantwell (D-WA), John Cornyn (R-TX), Patrick Leahy (D-VT) and Orrin Hatch (R-UT) announced an amendment to the Senate bill that would make important changes to several of the employment-related provisions of the Senate bill. With respect to immigrant visas, the amendment would restructure the proposed merit-based program to add several of the features of the current employment-based system. The amendment would add an employer sponsorship component, and would create programs equivalent to the first, second and third employment-based preference categories for foreign nationals of extraordinary ability, outstanding professors and researchers, multinational executives and managers, advanced degree professionals, foreign nationals of exceptional ability, and professional workers (though the amendment would not provide for an equivalent to the current "other worker" subcategory). The amendment would also restore the labor certification requirement for the second and third employment-based preference categories, but would not provide for a national interest waiver of the requirement.
In addition, the amendment proposes an additional 140,000 immigrant visa numbers for employer-sponsored merit immigrants, and would create a quota exemption for certain highly skilled immigrants who have at least three years of U.S. work experience.
Regarding the H-1B program, the amendment would eliminate the 20,000 ceiling on cap exemptions for foreign nationals holding advanced degrees from U.S. universities and create a new exemption for foreign nationals holding foreign advanced degrees in the sciences, technology, engineering or mathematics.
The amendment would also dispense with the Senate bill's expansion of the recruitment and non-displacement attestation requirement to all H-1B employers. Durbin& Grassley will not let this go that easily. At least some of the restrictions will be kept.

Dear Members,
We have worked hard in the last 4 years and have made some progress along the way Immigration Voice Achievements (http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=5&Itemid=47) But Most of us are still in the limbo of green card process and waiting in different stages. Some of us may have advanced to the I-485 stage and have a little more career flexibility but the hanging sword of uncertainty still looms over our heads.
Our angst, our insecurity:
Even with EAD and other options, lack of green card is lack of security and lack of certainty. You know it and you feel it every day. In order to find a permanent fix for the uncertainty, angst and insecurity and in order to snap out of the probationary lifestyle and career, we have to finish what we started over 4 years ago -- get the U.S. Congress to act on this problem and solve it once and for all.
Early effort wins:
The first agenda of next Congress will be immigration and we expect an immigration bill to be debated sometime in early 2011. However, it would be a big mistake to wait until that time to do something about that bill. Successful advocacy efforts are the ones that start early and introduce concepts and ideas into the debate before the legislators write their first draft. Once the committee hearings and debates begin, it is harder to get changes or fixes into a bill because it requires an amendment to the bill in a politically charged and heated atmosphere. Groups and organizations that wait until the last minute to influence members of congress often fail to achieve results. In order to succeed in next year's immigration bill, we have to begin talking to members of congress now. Remember, the advocacy efforts we did with lobby day and rally in Sept 2007 influenced congress to include our provisions in bipartisan bills introduced in Aug 2008. Legislative things take time.
How you can help:
You and help in two different ways:
Join the advocacy effort in DC on June 7th and 8th. (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum85-action-items-for-everyone/1437978-iv-announcement-advocacy-days-in-washington-dc-7th-and-8th-june.html) If you have never done this before, we encourage you to help us with this and join us. Immigration voice will arrange the logistics of setting up meetings and arranging the material for you to take to your Congressmen and Senators. We are expecting about 150 immigration voice members to gather in DC and participate in over 200 meetings with Congressmen and Senators.
Contributing Funds to help finance the effort (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum85-action-items-for-everyone/1534974-funding-drive-iv-needs-your-support-for-advocacy-events-in-dc.html). You are most welcome to come to DC and join us but if your job demands are such that you cannot take two days off on June 7th and 8th, then you can still contribute to this effort by contributing financially to Immigration Voice. Many expenses tied to the travel of grassroots members from distant states is being expensed by Immigration Voice. So kindly contribute funds to this effort by clicking on this link. You have an obligation to yourself and your family to plant your career in this country once and for all. EAD and AP, if you have them, are not going to cut it. We are not there yet. And we have to finish together what we started together.
Thank you.

Yes. Completely agreed.
I've an idea that I want to discuss at the Meet. It will not only help us show the World how much we contribute (real figures), but also get our group (state chapter) legitimacy in the eyes of Lawmakers. It also might get us some media attention. This and other ideas will be Exclusively premiered at the Meeting. So anybody interested, be there.
Anybody with great ideas - FIFO for GCs, Earned GCs (based on years in US) included, be there at the meet. We'll surely forward these ideas to the Core. If there's a great demand for these ideas at the grassroots, Core'll surely include these as their top agenda. So be there and share your ideas. Ideas will be put to vote and passed on to the Team IV. It's a great opportunity to network with like-minded individuals and push for your ideas.
You are being given a rare and valuable opportunity here. Use it! Don't crib later on IV forums that IV doesn't care. [ I'll be there, for sure, to ask you - Did you care about your state chapter meetings? If Not, why should we care for you?]
PS : Bestin, same here. Lets build a strong network in Michigan and succeed together.
Guys,
We also need to make the public aware what we contribute to the society.Not only our jobs,but also how we contribute to ssn,work without unemployment benefits (when compared to citizens),how much taxes we pay,etcs tatus of h4 dependents without driving licence and with all these stress we also do our job with a smile isnt?WE DEFINITELY NEED TO OVERCOME THE PUBLIC OPINION THAT WE ARE JUST HERE TO TAKEAWAY JOBS.
Rather than mentioning it as our right,we need to make people aware of how we contribute and why we deserve a green card.;)
My 2 cents.

Thank you all very much. Truly appreciate for providing all the necessary web links. Definitely I'd take the extra effort to complain to the Gov. of India and also start knocking on the doors.
Thanks to you all once again.
By the way, I was referring to Embassy of India, Washington DC.
When did you send your application.
I am in the same boat waiting for their call. :D

mirage,
Sometimes i believe in conspiracy theory but not this time. They just approved it fast because of improved processing in Texas - i'm also scared if they approve mine fast and i wont get 2 year as well.
Why - Because once you pay 340 from next time onwards its FREE. why they would increase load without any money :)
No it is NOT free from there on.
Btw I just got "screwed over" by the USCIS ;). I "missed" the June 30th deadline by 5 days. Our EADs got appoved today. If only the USCIS was as effieicient with 485s as it is with monetary screw overs :rolleyes:

No need to jump the gun. I didn't ask it at a personal level, in case you didn't understand it! Instead of nitpicking on a single statement, read the whole paragraph! I am a member of a state chapter and keep posting on the Yahoogroups, though it's been a month since anyone else posted there ( and I don't get any replies).
I'm not getting into personal level/ad hominem discussion as it's pointless. I don't need to prove anything to anybody.
I read and understood the whole paragraph with both "published" and "Hidden" messages what you wanted to convey. If you do not see much activity on your state forums, why do not you take the lead to reverse the course? That would be the right direction rather than suggesting to change the skeleton. Do you blame yourself (Since you are claiming yourself a member)for not having much activity in your state level? If not then problem lies there and that is my hint to you.

The main issue with Dems winning is that they will use the newly gained power to furthur their cause for 2008 presidency, but bringing down teh republicans. If taht takes priority which I fear it, immigration reform may go down the drain, as they try to retract all legislations passed by Bush, like tax cuts for oil Comapnies etc. and only work on potraying Republicans in a bad light.

There is no minimum number of weekly hours for an H1B petition. There are some H1B workers who hold several part-time positions. This is common particularly in academic settings where individuals may teach part time, or where a single position may be funded by more than one source. (This requires multiple part-time H1Bs.) Thus, potentially it would be possible to obtain an approval of an H1B for just a few hours per week.
�MurthyDotCom
Since nothing in the regulations specifies an amount of time each week that an H1B worker must work to remain in status, it is possible to be in status as an H1B worker with a part-time job. There is no guidance on this matter as to any minimum hourly requirements. There is some old guidance on H1B workers attending school, which states that it is permissible, but that the H1B employment must be the primary purpose for being in the United States. This might be helpful by analogy, but even this guidance does not specify hours.

Here we go again!
It can be shown that per country quota leads to (unintended) discrimation at employment and hence the GC per country quota is illegal.
Employment based GC per country quota => A very long wait (eg. more than 3 years) in same or similar job position for people born in only few countries => Hinderance to career growth because one cannot advance from engineer to managerial position even though he/she is qualified for the promotions while his colleagues from other countries can => Person from an oversubscribed countries such as India does not have equal opportunity to career advancement because of a very long wait time difference between people born in these 2 or 3 countries and people from all of the other countries.
Key Point: Equal opportunity employement advancement is protected by "Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII)" and hence the Supreme Court can overturn the per country quota limitation if the Supreme Court finds that the per country quota leads to discrimination at employment.
National Origin Discrimination & Work Situations:
The law forbids discrimination when it comes to any aspect of employment, including hiring, firing, pay, job assignments, promotions, layoff, training, fringe benefits, and any other term or condition of employment.

Someone with more than 3 years of wait and still in same or similar job description should definitely be able to file a lawsuit against the US Government and claim compensation for the lost opportunities.

Paskal,
Personally, I feel state chapters is a not-working concept. Having bigger chapters like TriState, Midwest... and better still 'East Coast chapter' is a face saver until we have sufficient numbers. There should we a minimum threshold say 40-50 [I'm keeping it low] members to sanction a state chapter.
I question why there should even be a MI chapter, when there are hardly 3-4 (am I exaggerating?) active members and the newsgroup is dead for all purposes? It's depressing and demotivating. We are better off in bigger regional groups until we have sufficient numbers to justify a chapter [ supply to follow demand, and not vice versa].
Right now, active members in not-so-active state chapters feel abandoned. They don't have an active chapter, and active chapters in other states don't want them ( go to your own). For e.g in there was no MI chapter, I would be a member of Midwest chapter or East Coast chapter, adding numbers to those.
they were not formed at the last moment in most cases
what makes you think people participate in those? from personal experience
in the MN chapter, it's hard to even get replies to e mails, forget meetings etc. of late though i'm glad to say the MN chapter has really beugun to pick up again.
ask the tri state guys how much effort they put locally- meetings- fliers- phone calls, all by a handful of volunteers. so all this is good in theory and yes it takes time. but the apathy (even hostility) that was encountered was frightening. ask chanduv23 someday what the tri state guys went through...
