Even if big companies r ready to pay that kind of money for H1B employees - almost all the big companies - not just the tech ones - almost all depend on the body shops to provide contract labor- just think of it - banks, insurance companies, telecom, IT, utilities - take the example of just new York city - half of Wall street depend on these bodyshops for software labor - if majority of the body shops close down - this labor supply will be stifled and that will pinch the users of this labor supply - so extreme restrictions will not help the industry as a whole..eventually I think these Sanders/Durbin restrictions will be watered down - in case the bill passes the whole COngress

How long do you have to work for the employer??
If your GC is based on EB-1 then it would be self petition and not based on employer based petition (EB-2). In that case you don't have to work for the employer after GC approval. Clarify with your attorney though.

People were very happy with the last USCIS announcement but we all forgot about pain of people who are stuck in years of backlog. Though some of those unfortunate may have used harsh or improper language, but they had all the right to express their feelings. We all talk about Gandhian philosophy, but we need to be more tolerant. Before we ask to ban anyone from our forum, please try to put yourself in their shoes.
Our fight is far from over, we should all fight for for in-justice made to people who are trapped in the bureaucracy.

Dear Bigheart Sanju
3. You seem to be under the impression that IV got the visa-bulletin reversed??? Moses, wake up and smell the roses. The massive class-action lawsuit being pursued by AILA, the Silicon Valley lobby pressuring Zoe Lofgren, almost all immigration lawyers asking people to join the class action .. what about all of that? Do think your 25 bucks on the flower campaign is what got the bulletin reversed?
SERIOUSLY??
Thanks chanakya, I do have a big heart. But I understand where you are coming from. You joined this forum in Jun-08. You were not here in July-07. So did not see how things unfolded and what actually happened. I am in no mood to narrate and spoon feed it to you. If you think aila did something for you, then why are u arguing here on this forum and why do u want access to some donor forum. Why don't you go and join aila? If noone is even doing anything here, why do u want access to some useless forum. You don't think anyone has done anything or anyone is doing anything, right? Maybe you need to go to in the next annual convention of aila. Good bye.

Dear Mr. XXXXXX:
Thank you for contacting me about my views on the current immigration proposals being considered by Congress.
I have long supported legislation to curb illegal immigration by increasing criminal penalties for immigrant smuggling and document fraud, eliminating the use of government documents that are easily forged, and doubling the number of border patrol guards. Better enforcement and tougher penalties for both undocumented immigrants and their lawbreaking employers are the way to fight unauthorized employment, and employment opportunities are what drive illegal immigration.
Unless we fix the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA) and enforce our own labor laws, we will continue to debate how high the fence should be and how many agents should guard our border � with no real solution in sight. In 1994, the U.S. signed NAFTA, which promised, among other things, to help create a thriving middle class in Mexico. At that time there were 3 million undocumented workers in the U.S.; today there are more than 11 million. In Mexico, 9 million more live in poverty than when NAFTA was enacted. NAFTA has failed the U.S. and Mexico. By creating an atmosphere where Mexican citizens feel they have no chance of a successful life in Mexico, these ill-conceived trade agreements increase the number of illegal immigrants coming into our country.
In addition to addressing the forces that are compelling illegal immigration, we must take action to bring illegal immigrants out of the shadows. While I do not support amnesty and have serious concerns about guest worker programs, I do believe our nation should consider establishing a process by which illegal immigrants can eventually earn citizenship. The solution to our immigration problem will not be a simple one, as many things in our country need to be fixed to stop illegal immigration. It is time to take a common sense approach to immigration reform.
The Senate most recently considered immigration when S.1639 was introduced in the 110th Congress. On June 28, 2007, the Senate rejected a cloture motion to proceed to final passage of S.1639 by a vote of 46 yeas to 53 nays. I was deeply concerned about the guest worker provisions in this bill, and voted against proceeding to a final vote. Should these issues come again before the Senate in the 111th Congress, I will be sure to keep your views in mind. Thank you again for contacting me.
Sincerely,
Sherrod Brown
United States Senator
Don't they read their emails????

If you extend the deadline anymore, you should change the name to either
The Honorable Barack Obama :mad::mad: or
The Honorable Hillary Clinton :mad::mad:
Every joke has got a part of ...joke.
I was thinking about sending letters (not exactly as to WH but about legal immigrants issues) along with contributions for their campaign to the above named persons.

If you are from India or from a country which fought for its freedom, you would not ask this question.
When M.K.Gandhi held his first rally against the British rulers(nothing personal here Franklin and Mark :) ), it did not result in immediate freedom, but was it worthless ?
It's not just India that won freedom either, don't forget USA!
Although I do admire Gandhi's approach more.
STAND UP AND BE COUNTED.
If Britain still ruled India, I'd probably be marching with you in India!
What would rather you tell your children, "I sat at home and read the forums", or "I marched in the streets".

If your interpretation is correct, US STEM degree holders with 3-year experience hit the Jackpot. Good for them and good for remaining people in EB2 queue. Unfortunately EB3 can not use any surplus/leftover created in EB2 with the new bill. That is a minus point. EB-5 benefits a lot though.

Simple and yet we have not acted purposefully. I have a strong feeling that this visa grab is still going on. HLG has sent out another immigration alert to all registered emails, similar to one posted on Feb 9, 2007. . And I quote a bit
Stopping this 'unused visa grab' for only one section of retrogressed and demanding it for all retrogressed is a sure WIN for us, if it happens; if it is stopped, it will make a tectonic shift the focus to the whole gamut of issues of retrogression, backlogs etc and will put more pressure on Congress to act.
I have seen and read all the posts in this thread started by me. I appreciate all points and posts, particularly by core team.
The least we can do is write and fax to Congress and demand. The IV team should set up a fax, so that each of us here can protest these moves by Congress without considering other severely backlogged applications. For this I propose a simple message.
Next one/two days are crucial. Let's make a difference.
Note:
1) In the above, I am trying to be focused, addressing one issue at a time. Backlogs, Slowness, Finger Prints are also other genuine issues. Let us stop the greedy stealing by HLG and their ilk.
2) If for whatever reason IV will not come up with a web fax, a few of us must act individually and let the congressmen and senators know of our protest. I had faxed to a few Congressmen and Senators, from the fax machine at my workplace. Believe me, these types of protests have worked in the past.
nurses are needed in hospitals. ever been to one in the US? there is a big shortage of nurses. opposing numbers for nurses is unethical, because lives are saved in hospitals, and will show us in poor light.

Folks, let's not be judgmental please. Constructive critics should be a good thing.
I think this guy is from numbers usa for sure. After writing all the BS, he asks it to take it in constructive way. There are lots of other way to express your concern if it had to taken in constructive way. This is definitely not the way.
Based on your comments I could see that you are a regular visitor (FREE RIDER ATTITUDE) to IV site for more than a year. We had several threads crying out for funds in very critical time senstive times. At those times you are a mere spectator and now just for posting this bashing post you reluctantly became a anonymous member. All these shows your LEADERSHIP skills and quality of leading the battle from FRONT. If I were in USCIS I would do a background check on these high qualities and ground breaking positive attitudes even before giving H1.

Hi,
I want to know weather can I apply AP for my wife while she is in US post it to India if she has to go to India before it gets approved.
As there is the situation my wife need to go to India in July and I am planning to apply for her AP, can I send it over to her once the AP is approved or dose she need to be present in US at the time of approval.
Thanks for advice
As far as I know, AP needs to be applied while the person is physically present in the US. Once it is applied and receipt notice has been received, the person can then travel. you can certainly send the AP to you wife in India.

If we support DREAM act, they will support SKIL bill.
Who are they?, they do not have any voice or vote anywhere. They are ILLEGAL, they broke the law.
Congress and Senate are dominated by Democrats. If they think that is best for USA what is your problem? Wherever our interests meet, we need to support other things. Also if amnesty (for lack of better words) is given by US Govt, (with proper border enforcement), then they will not be illegals. Hope you are getting big picture.
I personally had many meetings, they echoed the opinion that we are doing the right thing. That is the way things work in the capital. And they have very great opnion of Patton Boggs.
