Hi.
My friend's wife is in a tricky situation. She has an approved EAD through her husband's I-485 petition.
She was working with company A on her own H-1 and decided to quit employer A and join new company B on EAD. At the very last minute company B has rescinded her job offer. She now cannot return to former employer A as well.
Is she in any status violation if she justs sits at home with an EAD but no job for a few weeks ?
Can anyone share their views ?
Thank You.

This question is not to undermine the effort, which was tremendous but just from a realistic point of view...
I'm just curious to know how long it will take (or rather how long we are prepared to wait) for the impact of this rally to be felt and what are the changes that can be expected from USCIS as a result ?
Say, after waiting for a few months, status quo continues, what further actions are planned to persist with IV's cause (i.e. more rallies or by other means) ?
If the same question has been already raised, please ignore.
Thanks.
Change always takes time. Being in DC and visiting lawmakers was an incredible crash course for me in the practicalities of American politics. It was fascinating. I have to say it was one of the most satisfying things I've ever done in my life.
Whilst we are pushing for rapid changes, the realties are that building the type of relationships that we were doing in DC can take time to foster change
Anyway - lets close the thread. I was hoping to get some better information about how we can improve our motivation techniques for the future. I got many answers...

I am in a lot of stress. Please help out if possible.
Six years on my H1B expire in April 2008. I just got laid off from company A. My last day of work will be May 31st. I have LC and I-140 approved with company A.
If I join company B starting June, and transfer my H1B to B, can it extend my H1B beyond 6 years based on the approved I-140 I had with company A? If yes, will it be for one year or three years?
Gurus please help. I will be grateful.
Thanks
Don't worry..you still have time..start hunting for a job and you can transfer and extend your H1b for 3 years based on I-140 approval(beyond 6 years).

A group of us just went to Lamar Smith's Austin District Office and detailed his liason about the bills, benefits and information about IV. She said she will have them Fedex'd today to their Washington office and keep us informed about congressman's stand.

Here I will summarize why we are unable to work with each another
By this and a later post MC is showing openly brazen attitude toward EB3 applicants. Such posts should be first of all, banned from IV and I am going to report all such posts.
You wouldn't show this :( expression if it were YOUR hibernating application. Also see if Mr. Nathan's comment below would apply to you
This is the brazen post I was talking about earlier. Even MC himself acknowledges that this post is "unhelpful", and he is deliberately doing this. This gives a negative impression of how serious this person is. I would urge him to buck up and learn to work with everyone, and quit watching "balance" from his sole viewpoint
This is an "us vs them" argument. Not upto the standard desirable from IV point of view
Understand the realities here: IV is struggling to make even the most legitimate views heard and you are sitting and talking away as if USCIS and lawmakers are your servant. Go for the ONE thing to wish for that will solve all troubles, because you have only one chance.
Good dialogue. Ironic how it applies to so many posts here arguing in the opposite direction
"all the EB3s are against spillover and making comments that it's not happening this year. It feels like EB3s do not want EB2s to get GCs."
are you yourself convinced of this? I highly doubt.
You make no sense man. I am not against EB3. I just said what I think, and I can be wrong too. If you dont like this just ignore or give your view on how it justified to change the line in the middle of the game.

I dont think it is 9,800 each. I think it is 9,800 combined - 7% of 140K. To that extent the 21500 number in my earlier post stands revised down to 17,700.
It shouldnt cross 7% of 140k which is equal to 9,800 for each category. Not combined.

I second this idea.
Why can't we move from a free service to a membership based and see how many people still continue ... evenif with 25K members it is only a handful who are active and part of the initiative ... so I would suggest to go for a membership ...
it could be a per month basis or pay a big amount and get membership for life or year ... say $200 for a year or $20 for a month ... we don't need the number/mass unless they are active in all way ... just my thoughts ... hope the IV core team will consider that ... enough of free rides ... now pay for it and get the access to forums ... :mad:

I hear you, needhelp! I think every single chapter leader has felt this at some point.
I would like to clarify - anything beyond 0 minutes late is rude. I have a management position in my job, and if that happens at a meeting i'd set up professionally, they get a verbal lashing from yours truly.
It is highly disrespectful
Well said Franklin!
Needhelp!
I not only hear you but I have been there too. (I guess most of the volunteers have.)
First of all, people need to realize IV's cause is THEIR cause, nobody at IV is volunteering to gain publilcity. IV is WORKING TO SAVE YOU FROM living on the edge and spending hours tracking bulletins and EAD renewal deadlines and receipt notices!
If you don't realize this, may God help you!
Unless you have some disorder which prevents you from looking beyond 2/3/4 years, you REALLY should be joining hands with IV so that we all are "free" at the end of those 2/3/4 years!
If you just can't spend any time volunteering, then at least don't RSVP for such meetings! You know you would be fired if you did this at work.

I did not go to DC because i did not want to get the green card this way.I grew upwatching aunts,uncles coming from USA bearing gifts.I grew up watching cousins go for USA for higher studies.It used to be so special. Now its become so cheap. Now you guys have literally taken it to the streets. There's no difference between those illegal immigrants and us. This H1visa has ruined it for really smart students who come here on F1 with full scholarship.
This software industry and these cheap bodyshopping companies made it nothing more than a whore business.
My heart is broken. I dont care anymore.thats why i did not come to DC.
i'm not in software either and i have the equivalent of a doctorate and another masters and multiple specialty certifications. if you feel this way you do...you are venting your frustration about body shoppers on us- fine. your prerogative. but why are you here at all? this organization exists to end retrogression. who is "you"? as far as i can see you signed up to be a member.
by going to DC i felt like i did something to get attention to the problem. the resolution will come from congress not us. it is our right to petition, and we did. if we do not create awareness, nobody will help- with retrogression or with exploitative body shoppers. please direct your bitterness where it belongs- not on those who try to help.
each person here is a member and if they participate they do it for themselves. you too are here and lurk around reading the forums for yourself. there is vested interest in it, so maybe you are no better?
we did not cheapen green cards, you are cheapening us, people like you who are struggling through the process and in the process you cheapen yourself too. if you do not want your green card like this, it's simple, do not lurk around here.
chandu, a word of suggestion for you. we are all selfish. this is all driven by our individual needs. some just consider all this beneath them. they carp and whine about anything and everything. their thin skins burn at the slightest suggestion that everyone needs to contribute their time, effort and money. they live here on the forum and scream free speech at every turn, but will neither contribute to keep the "free speech" going, nor advocate free speech for those that urge them to get more active. they talk of aunts and uncles and fantasize about a time long gone as you can see. they talk about not wanting a green card "desperately' or not at all, yet they live on tracking threads. i do not believe their problem is selfishness. it is denial and hypocrisy. but why do you bother? those who show their character as strong and have self respect will succeed in other ways too. those who cower under their aunts and uncles will stay exactly there.
iv has grown and prospered. we have a seat in this discussion. we are talking directly to congress, the administration and uscis. does that guarantee success? nope. but you and me, we sure as hell tried and will always have that with us. and it sure is a great feeling...:cool:

I had a similar experience, i took matter with the consul general, other than making an apology in the written e-mail I dont think he took any steps in improving the Customer Service @ SFO consulate office. I sent them US postal Money order, so i dont think they duped me...it just cost me extra $20.
Babu mentality is still their for any Govt of india employee and no matter what position they are holding, they all behave same, very rude and corrupt minded, always looking for an opportunity to make quick bucks using their position. Though in your case if you would have write the money order or cashier's check in favor of the consul general, Govt of india account, i dont think they have any legal way to encash these check or money orders in favor of them.
I guess the fraud is when folks send them $20 bills, thats very easy way of stealing the money and especially when they send you the PIO card in the same original envelope which you sent. Something suspicious. Write to WAshington DC office and see if they take any action.

I do undersatnd that these companies did not help you.. y don't u understand that we r not talking about u :) the statistics r these companies bring tens of thousands here every year from one country, yes on H1 or L1, not to sponsor them for greencards, but arriving here with a dual intent visa that allows for greencard application is not such a casual opportunity and that's what I'm telling you is rarely available to the equally qualified non-retrogressed folks. Once here, those thousands transfer to these small/mid size companies u mentioned and choose to stay and apply for greencards even though they know that with their huge numbers current rules will make their greencard journey longer..
Yes adjusting the quota percentages should be on the table, but if these companies hurt you by creating a longer line than the quota allows, , then you should take issue with these companies before you take it at your fellow non-retrogressed immigrants.
You're confusing the cause-and-effect. The country quota laws were put in MUCH earlier than any offshoring companies started doing H1s. It might in fact be the opposite, meaning that these companies are hiring qualified people who weren't getting GCs.
And besides these companies are all software cos that came up in the last 10 yrs, why should that stupid rule affect any person in a non-software field?
Yes we know that the current rules make the journey longer. The point is that it is unfair and that's why we should start trying to change it!
Basically it is very difficult to understand another person's pain. Especially when you're set up to gain from it.

Guys and Gals,
Lets not bash anyone here. IEEE might sound anti-immigrant on the surface in true sense, its only anti H1B for all the right reason. I am not trying to defend IEEE but just getting the facts straight. Please check the attached file which is a letter sent by IEEE-USA president to Gov of Minnasota.
Raj
IEEE-USA has maintained a consistent position against H1-B visas for a long time. Of late they have been found making statements that cast aspersions on legal immigrants as well. I have often found that people who confess to hate only one type of immigrants are just attempting to air a politically correct view of their anti-immigrant philosophy.
http://www.ieeeusa.org/communications/releases/2006/052506pr.asp
"Combined with the H-1B visa increases, the Senate bill also includes substantial increases in legal permanent immigrant admissions that could have a major impact on the U.S. information technology workforce and engineering enterprise, according to IEEE-USA.
Dr. Wyndrum added: "The bill opens the spigot on numerous skilled visa categories. The question is how many high-tech workers can the United States absorb annually without driving up unemployment and driving down wages? The Senate demonstrated its concern about the number of unskilled workers it would allow into our country; it should show the same concern for skilled employees."

I went to SSA office today and they did not accept the application. I had all the necessary paperwork such as SSA guidenace on Non-Work Purpose SSN, Letter from IRS (one that every taxpayer got informing about Economic Stumulus Package) and FAQ regarding Basic Eligibility and ITIN for Economic Stimulus Pakcage from IRS website.
They simply refused to accept the application. This is unacceptable as I do not think lawmakers envisaged such a situation when they announced plans for Economic Stimulus Package.
