Though they didnot break any law in writing, they had the intent to not give any relief to people who are eligible to apply in july as per the old bulletin.
The intent itself is ulawful.
Alos in rushing to use all the visas, they might have given visas prematurely to applicants who had no clearence.
The only thing we could do guys , is to get a lot of media attention , make the whole world know about our problems....
If we dont get the GC yearly number increased for India , we should plan to go back,..
How long can i wait to file 485..
I am pretty much sure( i wish i am proven wrong) that the Lawsuits are not gonna help us.
They did nothing wrong legally , its a tradition that DOS doesnt change the visa bulletin in a month..ITS NOT A LAW.
The max we could get from a lawsuit is damages(financials) , and as USCIS is a fees funded organisatiom , its gonna come back to us
In one way we should be happy that the USCIS is cleaning its internal backlog,

Its pathetic people are calling each other racists. Guys
we have an uphill task in front of us. The only chance
of winning is that stay together and work together.
There are 200000 members for NumberUSA.com. How much
are we? Meagre 5000. And we are calling names ourselves it
wont go too far.
Please remember every single day the citizens of USA
are turning against immigration more and more. It would be
really difficult to get the things we need from the law makers.

Just curious...WHAT CULTURE R U TALKING ABOUT?
1. 2G scam --- Our culture
2. CWG scam --- Our culture
3. Adarsh Housing society scam --- Our culture
4. Land acquisition in states like K'taka and Andhra --- Our culture
5. Gang rapes in Delhi --- Our culture
6. IPL scams --- Our culture
7. Not allowed to hoist our flag in our own country (Kashmir) --- Our culture
8. Chinese can claim Arunachal and issue stapled visas - its OK. Pakis violate ceasefire - Not OK --- Our culture
9. North Indians treated as aliens in Mumbai --- Our culture
10. Hordes of muslims killed in Gujarat --- Our culture
11. Celebrities like Salman, Sanjay Dutt can kill ppl on road, possess AK 47s and still get away with it --- Our culture
12. Mining scam in K'taka and Andhra --- Our culture
The list is never ending brother...CHEATING PPL OF THEIR HARD EARNED TAX MONEY IS THE CHEATERS' CULTURE and GETTING CHEATED BY SUCH CHEATERS IS THE COMMON MAN's CULTURE.
Ofcourse, there's corruption and sickos everywhere. But relatively what is better??? When u have an option what do u want to embrace???
Just speaking 100 languages and celebrating 100 festivals and females not mingling with males thus keeping away from social life etc...is not culture. Ur every day news is culture as well. Wake up to reality and make the choice when u have the liberty to make it.
All said, its ur choice end of the day. Weighing b/w the good and bad and if ur tax money is put to good use or what? I think the writing on the wall is clear and can easily make out the differences b/w white and black. But again thats just me. 5 fingers are not the same.
@ asdcrajnet - All the very best to you !! May you have a great life back home !!
@Thakkar
I agree there are many issues we have back home but after all it is our country -:)
there is something that pulls me back to and we are also thinking we will go back in the next couple of years. It will not be easy as we love this country too...but then one of the main reasons we are going back is the way is the culture here... I am not very comfortable with the culture here and would like my kids to have the Indian culture...I agree there is a lot of westernization back home too...but I guess there is some hope there still to have a little control on the kids...or help them go the right way...here I am not saying it is wrong...but is a totally different culture....which is what I am not able to digest....
Also, we are alone here no family or extended family and that too is not easy (I think)
Lack of social support....
I respect this country a lot and love this country (and my country too -:) ...I am what I am today because of India and US.
If we end up going (I am sure at some point we will), we will always be greatful to America !!!

How about getting together on the 20th of this month,
Move fast and hold a rally or send out flowers to Obama administration for their racism towards immigrants.
Act fast, I know 20th is close, think about is as an emergency
Well...where are we meeting ?

Is suing the only option? USCIS could be making unintended mistake. We want to get clarification in a smoother and faster process before the flood gates open in October.
There should be some other legal-process to get written clarifications/interpretation etc on the law (like some kind of AILA discussion with CIS).
But my friend, CIS has a very very thick skin... So the only language they understand is suit.

What we need is a interim EB bill.
The first stpes may be to indentify all non-contraversial issues and then come to a common understanding on those..
To summarize a discussion with Tito, Rajeev, and go_gc_way on another thread: we should ask for 3 non-controversial things first. We can, if we need to, ask for more things in Step 2.
1. Ability to file for I-485 without current PD.
2. A renewable EAD of 5 yrs.
3. Recapture of unused visas from previous yrs (only if this is not controversial).
Guys and gals, a silver medal is better than a gold medal. The SKIL bill is a gold medal, but the bottomline is we did not win any medal on Friday. Also, I support nycgal's opinion on re-evaluation of our lobbying partner.

I am moderately amused by your usage of the phrase "Stay in line" :)
The ones who are not staying in line and cutting ahead are the EB3 folks who are porting to EB2 ! Their line is the EB3 line. But they want to cut into the EB2 line whenever convenient. Atleast thats how most EB2 (and EB3) folks perceive the PD porting process.
There, does that explain it in your own terms ?
In my own terms, there is only one line defined by the priority date. So you can amuse yourself all you want. Its not gonna change the law.
So "Stay in line" :D

I have recently been talking to members who have already filed I485 and have used AC21 to change jobs. I noted some limitations people face while changing jobs, getting higher salaries, making use of AC21 for changing more than 1 job.. etc etc.
It seems there is lack of information on this subject. Let us use this thread to
- share expeiences
- List issues you have all faced so that IV can have this information while working on advocay efforts.
- Make others aware of your problems and do's and don'ts in the community.
- Interpretation of various lawyers on this and how they have helped you solve your difficult situations.
Hope this information will help everyone

It takes 90 days MINIMUM to get EAD? I've heard that it takes at most 90 days to get EAD. Does anyone know?
No it shouldn't take that long... some of my friends got it in 2 weeks couple of months back. First time we should get it soon .. renewal only takes time.... I am not sure how long it will take for us, it dependes on their work load also.

Buddyinsd,
Please hang in there. I am sure you will get yours card soon...
For various reasons, I got my greencard 14 years after entering this country and 14years after getting my Ph.D. Life throws up challenges and we have to face them with courage.
Ha ha Congrats....
Story of my life. I complain about delay with my application. Someone joins me and tells me they are in the same boat and the very next day that someone leaves the boat and jumps into "greener" pastures. Everyone is leaving the boat and I seem to be left out :(
Who else are in my boat? (Application with an officer for over 2 weeks and still status = "Initial Review")

I agree with you on this kaka. I heard Ed Royce speak yesterday on how the house forced the fence bill without amnesty and how they plan on killing that bill. He even talked on on how they managed to force the president to have a pulblic ceremony to sign the bill instead of a small private one that the white house wanted. There is little hope that he and people like him will ever vote on anything that supports our requirements, even if the democrats win the house they will need lots of republican support to pass anything. Skill will always be linked to CIR.
Dont worry . it is not going to pass

When we tried to schedule infopass (for sep) we found only one are two dates and appointments start from 6 AM. Is this correct? Will the office be open so early? We got a slot at 7.30 AM.
Also once you book an appoinment, I see only 'cancel' option, how to get to modify option?
Thank you for all the help.

No employer can advertise a job only for GC/Citizen unless they have a valid reason (the job needs security clearance etc.).
What are you drinking? How can GC holder get security clearance? Also, there are some jobs that may require US citizen without any requirement for security clearance. Example: Defence projects.
BTW the law does not say that authorized alien should have a work permit allowing him to work for any employer.
Read I-9 form. Employee must have work authorization before he/she can start work.
Read more here
Compliance Assistance Employment Law Guide - Authorized Workers (Non - U.S. Citizens) (http://www.dol.gov/compliance/guide/aw.htm)
My turn to ask you a proof.
Can you show me a law that says H1B can be treated differently with respect to other work authorization for hiring/firing ?
I have said before, once hired, H-1B worker enjoys same treatment as other workers for job promotions and firing.
Regarding the hiring part,
first read here about H-1 visa
H-1B Specialty (Professional) Workers (http://www.foreignlaborcert.doleta.gov/h-1b.cfm)
The H-1B program allows an employer to temporarily employ a foreign worker in the U.S. on a nonimmigrant basis in a specialty occupation or as a fashion model of distinguished merit and ability.
Now, read more about H-1B LCA here
http://www.lca.doleta.gov/h1bcl_nw.pdf
Nowhere it mentions that for qualified applicant, employer has to file LCA and H-1B petition.
On the other hand, Form I-9 clearly states, that employer must verify eligibility for the employee at the time of job start.
More about LCA here
http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/cfr_2005/aprqtr/pdf/20cfr655.721.pdf
Now, if you think, even after reading these documents that employer can be forced to file for H-1B at the time of hiring, I can suggest put your question in lawyers forum.
Hopefully, you will trust lawyer more than me.
Have a good day!
