I came through SFO a few days ago. I was prepared to leave if told that I could not stay, (having lost my job last November and not having found another). I was asked if I was still working for the petitioner, I replied truthfully that I was not and that I was looking for another job. I was then told it was OK, and "welcome back".
I've got a code I biometric notice eventhough I did not apply for and EAD. What might this mean? Thanks to USCIS I lost a 2004 PD ...now its a 8/2006 PD.
In the meanwhile I have a Phd offer from a top UK university and am planning to take that opportunity, even though I have an admission to a Master's here with full scholarship.
Bluekayal Sorry to hear that you are still stuck in this mess. I am still in the university this is my second job change after GC. Hope your job and GC situation change to positive soon.

All,

So, you are expecting only few H1B petitions go to USCIS in April 2008?

Is this supposed to be cribbing, just for the heck of it? In what way can getting a 2 yr EAD be bad news?
For EB ROW, if they issue 1 yr EAD...does tht mean their 485s are not approved for at least 1 yr?
Received 2 year EAD card in email. Card is valid from jul 30th 2008 to jul 29th 2010. My PD is current.(May 06). Dont know if this is good news or bad news.

My labor was filed on July 2004 and I have not received an approval yet.
I got an RFE last week stating that Employeer has to again prove the RIR status of the application.
So Lawyer has started the advertisement process again.
Every step in the GC process is traumatic. One step gives less trauma than the other. But there is no way anyone has got a GC without agony (unless you had an easy way out).

What you are saying I understand. And many american/GC holders work as independent contractors on 1099. But H1B is never designed for independent contractor (1099). H1B is designed as W2. By using percentage basis H1B consultants are trying to work like independent contractor on 1099. USCIS is trying to crack down on that.
No H1B works on 1099.
Also how uscis can crack down on %age system.

nobody is comparing the schools over here with IIT/IISC.
There is a quota for masters in H1B.
There should be a similar quota in GC for masters.
what logic? did you vote for a senator that supports such a bill or are you planning to present it in the senate/house?
and to your point, even i am not comparing any schools... i am just saying that there should be a quota for iim/iit grads...

Nice story :) I had a clause in my first contract that I had to work for a company at least for 6 months or I will have to reimburse all H1B-related expenses. Well, I left the company and when the company's president called me, just told him to get lost. Never heard from him again. Looking back, I should've sued the company because it did not pay me full salary for the first month while I was on the "bench" (searching for a contract). Well, I am just too lazy :)

Funny that I am not upset at your questions, but are you really serious??
What were you thinking all this time when the rally was going on? Did you really think the lawmakers would sit together over a dinner yesterday and hand over a favorable decision in the breakfast next morning?
Just wait! If we don't get something favorable, we will do MORE and BIGGER.
...and next time, we'll also pick you up to the rally to carry our autograph books...hehe..just kidding.

willwin,
What you say sounds very selfish and narrow-minded.
When I made my first contribution to IV, I was stuck in BEC-hole and clearing out BEC was my top priority but not the top priority issue IVs list. I still believed in the big common goal and believed in the IV team.
You say that you don't see any benefit from IV's goals and so you wont contribute. IV's top priority is to bring relief through legislative solutions to retrogression. Can you tell me that eliminating retrogression will not benefit CP filers? If not, then what's the excuse of your bunch to not contribute?
If you still want to stick with the above "Oh it does not directly benefit me, a CP filer, because it does not massage my foot and make me feel good" rhetoric, then hey since I'm interested only in 485, I'd have to say that not a single cent of my contribution should go towards anything other than 485.
If every 485 filer were to get that selfish and said that, it would leave out this small pool of CP filer contributions (if any) which does not cover the costs of even arming up for your proposed cause. Now, where do you want to go from here?
BTW, it sounds like the CP filers are the ones who are frustrated - not the 485 filers.
Is it so? How many threads do you see from CP filers on this forum? Please direct me to those frustrations of CP filers. I couldn't see any. Tinku sent a note requesting IV core to add CP on agenda. Nothing more.
And, calling me selfish, I dont mind accepting it. I dont see anything wrong in being selfish for that's how the world is - including you and me! Don't paint yourself as a 'Mahatma'. You are contributing to IV because you are stuck in the GC queue and you 'believe' that IV would be of some assistance to you. That is being selfish.
If you had decided to continue on H1B and had not applied for GC but after seeing this forum where millions of your fellow countrymen or like-professionals suffering and you couldn't bear their sufferings and hence wrote a check to IV - you aren't selfish. But now you have just paid for a 'dutch' party!!! Nothing more my friend. You have taken a lift from a vehicle that is going to the destination that you wanted to. and you are sharing some expenses! I dont see any generosity in you.
And, before you jump on CP filers and accusing them for not contributing to IV, please jump on remaining 485 filers who are not contirbuting despite that they will be 'directly' benefiited by IV's efforts.
Else, there won't be 1000's of emails from Paskals and Chandus, needhelps saying only 2000 odd people have sent letters where there are over 20000 members. Are the remaining 18000 CP filers? lol.
And, BTW, I dont need a GC if that is off a penny that you spent. Keep it with you. And you know who is selfish.

Get a grip guys. Life is not so bad. What you guys are worrying about is relatively trivial. The odds are heavily stacked in your favor for you to get the green card eventually, most likely within 2 yrs. I can't fathom another 2 plus years with no legislative relief. In the mean time as long as you stick to AC21 rules, you should have the courage to move jobs. Heck, with EAD, you could even move into something part time and try it out before finally deciding to commit etc. My point is you have tremendous flexibility, enjoy that.
In the small chance things do not work out, then you have presumably had an opportunity to save enough to purchase a decent home in India(or wherever your home country may be), a car and your line of work(I'm referring to the predominantly IT folks here) is in such international demand that you will be able to earn a livable wage anywhere, including India.
And here is the real shocker to many of you. There are millions of Americans(probably well over half) who will trade their position in life with you in a heart beat given the privilege, family and social support system, education, world view and demand you are in. Sometimes it is hard to see how blessed you actually are in this world. That is why I have taken a very grim view of people who have compared their issue to slavery etc. That only speaks to their unawareness of that practice.
Now I know none of this is going to get you your green card tomorrow and improve your mistreatment in this needlessly ridiculous and tortuous green card journey. However I am hoping it atleast gives you some perspective.

I am not so sure where you get the impression that being a pilot is not a glamarous job any more. If you equate airline pilot to taxi drivers, you would probabily see planes dropping from sky like raining, and I bet few would dare to take commercial airline, unless one with suicidal tendency.
However, that relates another interesting part about outsourcing: lots of people are saying outsourcing are good and you can get anyone to do the IT job, but it really turned out that lots of oursourced jobs are done so poorly that eventually it costs more for the company.
I don't know how he/she equated handling a machine as complex as an airplane to a taxi cab. Bad analogy. Pilots are highly paid for a very good reason. Agreed that most of the maintenance is done by the ground crew but to make sense of the ever evolving flight instrumentation panel requires constant training and a significant amount of intelligence.
Software in certain areas has become a commodity especially coding application software which makes up about 80-85% of all systems developed. But a lot of work such as technical specification, software architecture etc. are still being seen as primarily onsite functions.

Wishful thinking - Would be nice if the court went against AZ and asked the congress and senate to resolve the issue soon through legislative action. Republicans will be against any sort of amnesty, so not a thing will happen till November, but there may be chances of piecemeal legislations to address legal immigration issues if Republicans get the majority.
I have paid over $10 K in attorney fees so far and Obama wants to legalize the illegals who broke the law by granting them amnesty and asking them to pay a "fine"? If this happened in our home country, wouldn't we all do the same and think the same as the people of Arizona? I'm in favor of AZ taking this initiative .

I know many people working here in my city who are from TCS. TCS blatantly breaks rules and sends these people on L1 visas while paying them an Indian salary and a minimal per diem for their time in the U.S. They don't even get enough for renting a car and I see many of these poor guys walking from their apartment blocks to the office. It's good exercise (for one's physical health) but the intent of the company is exploitation and nothing else :mad:
In addition, I notice that many of these recruits are here not for long term jobs but for gaining enough knowledge so that those jobs can be outsourced back to the home country. That has started to make many of my American colleagues really mad. But it's the fault of the company, not these poor guys who don't have seem to have a clue what a bad deal it is until they arrive here.
Sad to say, Wipro, Infosys and the rest in their flock are no better.
