Any link between being a "legal immigrant" and getting jumped by a bunch of thugs and being killed while trying to resist?
I agree - these are things that have to be taken very seriously.
I am also hearing that desi houses are being targeted in New Jersey as ZDesis have jewelery in houses.

Isn't law abiding employers and visa abusers not enough to make a distinction???
It has just started, wait for a couple of months. Then you will get a long list :D

One does NOT need EAD to use AC21. I don't understand the panic.
In fact, one can be working at Employer B and can claim AC-21 for Employer C as a future job.
----------------------------------
Permanent Resident since May 2002
If you don't need EAD to use AC21 whats the use of EAD for the primary applicant?
I was not planning to change company and just filed my 485 without EAD last week. But now situation has changed and the lawyer said i need EAD if i want to use AC21 after 6 months. I'm hoping to get a receipt notice soon so that i can file for EAD without the increased fees. Anybody has any link to where it says we don't need EAD for AC21 so i can check with my lawyer?

Crazy,
I am with you. I ugree with you.
I have been vaiting for nearly 6 ears now to get my GC and I vill have no issue to ubandon it and re-apply in this kategory. What an apportunity.
Thanks for your precious vote of confidence :D and your endorsement of my logic.
You've been waiting 6 years .... How about 6 more? If this thing passes in a similar form, would you rather again re-apply in a current category (that will not retrogress) or wait in your own (Eb2-Eb3) category for another 6 years (since that is probably how long it will take for the USCIS to process your app once the flood gates open)?
Buy the vay how long have you been in Umerica.u jained this forums nearly 1 ear ago, and jast 2 posts. The poynt based cystum is stupid, it gibes independence to upplicants. uver lagic is really grate.
I've been here a looong time, though I started my GC processing only in 2005. I recently got laid off which is why I now have the time to check developments in the immigration world.
Peace out!

My lawyer advised against filing AC21 proactively. His opinion is that it may trigger a big RFE requiring financial details of the new employer. How true is this? I have a feeling my previous employer might withdraw my approved I-140 on the advice of their corporate lawyers (Fragomen, who I believe recommend I-140 withdrawal as past of their standard procedure when an employee leaves). I would like to preempt that and file AC21 documentation.

Pappu,
We believe in this organization's hard work. Our presence here proves it. But I also think blaming members might not achieve anything except hostility.
If we do not get enough funds then we need to advertise IV. We need to have better web pages to have a look of a professional organization as compared to having a look of , lawyers website etc. For this we need ideas. We need better communication from IV administrators on their webpages. Right now if someone new comes to this website, it is does not look more than getting their immigration related questions answered. Plus their should be easy tabs to print IV advertisement for community boards, sending emails to friends to participate, or any other ideas. Also we need some form of direction of what to do and how to do it. Right now I don't even see easy tabs for access information from congressman, senators etc. Just throwing out some ideas. I am sure some other people have better ideas than I do.
Why dont you start by updating your profile, contributing money and volunteering your time to IV. You joined a couple days ago and have started lecturing IV admin as if you are an expert.
You came to the site and started dismissing IV flower campaign and praised AILA.
Why don't you volunteer for the site and its content and send an email to IV for it? And dont tell me you do not have time. If you do not have the time, then contribute money to IV because that is what I did too.

First the degree should be related.
See the rules here --- EB2 - BSc (3 yrs) & MSc (2 yrs) education - Topic Powered by Infopop (http://murthyforum.atinfopop.com/4/OpenTopic?a=tpc&s=1024039761&f=2704080912&m=7651047741&r=2351039351#2351039351)
USCIS knows the rules better than you and they DO apply the rules correctly. If you know of a case where there is a violation you are free to complaint to CIS rather than ranting in a public forum.
A correspondence Masters from an ACCREDITED university is legit. As I said earlier, if a degree from a Accredited University is invalid than your degree is also invalid. There are tonns of legit US universities offering Online courses --- some examples are University of South Dakota, University of Massachusetts, Northeastern University etc.
I challenge you --- say in a public forum that degree earned through online courses from these universities are bogus . I will make sure to forward that link to these universities and you can spend more time defending a defamation law suit than anything else.
Looks like you are using online degree to support your case as well, that is why you are so pissed off. No matter how loud you shout or how many people you threaten about lawsuits and all that stuff, no one can deny the fact that an online degree does not have much of recognition.

Good to hear that 01, 02 & 03 ppl r getting approved. Atleast they are following FIFO and the line is getting shorter. Not that I am not happy abut the 06 folks who got GC but it should realistic 'First In First Out'.
The only problem with this is as follows. You are either FIFO all the way or you are not. When you are FIFO by convenience, then the result is multi year old 485s, and volatile PD movements that make the stock market gyrations seem minuscule, which is clearly not the intent of the system. Where was FIFO this summer when they were shooting random approvals from the hip? How can you say FIFO for come and luck of the draw for others?
I am especially glad to see the older cases getting their due, but they have most certainly screwed some ie those with 2004/5 PDs, especially those at the NSC by their policy this summer.

Spouse working - Yes, in theory they could allow H4 to work. However would that be any job? If so then the H4 would actually be far better off than the H-1B who is restricted by job category and employer qualification
Long term - Yes, in theory, a 20 year H-1B takes some of the stress off. But what of Citizenship? If you stay 20 years you'd want to at least have the option of becoming a US citizen. At present I believe only a GC holder has the option to progress to citizenship.
Employer based - This is the key. Unless an H-1B is no longer employer sponsored but self-sposored then the H-1B holder is still living on a knife-edge and can be sent back home at any moment if their employer fires them or goes under and they cannot secure another similar job quickly enough.
So yes, they could make H-1B 20 years, allow spouse to work, allow application for citizenship and make it self-sponsored and not employer dependant. But why do that? They already have this kind of Visa. It's called a Green Card.

gc101, if you are not able to get married before you you file your I485 (by Aug 17th). I would recommend that you file alone. these are my reasons for this recommendation:
1) You have more options open to you for your wife after you file I485 (ie. throught family based categories, even though the wait time is 7 years).
2) If you don't file now and have to wait for you PD to get current, with the current laws that might be close to 6-7 years. In this time you might get your GC and your citizenship too. After citizenship your wife can get her GC very quickly.

Reno, could you please give us more information about your and your friends' experience :
- What your qualifications are.
What the Sr. software engineer job requirements were. Things like:
- Education
- Experience
and also more info about your experience with PERM:
- Processing center. Chicago or Atlanta?
- Processing time.
- Any audits?
- Any business necessity documentation requirements?
I know I'm asking for a lot of info but I think it would be extremely helpful for many folks who are preparing to file under EB2 to avoid regression.
My wife applied for LC as Business Analyst with Bachelors and 5 years of Exp.
My wife has done her Bachelors in Engineering from Bombay. She had more than 7 years of exp at the time of filing. The job required 5-7 years of exp with abachelors Degree.
She applied to Atlanta center and it took around 5 months and no audits that we know of. thenshe applied for her I 140 which took around 3-4 months. There was an RFE for exp letters since the lawyers did not give it during her I 140 filing. After the lawyers responded to her RFE, her I 140 was approved in 15 days. Now she is waiting to apply for I485.
I hope this gives u an idea that u can apply for EB2 as BA if the job requires Bachelors and 5-7 years of exp.

I would sympathize with you if you can do the following:
1) Show me that no more than 90% of the population experience depression tendencies at some point in their life.
among EB applicants I believe it would be 99%. So are you alone? I guess not:D:D
Things you could do: Try watching talks with the Dalai Lama (available on youtube). Read books on Gandhi. Increase frequency of quiteness / meditation. Watch atleast one comedy show per day. Visit/remember the sick/disabled/poor or other less fortunate people than you.
Things you could avoid: Heavy drinking. Watching news, movies/shows which are high tension. Most important is not to fight the emotions/thoughts that you consider are destructive. Allow them to come and go. Just watch them come and go........
What you consider as "Good luck" can happen to you in the fraction of a seccond, however, it will never happen if you keep on defining yourself as unlucky. So focus on the good things you have now and refrain from comparing to "what you should be having or are worthy of having". :D:D:D:D
thomachan72.... good advice - your point taken. I follow similar techniques to stay optimistic for most part of time. but every once in a while, there comes a time when I think why do some ppl get so lucky in everything they do.... they succeed in everything they do. while there are unlucky ppl like the poor/disabled etc who are destined to live unfortunate life deprived of so many things that other ppl enjoy regularly. is this what they call 'Law of Karma' ? did I do anything bad/evil in my past births - did I destroy anyone's career or life ? I am positive I did not do anything bad/evil in this life .... atleast as of now :D

Sorry to hear this however you can go for COBRA. these days u can avail Obama discount as well which brings your insurance down by 60 percent so u will be pretty much paying the same what u are paying now.
Employer has every right to terminate employee so we can't go gainst the emploer.
Stick to COBRA..

Apply on the date your 6 months are left. Use the couple of months before that to follow up with your employer and Lawyer and get all paperwork done and application packet ready. If lawyer or the employer is slow, then one needs to push them since ultimately you are going to be affected and nobody else.
The onus is on the H1B worker to be diligent and not leave everything to the last few months. DMV is only following the rules. Maybe some of them are not aware of the rules. The issue of not getting license despite H1B approvals, and H4s not getting DL is something one can take up as an issue with media and authorities. But just because the person did not bother to get the H1B extended until the last moment cannot be an excuse for relief when we approach the authorities.
In some situations you would want to delay filing of your H1 extension.
I did exactly this as my I140 has been delayed in background check since October 2006. I did not want to rush with filing my H1 extension as I could benefit from getting a 3 year extension instead of 1. Unfortunately USCIS never took a decision on my I-140 case till date even after I upgraded to premium processing in June. I filed for my H1B extension in regular processing on the very last day hoping I would see a I140 approval.

Please see the attached document section B2.
It implies that one can apply for EAD even if I-140 is pending, but the said law firm advises against it if the case is not straight forward (Labor substitution etc...)
Also, I just got off the phone with my lawyer and she confirmed that
"Though it is advisable to apply for EAD after I-140 is approved, it is not neccesary".
In my particular case, since my H1 is valid till July'08, she mentioned it shouldn't be a problem. But she mentioned that they intend to convert the I-140 application to Premium, the moment USCIS reinstates it to be on the safer side.
