Alterego, what great news! You WILL NOT REGRET coming! I totally agree with everything you say! At least we know that we will have stood up for our rights and we will be proud to tell our children that we did so!
Besides, you are absolutely right. This country takes notice when people speak up! The problem is that that's not the case in our birth countries, and thus we are not hard-wired to speak-up! But if we make an effort we will definitely see the results! When people speak up and make a case for their basic rights then they are given those rights! But the rights will be taken away if we give them away, and the way to give them away is to remain quiet! This is a country where the fittest survive, and people will take what is yours if you do not claim it and/or protect it!
We will make our voices heard, and we will end retrogression! But we cannot do it without us all joining together!
I think we can do it, now just decide if you want to be part of history or not. Think if you want to remember this action for the rest of your life, or maybe you will regret you didn't spend one day out off the office. I sure want to be there!

13 in the pipeline:
Got another 11 from ex-colleagues at a client location, plus 2 from a friend's friends!
I will confirm my new tally after I get hold of them tomorrow.
Of course, much more work needs to be done here... hope folks in NORCAL are listening!
At my workplace, about 50% of them have have signed this letter now! This is including but not limited to employees with an immigrant background ( including but not limied to the Indians and the Chinese!)
My tally is now up to 253. Expecting another 2 this evening from a friend who got it from 2 of his own friends.
Recruit friends & strangers to help you, then follow up a little bit, it helps!

Dear Miss/Mr "JisDesh.....",
Only time people came here in masses were when H-1B program existed and quota was very high. So you reminiscing about your uncle and aunt(when H-1B never existed), and now talking about "masses" makes no sense. So don't make a U-turn on your chosen path.Now quota has reduced and hence the struggle for H-1B visas.
And who is talking about H-1B visas here, yes they are a privilege and not a right. iv is meant for people who have been sidelined due to unfair laws governing issual of GC's.It doesn't have anything to do with H-1B visa program and desi comapanies who misuse it.
Go get a clear mind first
Guys like you are not capable of comprehending the whole issue here and even if you are, you cannot articulate.
I just said i miss those good old days before coming to america was possible for masses. There is value as long as it is limited.
I did not look down up SW industry but loath these cheap desi companies who really raped this H1 visa program and the people standing on the streets of washington are the byproducts of that rape.There simply are not enough visa numbers. To increase them or not is that country's soverign right.And what rights are you talking about.A Visa is a privelege not a right.

Bunnyboy is a member of IV's forum and he had a magic sequence number to call USCIS, that will hit the USCIS IO not the CS dept.
Fdbl another name of fragomen. I wanted to say that fragomen lawers are well respected within USCIS. The IO was very polite after hearing my case was filed though fragomen.
Till now i or my wife does not have any RFE throughout our L1/L2 to GC. Now GC is in hand.
I know they are little slow, but you have to followup to make it fast. One thing is they donot take shortcut in process. Thats the reason many are frustrated. Desi lawers and companies can go to any extent and we should not compare that with a professional law firm.
I am wondering your logic for using "desi lawyers". They graduated through the same system as any other "book smart" attorney in the "smart" fragomen system. I think it is always a negative to go through a large law firm. An association with a large firm must not be confused with efficiency. Who knows...might be freebies which they provide to HR grp of the large firms keeps them in the picture.......................

Transfer H1-b (dont have to apply for a new one)
: THIS IS COMPLETELY WRONG
I already posted this in another thread and I will post it again:
I am wondering when people will understand that H1B Transfer does not exist!
Everytime you want to switch employers, a whole new H1 must be filed.
People are always under the impression that because they already hold an H1, then it is easy to get "transferred" to another company.
In this case, the only thing you actually "transfer" is ...yourself and nothing else. The only advantage of already having an H1 is that you don't have to worry about the quota anymore, you are exempted from it.
Since you have to file a new case, approval can never be guaranteed and it is therefore always risky to switch employers (as soon as the new H1 is filed), without waiting for approval. Tricky stuff...
Check this from Murthy.com:
" Among the questions that often reach us, are those regarding H1B status and changing employers that refer to "transferring" the H1B. This term is frequently used, even by some immigration attorneys. The H1B is not actually "transferred" from one employer to another when an individual changes a job, however. We understand what people mean when they refer to an H1B transfer. We take this opportunity to explain the concept, though. This should help our readers to avoid misunderstandings as to procedure and requirements based upon the mistaken belief that the H1B is somehow transferable from one employer to the next.
�MurthyDotCom
When a person is on an H1B and plans to change employers, what technically is filed with the USCIS is a new H1B petition, reflecting a change in employment, generally with a request to extend H1B status. Again, with the exception of the foreign national employee, there is nothing that transfers from one employer to the other."

Air France still does not get it. neither do other euro nations, Nor does Australia.
They are now dealing with a entirely different generation of Asians who do not care if they were once a developed nation or that they can manufacture aircrafts.
The reply is still suggestive of they taking care of the passengers and handling the situation well. No, they did not.
A technical aircraft problem is something that every airline faces everyday.
Air France not having a plan to care of non-american or non-eurpoean indians is completely their fault and outright racist. and that too a flight which is flying to India?
Did they expect everyone on the flight to be from a EU or North American nation, and that they will not require transit visas.
No, they simply did not care. They just did not make arrangement for Indian residents and hid behind the transit visa excuse.
If they wanted, they could have arranged for a Airport Transit visa for eveyone who did not have one.
But no, they assumed that regardless of how we treat them, an indian is going to fly Air France again if that is the cheapest option.
Funny is, that might be true, but that demographics is changing so fast that they better keep not caring, cos Indians will not fly with them anyways.

I have mailed 17 more individual signed letters to WH address this afternoon and copy of these 17 signed letters in one envelope to IV address. Good to see new date. I will continue to get as many as I can before this new date.
Collected 11 signatures during NJ trip and I guess these will go into NJ account..and 6 signatures from FL [11(NJ)+07(FL)=17]
Arvind
Well as it is u who collected these - they go into ur account - congrats. They are your effort

One thing I wish to add is that we must develop a good way of sending out many letters at will/as per the strategy of IV core to the lawmakers at critical times. We are 23K strong. Surely we can get atleast as many letters sent in to lawmakers at critical times. If you can't send a written petition to a lawmaker then I doubt it makes any sense to even think you or anyone can alter your fate, in that case time spent on sites like this is for what reason?
Professional organizations do letter campaigns all the time and get a good response. If everyone moves on these issues it does create a splash and can bring visibility and attention.
All ideas should be collected here in this thread.

Alterego:
Thanks for your feedback, we are mindful of this issue.
Studies regarding what is the most effective way to communicate with lawmakers have shown that writing mail is not one of the best way. Face to face meeting is always the best option. If not in DC, we can always do that in our local districts.

Republicans are generally more amenable to legal immigration fixes than Dems. While not all of the Dems are bad, most of them dont care about legal immigration -- they just want the illegals. If it were not for these Dems, 5882 would have sailed through by now
I am sure NoBama will say CIR. illegals first. etc. etc.
I am not sure how much the next president will affect the passage of the bill through the two houses since they were majority democrat and will continue to be majority democrat. Senate is projected to continue to be majority democrat even after the upcoming election (when 1/3th of the Senate seats are up for election). A Republican president might not veto such a bill. Not sure if Obama would veto a bill which has passed through a democratic majority vote. Just a thought........I could be wrong.

hey guys quick question...my existing AP just expired yesterday. however I had applied for AP renewal 120 days in advance and received an approval in Oct. The problem is the new AP that I received in Oct is valid from Oct 2008 until Oct 2009 even when I had a valid Ap until Dec 2008. So basically I lost 2 months when I reapplied for AP. Can I do anything to get 2 months added?

I was told by my attorney NOT to do this...Apply either through yourself or through your spouse. I was told that if there are two different applications for the same person, then it raises a red flag and you might end up in a big soup...But having said that, your attorney(s) might have different opinion(s)...
With the good news of all numbers current, both I and my wife's dates are current and eligible for filing I485.
1. In my application, can I include my wife as spouse for adjustment of status? And In my wife's application, can I include myself as spouse?
I am trying to do this to make sure if anything goes wrong in any one of our application, I can depend on the other one.
2. If I get an EAD based on my wife's application, can we both switch jobs after 180 days and take advantage of AC21? I read in some forums that I can, but the primary application (my wife) has to work for the same company until we get I485 approved.
Thanks for your answers in advance

vbkris,
We have asked for "sorting by priority date" (updated first post with original letter to USCIS), so we should get the breakdown if we can define "priority date" for them.
What we get
1. We get number of EB2,EB3 Primary and EB2,EB3 Dependent applications.
2. From the wordings, I won't be suprized if they give a summarized number from 2001.
But if someone else requested this info broken into PD buckets by month and Year, then I think we need to use that. The letter I sent had that wording, but I never received any response yet.
Here is what we don't get
1. Break up by country - Helps folks in EB3 as ROW is not current
2. Some might have not applied for AOS for various reason like their I140 is still pending, Some companies mandate that. - This could be a small percentage
3. Break-up by PD month& year
More insight is welcome.. Pre-adjudicated cases are not approved cases. So they can't eliminate them..

Gurus,
We have the EAD until Oct 2008 and we still didn't file for the renewal, I am still on
h1 and my wife on h4. we are planing to file EAD and AP somewhere in AUG when we move to other apartments. Please let me know if this is okay or do I need to file the EAD and get it renewed before the earlier EAD is expired. Thanks ...
you can let the current one expire and then apply for the new one, its not a problem,.
