Can we use this or portions of this text for our mails to the media on the "Send flowers Drive"?
I would suggest changing the last point as so -
(2)Ensure and request USCIS not to reject our immigrant visa petitions filed in July and provide us interim benefits of a pending immigrant visa petition. We make this sincere request on this Independence Day with the hope that people who played by the rules will not be punished.
It doesn't matter if we are not rewarded as long as we are not punished!

This is a good question and let me give you a straight answer which others on this forum will not tell you. I am not sure if this is a rhetorical question or if this question is asked out of curiosity. But here are two versions of the answer to this question, so please bear with me here as I try to explain both versions.
High skilled educated "illiterate's" version
High skilled educated "illiterates" thinks that EAD is like green card. In July 2007 when everyone filed EADs, everyone thought that now they will get green card before the expiry of their EADs. So based on that foolish assumption, these poor illiterate folks started thinking that EAD=green card. Now the reality is setting in, and now these poor illiterate high-skilled folks have been stuck by reality check. So the real answer to EAD=green card question is setting in. And that version is -
Real Version
EAD is nothing like green card. EAD is a benefit of pending I-485 adjustment of status application. These is a good chance that green card application could be rejected for countless number of reasons resulting in loss of EAD privileges. As the economy worsens, this reality will set in further.

Congrats to Goan2005.
For a lot of others it's a long wait. Unless you used substitution labor to jump the line, increasing the Visa numbers, elimination of country quotas is your only hope. IV is the only organization/movement working for it.
Be part of the movement to get those LUDs in your case. Real status is - 'Case Approved'. Rest all are passe. Work for the real thing.

I got RFE through attorney. It is asking following details
1. Emloyment verification letter with present and intended permanent employer
2. Last two months pay slips
3. "Although your I 140 petitioner indicated in your initial I485 filing that you were employed by company A at that time, your Form G325 indicated that you were employed by company B and you were authorized by B at that time, please explain discrepancy"
I am bit worried about question 3. I worked for company A and labor, I140 applied when I was with A.
But during I485 filing I was with company B and in G325 I mentioned that.
It looks like company A by mistake mentioned that I was still with them.
I called my attorney he said its upto me decide which company I should work for.
But I am not sure company A provides an employment letter for me because I am working for comapny B now.
If B provides employment letter since it is >180 days since I 485 applied, will there be any issues?
Please give your opinions...
Did you put employment letter or offer letter from employer A while filing the I485?

You are absolutely right. Its almost as if democrats are wishing that CIR will go away. As I said in my previous post last time we had, Arlon Specter, Bill Frist and President Bush pushing CIR to the top of the agenda, the senate literaly set aside all buisness in May to get CIR done. This time CIR is like an untouchable disease nobody wants to touch even with a ten foot pole. Maybe something is happenning behind the scenes, we can only hope something is happenning behind the scenes.
In addition to the bills you listed below, you also need to consider the time lost in the dreaded confrence between the house and senate when the bills are reconciled. For example the minimum wage increase bill passed by senate comes with some tax breaks wheras the minimum wage increase bill from house does not have any tax breaks. They have to have a confrence to resolve the differences between the bills and revote on it.
The bottom line is CIR will happen if there is strong will of the congress. Right now you dont see any. Infact congress wants to look the other way when it comes to CIR. They have enough execuses to not do nothing on cir with there preoccupation with Iraq war, the 9 bills listed below etc. Unlike last time no strong man (rather men) is Shepherding it. So best case scenario might be December or Jan 2008.
As some wise man said "patience is a virtue" and we need tons of it if we were to live to see the day CIR passes :D
Let’s see, Senate has so far passed Bill #2
And here are some of the bills in numerical order in which they were listed in Senate
3. Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act of 2007
4. Medicare Prescription Drug Price Negotiation Act of 2007
5. College Student Relief Act of 2007
6. CLEAN Energy Act of 2007
7. College Opportunity Act of 2007
8. Rebuilding America's Military Act of 2007
9. Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2007
Also on an average it takes about 10 Business days to debate and vote on bill.
Lookup at the senate calendar (working days week offs etc)
Lets assume (when have things gone right for us?) everything goes according to the order listed above. We have 80 days of work before CIR comes to senate.
Considering that senate takes weeks off (first from Feb 19-23, second from April 2-9). I don’t see how they can start CIR before May at the latest.
Now they might say some of the bills could be a days worth of work, or not necessary bills will be taken up in numerical order etc.
But I ask you again. When was the last time we were lucky?

I think we need to clarify that Reid and Pelosi are independent and not related in terms of setting up a debate. Pelosi is in the Lower Chamber - House of Representatives, Reid is in the upper chamber - the Senate. They do not have influnce over each other in terms of scheduling and the rules, etc. Pelosi is the speaker of the House, Reid is the Majority leader in the Senate (there is no speaker in the Senate). In the Senate Reid is the one who calls the shots in terms of scheduling, but it has to be on a bill proposed in the Senate (not the one propsed in the house), although the texts could be identical it is still a separate bill with a separate number. Based on the rules such bill may have to go through a comitee first (Judiciary perhaps). As for the House I believe Pelosi has lot of say when it comes to the agenda. However if it has to be the majorty leader of the "House", than it would be Stonie Hoyer.

I am asking people to think before acting.
I am not opposing webfax. I am opposing webfax you are sending to promite illegals. These organizations are going to use you to market them self. Secondly nobody is going to read your fax if you even change the words.
Organizations supporting illegals will do nothing for legals.
If you think that by changing the words , you can use their fax to spread your message, then why dont you go to anti-immigrant websites and change their words and send faxes to support legals. You will not do it because you know anti-immigrant is written on top of the fax.
So why do you want to become a puppet of someone else.
psaxena if you really want to do something, how about collecting the names of all the people in the meeting and post their phone numbers on the forum. Then tell us what to say and we will all call their offices now.
Do you understand that if anything is going to happen for us it has to be through CIR at this time? It is a fact that Illegal immigration group with 12 million people have much louder voice than we IV/legal immigrants. If you don't suppport CIR then you are supporting anti-immigrants by sitting quite at this time. CIR may be 90% for illegals and 10% for legals and with friends like Zoe Lofgren in the committee we should be hopeful that there will be definitely some relief for us. Ist step is to support CIR.

Thanks for advice. Yes my last M.Sc. and Ph.D. from the USA.
Could you please clarify what "find out NIW holders in your / related engg field"? How can I find out?
Do you believe EB2-NIW is easier than EB1-OR?
Thank you,
John
Your situation is slightly different than many I have come across. If your qualifications, research work, project etc have unique qualities, then you may still have a fighting chance. But you may have to do a lot of homework: find out NIW holders in your / related engg field, ask a few lawyers: do not believe right away if somebody promises they could, try to enroll in as many professional associations as possible, enlarge your skill portfolio etc.
BTW, is any degree of you from US?

I wonder on what basis did they advance the dates by whatever margin they did. No doubt, any positive movement (in hours, days ) is good but the consolidated database is not in place as I understand and so this seems pretty much a watershed. The dates might move with out any GC being issued :)

I think, if at all Minister is being planned to be met , it is better only few problems are presented to Minister.
PROBLEMS IN INDIA MAY DILUTE THE FOCUS. I think the following would be best to present ..
1) Retrogression.
2) Social Security Treaty.
Numbers justifying above data can do a lot good to explain the problem.
I think VISA retrogression problem can be addressed to the minister. That itself will give BIG relief to thousands of people from India.Make a special VISA Quota for India is another good option. Minister can suggest this option to the US Officials and Senators ! He is scheduled to meet some US senators in DC and NYC.
This is great opportunity for poeple living in Maryland and DC area. It is easy to go and meet him personally ! Think about it guys....

What if your AP does not come until July next year ? Are you planning to wait until then to travel ?
I'll take a chance with the H1 stamping (like I have been doing for the past 6 years) if I dont get AP by end of the year. Dont want to be in a position where I cant come back if I suddenly have to travel for some reason (family emergency etc)... you cant let these things control all your actions...

If I plan to use EAD instead of H1/H4... Do I still need to maintain I-94??
This is a very valid question for spouses on H4 using EAD... When their H4 I-94 expires, they won't get a new I-94 unless travel outside country... This is little confusing.. May be we've some one with better knowledge about this issue...

Finally I gave a thought to all this GC business and I am planning to start my Canadian PR too, here are my questions :
1. Does anybody know of any good immigration cunsulting company for Canadian PR processing ?
2. How much would be the total cost to get it done throught the consulting services ?
3. Are there any hidden costs which these companies tell you at the end and try to rip you ?
Thanks
You do not need anyone. I am preparing my application by myself as well. Check the official website www.cic.gc.ca and check www.immigration.ca forums for useful pointers and tracking when you apply.
good luck

There's a EB3 140 approval drought in not just NSC, but TSC too. I think it's going to get worse with EB3 becoming U. I am myself EB3 Mar 2005 and my job isn't looking very stable after my company resorted to outsourcing.
Can we suggest to AILA reinstatement of premium processing for those who've waited beyond some acceptable period of time? The same way they are doing for people whose H1's are at the brink of expiration.
I don't see any other way they will ever give heed to this problem i.e. where no monetary gains are involved.

Point noted. So we sang it for respect. So from what you say, it is possible for one to remain on green card forever? what are the advantages/disadvantages?
Citizenship comes 5 years later, if one's interested (and may not be everyone's goal).
Singing a country's national anthem is also different than taking the pledge of allegiance (the latter means you are pledging your loyalty to the United States):
