Hey Guys,
I don't know why they are saying it is is TOP 10, remember it is not just the heading "Immigration" we are voting for!!! Please do not make that mistake, you cannot take back your vote!!
The 1st Immigration question is for illegals at #4, looks like everybody thought wrong & voted for that!!
OUR QUESTION IS BURIED IN THE NEXT FEW PAGES, LIKE SOMEONE POINTED OUT #71 & #180 OR SO!! Guys do not mislead!!

Wooooooooohoooooooooooooo...
I received a sms saying that my case status has been updated (weird they sent it @ 9:25 pm PT). I was like here comes another biometrics appointment... but still let's check the status online. To my surprise and by god's grace, case status was changed to "Card/Document Production" (still cannot believe it). I dunno what triggered this but i did contact my Congressman yesterday. My wife's status has also changed to "decision" - should move to "Card production" soon.
My suggestion to all of you - please don't lose patience and do whatever you can from your end to expedite your case. It's your GC and you've to make sure you get it. Contact I/O, infopass and congressman/senator. Don't expect anything from your lawyers as they only care about money and it is in their best interest to see your case pending (more RFEs, EADs, APs, etc).
Thanks and all the best to all of you out there still waiting for your GC.

Congratulations and best of luck to you on this new journey. I was looking through forums today and saw that I have exactly the same issue as you. (even the email text was identical to what you posted). Can you please inform how you spoke to second level IO?
I plan to contact local congresswoman as well, was there a letter or something you faxed over to them?
Appreciate the guidance, thank you

There is a weekly conf call with attorney Prashanthi on thursday 9 pm EST. In one of the calls I had this question and the answer is that once you use AC21, the most recent company were you are working and where your GC got approved will be your sponsor so u have to stay with that company for 6 months ( the time duration is debated in other threads)

As per my research and talking to customer service of few american and india insurance companies, You are partly right that no one covers pre-existing conditions.
But indian companies like Icici lombard, Bajaj allianz, tata aig etc cover emergency life saving treatment even if it was due to the pre-existing conditions. Which means if one is diabetic, reguler sugar check and doc vists will not be covered but if say patients develops a critical condition (e.g kideny failure etc) then the treatment is covered.
But american companies do not cover even the emergency treatment.
Hope this helps
I have talked to IMG sales rep, he said they won't cover for pre existing conditions. He also said that as far as his knowledge is concerned there is no company out there that covers pre existing conditions when I asked him about it.
My final assumption is that any insurance we buy anywhere, just covers illnesses that are developed after the coverage starts.
Any corrections??

What you are seeing right now in US, you'll see that in India begining next year. Indian Property market is ripe for a crash. I wouldn't invest a penny until the dust settles...
You have to understand how the market in India operates versus how it is run in developed countries especially in USA. I don't know if you noticed, but all the property transactions are conducted on credit in USA with minimum persnal contribution ( i.e. down payement). And now in hindsight, we all can understand how this practise was reason for bubble-brust. As an interested home-owner looking for houses currently, I have first hand experience. I say that beacuse people out-bidding me, even in todays market conditions, are putting down zero amount in down payment and in-turn even financing closing costs. So when you have minimal of personal equity at stake, it bothers you least to take risks on other peoples ( say banks) money.
Now lets go to India, and I will stick to North-India, as that's where I have first hand expereience from. Go and talk to any property dealer and enquiry about properties. Wait for few weeks and return to find the rates have gone up. Well lets assume, you agreed upon the sale price and are now ready to conduct transaction. The property dealer is not going to ask you for SS number to check credit wortheness, but rather will ask for cash amount. You pay cash, you have the papers else don't waste time. So with business model, their is little risk involved and hence property business in North-India remains sizzling hot.
If you can afford you must buy piece of land in North India. ALthough maintaining it always remains challange as their are no laws protecting you from Rich-Police-Politician gangs.

Hi core members,
I am willing to play a more active part in this if you can utilise me in anyway. I live in Redmond WA and my wife works in a major software company. I will be completing my 6 years on H1 early next month so I should have plenty of time on my hands. I was working full time in a processor company as a Hardware Design Engineer, most of these 6 years..but unfortunately my GC with them wasn't going anywhere so we decided to move from Austin to Seattle a year and a half back. We didn't envision the retro problem in the Eb2 category and just missed the bus as our PERM filing(from my wife's employer) was a tad too late. My H1 was initially expiring in June so I thought it was too late to apply last year when I saw the retro in EB2. I wish I had applied for my GC somewhere at that stage as I was able to recapture some time on my H and also the I140 filings seem to be a lot quicker this year.
But whats gone is gone....truth of the matter is that I will have to wait for the backlog to clear up...which could take years without legislation.
I would like to play a more active role with trying to garner support for the Skill bill, so please let me know if I can help with anything.
Regards

This is how I used my EAD. I filed 485/EAD/AP in July 2007. I did not do anything till Feb-2008. I made a call to my employer in Feb-2008 (6 months after I-485) and asked him to give me a raise. He was aware of the fact that I can use AC-21 and leave anytime. We renegotiated everything, this time heavily in my favor (for a change). I got 20% salary hike effective from that very day. I kept same employer, same job, same client but used EAD and AC-21 to put pressure on my employer. Needless to say, in the past, I have been on the receiving side of the pressure from employers because of H1-B too.

Yes I agree with you legal immigration is not only EB category, but EB+spouse+child category is the largest when we say Legal Immigration, plus questions are posed by Engineers & Doctors and that automatically tells the person who is reading that it is about EB category. But you are welcome to form your questions and post and we will make sure that that becomes popular. If you see the situation from where I am standing the glass is half full my friend!
Hope things are going well with you, your research and wisdom is always appriciated.

Employment based immigration is a very small part of legal immigration.
Here is a break down of legal immigration #s for 2006 according to Yearbook of Immigration Statistics, published by Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) Office of Immigration Statistics (OIS) (available at Spotlight on Legal Immigration to the United States (http://www.migrationinformation.org/USfocus/display.cfm?id=651) By Gretchen Reinemeyer and Jeanne Batalova | Migration Policy Institute, November 2007).
1,266,264 immigrants were granted legal residence in 2006.
159,081 immigrants who received green cards through sponsorship from their US employers accounted for 12.6% of all legal permanent residents.
However, 87,702 (or 55.1%) of the employment-sponsored immigrants were spouses and children of principal applicants.
The share of employment-preference immigrants has varied between 3.3 percent (59,525) in 1991 and 22 percent (246,878) in 2005.
The other categories are family preference (802,712), refugee + asylee (216,454), Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986 + parolees (43,546) and Diversity Lottery (44,471).
Employment based immigration is legal. However, it may help to add legal to the title.
Employment based immigration is skilled. I think employment based immigration includes cooks, priests, .... They consider themselves to be skilled just like everyone else!
If you just ask for improving legal immigration, they will improve family based or asylum.
As some persons learnt yesterday, legal immigration has very low priority as compared to undocumented. Similarly, employment based immigration has no priority in legal immigration!
Hope things are going well with you, your research and wisdom is always appriciated.

Agreed that this will throw out all the crappy body shoppers. This is what we need in future not to make it difficult for future h1-b or other people. We should infact support this bill as this will weed out many Indian Body shoppers and benefit everyone.
This is nothing new but most of it is just implementing what is already in low. Thats my take on it.
You are talking like an anti-immigrant. Are you one of those on this forum?
Just because you are out of H1B are now on EAD, you want nobody else to come in.
Did you not yourself come through a consulting company? Did you not use a consulting company to get H1 for your wife or get a substitute labor? If you lose your job today you will be going to these consulting companies only to beg for a job. Once you get your green card you will be starting one yourself if you are smart. So let us see this as an anti-immigrant bill.

I agree too with the original post by pointlesswait !! ..digital signature is good ..or if there is a site which allows people to show their support (I guess there are sites like these) .. also, in the document we should include these points (small and precise document) ..
- why legals are suffering
- advantages that legal immigration brings to US
- the effect of few senior professionals leaving the country etc .
..for e.g. ..if a senior programmer or lead gets frustrated and goes back then all this happens ..he / she takes the job away with him ..and in turn trains 10 other people (so more jobs go away). also along with a skilled person - all the investment and taxes are lost ..(for eg ..house + prop tax + living expenses etc etc) .. and the fact that US is turning older (i.e average age ..) etc etc
and a related point ..each IV member should try to contact 5 other immigrants and tell them about IV ..and they in turn should atleast show some sort of support

I recently went to South Korea and entered the US on the AP since I didn't feel that I had enough time to wait for my H-1B stamped in my passport at the US emabassy in Seoul. Before leaving the US, I consulted with my attorney on this issue and she assured me that my H-1B is valid as long as I file the extension and maintain terms of the H-1B visa.
Per your attorney, you need to file an extension. How soon does one have to file? Do you have to file one even if the current one is still valid for more than 6-month? Have you done so since your travel? Thanks in advance.
