Does anyone know whats the protocol for the Bill to be passed???
After the Floor Debate the bill goes to White House or again there has to some measures taken from Senate???? I know there some initiative taken in Senate (last year)..
I am just trying to check if there is any timeline on how and when this bill will be passed.. :rolleyes:
Macaca has posted a thread explaninng the legislative process ..
Please go through it...
For a bill to become law...
1. House has to pass it..
2. Senate has to pass it..
They might pass different versions..
3. They have to resolve their differences through conference process.
4. The conference report is approved by both houses..
5. President signs it...
The sempember timeline looks realistic...
Please donot post the same question at multiple places...

Situation:
H1b valid until 2010, visa stamp expired.
AP available
Not recieved EAD yet
Can you we go on a cruise to Bahamas?
Also do Indian citizens need visa to Bahamas cruise?
Thanks in advance
I went through this process couple of years back,,,,(not sure if the laws are still the same)
Yes. Indian Citizens need a Bahamas visa to travel (Cruise) to Bahamas.
A Person needs a Valid US Visa or AP to enter back into US.
I went with a valid US Visa. I dropped my old I-94 while leaving US and received a new I-94 while entering US port (in Cruise).
Enjoy your trip to Bahamas!
I hope you will also contribute to IV efforts.

They do not need to be notarized as long as they are self-attested. Scanned copies are fine. Retain the original with you in case the CIS asks for it.
AFIK, the affidavits must be notarized.

Hello everyone. I was following the "IV in the News" Thread and I saw something that may be the reason why the layman thinks IV is an "Indian Organization".
DISCLAIMER:
1) Now b4 everyone jumps down my throat, i want to mention that i KNOW how hard IV core and supporting members have worked to get these articles into the media and I MORE MORE than appreciate that fact.
2) I am not trying to play "seperatist" here (as in Indians v/s Non Indians).
Now for the facts. I was going through the articles one by one and I compiled a list of articles matched up with a list of names. I have posted first names only.
NBC Nightly News: Thurs March 30 -> Shiva
Philadelphia Inquirer, Apr 8, 2006 -> Nozer, Kartik, Shreyas, Srikanth
News & Observer, Apr 12, 2006 -> Sarath
Washington Post -> Aman & Shilpa
Fox News Wkend Live 1:15 EST -> Aman
Austin American Statesman front page, May 8, 2006 -> Nilesh, Ashwini, Pratik
Diversity Inc, May 13 2006 -> Aman, Jitendra
Tulsa World, May 23 2006 -> Salil
MSNBC, May 22 2006 -> Aman
World Journal News, May 27 2006 -> Chinese News article but also mentions the IV is started by Indians.
Baltimore Sun Headlines, May 30 2006 -> Raj, Bharati, Shilpa
This list includes my name as well. If we observe carefully, almost all these articles have only Indians speaking out in the media. I know that these articles come up on the spot and the media team sometimes has only a few hours to report a candidate to the reporter. Also i know that a lot of these interviews were done by the core memebers themselves on the spot.
All I am saying is that if more such articles are done in future, can we have the Non-Indian members also step up and contact the IV core/media team coz this would truly lend a "multi-cultural" look to IV. The lay-person american does not know what IV is comprised of. With them What u see is what u get. They see Indians in the media and on the news speaking out about the Immigration wait times and they think IV is an Indian organization.
This is a request to both the core team and the non-indian active IV members to please step up and co-ordinate future (such) events so that multi-cultural faces can be seen in the media as well as when we go to meet the Congressmen.
Once again, no disrespect meant to either the core/media team or to the non-indians on this forum. I hope people can see my point. (I am an Indian citizen myself). If efforts in this direction are already being taken, i apologise in advance.
One point of mention. I read the article "Valley News, May 21 2006" & I saw people of a lot of nationalities speaking out about the Green Card process. That was really good to see.

Dude,
Nebraska is infact slower than Texas as far I-140/I485 goes. Checkout this link....http://www.murthy.com/news/n_nscexp.html
It says NSC is slower because they have extra VSC cases to deal with but would improve significantly once they are done with VSC cases in future.
My I-140/I-485 was filled in June 2006 too and its being processed in NSC. All we can do is wait and watch...

Rueb am a sensing just a touch of animosity toward Nikon ;)
Hahaha, despite the fact that an ever so considerate d100 user decided to sit himself at the edge of the runway to check his images on my last show shoot, effectively ruining 30% of my shots. I have no grudge against nikon except for the fact that it wouldnt have killed em to put some curves on that D70.

I always thought I was the only person going insane with this kind of wait and watch game being played with our lives. Good to see some company.

At what point of GC process you don't need your lawyer anymore? Is it true that after filing I-485, and if everything is smooth with ur case, you don't need lawyer.It's hard to answer. I still have a lawyer and all correspondence is going to lawyer. You never know how tough RFE/NOF could be. But I file EAD and AP myself without lawyer.

Murthy's lawyer suggested Consular processing as an option.
She explained that in Consular processing I still need continued Sponsorship from my firm, but it will revoke my 485 application. I will end up filling bunch of forms with USCI, including 824.
This was my PD will remain intact and when it becomes current, I will have to go to Indian Consulate and get Immigrant Visa from there.
IN this whole process My firm needs to continue sponsor my GC processing. Advantage is : I don't have to come and renew my EAD and AP every year.
If you really want to maintain your PD, you can go for CP while studying. After school finishes, if need be, you can always come back on H1 again before your GC is complete. This way you will have both options Europe and USA !!

Any advise/comments?
My wife worked as a full time employee and resigned after the delivery from Oct'08. She was paid the sick pay through a third party insurance and these wages are missing in the W-2. I tried contacting her employer and also wrote emails saying I would complain to IRS if they fail to provide a corrected W2. Today is 02/14 and we still didn't receive a new W2 for the sick pay or a corrected W2.
1) What consequences the employer would have to face if they fail to report correct wages on W2?
2) Does IRS is concerned about missing wages that are 1-2K?
3) Do you think I should complain to IRS?
I am planning to lodge an official complaint on Monday 02/16. I suppose it was a deadline date for all employers to provide W2 or a corrected one.

I am in a similar situation. My current H1B and my wife's H4 expire on June 20th, 2007. I have filed for my 7th year extension as well as my wife's H4 extension in Dec 2006. I got receipt notices for both the application with a notice date of Dec 21st, 2006.
I am planning to apply for my wife's H4-H1 in April this year under premium processing and I was wondering what would happen to her H4 application if her H1 petition gets approved first. Will she be out-of-status between June 21 and Sept 30, as her H1 would start on Oct 1st. Also, what happens to her H1 if her H4 is approved after H1.
Any thoughts.

Wow, I am really excited about all the support!
I know that with the weather up north (yep, I am in the deep south) it may seem impossible to train/run/walk now, but you can run indoors on a treadmill, cross train on the elliptical machine and even use indoor running tracks. At my gym, I manage to do 8 mile training runs on the indoor track, guys that is 81 laps around this itty bitty track! :) Nutty? yes; but when you are motivated, you can find a way.
The three national events we pick can be for later in the year, but each Team IV member can run local events (weather permitting) accross the country. The fundraising can be 3 events per Team IV member per year. That would be in keeping with the 3 national events we pick.
My idea is for Team IV members to host a targetted fund raising campaign - which is divided into 3 events over the span of 1 year. I have a host of ideas to present on activities you can do and you only have to choose 3 of them for the year. We can get into these details after I run my ideas by the Coordinator Group.
I am going to set up the Group this week, so those who have responded to me, look out for my e-mail from my yahoo account.
Let me just say this much for now. I have run several long distance races over the past 10 years in the US and each and everytime that I have run for a cause, I found myself more motivated to train and I had more fun throughout the process.
Another point I should have made earlier. America today is concerned about obesity and "which is the fatest or more obese state in the nation". We are constantly seeing news articles and polls about these topics. Let it be know that the legal immigrant community of IV promotes a healthy lifestyle by its Team IV campaign. Another positive spin-off for our community and IV.
Thanks everyone for your support and ideas, I am going to start working with the Senior Members this week.
