It seems that a solution to a case like that would be the SKIL bill or an amendment to this existing H lawAgree with that. But your language in previous message is completely unacceptable. It was like reading something on NumbersUsa.:(

The guy in black shirt/pant is he a IV member? Next to him is definitely an american Kid. If they indeed are american citizens that listened to our cause and joined the rally, hats off to them.

Yes, thats them. Thanks for the find.
IVers do you see my point, Americans are very understanding people. If you can explain your case then they will join you and make you stronger.
Cheers!

The evidence of experience should include Job Responsibilities(detailed), Salary, Dates and peferably on company letterhead (or at least should have full contact information of person writing the letters, to prove authenticity). If the papers you already provided (affidavits from co-workers, previous co. offer letter, yearly appraisal letters and last few pay stubs) have all this info, they should be enough to prove your experience.
Are you sure your 'company lawyer' is handling this case well? There are innumerable horror stories of company "lawyers" messing up a perfectly good case and 'forgetting' to submit all documents with the petition. Please get all the papers from your company lawyer and consult with your own attorney to discuss the case ASAP - it will be really worth paying for this consultation.
Good Luck!

Hello,
In all the stories of INS, USCIS, DHS that I've read here, the lack of visibility, customer service and accountability seem to be the common theme.
However, I was pleasantly surprized by a call from IO a few weeks back in local office asking me for extra documents (Current employment letter as the original one was from 2007, 2007 tax returns and 2007/08 W-2).
He told me that though he had sent a letter, the letter would take a few days to reach and hence he wanted to call me up. He also told me that as my original fingerprints are expiring on 26th Feb, I should send the response as soon as possible to enable him to process the application.
Though I still don't have any extra hope that the application will be processed soon, it was nice to see a change in USCIS approach.
Hope this was not an exception to rule and we see more such behavior from USCIS that helps in clearing us from this awkward limbo situation.
They might thinking to deport you asap!!!!!!!! Just kidding!!! I dont have much hope from these guys. My finger print medical expired last year and I didn't get any letter or call.
Anyway having + Attitude and is good thing.

Note that DoS has not wasted visa numbers after 2006. For all practical purposes, days of visa number wastage is history. Why do you think the July 2007 fiasco happened ?

I have used AC21 and have not sent a letter yet to USCIS as it is optional and that is what my attorney recommended...that is to wait for an RFE (I have changed address as I moved to a diff. state; chances of an RFE increases)
That said, I am wondering that with a G28 representation on the files with USCIS, if I send a AC21 letter all by myself (without attorney), will it be honored by USCIS ? I am comtemplating of doing this as I wanted to prempt the RFE thereby saving precious time (when date is current) and the money that I would have to pay my attorney when the RFE reaches him (I would rather he reply to an RFE but want to give my best to avoid it)
any ideas ?
Yeah, yours is a good thought, Murthy law firm charges $2000.00 for Ac21 case and then representing you through 485, any RFE takes $250.00.

I am all for abonding H1B, when did IV promoted H1B program, we have this mess today due to H1B and itz loopholes,
I don't use word slave very lightly, but we need to accept the fact many of H1Bs are handcuffed with current system, We need system similar to Austrialia, Canada a point based system or very similar to Nurses in US they get GC before even coming to US.
H1Bs are truly pulling the wages down, I know I did when I came here I have no argument with anti-immigrants with this subject, but giving GCs to these H1Bs will have fair chance to compete in Market
Corporate leaders such Bill Gates and Senators such as Kennady do know this issue and have deep understanding but they don't give a rat about it,
Please do not say negative things against the H1B visa guys. Remember if it was not for the H1B, you guys would be in ur home countries right now. Let us all please stop abusing the VERY priviledge we have. H1Bs are FREE to change jobs at will. If you dont like your job CHANGE IT or GO BACK. Slaves cannot change jobs OR go back to their own countries. We cannot expect the system to start bowing to our wishes everytime we dont like what we currently have. No i am not an anti immigrant, Yes I am from India and stuck like the rest of you in retrogression. Right now i would walk a million miles to obtain an H1B visa for my spouse who is stuck in limbo coz of this H1B lottery.
Also this discussion is FUTILE. IV now after 2 years of slogging has a "NAME BRAND". Logiclife has explained that this name cannot be changed. It is a good idea to be called "Legal Immigration Voice" but it is TOO late now. Instead of discussing this let us help the Current Immigration Voice name to achieve success.

I now applied for EAD for my wife (not because she is going to work, just go get SSN). I do plan to get SSN for her and then file amended 2008 return. I wonder if I will get stimulas package then (the one which was given in 2008)?
I amended my tax for 2007 (filed in early 2008), intially filed with my spouse's ITIN, to change my spouse's ITIN with new SSN. IRS did not send any check. They simply replied that people without ITIN are not eligbile, which I knew, and which was the reason of my amended tax filing. Looks like simply changing ITIN to SSN is not treated as a tax amendment.
If changed situation (new SSN, children etc.) allow the check, this year's tax should take care of it as per instructions on IRS website.

As I am writing, I understand there are 1900 active members and 5800 members. Even if 50% of the members bring one new member each, there will be a tremendous increase. And this can be done via internet: web and emails. Set a target (50% increase?),deadline (Oct 31st?) and have weekly count of new additions displayed prominently. Democrats did that for Howard Dean's campaign and the model has been used for subsequent elections by both the parties.. There were many new members who were asking for rallies on streets. There are others who want to send flowers, 'Remember me' cards to lawmakers. A few others wanted to put up fliers in INdian and Chinese grocery stores. Even 20% of effort to carry out those activities would fetch at least one new member per old one, then the target can be achieved.
IV core had been very voiceferous, when we needed to achieve the funding target in summer. Can they become more involved chalking out a plan to
increase membership, if that really matters? In the membership enrollment form, if there is a field asking if some old members brought the applicant in, then we would know how many old ones really care to do something. Without personal outreach and contact, the rate of new additions will never increase.
Each member has potentially minimum of two votes to spare 6 years from the day he or she gets GC. When presidential elections are decided by ~600 votes in a single voting district, even thousands of potential votes from IV community would appear to be a juicy carrot.
In my work community, there are ~100 Chinese and Indian staffers. As far as I know,my Chinese colleagues, who are more in number and most are in some stage of GC, have not heard of IV or even SKIL bill. They don't need to as all of them are EB2 and hence they are retrogressed for just over an year. Among lesser numbered Indian-origin staffers, the story is the same. On my part, I can spread the word here and breath down the shoulders of some and get them in. I am working for a non-IT non-profit establishment. Just imagine, what happens if a personal quest for new members happen in an EB3-rich IT or finance sectors?
Any suggestions for concrete plan of action? Without a plan, committment from some of us to act as catalysts and keep up the momentum this drive will not work. Bringing in at least one new member per old one is much better than rallying, sending flowers, chocalates, 'Do me a favor' cards etc.
Are we upto this?
Thanks everyone for being patient and supporting us. The work is happening at all ends and it is an uphill task.
We really need to increase our membership. Higher membership will mean us looking tall when we meet lawmakers. Please all try to help us spread the word of IV to everyone you know that is stuck in retrogression. We represent at least half million people but we currently not even have 6 thousand members. Thus we have to bring lot many people into IV. I would encourage everyone to pls. register on this forum instead of being visitors.
Pls try to help us increase our membership in your own capacity, in any way you can. This is something everyone on this forum can help us with.

Wish we would not getinto United States Civics discussions and concentrate on Increasing memberships and contributing.
Dont forget the goal....there are a lot of hurdles ahead as pointed out by Sen Durbin and elk already
To have a meaningful discussion / resolution to our problems we should be aware of the process.
We SHOULD have discussions on United States civics. If we are trying to become permanent residents of this country, we need to learn about the political process.

If he is going to start with new PERM. new I-140, he can port the old PD based on old I-140.
I disagree based on the following:
Accordingly, guidance in the June 19, 2001, memorandum provides that the labor
certification or approval of a Form I-140 employment-based (EB) immigrant petition shall
remain valid when an alien changes jobs, if:
(a) A Form I-485, Application to Adjust Status, on the basis of the EB
immigrant petition has been filed and remained unadjudicated for 180
days or more; and
(b) The new job is in the same or similar occupational classification as the job
for which the certification or approval was initially made.
note the "and" between (a) and (b) and note point (a) which states that a pending 485 is necessary for an alien to change jobs

:mad: 12/11/2006: USCIS Considers Termination of Concurrent Filing (140/485)
According to the USCIS rule-making agenda, the USCIS is to propose to terminate current concurrent I-140 and I-485 filing. The proposed rule is scheduled to be published in March 2007 with 60-day comment period. It is thus not imminent, but in the later part of next year(Oops!), the immigrant community may see a totally different filing procedure including electronic registration and filing just like current PERM labor certificaiton application procedure. Once the concurrent filing is terminated, the immigrants may experience a terrible pain as related to maintenance of nonimmigrant status pending I-140 petition, eligibility for 245K benefit, plus unavailability of EAD and AP pending I-140 petition, AC-21 180-day portability, etc. etc. Should the I-140 petition processing be dragged, the pain will be extremely unbearable!

Thanks guyz !!
I did spoke with Sheila Murthy Lawyers on chances of maintaining GC processing and Consular processing.
My firm is OK with my long Leave of Absence...Only thing that threw spanner in the wheel was comment from Sheila Murthy firm's advise.
Per them, to renew AP and EAD, I need to be phsically back in states and also stay in States for the duration of approval i.e. if it takes 3 months for renewal of AP and EAD, then I need to be in States for that duration.
I asked them what if I can apply 5months in advance, from Outside US and someone can fedex it to me. Max I can come back for few days.
.. Per them this will not work...
What do you guyz say ?
Many thanks !
I don�t think you need to be here from the day you apply AP to the day it get approved. If what I think is correct then I have one idea for you.
1) Now you can go out of USA on first AP, which is already approved
2) Come back for few days to apply 2nd AP again (6 moths before Current AP will expire)
3) Once you apply 2nd AP, you can go France again with first AP and then come back to US before first AP will expire.
4) After few days again you can go France with 2nd AP.
Since your PD is old, most probably you will get GC approval before 1st AP will expire.
This is just an idea but not sure how feasible it is.
