Paskal,
Personally, I feel state chapters is a not-working concept. Having bigger chapters like TriState, Midwest... and better still 'East Coast chapter' is a face saver until we have sufficient numbers. There should we a minimum threshold say 40-50 [I'm keeping it low] members to sanction a state chapter.
I question why there should even be a MI chapter, when there are hardly 3-4 (am I exaggerating?) active members and the newsgroup is dead for all purposes? It's depressing and demotivating. We are better off in bigger regional groups until we have sufficient numbers to justify a chapter [ supply to follow demand, and not vice versa].
Right now, active members in not-so-active state chapters feel abandoned. They don't have an active chapter, and active chapters in other states don't want them ( go to your own). For e.g in there was no MI chapter, I would be a member of Midwest chapter or East Coast chapter, adding numbers to those.
they were not formed at the last moment in most cases
what makes you think people participate in those? from personal experience
in the MN chapter, it's hard to even get replies to e mails, forget meetings etc. of late though i'm glad to say the MN chapter has really beugun to pick up again.
ask the tri state guys how much effort they put locally- meetings- fliers- phone calls, all by a handful of volunteers. so all this is good in theory and yes it takes time. but the apathy (even hostility) that was encountered was frightening. ask chanduv23 someday what the tri state guys went through...

you are half right, the country quota laws were put much earlier than the off shoring companies, but remember that the retrogression only started in the last 10 years when those companies came in the picture and skewed the lines .. that's ur cause and effect!
I am in software and would be satisfied with resticting this rule to the software field, but feasibility wise, rules won't get micro-tailored this way.
I always tell myself i shouldn't go on with the discussion, but here i go again..
any 12 step process to quit?
You're confusing the cause-and-effect. The country quota laws were put in MUCH earlier than any offshoring companies started doing H1s. It might in fact be the opposite, meaning that these companies are hiring qualified people who weren't getting GCs.
And besides these companies are all software cos that came up in the last 10 yrs, why should that stupid rule affect any person in a non-software field?
Yes we know that the current rules make the journey longer. The point is that it is unfair and that's why we should start trying to change it!
Basically it is very difficult to understand another person's pain. Especially when you're set up to gain from it.

Got my approval but my spouse hasn't yet received one.
We e-filed it together through the same account. My LIN was constantly getting updated with the status but not my husband. I also received the notification when my application was approved. I got my approval in the mail today too (about 1 month turnaround time) .But we haven't received any notification on my husband's case. And the online status hasn't changed either. Did anybody else face this? Not sure how to follow-up. Any pointers?
Call the 1-800 number in the approval notice and select the options 1->7->4->3 and they will be able to help check the status of the application. You need the receipt no when you call them

No one on Capitol Hill could fail to be impressed by IV's exceptional organization and by the strength and the reasonableness of it's message. The NYTimes and Washington Post coverage confirms that IV is an organization with a major role to play in crafting future legislation. Well done all!!!

Now I see why you got banned. What you did not realize is others were not rejoicing anything "AT YOUR EXPENSE". They were just enjoying what was available to them. You are the one who wants to make it a zero sum game i.e. gain for others is loss for you and vice versa.
While others were celebrating what was good for them, you want to rejoice others pain. That is just *sic*. I retract my earlier support for you.
Do I think that its unfair that people (I started my GC in May 04) from 06,07 will clog up queue, yes, but such is life. Can't do much about that can we? So enjoy whatever good is happening. Please remember, what goes around comes around. If you rejoice others unhappiness, you too will soon join them.

'And finally, if you do rejoice at the revisions of July bulletin because that would somehow do justice to you and your other BEC brothers, please rejoice privately, not publicly. Rejoice all you want, if that's what gives you happiness, but send PMs to your BEC friends or do it over the phone. Have a barbeque at your home. Have a conference call and celebrate. '
If all others can rejoice the open of visa filing at our expense publicly, why couldn't we rejoice something that'd bring fairness? Why don't they rejoince in private? You think they have us in mind? I call that BS.

ClaiGC. Thanks a lot! Wasn't aware of these issues. Yeah, the biggest plus point is -->"EAD allows you to work any type/number of jobs that is the big PLUS though!" I hope this alone outweighs the cons of EAD :-) Freedom from employer slavery. And I assume the renewal can be done by the applicant rather than being dependent on the employer as in H-1.

But I agree with Tito to some extent. Especially, if the degree is from even a slightly lower ranked school like Arizona or Northwestern, the returns are not there, and there is a great deal of evidence in that direction.
But it's still just my 2 cents.
Northwestern lowly ranked for MBA ? gotta be kidding. Kellogg School of business brushes shoulders with the very best including Wharton, MIT and Harvard.

Logiclife, thanks for your message. As usual your message is powerful and speaks to our conscience.
Guys n Gals in Texas,
IV needs you. A grassroot organization like IV can't function to its full potential without your active participation.
It is surprising that Needhelp's enthusiasm isn't rubbing off on you, give it a chance, join the next chapter meeting, become more active and make us successful

When exactly did you submit your application? I just called a few minutes ago to ask about mine (which was submitted early May) and the guy said I should not be affected by this as I should already be well into "the process by now" meaning I should have already been assigned a visa. He spoke very very slow...so I don't know if he was 100% sure of what he was saying:confused:
My 485 application was also received my USCIS in second week of May '07. Does this mean that they have alloted visa number to me as well? I am confused :(

To me the long wait and inaction of government to do something about it is human rights violation.
A person works for 10 or more years in this country and is bound by it's employer's wish for such a long period of time is a human rights violation.
Government may create laws but it is also a responsibility of government to provide remedy to a problem caused by the law.
It's a clear indication that US government don't care about the long delays. The only solution to this is change in quota law for EB category or some special executive decision to end the delays. We must STRONGLY PROTEST GOVERNMENT'S INACTION. Should that be a court action or a public demonstration. I will contribute to both the actions.
So my question to you all, can we take action on the basis of Human Rights Violation or Indirect Slavery?

HI RISKER I GOT FEW QUESTIONS. THESE QUESTIONS MAY WELL BE ASKED BY DEFENDATS(DOL) WHEN YOU FILE LAWSUIT.
1. WHY DIDNT YOU UPDATE TO PERM LABOR WHILE RETAINING PRIORITY DT
2. DID YOU CONSIDER RIR AND REGUALR CASES DIFFERENCES WHEN ARE SUEING FOR FIFO
3. DID YOU FIND PEOPLE FROM THE SAME COMPANY WITH DIFFERENT FILING DATES APPOVED NEW AHEAD OF OLD FILING DATE( THIS WOULD GIVE YOU A STRONG REASONING WHEN YOU WANT TO SUE). COMPANYS PROFILE CAN INFLUENCE A LOT ON DECISION MAKING EX.. MICROSOFT VS DESI COMPANY.
4. HOW MANY CASES YOU HAVE STUDIED FOR VIOLATION FIFO. COLLECT DATA FROM BEC APPROVED PEOPLE AND THE PEOPLE STILL STUCK THERE.
I WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE THE INJUSTICE DONE BY DOL. HEY BUT BEFORE JUMPING THE GUN GET YOUR AMMUNITION READY THEN CONTACT CORE AND THEN SEE FROM THERE.....
GOOD LUCK
Hi mallikonnet,
I THINK YOU CANT RETAIN THE PRIORITY DATE WHEN YOU APPLY FOR PERM.
WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE TRADITIONAL CASES HERE FOR FILING. SOME CASES FROM THE SAME EMPLOYER WITH PD 2005 ARE TAKEN BEFORE WITH PD 2003.

why didnt ur friend apply for MBA in canada?....i think a lot of people have misconceptions and pre-conceived notions about canada.......they think of US as the best and canada does not even figure in their list of options......i have got fooled once into h1b to US unaware of the broken immigration system.......wont happen again......i believe the ones in US on h1b visa from india should spread the word about the pathetic EB 2/EB3 india scenario so that no one else gets lured into US by h1b candy
Yes it was his first lesson. Yes US is good but not for EB2-I/EB3-I. I was also fooled when I came for my MS before. Not anymore.

Is it possible to get an emergency AP 90-days after the renewal application receipt date?
The reason I'm asking is because I would like to purchase airfare now for travel in January .. but am concerned that my AP won't be approved within the 90-day period USCIS mandates.

"Less number of attendees" had a big impact in our minds and it sidelined one of the positive outcome of the meeting and that is outcome of Q&A with the Guest.
Guest answered many questions personal - EB based immigration and other immigration but in my opinion we could get very precise answers on following questions raised by attendees in more clear manner without leaving any doubts and ifs and buts.
Q:1 What need to be done if one has different "A" numbers on I-140 and 485?
Q:2 Age old confusion - Using AC21 after 180 days - How to use it.
AND WE ALL COULD GET VERY PRECISE ANSWERS IN A VERY PROFESSIONAL MANNER FROM A WONDERFUL GUEST(Attorney) AND THAT WITHOUT PAYING HOURLY FEE.

Giving suggestion, since i went thru similar situation,i.e moved to a diff state.
We moved to Florida from California last week. Did AR-11 yesterday. We are about to file AP, our I-485 is pending at NSC but Florida comes under TSC.
File AR-11 first, after you see the LUD's(should not take more than 5 businesss days), which means ur new address is acknowledged by USCIS sytem , apply for AP
So not sure where to send our application.
Send to your current residence Service center, i.e. TSC
Intending to send following supporting documents.
1. 2 PP Size photos
2. EAD copy as we switched from H1B to EAD
3. I-485 receipts.
Should we include any additional docs like Copy of your previously issued AP or passport copy (1st ,2nd page and last 2 pages) or Last expired I-94 copy.
4.Old approved AP copies, if any.
Any advise would be of great help.
I did paper filing, it took about 3 weeks to get approved.Hope this helps
Thanks
Raj
