I think many of us go through these kind of tragedy. One of my friends got laid off last month and his employer did not give him the letter to file I-485. Now he is back to the line where he was way back in 2000. He has to start his whole immigration process all over again. This guy lost job twice just before he could adjust his status. He is in USA from over 10 years now and he holds nothing but a PD of 2002. There is nothing in US Immigration Law to protect folks like him. What a shame to the US Immigration system.
This may happen to many of us, not only on the job front, anywhere down the line, untill we get our Green Card. For example, what if USCIS reject our application at the end moment, or else what if USCIS deny our I-485 for a reason beyond our control; there are tons of reasons, our life is shaky until we get our green cards.
Would that be nice if we ask something to protect us just like AC 21? For several folks, even to get to the stage of AC21 is a big milestone. Is it not the time to ask congress to protect all H1-B holders who play by rules and who are here over 10 years, with something similar to AC21? When they can consider giving green cards for those undocumented who are here since only 2005, what we legals ask for; besides just play by the rules and stand in the line and leave everything at the mercy of the adjudicator?
There should be some protection for those who come under these unforeseen clutches of law, besides fighting for mere retrogression.

Please help!!!!!!
I just filed i-485. My pD is Jan 2004
i-140 has been previoulsy approved. I was laid off but my original employer agreed to give me evl, but with the way the economy is going they are not doing well.
I have another employer which I am working now with.
How likely is to get an approval (or an rfe for paystubs?) before 180 days.
I am eb3 row
Thanks, I am very depressed it took too long I guess and the economy changed and now the whole future of my family is pending

I found a link in this website to the Talent Bill http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=349 (I am new, sorry I didn't paste it before). This is the bill which will let us work, is anyone lobbying for it to be considered?

It's not a secret society. I saw them all at DC. May not know the names fully, but have seen them all. No ma'am I never thought they were aliens invading earth :p
I'm not anti-IV or anti-Core. I appreciate the work being done. I just posted my feelings on the way things work here, with the sincere hope that things can be improved. Definitely not for nitpicking.
Coming back to my point - you have answered it yourself. I think... I think... Here I think... I don't think..... It's a guessing game for us.
I'm not asking IV to post every financial transactions over here. It wouldn't hurt to publish summaries - xxx grands spent on yyyy action item. We collected xxxx amount, we need yyyy more.
Even Know-Nothing organizations like NumbersUSA do that. We know how much they spent last year and how much they're spending this year. There's a reason for it. Lobbying firms need to declare how much money they received from their clients each quarter.
There's a website called OpenSecrets.org where you can find out how much each organization spent on lobbying, including IV. So the figures are not so secret at all. In fact 'open secrets' after the next quarter.
Coming back to NumbersUSA, you'll find their views of every frigging piece of legislation in Senate and the House. Where's the IV analysis of STRIVE act? SKIL Bill? NU has a scorecard for every Congressman, what all they did etc. And here we are afraid to talk about what the lawmakers said , as if each one of them will be sponsoring a separate new bill to increase GC numbers for EB immigrants, and it will hurt if anti-immigrants learn of this plan!
We live in an open society. Each legislation, each ammendment gets posted on Thomas way before it comes up for discussion. NumbersUSA and other anti-immigrant organizations need not look here for what's coming up for discussion. They have their sources in Congressional staff/aides. In fact, most of us learn about upcoming legislations browsing NumbersUSA website, instead of on IV - as it should be! The kind of unneccessarily high secrecy, seen here, is self-defeating.
Trust is bi-directional. If you don't trust others, they won't trust you. It's easier to participate in things you know and understand, than following things you're instructed to trust blindly[ as in 'I won't tell you anything. I'm doing all I can to help you. You have to trust me on that']. Why do you think 'Know-Nothings' lost to Whigs?
I got a feeling that some members feel that IV run a secret community with-in IV (I am not sure how many watched the movie "The Stepford Wives" ).
I think that core members and volunters knows strategy and action plan well before others. I think there would be hierarchy within that also.
I dont see anything wrong in that.
Here I think what goes on internally.. If you are more active in the threads you would sure get a message from IV moderators about ur willingness to volunteer. IV core seriously does not have the ability to read the psyches of each individaul member and invite them int to the secret soceity(?). Only possible way to know for them is how much active you are for a while. i dont think there are any specific paramters for that , it is a matter IV core getting convinced that u r serious enough. Not a day or two.. How long .. and how serious you are with ur ideas...
About funds .. none of the organizations declare their monetory dealings openly. There is a youtube video by logiclife on this. see it if u have not laready seen it.
Keep up the good work.. Sure you would become the member of secret soceity soon :).
I read sometime back nixtor became IV core member recently..

Guys,
There's no doubt CIR is going to be brought in this year. How much of it or any of it will get passed, is the issue. Congress, as last year is determined to amalgamate us with the illegals so they can freely oppose the bill and indirectly kill both kind of immigration. I think we should put all our resources towards lobbying and make as many friends on the hill as possible.

I had H1 from company A with dates from 2005 to 2008. after working with Company A for one year, I moved to company B in 2006 (04/10/2006) and My H1 transfer with Company B is still pending. I got H1 RFE query from CSC last month with biglist of documents. Now I got news that CSC denied couple of H1s it seems recently..So can I ask company C to file H1 transfer petition so that even if CSC denies my H1 from Company B, I can maintain my legal H1 status. Or Can I ask Company B to file another H1 transfer petition at Vermont service center (because my company is in that region).
Please advise me on this...Thanks a alot in advance.

I think I know how this works. They would outsource this program to some govt contractor (or ask the govt contractor who is working on their data ) to produce that report which costs (<10$ worth of time/effort, if they have all the data).
If all they want is money ..so be it. I am ready to pony up $50 for this,if we all approach together. But as someone suggested country of chargability is a must.

Berry, Appleman & Leiden LLP is very good firm. I have very good experience with them. They completed all my paper work on Jun 30, so that they can file by July 2. Also the attorney and the para-legal were really good and replied to my questions patiently. The website is http://www.usabal.com/
Karthik
Are you kidding me? You are recommending http://www.usabal.com/ aka Berry, Appleman & Leiden LLP? DO NOT USE THIS LAW FIRM. RUN AWAY FROM IT AS FAST AS YOU CAN. They totally screwed up my case. My PD became current on June. I asked them repeadtly to file my 485. And I asked them for like 1 1/2 month. But they waited till July to file my case. So, I was affected by this visa fiasco. Their lawyer do not answer phone calls, they don't return voic mail and they do not response to email for 3-4 days. It is a totally BS firm. If possible go with small immigration law firm.

What the hell do u mean?
How many people in EB2 do a different job from EB3?
Most of the people in EB2 almost do the same programmer job. I have been in this country for a long time. I have friends who have done their MS from colleges like stanford, santa barbara. I don't see a difference in their role. I have more than 10 yrs of exp. I have worked in different roles too.
For jerks like u to come and talk abt people in EB3 being unskilled, makes me sick.
Shut the f*** up
And I think you need some reading lessons .... read my post ... the comparison is between categories for eg EB2 for IN/CHina vs EB3 for ROW
In any case the classification is not based on one's country of origin or individual's personal qualifications ... it is based on what the job requires. heck an individual having Phd can get a job which requires only 2 yrs study and no exp that doesnt mean that they are any less qualified that a person in EB1 for any country .... but the most value gained is in the EB1 category job....hence the argument.... nothing to do with where you are born or what individual qualifications you possess .... Im sure you are highly qualified and educated ... think and read ...

WE need to learn lesson from this exercise is that being part of illegals only gives us wrong end of the stick,
let's try to spend our money and energy ONLY for us not to reform any major law, not increase H1B qouta and not to exempt anyone,
letz ask for simple and fair solution under existing law,

A group of us just went to Lamar Smith's Austin District Office and detailed his liason about the bills, benefits and information about IV. She said she will have them Fedex'd today to their Washington office and keep us informed about congressman's stand.
Great job LSK,
Please follow up with the local office and encourage your local friends/family to call.

I agree with Bharat Premi...
Even according to my lawyer there are not much cases in 2004 /2005 EB3 I...
Guess many have chosen EB2 as they were eligible by that time .I dont understand why EB3 I is being projected so negatively.
Many have already transferred EB3 to EB2.
2001/2002 may be there are still duplicate open applications which USCIS have to sort out .
Lets hope for the best...But seeing Bharat Premi responses...builds hope.
