Dear Friends,
Please stay together....we will get this permission.
If our parents stay in US, US economy will improved. We will be buying health insurance and food for them.
We will stop sending money to our native country. All money we earned will be spend here. We will be travelling more. Shopping more. etc.
This will help to improve US economy. I want to see US become super country like how it was when Bill Clinton was president.
We have a great present now. I was impressed by his speech about family value and raising kids together as family. I am sure, we will get help from him.
You know, How J2 visa holder got permission to work in US. A person fight for it and got it for many.
Don't bother about a negative persons comments here.
If we stay together, we will get this permission. Anyway, after you become citizen you got that permission. We can request gov to give permission to GC holders too.
Please call the White house and talk to President directly...May be we should be able to get this done by May 1st. Keep us updated.

well there will always be certain exceptions everywhere....Michael Aytes did mention it publicly when he testified before congress in his document below
http://www.uscis.gov/files/article/I...as_30Apr08.pdf
he does mention that all these applications will be pre-adjudicated just short of visa number. So officially in my opinion they will not go back to these applications unless there is an exceptional condition which makes them do it. I can safely say that broadly it's not gonna happen.

I have been doing the same research for the past one month, here is my experience.
1. Termlife Vs Wholelife.
Term is better than whole life. Instead of going with whole life, you can have Term + Saving account. For example, if you need $500/year for term and $2500/year for whole life. Take the Term insurnace and pay $500/year, open a saving account and deposit $2000/year ($2500 - $500).
The only issue here is that Term will cover you till the age of 60-65 if you get 20-30 year fixed rate policy. But if you still have immovable assets at age 65, which you surely will, that you need protected for your dependents then you will not have any coverage at all because Term will last only its stated duration. If saving/investing during young age is the objective then Term is good, no doubt, because it's cheap and covers you from risk during young working years. But I guess no company gives Whole Life on H1 so there's not any other option.

Hi sertha1,
I have a similar situation. Can you please tell me how you resolved this problem?
Thanks

If you knew you wanted to convert back, you should have filed a 539 along with your husband's petition. Not too late, you can still do it but to revert back, they may come back asking for last 3 paystubs to prove you were still in status ona H-1.

can you hold these meetings on saturdays? weekdays are impossible for me with a 1.5 hr commute (common with most tri-state folks).
informal get togethers can be held at the flushing hindu center on sunday evening, at least for those who are hindus living in queens. (the majority here, i guess)
The idea was to make it easy for majority folks who work in Manhattan and surrounding areas. We were also concerned that the tri state folks travel long distances and work long hours during weekdays will need the weekends for themselves and a Friday night after work must be the best time.
But, yes, based on majority of the folks's response, we plan to do one more on a Saturday, but not in Flushing, location will be decided soon.

Please ...let us agree on this ...will get an EAD even if i-140 is pending while 485 is filed correct??
This is not a democracy or an American Idol show where it matters what most people think!
There is a law that clearly states it - you can file and are eligible to interim AOS benefits such as AP & EAD even when the I-140 is pending. I have colleagues (who applied 140 & 485 concurrently) get their EADs and APs long before they got AOS approva.
It's a different thing, not not to be confused with, that most people choose to continue with their H1 and not use EAD or AP because of the uncertainty until the 140 and 485 is approved.

Ok paskal, just because you are saying so. Otherwise, posts from the paid employees of these guys are very aggravating. These guys are making the situation worst and provoking guys like me to respond. I will not respond if these idiots will stop singing songs about the greatness of these opportunist guys who were no where seen in last 2 years. Now all of a sudden, when something is happening in the media, rather than joining the cheerleading squad, these hypocrites have emerged from a black-hole claiming to be champions of this community. Idiots…..

First it wasn't 1000, we had over 2000 people registered and many joined after or did not register. So please don't say 1000, it is extremely painful for everyone who attended to be considered as "not counted".
1. Politically having a rally in D.C makes it more visible for all the law makers there. Laws/amendments and all the political activity happens there. Rallies else where would make it to one or two news cycle but won't be remembered after wards.
2. Meeting lawmakers, staff from various constituents wrapped around an event like a rally helps a lot in getting the message across. It raises a lot of awareness.
3. I would have agreed with you that numbers like 100,000 matters, but after being there and seeing the amazing capabilities of IV to organize meetings and having members meet over 100+ meetings with law makers, staff, talking to to them, sharing personal stories, advertisement and media campaigns around D.C has convinced me that it has and will make a difference! Personally for me, it was an eye opener on how the system works and I totally understood exactly why IV leaders set it up this way just by being around and them for a few days!

Looks like you forgot the intense pain of what you claim to be "agonizing 5 years" in no time. If DOL were so particular in doing things on time and keeping up their promises then it wouldn't have taken 5 years for your labor to clear. With all due respect, please stop telling us about DOL deadline...it holds no ground.
We understand Immigration Reform Bills being discussed currently and the need to focus on them...however, only thing we (BEC victims) are trying to put across is that if someone from IV does get the opportunity to speak infront of the congress, please don't forget to highlight the BEC mess (PBEC in particular). Labor certification backlog is one big part of the whole broken immigration system. It can not be isolated. Even if it is administrative problem we need the lawmakers attention to get it fixed.
Ladies & Gentlemen
I can understand the emotion and commotion among my fellow beings who are stuck with BECs. I waited agonizing 5 years to get my labor cleared. We all clearly understand what are you guys going through.
But the thing is that Labor Certification issues are taken care with PERM implementation. Also the administration set up 2 BECs to take care of them back logs. Now the issue is purely administrative and not law making. Also BECs made it clear that by Oct 2007 all the back logs will be cleared.
Right now big things are happening in the immigration law making. So I think we should concentrate to get the best out of it and achieve our goals on the Green Card Visa issues. As Tom Tancredo is going to fight with teeth and nail against Immi Bills, we have to do the same.
There are many others issues we can lobby for such as
1) Starting H1B stamping inside the US again( Which was stopped in 2005)
2) Allow H1B spouses to work. etc etc
But I believe our priority for the time being should be Retrogression. I request all of you to use this thread for finding a person to testify.
thanks

I am following from the start of the original post. This was a post by a new member who appears to create rift among the EB2 or EB3. The reason I believe is he just want to incite in such a way that few other folks will respond and keep the thread floating. Later few other posts by himself were created with different ids. just observe the trend and you will notice it.
So folks dont respond any more and this rift creation will die down.

According to the report, there are 100K to 150K applications pending to be processed (guessing PD is current and hence includes dependents) and 500k to 750k applications expected if PD becomes current. If we assume 2.1 dependents on an average, this comes to 1M - 1.5M applications if PD is current. So is the total 1.1M - 1.65M? Does that sound right?

My current EAD expires this Friday. I e-filed on May 5th. Infopass after 90 days did not help. They approved my expedite request on 19th and said I should hear something in 14 days which is another 5-6 days.
I did contact my Senator (Cornyn) who actually offers to help with time-sensitive problems with federal agencies. This was about 2 weeks ago, even before I submitted my expedite request. I'm going to give them a call tomorrow to see if they have heard anything.
Despite all my attempts, nothing happened at NSC. The last resort, Local Congressman helped. The staff did an excellent job, resolved the issue in a matter of hours. Not only my EAD was approved right away, they also arranged a Letter indicating that my case was approved, so that I can present it to my HR.
Before I called the congressman's office, I did have very little or no hope, as I went thru many things. This is a very happy ending.
Thanks, and if anyone in the same boat, pls try all your options.
Good Luck

Malibuguy007 , you seem to me a guy who could save 2-3000 dollars per month and think you are in heaven(Typical GULTI mentality) . These are the points on basis of which i called life of H1 hell
1. Your spouse can't work . Think about their self esteem and self respect they are loosing.
2. You don't know about your future if tomorrow you loose your job , you will be kicked from this country.
Tell me what is hell then ? Don't think its just about counting dollars , think about your life stability and about your family members too. Try to come out of Sambhar-Rice world(thats the way you save money here and call US heaven). Live with pride ,ok . Fight for being treated like H1 ( HIGHLY SKILLED PROFESSIONAL) not slaves.
I hope now you feel we are in hell.
PS : I work with one of best semiconductor companies in world and earn decent salary .
All GULTIs , start giving me red and i don't give a** for that.
What the hell is wrong with you? Stop using Slurs. Eating Sambar Rice and curd rice does not make a life life with out pride.
Take your Slavery argument some where else. if you truely believe so, go to your masters on the hill and fight for abolishing slavery.
Not able to work does not directly cause loss of self esteem. Sorry to say this but this is the bitter truth. if you or your spouse's self esteem is so hurt because of the inability to work, fight for it and get H-4's the ability to work. Some thing like Lily ledbetter (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lilly_Ledbetter_Fair_Pay_Act) did. Previoulsy time under H4 was counted for h! as well. Many people worked on it and after years of such work time on H4 is not counted against 6 years of H1B. be the torch bearer, just dont throw out your frustration. Just blaming that it hurts my self esteem does not win brownie points.
You and Zen dont deserve reds. You guys are beyond red reds. So I will not give you a red so that your self esteem does not go down further.
Just because you work for the largest semi conductor company does not make you any better than any one else. People have different life styles and they will choose what ever they want to eat or what ever they want to save. Some idiots from where ever you are might have bought 3 homes, So Shall I call you a meaningless/unscrupulous spending idiot? No, I guess you are smart enough and havent bought 3 homes.
H!B != SLAVERY
SLAVERY, YOU ARE NOT FREE. YOU CANNOT DO ANYTHING UNLESS YOUR MASTER AGREES TO DO SO
H1B: YOU ARE FREE TO DO WHAT EVER YOU WANT.
Stop that comparison that feeds the anti immigrants. If you want to fight join, If you want to rant go find .

I feel sorry for the people who live in slums of dharavi but not for people who should not have been in the US in the first place (based on their education) and are now finding ways to get ahead of the legit EB2 candidates by buying masters degrees.
They are NOT buying MS, they are inquiring where the fees are cheaper. If this is buying MS, even you *bought* your Masters (and every other degree) unless you are from the 1% who get full scholarship (you would definitely have been in EB1 had you been in that layer).
