    funny thing, this SunnySurya guy happens to be from a small consulting company with 8 people out of which everyone got audited and at one point he says he does not know if his application is Eb3 or Eb2 and he is trying to figure it out.

    Then he comes with filing a lawsuit against porting from EB3 to EB2

    Funny guy, once you get your hand in the cookie jar you want no one near it eh?

    What are you really afraid of?

    I will help you in this but do us all a favor and don't reply to any more messages....

    F4 visa in CIR is the only clause that has self-petition for legal immigrants - again not sure if it is effective retrospectively. Speaking of travesties, what we are going through is already a big one. Frankly, we will be lucky to get any relief at all, let alone hard-to-pass clauses like self-petitioning. From what we saw during CIR, even die-hard pro-immigrant senators like Ted Kennedy aren't too keen on self-petitioning for legals.

    You are right CIR does contain provisions that allow workers to self petition.
    And yes, SKIL does not allow us to self petition, it is a travesty.

    I landed in Jan08 thru Windsor border in Michigan. I drove in my car to CA. You'll go to the immigration officer who'll check your landing docs, and then ask you to sign the landing document. Then show them the proof of funds. I had a cashier's check for the amount. Then you'll be asked for an address in CA. If asked tell them you are planning to settle at the address. If you say you are returning to US, they'll not give you the PR card saying when you come to live in CA they'll issue it. I made that mistake. They stamp your passport with the entry stamp. Without a PR card you can't enter CA at an airport. Your only option is driving to CA thru a land border. They'll let you in with just the stamp on the PP. Fortunately I live close to Windsor border.
    As someone pointed out, you'll then go to customs, where they'll check the goods you are bringing or plan to bring later. There are 2 different forms for 'bringing goods with you' and 'goods to follow'. Make sure you fill in all the item in your home on the 'goods to follow' with some details like model number, etc. If you are not planning to live to CA, don't fill anything on the 'bringing goods form.

    Dudes & Dudettes,

    Hasnt the issue of processing order been beaten to death?

    I understand the momentum here....not trying to rain on a parade or anything...but shouldnt we be a little practical. How long is litigation going to take? Wont only naive lawyers even take this up?

    USCIS can always pull the security reason trump card here.

    moreover, during the last quarter...in the effort to not waste visas, low hanging easy to approve cases with later priority dates have gotten approved. wudnt u rather have that than visas going waste?

    We have been patient for a very long time....lets see how the dates move in the 1st 2 quarters of fiscal 09.

    My personal suggestion....stop worrying aout GC...there are much bigger things in life to worry about. :)


    What do we have to lose here by this effort:
    1) $100 or so
    2) A few hrs of effort in mobilising and motivating people

    What do we have to gain:
    1) A sense of unity if we can get anywhere close to 1000 supporters
    2) A chance to win against years of injustice and broken system.

    Comparing both...I'm definitely in.

    Also, we will leave it to the Lawyers to make the case..we all know it is a broken system and loopholes in it definitely will form a case. However, all that are talks up in the air if we cannot have 1000 people support this. First and foremost, we have to create a sound force. Only then we can talk about a future step. With a thousand pledged supporters and 100 grand behind us, we should not underestimate the force.

    Hey guys

    My PR card in Canada was not issued; they rejected the photos I submitted with the original application. Now they're asking I submit new ones in PERSON!

    I will need to get a Canadian Travel document now to re-enter Canada now. Does anyone know how long it takes to get that issued?

    Plus, Since I'm using AP as well the whole re-entering the US with the Canadian Visas in my passport is once again an issue. I'm considering giving up on the PR card, since I've technically already completed my landing; I can re-apply for the PR card if and when I decide to move to Canada permanently. Can you guys advise?

    -thanks.

    asdcrajnet, very sorry to hear but good luck with your new efforts and live peacefully!!!

    Finally we have decided to go back to India for good. I filed my EB3 in May 2003. Its going to be another 4 years to get the green card. When I went to India for vacation last December, we liked it over there & the economy is booming. There are all sorts of discussion regarding the Economic Gap/Politics/Corruption/Cleanliness. But we like it over there. Finally I will have an option to do something interesting. In US I was very much dependent on my monthly pay check and afraid to take even the slightest risk. I am also scared to use the AC21(Hey, thats the way I am). I am working with the same company for last 10 years, kinda stagnant in the last 4 years. In India, there are lots of choices, either to work for a sw company or start some business on my own. I think I will take the business route.

    May be I can go there, earn well, send my son to US for college, do green card through him & come retire in US!!!

    Good Luck to everybody!!

    Normally the employer will thread like this. But they wont do anything because if they sue you, they have to spend lot of money then what you have to pay them. Just reply like this.

    1. I am ready to face the law suit, I got my attorny and ready to take legal action and I know how to deal with you.
    2. I give you this many XX days. Pay me or I am going to refer this case to DOL and DHS.
    3. Definitely they will not do anything. Once you refer them to DOL and DHS they are screwed. DHS security will investigate this and if there is any violation of law, this employer can not do any H1 for any one and all their GC process would be in limbo.

    Simply they can not afford to take legal action or face DHS. If I were you I would do whatever it takes to recover my money. I wont let them go without hard time.

    Be bold and do this.

    I think you will OK. Please wait couple of more days. :) TSC is slow in receipting...

    My application was mailed on June 25th to TSC and picked up by TSC IO on June 28th . The new weekly processing update states processing/receipting completed till june 28th. But they still haven't cashed my check or issued any receipt ? When I called the 800 number to ask them regarding my application they first told me to wait for 15 days ,then 45 days and now 90 days. Whats the point of issuing weekly update if USCIS itself is not following it,it is creating more anxiety then doing any good.

    I am wondering what if they misplaced/lost my application, will they accept resubmitting a new I485 petition after Aug17th based on Fedex signature conformation receipt signed by an IO, of previously filed petition??:confused:

    yes lets put the burning act aside. Also it should be clear in the rallies that it is LEGAL immigration that we are talking. I still see some comments on the news stories. "All Illegals should be sent away"
    My point is that any time we talk about immigration, common people think illegal as thats the only side they are exposed to.

    Nah, we have better things to do than burn something.
    Also, we don't want to add to the already hot weather in California and to global warming at large. We need cool ideas not hot headed remarks. :)

    @desi3933:

    1. From tax standpoint, W2 means the company (could be fully/partly owned by you) is paying tax-at-source. On 1099, *you* do the taxes and hence the hourly rate on 1099 is typically more than that on W2. Yes, you can be an owner of a corporation and file taxes as as a C-Corp or an S-Corp on W2, but not as a "Self-employed."

    2. Yes, I-140 is for "permanent" (definition needed) and FT job, since the sponsoring company has always an "intent" to hire the petitioner in the future. *But* AC21 provision helps you to change employers after 180 days of filing I-485, if your I-140 is approved. The new job has to be "same or similar" to the occupation your I-140 petition was filed for. The "permanent" intent of the original employer disappears under AC21 because you changed employers (or your original employer withdrew I-140, even though he had genuine "intent" at the time of I-140 filing to hire you in the future). I agree that "any memo (including Yates memo) supplements the existing federal regulations," but the Yates memo gives you the AC21 provision, which was a law signed by Pres. Bush.

    3. It is wrong to *infer* that "AC-21 job must be of same type as I-140/labor job, hence must be permanent and full time." As I say in 2. above, the employer who filed your I-140 should have intent, *at I-140 filing time*, to hire you in the future. And that intent is not needed after 180 days of filing I-485 *and* approved I-140, regardless of whether your original employer continues or withdraws your I-140 petition.

    4. You're wrong in your example of "A job with 6 year contract is a temporary job." I've often seen the "6-month contracts" getting extended to 1, 2, 3 years or indefinitely. Similarly, a "permanent" job may last a few months (e.g., because of a recession).

    5. It is true that "all H-1B jobs are temporary in nature and called guest workers," but H-1B (compared with, say TN-1) is a dual intent visa. Once you file I-140, your intent (whether on H1 or EAD) becomes not that of a temporary visitor but as the one seeking a permanent stay in this country.

    6. Again, it's wrong to assume that "most of full time exempt jobs in this country are permanent in nature." And even if they were permanent, in what sense?

    I think we're running into into two issues here. The first one is related to semantics--i.e., what constitutes a "permanent" job? The second one is the *inference/assumption* that, because because I-140 requires you to be on a permanent, FT job (=sponsoring employer has "intent" to hire you in the future), your employment under AC21 provision should be "permanent".

    1. You can be self employed on c-corp as well. Please go to bank of your choice and you will get the answer. I do have business accounts and speaking from my own experience.

    2. Here is one RFE issued by USCIS. This should answer that AC-21 job must be permanent and match your labor/I-140

    If you will no longer be employed by the original Form I-140 petitioner, you may still be eligible to adjust your status under the visa portability provisions of section 106� of the American Competitiveness in the Twenty-First Century Act (AC21), Public Law 106-313. This legislation permits certain adjustment applications to change employers without filing a new immigrant visa petition, provided they are:

    The beneficiary of an immigrant petition approved under section 204(a)(1)(F) of the Act (previously 204(a)(1)(D)), AND The application for adjustment has been pending for more than 180 days, AND the new permanent position is in the same or similar occupational classification as the original employment.

    If you now claim such eligibility, submit a letter from your new employer, describing your present job duties and position in the organization, your proffered position (if different from your current one), the date you began employment and the offered salary or wage. This letter must be in the original and signed by an executive or officer of the organization who is authorized to make or confirm an offer of permanent employment. The letter should also indicate whether the terms and conditions of your employment-based visa petition (or labor certification) continue to exist.

    3. See point 2.

    4. Contract extension does not mean job is permanent. And, yes, 6 year contract job is temporary in nature. Permanent job can not have end date. Period.

    5. Dual intent visa means that it can be issued even if I-140 or I-130 has been filed on your behalf. Nothing more than that. GC job is independent of H-1B job.

    6. Again, Permanent job is a job that is expected to last unknown term and is not defined for a period. H-1B job is not permanent since they have end date specified by LCA and H-1B visa petition.

    7. Here is a case for I-140 that was denied, since offered I-140 job was not permanent full-time job. Read for yourself
    Link to case (http://www.uscis.gov/err/B6%20-%20Skilled%20Workers,%20Professionals,%20and%20Oth er%20Workers/Decisions_Issued_in_2009/Jan022009_06B6203.pdf)

    Lets file a lawsuit to get the info in a manner we need:


    1) breakdown of processing dates in a manner that co relates to visa bulletin.
    i.e.: tell us how many petitions by per country are pending/processed and processing dates by country and category. Atleast USCIS is answerable to visa bulletin.

    2) Visa usage by category reporting each month
    (How many petitions were approved are pending by visa category and by country) (here I mean just I140 and I485). Adjust the numbers if there are denials.

    This will atleast help everyone predict whats going to happen in recent months. One of the heartburns we have is no information comes out of USCIS and we are held hostage to what oppenheim says or Aytes says or Sheela Murthy says. This is public information so lets try and get it public every month.

    On the topic of �getting some of our measures during lame-duck session�, I am seeing some speculation (on other sites) that there is a chance these measures getting discussed during that session. I know these are just educated guesses, but it�s encouraging. see following:
    ================
    From another thread on this site got this link, about Yale/Ivy League grads not getting H1B�s. There is quote from someone who thinks some immigration measures may be approved in Lame-duck session.
    http://www.yaledailynews.com/Article...rticleID=33577
    The House bill, the Senate bill, or some compromise may be approved during Congress' lame-duck session after the general elections in November, Yale-Loehr said.

    =======================
    This is from a leading corporate immigration law firm�s web page. They provide headlines and commentary on new regulations. There is some speculation about immigration measures getting discussed during lame-duck session:

    The Road From Here:
    On a broader scope, key House and Senate members maintain their position that Congress will examine comprehensive immigration reform in the period after the November election and before the start of the next Congress in January 2007, known as the "lame-duck" session. However, many of those involved in the debate over immigration reform question the ability of negotiators to reach an agreement, given the wide ideological gap between the House and Senate with respect to treatment of America's undocumented population.
    ====================

    your comments / speculation / educated guess.......??...

    AFAIK all 485 filings have to be sent to NSC. Also, does one need to attach the original I-140 approval with I-485 or a copy of it will suffice?

    Yes - all I485 apps got to Nebraska http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=3faf2c1a6855d010VgnVCM10000048f3d6a1RCR D
    Employment-Based Applications

    If you are filing for lawful permanent resident status based on an offer of permanent employment in the United States, you should
    submit your I-485 to:

    USCIS Nebraska Service Center
    P.O. Box 87485
    Lincoln, NE 68501-7485

    This includes an employment-based I-485 if you are filing a Form I-140, Petition for Alien Worker, concurrently with
    your I-485, or an I-485 filing basedon a pending or an approved Form I-140.

    Please do share your experience after the InfoPass. I will follow accordingly.

    To better be on safe side to get it stamped on my passport. I took info pass on 8-11-08 it will be almost 30 days
    I think it is 9-11-08...am I right?

    They say you will become actual permanent resident when you get the card The card is important.
    As replied by Desi3933, it is incorrect to my knowledge. Approval notice it self is a proof that you are a Permanent Resident. The stamp in the passport works for us till we get the physical card. I think you will get it on 9/11/08 9Infopass appointment date).

    Hi hiUS

    Thanks for noticing I have corrected my info pass date.

    did you took info pass appointment.
