Do you guys think its worthwhile to go back instead of trying waiting for the retrogression to end. From the looks of it, i doubt there is any chance of an immigration bill before the elections. if there is no bill then we will end up waiting for 8-10 years for the dates to be current.
if they remove the US masters from the quota, imagine the rush it will cause in the universities, effectively it will imply that you will get a green card after you study for 2 years in US. take a 20-40k loan and get a GC. There is no country quota for F1. i had friends who were rejected for F1 because they were 'potential immigrants' wonder how this theme will play out in future.
from this shore returning back seems to be an alternative worth considering...or maybe its just todays depression talking.
Another perspective is that if people with Masters or higher degree are exempted from the EB quota, it will in fact help in moving the priority dates current, since there are lot of people in wait who already have advanced degree from US universities and won't be using up the visa from the EB quota.

I was wondering if IV core had some time to analyze this bill and summarize it for their members like the previous version of this bill. Would appreciate a quick summary of this bill with Pros/Cons in this bill for our community.

These amends that are imp to us were introduced on a day (last day before mem day recess) when senate was not planning to debate / vote on any amends to the CIR. That is why these were asked to lie on table.

Well one can avoid Air France if it 'makes you feel better'
The Crux of the matter is 'Indians discriminate Indians !!!!'. You see that everyday.....
1.Indian embassies in US...
2.Air India service is better for Goras and Goris than us...
3.Even in a website called IV and the list goes on and on.
Its been long forgotten that we were once the richest country in the world with a amazing history and cultural background.
Bottom line: Once a fellow Indian starts respecting another fellow Indian 'others will follow'.
Cheers!!!
By not standing up for your fellow indian and boycotting AF you are dis-respecting your fellow indian since you dont seem to care about the racist experience they had. So how are you different from "indians who discriminate indians" ? :confused: Just because we had a legacy of caste system doesnt mean you dont have to stand up for what is wrong. Your indifferent attitude/actions seems to contradict your own statements.

Please find out the visa numbers allotment for EB1, EB2 and EB3 till now. Till now there is about 100k visa numbers allotment for EB3 every year due to the vertical fallout. From now on there would be around 100K allotment in EB2 due to the change to Horizontal Fall out of visa numbers. Out of these 100k EB2 visa numbers, India will get greatest share of around 50k + visas. Please see the below.
Type and class of admission 1998-- 1999-- 2000-- 2001-- 2002-- 2003-- 2004-- 2005-- 2006-- 2007

First: Priority workers 21,375-- 14,844-- 27,566-- 41,672-- 34,168-- 14,453-- 31,291-- 64,731-- 36,960-- 26,697
Second: advanced degrees or exceptional ability 14,362--8,557-- 20,255-- 42,550-- 44,316-- 15,406-- 32,534 --42,597-- 21,911-- 44,162

Exactly what I was saying.
Until 2007, a large number of unused visa numbers were going to EB3-ROW. Now they will go to EB2 India/China due to the revised interpretation by DOS as posted by Gotcher sometime ago.

Hi.
My friend's wife is in a tricky situation. She has an approved EAD through her husband's I-485 petition.
She was working with company A on her own H-1 and decided to quit employer A and join new company B on EAD. At the very last minute company B has rescinded her job offer. She now cannot return to former employer A as well.
Is she in any status violation if she justs sits at home with an EAD but no job for a few weeks ?
Can anyone share their views ?
Thank You.

Just a hypothetical scenario.
Say an applicant is having PD of March 2005.
His/Her 485 gets approved with PD of Jan 2005. (may be a typo by CIS data entry person)
However at the time of approval, PD is current till June 2005. (he or she should have been approved anyway).
What would be the scenario? Thoughts? Any one????
In the scenario presented above, or where USCIS erroneously issued a GC when PD is not current, the obligation on the GC applicant's part is to report the error for appropriate resolution by USCIS. Even if the GC applicant (like my best friend who got his GC in 2008) is not aware of the detailed process, and is not tracking RD, PD, ND, the applicant still has an attorney who is representing the applicant. Also, filing the I-485, doesn't automatically guarantee the issuance of a GC (eg of withdrawing $100, expecting to get $100 but getting more than that amount - comparison is not apples to apples when talking about expecting GC after you file I-485).
In the end, when these situations occur it boils down to doing what is ethically and legally appropriate, within an appropriate response time frame.

Isnt this Ironic that Air France Flight went missing on coast of Brazil.
I think someone up in the sky has whipped at Air France.
Hope you meant it in humor. If not you need to go to therapy. Well, on second thought no one can even think about this in humor.

Guys, any idea on what happens to GC Process and H1 in case your employer is acquired by another company willing to do similar job.
My company sold my business unit to another company. I filed my 485 3 weeks ago. I'm on my 7th year H1 which is already extended to Nov 2008.
Both companies are willing to cooperate.
Help!

Are we/employees really supposed to know all the steps involved in the approval of GC process (Perm, 140/EAD/485 etc.)?
I work for one of the fortune 100 companies, to my surprise, none of my European colleagues is aware of all the GC process. All they do is just provide documents what ever the HR department asks for. They don�t pay from their pocket for GC (ideally correct). None of them has clue about priority date etc�.they get communicated by the HR department about their GC process.
So putting your case in perspective. I am assuming that the HR department would just hand over the GC to the employee. Neither the HR (I think) nor the employee (definitely) would worry about the PD being current.
Ideally if a law firm is point of contact for a petition, what would they do? Would they go back to USCIS and tell them that the GC is approved by mistake? I don�t think so but some one can confirm if they had experience otherwise.

Thing is they not always predictable. My spose EAD was approved in June. The aprroved the EAD starts after the current one ends in Oct. I dont know how they were trained to handle this.
And the worst thing is they approve it from the date tey approve it to 1 year after..My EAD which was expiring on 2th Sep'2008 was approved until Jun 20th 2009. Basically I got a 9 months extension...What a plan...

is UNLIKELY to pass at least in its current form. Public hospitals, underserved area clinics, Universities are not Google and Oracle!!! They'll go under if they have to pay 5000 $ for H1Bs. People probably don't have the faintest idea under what kind of financial strain these are. There will be exemptions for universities and non-profit organizations.
Just so that you know, Medical education is taken out of the eligibility criteria for H-1B visa with this new bill. They will have to go through J-1 strictly.
