Besides, out unclaimed social security tax ends up financing the retirement of those very same anti-immigrants.
why dont they talk about the endless fees we pay, attorney, government?
at least we are providing the legal industry with plenty of jobs, if not for us 75% of their immigration attorneys would be out of business

Writing the cheques to individuals might be a bad idea, might get into income tax hassles.
If they can create a separte account, within the immigration voice realm.
I will do my bit

Yes she needs to be here to file I-485 and then she can leave and stay there..
Thanks for the reply, I am assuming she has the same requirements as me in terms of medical , right which means another 2 weeks after she arrives. If she can't make it here in July, can I file under CP for her. Would she then get her EAD at the same time as me. I have been trying to get in touch with my lawyer but he's not there, and I want to make sure I add her in before the dates get retrogressed again.

Lets move on and focus on this main topic...
Here are my observations.. Correct me if I am wrong..
1. L1 option for IT is essentially killed
2. Small IT companies will limit the headcount to 50 per company. It doesn't cost much to have more than one company. So no major changes to H1B Desi companies.
3. Most of the big American companies will not offer new H1B with 180 days, since most of them would have had layoffs.
4. Most IT companies will start spending a lot on lawyers. So they will be rich. There will be lot of audits.
5. Companies will complete PERM and I140 before getting a guy onsite, only if people are really interested in coming to USA any longer.
6. Need more clarity on where H1B outsourcing will be stopped...
Good recap. This bill is not about liberating employees. This bill is to kill H1Bs and L1s irrespective of whether the company is a consulting company or a direct employer.
Net result ? more outsourcing. Big outsourcing firms have enough experienced employees on their payroll to do outsourcing effectively.
If this bill passes, it will be a shameful day for USA.

I'm not anti immigrant. I'm on H1 (actually EAD with EB3 PD of Jan 2004).Almost got laid off with replacement by an L1 from TCS. Good for now for another 3 months!!
If you still think against me, i wish you get a situation where you might get laid off and replaced by an L1
I'm for reform for GC processing and I dont support the abuses because of L1s
No more discussions with idiots like you
I completely understand the situation. But believe me this bill not good for anyone but anti-immigrant. We need to fix the broken system and make sure the employee is not tied to the employer. It will take care of all the misuse and low wage. I hope you understand the point. Now they are coming for L1, then H1 and then for EAD...
United we stand and divided we fall.

Just curious. Why do you claim ROW is receiving preferential treatment over India when all the countries get the same upper limit of the visas. Now if the Indians ask for more visas just because there are more Indians asking for green cards, wouldn't that be preferential treatment? :)
Why do think that "India" is the name of 1 human being that everyone from India should be treat like 1 person. Each person applies for his/her I-485, even each member of a family is considered separate. So why club one group of people based on a dichotomy that works best in your favor and then argue that there should be no change. Why not apply color of skin to decide the limits, or maybe the language. Because frankly, which country I come from has nothing to do with why I am here, just as the color of my skin or my native language has no relevance to my petition. In any system if you club large group of applicants based on a dichotomy, and say you will get lesser share than the rest, isn't that how you describe preferential treatment ? Is there any other way to describe the current country-quota system? Why not say Tamil SriLankans will autonomously govern 86% of the land and rest of people in Sri Lanka should migrate to the remaining 14%. Is that how it works there? Probably not, then why argue for something which is actually nothing but preferential treatment. That's ok, in olden days, when racial discrimination was legal, people who benefited from it argued in favor of it, just as you are doing in favor of per-country limits. But the society is much better without racial discrimination. Don't you think so? Any special benefits accorded to one set of group over the other is preferential treatment. There is no other way to describe it. Now, if you got a job, which is why you are here, based on the fact that you are from Sri Lanka, then it is a different thing, then you must get green card based on which country you came from. But it would be illegal if actually you got got your job because you are from Sri-Lanka. Then why apply the benefit which is a direct derivative of your employment (and hence employment based green card) based on which country you came from? Is there any relation between your job and your country of origin? If yes, then it is illegal, if no, then why give benefit of your employment based on your country of origin, if no, and you continue to want the benefit of your employment based on your country of origin, wouldn't that be asking for preferential treatment? How else will you chose to describe it? Please help me to understand this.
And here is what I wrote earlier, which you did not want to read because you probably have not answer for this question to help your argument, so very conveniently you just had to skip it entirely. Here is goes ....
I thought we are all equals, unless you think you are challenged in anyways - physically or otherwise, in that case I agree, you are 100% right, there must be a special quota for you. For all others who consider themselves to be equal shareholders to the free society, isn't preferential treatment for any set of people "wrong" and "unfair"? Just asking? I mean are we not equals, if yes, then there should be no quota for any country, if no and you think you are superior, which maybe true, then I should get preferential treatment, if no, and you think you are inferior or otherwise challenged in anyways, well, in that case yes, you sure should be treat better than others.... you know....
So what do you think you are - equal? inferior? or superior? I mean it has go to be one of those, right?
Now if the Indians ask for more visas just because there are more Indians asking for green cards, wouldn't that be preferential treatment?
NO. That would not be preferential treatment. Because as I said, India is not 1 human being who ought to consume the same oxygen as 1 human being namely Sri Lanka must consume. Each applicant in employment based green card is a separate human being. Hope you are not proposing to ration oxygen based on country quota.
Look, I know removal of per-country quota may not work in your favor so you do not want to remove it. Tell me that it is not true and this discussion is over. And if per-country quota puts me at any dis-advantage as compared to you, isn't system giving you preferential treatment over me? How else will you describe it?

Called all of them today morning. Requested the house reps to co-sponsor the 3 bills. It will be more effective if more constituents (or even CA residents) call in, rather non-constituents like me calling in.
Some of the offices did mention that they received lots of calls regarding the support for the 3 bills. Good going folks..
CA folks pl step it up

Is it correct to say only nebraska Service center is issuing the rfe because they are pre adjudicating while Texas service center is not issuing rfe because they are not pre adjudicating 485. A vast majority of people getting rfe on 485 (95% or more) are from nebraska Service center.

I dont have problems with genuine L1s who wants to settle down and apply GC. But 90% of L1s, just come for 1-2 years, take away jobs to India, drive down wages and never interested in settling down
Don't you realize that this is the preferred policy of a large part of the US establishment? The anti-immigration activists are concerned about demographic change and are thus okay with jobs being sent abroad in exchange for limited permanent immigration.

Folks,
As a core member I thank you all for your support. IV needs your help with two things. First and foremost, our numbers need to grow. Right now we have about 6,000 members, but we all know there are far more people than that stuck in limbo due to backlogs in the legal immigration process.
Why do we need more numbers? Because when we go to talk to people on The Hill (and I live in DC and work here and I go as well), we have to convince them that we are a sizeable chunk of people in terms of our numerical strength that will vote when we become citizens. This is why we need to get working on this immediately. Talk to your family, friends and colleagues who are stuck in legal immigration backlogs, and get them to join IV. Each existing member should get at least one new member to join up. The more, the better.
Secondly, we need more members to become paying members. This is crucial, as all our work requires $$$. Saying "I'll pay when the work is done" does not help us. The work requires a steady cash flow, and while pledges are deeply appreciated, we can't operate merely on pledges. Many core members work very hard on raising money and on publicity.
So, I earnestly request your help in recruiting new members as well as strengthening our funding. Thank you!
Cheers!

I second what rheoretro has written............
As someone who has started working with the core group, I now fully understand the amount of work that goes into IV activities. At this time, IMHO, the best that all the other members can do is to contribute money to IV and spread the word about IV. Just getting your closest friends to sign up and CONTRIBUTE (if they are immigrants awaiting their Greencards), is the best thing all IV members can do for IV.

Where is your case? You should call and talk to an IO and find out. It will be good if the IO can put in a note in your case on which 140 needs to be used. After around 100 calls, I managed to talk to a very friendly IO, she put in a note and asked for my file to be pulled out of storage (I believe that is what happened in my case). I was on the phone for around 20 minutes with this IO and I couldnt believe how a IO could be so friendly and polite :) Have you treid CIS Ombudsman and USCIS Sec. Napolitano?
Caliguy,
I will reach out to ombudsman and Napolitano this weekend. Another thing i am going to try is applying AP renewal this weekend, set to expire in november anyway. I would rather loose $305 than keep waiting for some miracle. Thanks for your help. I should be able to find the procedure to file 7001 and the Napolitano address in this thread, correct?
