If I remember my Uncle's word correctly, it was Ted Kennedy who was instrumental in relaxing (changing) the rules for future immigrants in 60 or 70's. Only then, we saw a huge increase in immigrants from India especially doctor's and engineers in 60's & 70's.
Yes you are correct. Before 1965, there were immigration quotas based on the population mix of the existing US. Therefore western European countries like Germany, UK, Ireland etc
had higher immigration quota compared to say eastern Europe, Asia, Latin America etc.
So that 1965 in some way equalized the quotas. In order to the satisfy the "anti"s in those times they kept the 7% rule and hence the speech referred above by Ted Kennedy. So late 60s onwards people from India (including my Uncle) started coming to US.
In fact in the past there have been periods of very restricted immigration to US

By the way here is the case...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Wong_Kim_Ark
where the 14th amendment (birthright citizenship) for children of illegal alien parent was tested in US supreme court.
Therefore all these rules that you see tabled in congress to deny citizenship to some US born children are pure media publicity stunts.

Folks,
We need to understand that we have chosen a tough but worthy effort in the form of this forum. As such it may be depressing to see the slow movement in DC.
We should not be setting ourselves some timelines like the ones stated in this email thread, and then feel depressed about seeing no positive results within that timeline...there are too many factors outside our control to do anything like that...
I think we are better off than we where we were last year, when the awareness was nil, and that backlog legislation only favored the RNs and the PTs, while we saw ourselves powerless...
Lets help the core team..and not get depressed over short timelines...I see light at the end of our efforts...may not be phenomenal..but I am sure it will make a difference...for each of us...

His PD is July 2006. He would have gotten the 2 year EAD either way. EB2 India is June 01 2006.
Isn't there a rule that talks about folks getting their 2 year EAD only if they are two years (or some timeframe) away from their PD?

What impact does premium processing have on your application, if your file is stuck in Dallas BEC for over 3 1/2 years? Does this mean the application will be processed faster now?! Or is this only for new applicants?:(
-----
140 premium has nothing to do with BEC labor processing. Labor processing will not speed up because of this. THis is a very calcualted move by USCIS, they are trying to speed up processing of EB3 140, but it helps noone, not Indians, Chinese or even Rest of the world.
In fact this migh even hurt us a little more if they stop concurrent processing.

Yes they need proof of your being able to get back to USA. At my time, I didn't had EAD or AP in-hand.
You can use private company as mentioned below. As far as I know the company I contacted was based in DC and they said they only process for US citizens. So I had to do on my own thru Chicago consulate office of Germany.
All you need is proof that you shall get entry back in USA.
I got my German visa through www.visanetwork.com
They take some fee but would get Visa for you. They make sure all your papers are OK and would tell you what to do.

I have a question regarding where to file my EAD renewal application. I am a July filer NJ resident and my I-485/EAD/AP were sent to Nebraska and got the AP/EAD approved through Nebraska going by my LIN no. As per the (C)(9) rules it says NJ residents should file to Texas service center and somewhere else I read that my EAD renewal application should be sent to the location where my I-485 is getting processed.
Please share your experiences.
Thanks
I sent you a private message with my ph number.

Canada option though attractive has his own problems and I mean serious problems!. When you apply for stamping, consulate will first cancel your existing visa so if your H1B is denied you have to go to your home country from Canada!
I heard sometimes visa is not issued immediately due to admin processing or whatsoever.
In such cases, will they return the passport atleast so that one can travel to India till things get resolved.
And how do they let us know when to come back when things get ready.
Hyd consulate is asking so many many documents.

Where is the link of USCIS memo which talks about following
"There was a memo from USCIS for in-time receipt compliance for I-485 ( along with other forms) for 8/1 supposedly for June filers."
I have called CIS 2 times, they told me to wait until Aug 2nd week.

Hi!
My mom's a Gynecologist. She got her MBBS and MS from India in 1978. She has been working in India since then.
How can she start practicing in the United States? I have absolutely NO idea. I have heard about the USMLE Exam, but is it necessary for a person with 25+ years of experience? Will she have to do her medical-residency AGAIN?
Please advise.
OBGyn is generally 4 yr residency and knid of competitive these days. And yes u have to clear Step 1 and 2 definitly.
Had u been from middle eastern country, Hurley Medical Center in Flint would have been easy to go program. And if you are from certain part of India ( I'll give Satyam as hint ;)) , Synergy in Saginaw, MI would have been #1 choice.
No offense to anyone, so lets keep peace. :cool:

Dear IV members,
I am responsible for collating questions from members and sending them to our immigration attorney. Please follow the process outlined in the following thread:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1267
- At this time, we do NOT have enough questions to justify a conference call
- On the average, we require at least 20-25 "non-frivolous" questions to be able to justify our attorney's precious time (Please refer to the USCIS definition of the verbage "non-frivolous")
- We have had internal discussions on whether the frequency of the calls needs to be changed from bi-weekly(fortnightly) to monthly at this time.
Next Steps:
- Please keep sending in your questions to legal_advise@immigrationvoice.org
- Also see the thread http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/search.php?searchid=24014 wherein, periodic reminders have been posted requesting members to send in questions. Please keep them coming in so that we can have the next conf. call
FAQs: I hope the following provides some transparency into the process:
Q. What happens when a question is sent in?
A. First level filtered non-frivolous questions are responded to with a unique Question ID that helps track the question through its lifecycle until closure. The questions are then compiled and sent to the attorney, who accepts/rejects questions based on relevance. Based on the critical mass, the next conference call date is determined. Setting up a conference call requires mobilization of several resources- dial in number, availability of a moderator, etc. After the call, the recording needs to be made available, and several volunteers work towards making the transcript available in a MS Word/Adobe PDF form. Considering our other work and social commitments, this process takes around 2 weeks at this time.
Q. How many lawyers are there to answer the questions? Can we have couple of more lawyers on our panel so that we can do this more often?
A. Sure, but we need more questions coming in. We need a critical mass of non-frivolous questions to be sent in. We have, in the past, requested members to send in questions via the "legal_advise@immigrationvoice.org" route instead of posting them on the forums.
Q. Who are the people doing all this work?
A. Coremember "logiclife" has been doing the co-ordination in the past but has been indisposed due to health and work reasons for the next several weeks. I ("sertasheep") have taken over the co-ordination of the question-compilation etc., overseen by waldenpond, stucklabor, vineet among several other IV volunteers during logiclife's hiatus.
- (I don't want to reveal other names here without knowledge of their IV handles, will do so shortly after I get their IV handles and/or permission)
- Vineet and/or waldenpond have been helping with the last couple of conf. call moderations due to availability and calendar conflicts.
Thanks
sertasheep
(I've been down with shingles for the past few days, but that shouldn't stop me from collating the questions- so, keep 'em coming, and await announcement of the next conf. call!!)

USCIS sends out three copies of the approval notice Form I797 A: Sent to the attorney on record, Form I797 B sent to the Petitioner and Form I797C sent to the beneficiary. Check the lower right hand corner of the notice you received for the form number. The B and C versions are courtesy copies. That is why if you look at the "documents needed" section for stamping of H1B in any of the Consulates or VFS sites they typically mention "original Form I797A"
Hope this helps.
Thks for the Info..I am aware only I-797 has two parts..
