Also on another note Senator Lieberman wrote a piece in investors.com which is pro-skilled worker and pro-H1B.
http://www.investors.com/editorial/editorialcontent.asp?secid=1502&status=article&id=264986175666607
In it he says "When the Senate resumes debating comprehensive immigration reform this week, I will fight to exempt from the cap foreign nationals holding a U.S. graduate degree in any field; a non-U.S. graduate degree in science, technology, engineering or math; or medical-specialty certification based on U.S. training. Taken together, these reforms would deliver much-needed relief � and vital human capital � to our innovative industries." .
This is a good find. I'm happy that the senators are fighting to remove the cap for masters students. That would make lot of room for the non-ms students.

"Less number of attendees" had a big impact in our minds and it sidelined one of the positive outcome of the meeting and that is outcome of Q&A with the Guest.
Guest answered many questions personal - EB based immigration and other immigration but in my opinion we could get very precise answers on following questions raised by attendees in more clear manner without leaving any doubts and ifs and buts.
Q:1 What need to be done if one has different "A" numbers on I-140 and 485?
Q:2 Age old confusion - Using AC21 after 180 days - How to use it.
AND WE ALL COULD GET VERY PRECISE ANSWERS IN A VERY PROFESSIONAL MANNER FROM A WONDERFUL GUEST(Attorney) AND THAT WITHOUT PAYING HOURLY FEE.

Just a question, why is everyone so happy that the CIR has Failed and more importantly why does everyone on here feel that if CIR is resurrected it will "haunt" us?
If CIR fails to go into "production" this year, is it not true that we have ZERO reform? I mean would it not be better to ride this wave and try and sneak our provisions into the mix rather than SIMPLY feeling happy that CIR is "dead"?
At this point (even after the PD movement), About 70% of us are still in the retrogression mess and will continue to be in that mess till SOME immigration reform passes. So the question then is: Should we not be trying and praying that CIR passes WITH our provisions (and i know how hard the core team is working and hence i am asking this question). I mean the core team has given an infinite amount of time and energy to this project. Would it not be easier to see a bill finally pass and try and get our provisions in this bill rather than killing this bill?
It is good that it got killed. The current state of the bill was not CIR, it is CIIR. Comprehensive illegal immigaration reform. It was not going tp do any help to legal immigrants but hardships.

Could you please translate this into layman's English? What you appear to be saying is that speed (CIS efficiency) is more important than number (quotas), but your expample confirms that cases are stuck because of number unavailability (quotas), not because of CIS inefficiency. You got your own green card in three months, did not you? That tells me that CIS darn well capable of processing applications in a timely manner.
Like I said, its a combination of the 2 main things, the efficiency of processing and the quota limits. Changing either 1 without the other other probably won't get us far.
Yes, USCIS IS capable of processing quickly (for example, my own case - but I'd say I was very VERY lucky, rather than an indication of system wide improvements). Remember, my GC was approved whilst my PD was not current, and I am still baffled why this happened. Having talked to many people about it, there is a strong suspicion of "squeaky wheel" helping.
What I was trying to say was - the perceived improvement in speed in the last quota 1/4 of this year (May- Sept) was NOT because USCIS suddenly streamlined and improved their processing speed. It was because there was a backlog of approved applications just waiting for PDs to move so that visa numbers can be assigned.

Simple and yet we have not acted purposefully. I have a strong feeling that this visa grab is still going on. HLG has sent out another immigration alert to all registered emails, similar to one posted on Feb 9, 2007. . And I quote a bit
Stopping this 'unused visa grab' for only one section of retrogressed and demanding it for all retrogressed is a sure WIN for us, if it happens; if it is stopped, it will make a tectonic shift the focus to the whole gamut of issues of retrogression, backlogs etc and will put more pressure on Congress to act.
I have seen and read all the posts in this thread started by me. I appreciate all points and posts, particularly by core team.
The least we can do is write and fax to Congress and demand. The IV team should set up a fax, so that each of us here can protest these moves by Congress without considering other severely backlogged applications. For this I propose a simple message.
Next one/two days are crucial. Let's make a difference.
Note:
1) In the above, I am trying to be focused, addressing one issue at a time. Backlogs, Slowness, Finger Prints are also other genuine issues. Let us stop the greedy stealing by HLG and their ilk.
2) If for whatever reason IV will not come up with a web fax, a few of us must act individually and let the congressmen and senators know of our protest. I had faxed to a few Congressmen and Senators, from the fax machine at my workplace. Believe me, these types of protests have worked in the past.
nurses are needed in hospitals. ever been to one in the US? there is a big shortage of nurses. opposing numbers for nurses is unethical, because lives are saved in hospitals, and will show us in poor light.

The reason H4's are ignored, is that 90% of them are woman. Most H1b Contractors come from third world countries. And most men would like to see their wives as housewives only. Also woman are less aware of socio-political issues. When they understand, they can't work on H4 visa, they just accept it as their fate. they never ask for more .
Unless the women on H4 starts to speak up and spread the awareness of H4 issues, getting work permit for H4 will always remain a dream. even though few woman activists are trying to lobby for it. We have educate the Congressmen that Woman on H4 needs to have Work authorization. It is not a privilege. It should be a right. I think ImmigrationVoice should put H4 Work Authorization in their agenda.

Good Idea, Jayram.
Having even a couple of fill time staffers will make a big difference...but will also require bigger budget.
Does any one know how much IV collets in recurring contributions? How much did we collect for the DC rally and how much did we spend?
San Jose was a local CA event planned almost spontaneously. DC was an event planned months in advance. People were offered Free ride, Free plane fare, Free food (in Gurdwaras). Yet how many participated?
I have been refraining from posting on this point, as I wouldn't like to belittle the contributions of the strong team from California and the numbers they brought to the rally.
But let's face it. CA has more EB immigrants than the next three. Look at the recent 2006 Performance report from DoL (available at Mathew Oh website). CA had 21,000+ labor petitions compared to NY - 7,000, NJ - 7,000(?) , TX - 5000. As you can see CA scores more than the next three states put together.
If 40 people participate from NY, it's as good as 120 from Cal. Percentagewise it would be the same. If 40 peope walk in Michigan ( 2000 Labor petitions) statistically it would surpass CA, percentagewise.
It's a known thing that only 5%-10% of the population participates actively in the most successful movements be it American Revolution or struggle for Indian Independence. We haven't reached that critical mass yet ( at the regional level)
There is an enthusiasm right now. But how long before the fatigue sets in? Rallies need to be minimal, held with certain strategic target and should serve some specific purpose.
Weekend rallies attracting bigger crowds is a myth. Be prepared to listen to reasons like - Shucks I have to mow the lawn, take kids to Bharatanatyam dance classes, I have relatives over for lunch etc.
With that logic if we hold rallies over the LONG weekends, we should attract bigger crowd, since people have 2-3 days to relax afterwards. And since people already plan to visit Orlando, LA etc to visit Disneyland, Universal etc., if we can hold rallies there we should attract the highest possible crowd. Do you think my idea will work?
I agree with you 100%. Question is - who'll bell the cat? Who will take the lead and sacrifice their time, family life etc. to plan, organize and conduct these?
We need a fearless leader like Aman Kapoor, who can motivate and inspire people to participate, in every state. Where can we find them?
How about taking this to the next step and hire paid fulltime staff who can
1) call people and request donations
2) organize meetings
3) stimulate the local chapters
4) promote IV
..... and the list can go on.....and do all the things necessary to convert all propects to customers.
How about having full time offices in DC? This office will run on donations.
Finally, how about instead of anonymous members make this a place where everyone has to provide their personal details etc.
Anyways, I am just ranting.

Guys,
I have pretty much the same story and am in pretty much the same situation due to PBEC and now retrogression.
I don't think returning back as a knee jerk reaction is a good idea. If you have already been here 8-9 years obviously you have been stuck in a programming job for the last 10+ years. You can't take programming experience back to home country and ask for management position. You will get no programming position because you are over qualified and no management position because you don't have the experience.
However horrible it sounds, its best to stick it out. I am personally ready to stick it out for at least 1.5 years. After that I will be forced to make a decision otherwise I will lose my canadian PR also.
Let's talk about three things:
1. Make efforts to get GC.
2. Plan for your future: Enhance your education, apply for PR in another developed country.
3. Make your present better: Enjoy everyday, don't worry about GC.
I was thinking about PMI, CISA and MBA right from the time I landed in US in 1999. Then I realized that I need to get an GC to make use of those. Then I started to look for a stable company where I can start my GC process. It took three years toll till then. I joined a good ameican company as a perm employee. They did not file my GC as they promised and I had to quit to join another company for the heck of my GC and for my (my wife with CPA / CA is on H4 for 5th year now) dream career. I had to go many step back in technology with the new company but I sucessfully managed to file my GC.
Then what? When I finished studying my PMI, all the retrogression story started. Then I had to ask questions my self.
1. With PMI certification in 2004, if I am doing a Sr. Software engineer, will it not raise questions down the line in my career interviews. May be yes or no, but I do not have answers.
2. With PMI Cert in 2004, if I can get my GC in 2005, I am pretty sure I could manage any questions throws at me, but not in 2008 or 2010. So I dropped the idea on PMI / CISA/ GMAT until I have 50% certanity of when I will be getting my GC in hand.
3. The worst will be starting an MBA with good univeristy and competing it in next two years with zero hope of getting GC then. What would you do if you are not even closer to file your 485 when you have MBA degree in hand. You will have career in your home country with this MBA for sure, but who will pay your debts here. It is like shooting yourself on your foot with golden gun. Atleast you will be satsifed it is golden gun, but the end result is hurting yourselves.
4. So what is the option? Never give up. There are always difficult times for everyone. What we are facing is nothing. There are people who are graduating at the age of 70 in US. I have seen a lady at the age of 70 graduating with MAB from Harvard. I thought she did it for fun, but in an interview she said she wants to pursue her career in marketing field. This is an eye opener for me. So prepare yourself with TOEFL and GMAT. These scores are valid for 5 years. Join from volunteer organizations and develop your leadership skills. Reco letters from these orgs will have great impact when you apply for MBA infuture. Most of all it is right way to live a peaceful life atleast if you do not go the MBA route, you will develop the skills needed for your life.

oh ya, so you have a problem with donor status? Why don't you start with your cable company and ask them why do they charge you any money? Why don't you ask the gas station, that why do they charge you for the gas? Why don't you argue with the cashier at Walmart about the bill you have to pay if you want something? Its easy to be dismissive of others. Its even easier to fault others and argue that just because no one shared the information, so I have license to throw stones at others. But being an Eb2 highly skilled humanity savior personality that you are, why do you need a 3rd class Eb3 programmer to show you that it cost money to get things done. Why can't you see that in last 8 months this nation was going under a presidential election and nothing got done on any issue, other than bailouts and budget? Why can't you see that nothing has happened in the Congress on immigration for any other group? Why can't an highly skilled highly educated chanakya of this planet not see that it is ok for everyone to praise some immigration lawyers who are known to deliberately delay green card application, but its not ok to ridicule someone sincerely working to fix my issue? Why is it ok for me to track my application all day and not complain even once when some tracker website is asking for money to have my question from a lawyer, but will not leave any stone unturned to put the "burden of proof" of innocence on someone sincerely working to stand-up for me because I am too coward to stand-up for myself?
Let me help you understand it because it will be too much for your eb2 species brain to understand. Simple answer - You cannot see past the things that you cannot understand. Just go and ask Walmart cashier as to why he/she is charging you money for the things you want? Maybe that will help.
.
reading above posts it reminds me what I read :
Lot of junk sold in US...
People have gotten used to buying things that have no value. Wherever donation boxes are putup or beggers stand , people put money. Come on one does not need to pay because a other guy is asking.
So its upto the individuals to donate. Personally I dont feel one can do much to accelerate the GC process. If you read the history you can comeup with a list of things that changed the way things got done in US!!
Have a good one guys.

Get copies of your 140 approval and labor filing papers. Look for a job and transfer h1b , you will get 3 years transfer/extension based on yiour approved 140.
Once you settle down in your new job, apply for new Labor in PERM (preferably EB2) , and you can port your earlier priority date.

Look, i sympathize with you but you SHOULD HAVE poured in some money to start a parallel PERM application ..... PERM started from APR 2005 - you got almost 2 years +
My case is also like you but my Labor was 2 years old and applied just
before PERM and it went straightway to Phily Backlog center ... I thought
of applying for a Parallel PERM but mine was a RIR ( quicker) and Phily was saying that they would clear all Backog by SEP 2007 ( another 2 months)
Did you check your status in Backlog tracker ??
http://pds.pbls.doleta.gov/
Sometimes it does not depend on you, I am in Backlog due to my company's lawyer does not want to file for PERM :mad: . Anyway I am changing jobs and starting again but this time with PERM. :D

Chandu, you made me laugh (in a fun way, not in the making fun of you way). Hiding is done inside the closet, not behind it. Maybe lack of clothes is explainable because one is "behind" the closet :)
On a serious note though, You provided so many ways that money is being raised by running marathons, funding drives etc etc...but come on, where on this website or anywhere else is it mentioned how this money is being spent??
I have absolutely no right to ask that question because i have never contributed money. But when i am told that I dont have access to this thread or that thread because I am not a donor...I do have the right to question if this organization actually represents all immigrants or just the donors?? If the motto of IV becomes "Change for fairness and justice (For Donors Only)" then it would make a lot more sense to me. But as long as IV keeps on harping that they represent the plight of legal immigrants (which I am) then I do have the right to ask the question ..."What exactly has IV done?"
Asking the question is never the problem, it may make people uncomfortable but I want people (like yourself) who are contributing to at least ask IV before ranting on people like me (who dont contribute) to support the cause...Supporting the cause is NOT equal to giving IV money. The republicans already tried something similar ..."If you are anti-war, you dont support the troops"..That was fallacious and so are all the personal attacks on the "freeloaders" (like myself ofcourse).
