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.

Welcome to IV!
I just called and was asked for names and comments. I told her my personal experience: came 10 years ago, worked 5 years, approved I-140 2 years ago, stuck in the queue, working as a scientist at Stanford University, and can not apply fund and have difficulty attending international conference. She asked the state I am from. I strongly urge TX members to call. It is very easy.

he has said something similar before during the debates but there is no clear plan from any of the candidates. given the heat this issue is generating (and lack of publics understanding); i doubt any of the candidate will be vocal about it.

you never worked for X and has been working w/o break with #2 ... u said, I believe.
Write to USCIS simple explanation and show a proof such as HR letter stating your presence on active payroll continusly for all the term and run it through attorney, if you have. Else put together logically framed chronologically ordered history. Attach W2's for the years and demonstrate un-broken timeline.
If their is nothing to hid or falsify, ... don't worry about anything. Good news is your case is active. People here ( no offense to anyone) will split hairs trying to answer simple issue. Keep it simple and truthfull and nothing adverse will happen.
Yes. Your assumption
"you never worked for X and has been working w/o break with #2 ... u said, I believe"
is correct.
Only thing that I want to point out is - Employer X sponsored my H1B (i do not know it is new H1 or transferred), but never moved from current Employer. Maintained valid status with current employer.
When it comes to immigration stuff, I would not do any 'wrong doing' intentionally, not even as a last option.
Not sure if I crossed the line here (obviously unknowingly) by having H1B with 'employer x' , but I was told it's all legal.
Thanks for your input.

everybody is quoting SFGate article can you prove the same , these ideas are addressed in article even kennedy says "Oh this bill will bring many issues of legals in to light " but not in numbers in CIR bill , if one reads the article he will think heaven is going to fall in CIR bill but reality is Its not heaven its hell as you the actual CIR.
Only time has to decide this week will decide whether indeed CIR resurrects ( chances are more than 80% if so current EB issue be addressed ?) lets see.

Yes, we need more help from the media. That is why we have the media event - press conference on Tuesday June 8th. We need members to be there to show a good representation of EB-Community. Apart from that we need to send these emails/letters to media and the reps in 1000's everyday, so that we get the attention we deserve. Thank you everybody that is participating and sending emails every day. We can also print out and send letters.

I just got off the phone with some lawyers on this. It looks like a strong case so far. They will be discussing it with their director and possibly getting some other law firms or organizations involved. That is all I can say for now. I will update you when I know more.
Good work Totoro. Keep it up. My interview got to a large number of newspapers.

My wife is currently with Employer A on her 7th year H-1B which is valid till Sep 2009. She also has her approved labor cert and I-140 from this employer, but decided to continue on my I-485 application. The I-140 however is still valid.
She now wants to change jobs to Employer B using H1 visa transfer. I am guessing she will need to include a copy of approved I-140 with her H1B transfer application. But Employer A is not providing us a copy of the I-140 approval.
Can someone please advise what we can do in this situation? Is a copy of I-140 critical in this situation? Or just a copy of online approved status will be sufficient? Any other ideas?
Thanks!!!

I am not blaming the Core at all, they are doing whateven they can given the limited resources, time and influence they have. But, what I am blaming, is the the "holier than thou" attitude which is adopted when distinguishing between those that are the exalted DONORS and those that aren't :)
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.

sorry for mentioning renewal, disregard that word.
Yes, go ahead and fill out the same form(regardless of the previous AP status), be sure to get the latest form from uscis site.
Thanks for the reply and the blog!
Regarding your answer for question 3 - when you say "renewal" what does it mean? There is just one application form for I-131, so should I simply fill out the same form regardless of whether the previous AP is current or expired?

What about cases in 2004? not many?
A: (1) Remember 2003 start to 2004-mid were the years even just joined
paralegal was forcing you to apply under EB3 and that is in non rir and
that phenomenon was across board from east coast to west. So many
highly skilled people were also in EB3 queue. Many of them have
switched back to EB2 during PERM start era. But this is the period
where "tons" of EB3 were created and hence considerable files are still
in wait mode.
And, the movement (to 2005) would happen only during last quarter of the FY when numbers overflow from other categories? Or under normal movement?
A: In my opinion it will move average 2-3 months ahead every month till Sept
08 and Oct 08 should jump it beyound 2004 and by end of Dec 2008 it
should be at 2004- mid "At least".

This is what Ron Gotcher had to say about this wonderful organization:
Quote" Not even Congress has been able to rein in the INS/CIS. Repeatedly, they have passed legislation ordering the agency to produce reports on their backlogs - all of which have been ignored with impunity."
So, I think this is just another tactic to discourage people from getting the information thru FIA by charging some imaginary figure of $5k to get some basic information. This is the heights of Arrogance.
INS/CIS has become a rogue entity like Pakistan's ISI. No govt can rein it. :-)
I don't see any harm in coughing up 5k for the information which would help us all.
Count me in for the contribution.

What was said at on BusinessWeek was just the old story again;just one side of the story. The truth is that you are setting yourself for disappointment if you expect this to turn into reality. Just relax, contribute to IV and save the rest of your money. Keep your expectations low, folks and we will get there.
Based on last week's BusinessWeek article, I have a feeling that we will see an effort to restrict initial H1B applications in some way. That would be a good opportunity to push for allowing naturalization applications for people who have been on work visas for a long time (say 8-10 yrs?). Fighting for citizenship would have a stronger emotional dimension and may connect better with the American public. A direct filing for citizenship will work around retrogression by providing an avenue for people to move out of the GC queue.

Though your feelings are ok, the reality is different.
1. yes there are lot of capbale people through out the world earning less than what an average person earns in US. Why any country should provide visas to them if the country does not gain anything from it. Better to know the supply Vs demand concept.
2. Being a very capable person, you choose to be on H4. US did not force it on you. Everyone has the option of going back to their home country or wait here till they get what they desire. You weigh both the options and decide which suits you better. If you decide to stay on H4 for 4-5 years, then at somepoint for some reason you thought it is better than going back. So be practical.
As someone said, one should feel deserved to get GC and not beg for it. Again I am sorry for your status. My wife with CA and CPA and she is on H4 for 5 years now. I know how frustrating it will be. Worrying will not help much. Accept the reality and think calmly which way you want to go in your life down the line in next 5 years. Take actions now for that which may end up in leaving this counrty or staying with current status until you get GC. You have to make up your mind to live a peaceful life.
This GC process will throw anyone into depression.
Good luck.
