Should there not be a separate Green card quota for anyone with a USA Masters Degree in any field?
If USA does that, more people will pay to come to study in USA. Not go to Australia, UK etc to study. So more money to USA. And USA degree holders will be able to use this education and work in USA to improve USA economy. If they go back to their countries, then USA has brain drain.
If they have separate quota for H1, separate H1B quota for Masters Degrees, what is wrong to have one for Green Card?
Please support on this thread if you agree.
My support for those with PhD but not for MS at this point.

How about the reverse change of status ? A person currently on H1 visa decides to resign from company & wishes to go on H4 (spouse has H1B extension applied for). What is the time frame in which the H4 has to be filed for .... with respect to resignation .... before resigning or after resigning .... is so within how many days of resigning. How does this person know if he/she is in status as H4 approval might take months .... Will the spouse's H1B extension receipt notice be enough as the approval might take a while.

Hello guys,
My frustration is increasing and patience going down. I am strongly considering moving back to India. When planning the move, a few questions popped in my head the answer to which I am not able to find (yet); hence putting it out here.
1. How can I inform SSN department or credit bureau that I am not longer in USA..hence no one can use my SSN even if it gets stolen? Is there a way to "lock" things down?
2. What happens to 401K? Is there a IRS tax law that says because this guy was on H1-B and leaving..don't charge him the 40% penalty?
2.1 After 40% in penalty and 30% in taxes...with the market beaten down...not much remains...wonder if it's even worth touching it. So if I decide to leave the money here in my 401K account, what happens when I want to withdraw it? Rather what is the best way to withdraw it?
3. Any estimates on how much it costs to ship things back to India? I live in 2 bedroom apt..so have the usual stuff.....couch, bed, tv, clothes of many sizes, lots of kitchen utensils. Just an average...I understand things can vary a lot.
4. PIO card has the passport number of my son on it...the passport will expire when he is five year old. So do I get a new passport number? If so what happens to the PIO card? Do I need to get a new one?
Others, please feel free to add to the list of questions.
Thanks
1. You can walk to your local SSN office and ask them about the lockdown on SSN.
Ideally if you are near 40 quarters of SSN contribution I will stay here few quarters longer to make it to 40 quarters. This way even if you are in India you will get some money when you retire ( few 100 dollars are not bad). ( I know about SSN and its problems but still there will be something there)
2. There is nothing in 401K laws that says you can withdraw the money before you turn 59.5, but you can try to establish a case of hardship and see. The predefined cases are here
401khelpcenter.com - Hardship Withdrawals Give Access to Your 401k Savings, But at a Cost (http://www.401khelpcenter.com/401k_education/hardship_withdrawal_article.html)
2.1 The Penalty is not 40% it is only 10%, (usually the way it goes in 30% tax + 10% penalty gives a total of 40% loss). But as someone suggested you can withdraw it in phases and not pay the taxes, in that case you will only pay the 10% penalty. I will consult a tax attorney to get more information on this.
also r2i websites are great help.
Good Luck

I have not been laid off and I don't have problems finding jobs; in fact my company has asked me to search for one more person with a background similar to mine. However I have been limited by the requirements of AC21. I was toying with the idea of leaving the country; but cannot sell my primary residence and might have problems obtaining a visitor visa for re-entry (to close on the house). I was seriously considering investing in some more real estate; but am holding back due to the random AC21 denials. I want to start my own business since I finally got my EAD this year - but with all the uncertainity of AC21 case approvals, I am not willing to put personal resources into a business in this country. Currently I am working on starting a free workshop for investment in my community - which will stop if my I-485 is denied in case my former employer revokes my I-140 (and yes; I did send in the letters for AC21). I have registered my dog with therapy international and volunteer my time for various causes (cabin repair, trail maintenance, public education) and donate regularly to the fire and police - all of these will take a hit if I have to leave.
I wonder what the reporter will conclude if he/she talks to immigrants who have lost jobs and have trouble finding new projects........
Anyway, let me know if I can be of any help.
Pls email your contact information.
No anonymous members please. I got a couple of private messages willing to be interviewed but asking to be anonymous.
IV has been always on the forefront of this struggle for legal immigrants. We have also openly walked on the streets for this cause. We are well educated and not illegal. So what is the fear? Only illegals live in the shadows. I cannot understand why some people want to stay anonymous.
I cannot also understand why only a couple of people responded till now. There used to be so many threads with ideas on housing, layoffs and economy. I remember a thread where someone asked IV's plans and said that we should talk to the media. We need everyone when there is an opportunity in the national media to present our case.

Do they have a signature authorization from you? If not , they can not send a G-28 that is not signed by YOU !
On the first page of 485, my employer put his address.
So I am guessing the 485 receipt will go to him even without any G-28.
EAD and AP will directly come to you anyway.

It would have been much helpful had DOS put forth the no. of visas still left over.
What's your take on the latest visa bulletin.
Thanks
Answer by Ron
They did say that they only had "a handful" of visas left. This advance is not necessarily inconsistent with that earlier statement. In order to use up visas and avoid waste, the Visa Office has to manage the quota to make sure that there are enough applications AND ADJUDICATIONS to exhaust the quota. They have no control over the CIS, but they do have control over the overseas consular posts.
What this tells me is that the CIS is doing nothing (or next to nothing) to use up India and China E2 numbers. By advancing the cutoff dates last month, VO was able to make more cases at overseas posts available for close out. Since the CIS obviously did not use many China/India E2 numbers in July and August, VO has had to advance the cutoff dates again to make enough cases pending at consular posts available to use up those few remaining numbers.

you might also need a copy of your approved Labour application.
I am not sure if you can get the documents directly from the UCIS becuase the documents belong to your employer and not you.
you can try through Freedom of Information Act(foia.com). but it might take a while to get the documents.

They will not care for us at all! But, there is an outside chance that one of the retrogressed is related to one of them or somebody knows a politician... and our e-mail also reaches them at the perfect time! And, one of the concerned politician/minister happens to meet one-on-one with Karl Rove, or any such powerful figure in the Bush Team! And, they bring it up with the Bush Team, who assure them they will make Retrogression disappear!!!
;) Hey, if we were so lucky - one of us might have won $365 mil Powerball, and donated $200K or more to IV outright! I would have, I know that for sure!
But, we have to keep trying every which way! Everything to gain- nothing ventured, nothing gained! Please, do not misunderstand me - I am not making light of somebody's ideas! Great things happen only if we keep trying!!!
