Logiclife,
Competeamerica too is not happy with this bill.
Has IV talked to them about their stance and their plan of action?
How do you think Congress will react to these provisions?
They have STRIVE in the house. Is there a chance we get something
in the middle of the senate bill and STRIVE?

abused
11-28 04:33 PM
July 6th filer awaiting FP (no SR opened yet). My case has been transferred back and forth between Nebraska and California. I asked my lawyer - he advised me to "Sit tight as there is nothing that can be done except to wait for them to process my I140, I485, I765 and I131 applications."
So here I am, still being underpaid and abused by my current emloyer. ...waiting for the day that I can escape and get a better paying job and work in an employee-friendly environment.

I am also waiting for a GC to buy a house ... can't buy on a H1 visa with a project that keeps on getting extended every 3-6 months. You need stability for at least a few years to put in a committment for a mortgage that you are going to pay for 30 years.
I also work in a IT consulting position but still decided to go ahead and buy a home in St Louis back in September 2007. My 485/EAD/AP was filed in August 2007 and EAD approved a few weeks back. However despite my current situation, I believe buying a home was a wise decision considering the kind of lifestyle and security it provides for you and your family. I know a lot of my friends who decided to take the plunge and bought houses though they were working on H1 and have their GCs pending for a few years.

Man this sucks. I have been here for 6 years, got my Bachelors here, and now finishing my Masters. And now what awaits me is a damn lucky draw.
I seriously hope that the new bill gets approved, even if they don't approve the suggested 130K H1B quota, at least they should pass the clause of banning consultants from filing for H1B. The new bill suggests that only employers should be allowed to file for H1B and not third party consultants.
Damn touts.
Well good luck to everyone.

Hi all,
Mine is a different situation, i was with my employer till mid of last year and did not inform him while leaving his company and joined another job (h1 transfer) he is now saying that the vendor did not pay him some money and i have to pay that amount and he is demanding that amount for my W-2.
He also said that he would take legal action if i didnot pay his losses ( i did not sign any document with him other than my h1b papers) no agreements,
I am going to call IRS after feb15, but is he going to go to court?
Please suggest me.
Thanks
Dude, I think you shouldn't worry about this. The contract was between the consulting company and the client. If the client doesn't pay what is your fault ? You don't control the client. I don't think he has any case against you. He might have a case against the client for not paying the dues for services rendered but that is their problem , not yours.
These desi consulting firms are so friggin shortsighted and pennypinchers. They need to be taught a lesson. I really wish that they come up with some immigration reform bill where one of the items is to prevent exploitation of employees hired by these desi firms.

- Any advice for everyone?
knowledge, knowledge and knowledge! The earlier- the better.
Greatest disappointment that haven't discovered IV back then, say in 2001:D
Very true.
Lack of awareness and information is a big problem. Starting the process early is better. I have seen some people undecided about GC and waiting till the end of H1B to start. It is at that time they discover retrogression. Some discover retrogression only after 140 approval. Until then they are not even aware of IV.

Were you witness to what happened in his home on that day?? If not, don't be judgemental....leave that to him and his wife and to family court. IV is not for "every good cause"...we are having very difficult time ourself...
Looks like you already received GC and you have great & lot of time to get into other issue.
Munna Bhai ,I am at your side too.
BTB snathans story was good.But the issue of divorse wont have cropped up if his wife (or himself) have behaved that way earlier in your story.
I think a good % of us need file divorse to rejenuate our married life as per his story. :D:D...kidding . Next action plan.

Quick Chain of events .
India rejected both Boeing and Lockheed Martin's proposal of fighters . I am not debating the reasons or the merits of this decision if this was right or wrong . I am just discussing the potential repercussions this has had so far and might have .
'Exclusion of US firms from IAF jet deal a setback for ties' (http://www.indianexpress.com/news/exclusion-of-us-firms-from-iaf-jet-deal-a-setback.../783401/)
1) The issue is so serious that Tim Roemer , US Ambassador to India submitted his resignation immediately since he was on the hook for making this deal work .This shows the measure of disappointment they had.
2) India was seeking US assurances in security a Permanent Security council seat , which looks far fetched now .
4) Pentagon , Whitehouse and the DoD very upset that deal fell through . This sentiment will certainly percolate to the USCIS and the State department and might embolden Anti Immigration senators whose measures will get more support in the house and senate.
5) Prosecution of companies entangled in cases like Infosys might find more support and favor with the Govt.
Question is how/if there will be a backlash against India / Indian's get back at us at least in the short term .Increased scrutiny and visa denials , PoE Harassment , GC audits etc.
Will the US take a Tit-for-Tat reaction on this issue is what remains to be seen.
I hope you are not one of the guys, who have mindset to kill the person who they THINK he is in their way to getting GC .. because it will be dangerous combination
And I hope what others have written made you reconsider your view. If not, see this fact : Pakistan has crossed such lines, even done much worse things, several times but US has not broken ties etc. What US actually responds to is the ASSERTION of sovereignty and SELF-RESPECT. Not pansy behavior, if you know what I mean.
Don't worry. US will respect India's right to act in its interests. If they dont, then what difference will remain between it and a common country.

I went through the entire thread, i did not find any cases of people who had never used AC 21 and who left their employers right after 485 approval.
To be very specific, we need clarification on what the consequences are of leaving the sponsoring employer right after getting the GC esp people who never used AC21 and have been with the sponsoring company for several years before getting the GC.

Regardless of the incorrect forum to tell about yourself, your story has serious flaws.
you are just telling us your side of a photoshopped story.
Even after you are here illegally, you can correct things and take a legal turn. there are so many cases where people who have overstayed or crossed over illegally, got themselves deported and or brought themselves out of the closet and applied and got their citizenships.
Also, bcos you spent 30 years in the country, you should be given a priority over a kid from your country who kept applying for a green card lottery every year, trying to enter the US legally?
to make matters worse, you stayed illegally in a country and did not follow the rule of law.
1. I am beyond the �waiting for my delayed Green-Card� and �attempting to correct my ilegal status� stage. I am not new to immigration, I�m true to immigration.
2. I am no longer fighting for my rights. I�m OK. I�m in my own country with all rights available to me and am offered a Waiver by the U.S. to visit my friends, family and loved ones when I want. Today I�m fighting for my USC Immediate Relatives� rights from my country. How many of you high&mighty can say that? Probably never will too. You�d have to walk in my shoes and from my view none of you except for 24ps can fit them, though sledge_hammer might have to learn how to walk in them. He/she sounds a lot like me in my smug and cocky drug peddling and trafficking days. Clue, sledge_hammer: The key to expertise does not lie in what you do but in how you do it. Obligating an unrequested personal opini�n on someone is quite negligent and incompetent of a professional. But I guess that�s what�s expected of IV while you�re dug in here, hunh? How unfortunate.
3. You who are new to immigration can probably learn a lot from my case if you weren�t so caught up in your virgin-eared-newbies image. Like anyone�s going to believe that. Anyone who�s anyone already knows all you want is your Green Card or for whatever human right you feel is being overlooked in this life to be acknowledged while you�re still alive � like me. Let�s hope none of you will ever need an individual such as myself to understand your case anytime in the future. God bless you in all your endeveours.

No. I am not an employee of any of the companies named in H1B visa fraud last week. The current employer is my the sponserer of my H1 B visa and also my first employer . I did not change my employer.
This does sound strange, do you know what was the reason for this officer's visit to your employer two months back? also, i would suggest make sure all your paper work is fine, I mean LCA etc. indicating your correct place of work and right wages.
