Please post the name of your company. I would request IV to setup a webfax so that all of us can send webfaxes to such employers to stop this exploitation. The copy of the webfax should also be sent to DOL and USCIS (with the name of such companies) each time it is sent to the company. We should jam the fax machine of DOL, USCIS and such companies. If we do this to 5-10 employers, all others will behave.
Seems like a good idea but doesn't this make them even mad and jeopardize the chances of the employee even more ???

Guys, Can we get some corporate funding on IV's effort. I agree that our contributions can also make a difference but if any big corporate decides to support our cause, don't you think it would make a very big difference, funding wise. Big companies like Mircrosoft, Oracle also do favor immigration reforms and I think they too are currently lobbying for the same. If somehow, we can also extract some contributions from them for the same cause that would really give great impetus to IV's efforts.

Where is this guy VDLRAO who predicted "EB2 India will be current within a Year"? Did he mean year 2067?:D:D
VDLRAO and me and other members did prediction based on USCIS efficiancy and based on how it worked for last 2 years. Since Jan 2009 after new secretary came in we see lots of news about improve in process. If they improve more and more then we will clear of old PD application but VB dates move slowly . but no back and forth jump like previous year. So lets say if VB touches 2005 this summer then it will be same for next fiscal year first quater. Then it may move from there.....

that is good news thanks !!! so the IO did talk to you even though 1 month has not yet passed ? I called yesterday and the systems were down ..but she said that if 1 month has passed and I have not recd the card then she will open a service request or something ..did the IO tell you that too ?
(I know this is a tracker only ..but I guess it is more helpful if we discuss posts like above too ..my advice to those on EAD's (and not H-1) ..file as early as possible ..This is a messy situation which can lead to bigger problems as drivers license cannot be renewed in many states without EAD !!)
I talked with customer service and they said that I have to call after 30 days. But I insisted asking "lets say i call after 30 days and I have not recieved my EAD and my current EAD is expiring and I cannot work after that. I asked for Evidence..I told her I received receipt notices , fingerprint notices in 5 days then how could you expect me to beleive that EAD is in mail for 25 days..I asked for options in this scenario which i know she could not answer and finally she transfered to Level 2 which is IO. he looked in some software or something I do not know but he said its not printed yet but in queue, both mine and my wife EAD's.

Yes, its a good idea to call again and follow up saying that you are very keen on knowing whether the Congressman made any decision yet. We have our hopes pinned up on this one!
Hi all of the people who did not call!!! Just look at the response we got we already have 2 of the caucus members as co sponsors of the bill If every member of IV called I have no doubt that most of them will become co sponsors but also that the bill will pass. It is our time. We need this to happen.....
Please call, BTW what do you people think about calling again? I think it will count as more support?? Let me know what you guys think and may be all the people who are active can call again....

this whole thread is a nonsense, it belevies that people are not aware of the tricks placed by desi consulting companies. how come people do not take jobs
in foutune 500 companies if they are so good at their skills, why do people go to
desi consulting companies for training, after MS degree every body is asking for
the list of consulting companies( why do they do that ).
there are people who ask is it valid to be without payslips on H1B ( how much
more ignorent can u be ) , bottom line they could not find the project and they want to blame the desi company for not paying them ( trash ).
wake up people.
thanks
Wastage of H1 visas is criminal.There should be a quota on H1 visas per company-no more than 500-1000 per company,plus percentage limits of h-1 visas to total employees in a company.Along with this if there is a simple provision as there is in other countries like england,where the spouse can work too it will solve a lot of issues.

I agree, this is the way politics works most of the time. lobby for votes, etc.
But isn't it also their job to do what is in the best interest of the Nation. Everything isn't decided by lobbies.
Maybe we're approaching this the wrong way, in trying to build competing lobby. it needs a new approach. Congress should be convinced in a different way.
Lobby is for optional, nice to have things, which will not be generally missed if they fail.
Legal immigration is none of these and is almost mandatory. Imagine losing for eg. 200K EB3s. another 50K doctors.
yes, they do think for the betterment of THEIR country. you and i don't fit in THEIR model of GOOD for their country.
your average low information "american" voter lacks the thought capability to process what you are saying.

IV members are requested to update their profile with valid dates so that we can make IV tracker helpful for everyone.
I have personally decided to make this request to everyone who does not have their details completed and only then respond to the member. If a member has bogus data in their profile for tracking purposes I would not be replying to that post. This might help encourage members wanting replies from IV core team for their questions.
Thanks, and i have. But there seems to be bugs in the tracker. For eg the filtering doesn seem to work and the page looks broken :confused: Would it be possible that these are fixed soon ? Great idea by the way.

We have an interview opportunity with a national TV channel. If you/anyone you know is interested, please contact Immigration voice.
could we talk about this rather than keeping on talking about Mr eastindia?
I would but I am not sure my story is the most compelling since EB3 ROW is by far not as bad off as EB3I or EB3C.
Whoever goes would have to leave anger at home though, I dont think anger will help us get through to people, emotion yes though?
Maybe we can figure out whos story would make the biggest impact and who is good at speaking, some might not feel comfortable doing thsi?
Thanks Pappu!

I think we are not reaching all the ppl that we can as of yet. If we can setup booths in front of Indian Community centers in various cities, post flyers at Indian grocery stores etc, we would be able to reach a much wider audience. I think we might be reaching the maximum number of ppl that would contribute who are browsing this web site. No amount of requests would get non-contributers to contribute. So, probably the efforts should be concentrated on getting newer members from outside...
Yes this is definately a good idea and will help us reach many people unaware of IV. We represent about a million people stuck in retrogression and have only got 8500 of them.
Pls help us with these efforts by executing your ideas in your own state. Once you start, and tell others what you are doing I am sure many others will follow you. You will find posters and flyers in resources section of this website.

July 31st will probably be your RD. Unless they mess it up. I read somewhere that it got messed up for someone.
I mailed my I-485 to NSC, CSC issued the receipts, and sent me a transfer notice (transferred to TSC). It is now pending at TSC. But the RD is the date NSC received my package.
Lasantha, I do congratulate you from the bottom of my heart. It has been a uphill journey for everyone. I am happy that you have completed your journey successfully.
One last question,
You mentioned your RD is June 29th. Is it the date from your FEDEX tracking #? Or this date is mentioned on your USCIS 485 receipt? Why am I asking this as because, I sent my application on 30th July, USCIS got it on JULY 31st. I sent it to NSC, USCIS transferred to TSC, TSC issued my EAD, AP and a 485 notice on Sep 22 mentioning that they are transferring my case to NSC. That is why it is very important for me to know if they will consider my JULY 31st date or Sep 22nd?

For your PD and EB category, you are able to enjoy 4 years of AOS benefits just because of IV. You will soon get your GC, only because of IVs continuous fight with CIS.. But hey you won't see it because it all happens behind the scene and someone else is picking your tab...
Yeah Right. Now you are going to tell me, my higher education is due to IV, me coming to US is due to IV, me getting bachelors, masters, phd is due to IV, me getting H1 B visa approval and stamping, My getting EB 2 filed approved is caz of IV. , labor approval, 2 yr eads, medical appointments are all due to IV. Get real.
When I was in trouble, I threw some money at Ms Sheela (not Sheela from sheela ki jawani) and voila , I had solution for my problems. IF we are legal here, we need to be afraid of anything, else glad to go back home.
Dude, understand that I am a friend not an enemy to IV advocacy. I just said, for me to contribute, I should feel that IV made an impact or will make an impact for my cause. Which I dont feel right now.
Make me believe and I am in. Until then keep trying.
If you still want to bark , well you can pick some tree as I just ignored this debate.
