All,
Do not despair yet. We were repeatedly told that bills take a lot of time to pass. Never the less we'll keep working on this bill and this also precisely why we're not pinning all of our hopes on only the Comprehensive Immigration Bill. We also have the PACE bill and the TALENT bill, which can bring a lot of relief to us.
Are there any plans by the senate or congress to to bring these two bills to the floor anytime? In other words, what is the current status of these two bills?

I would like to know How to file a complaint about labor fraud? I just found out that my employer didn't file 485 for me and instead he used the labor for someone else. Is there anyway I can file a complaint? I have no other option except to wait until the dates are current again. I paid all the expenses for labor, 140 and 485.
Is this Desi?? This is very very bad.

Note that after marriage, the GC for spouse needs to be filed under FB category which has a backlog of 4-5 years
F1, b1 and b2 visas are not dual intent (requires non-immigrant intent). On all forms you need to mention the visa status of all relatives who are in the US. So watch for that.
H1, L1 are dual intent visas. Pending I130 does not affect L1 or H1 visa approval since these visas are dual intent. This is usually the safest option.
Follow to join (Consular processing) helps if you were married before the 485 approval.

On your previous post you mention about salary hike and %ges...can you please clarify if a person continues to work for same employer (who filed PERM and 140) and salary hike is (base salary or bonus) 10% or more per year and AOS application process takes 2-3 years (so, total 30% difference in 3 years)...is that a negative on your application? or can it be a reason for denial?
Thanks
Rahul
If 485 application is pending for longer time, say more than 2 years, I have seen that USCIS wants a reconfirmation from the employer that they continue to support the green card application for the position for which the application was originally applied. This is not just applicable to consulting companies alone. Any types of companies and applicants in any categories (Eb-1,2&3) could get RFE at the last stage of the process. So to have your application processed without a shred of a doubt, it is best to be in a position to reply that RFE anytime during the process.
Thanks

misdemeanor charge and green card
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I may be charged with Misdemenor Class A for Domestic Battery around 15th of Nov/1st week of december(Court Dates).
Am I screwed for green card? I applied for 485 in July, got EAD.
Will there be a Deportation process involved? I am prepared for the Worst hpoing for the Best...
Guys, need your advise....
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Charge sheet is on Class A Misdem..
This is my first offense.. I have not had any offence at all...
Will being on Probation cause a issue. I spoke to my Immigration lawyer.. he said I will be called for a Interview...
He asked me to tell the Criminal Lawyer to try to get supervision. but he said not to plead guilty...
When I relayed the same to my Crim lawyer,, he said it will be difficult to get Supervision if we plead not guilty...
So does it mean Misdemeanor does not qualify for Deportation?
I am cofused whether to plead guilty or not...
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.

It'll be nice if the core endorsed it. We members do contribute and participate in all campaigns when core asks. It'll be great if the core lets the ideas bubble up from members too! That'll make it a two way street.

Well my friend, don't bring your pretentious "I'm-so-great-I'm-non-judgemental-oo-la-la" BS here. If we don't make it clear in our replies that we do not condone any actions that break the law, we are just making it easier for anti-immigration people to easily point fingers at us and claim we are all drug peddlers or criminal.
I would urge more members here to reply to the OP that we at IV do not have any sympathy for people breaking the law.
As for you, think before you type!
With your history of getting rammed here i would avoid saying that if i was you,
I agree with making it clear that we ( the forum members) condone actions breaking the law but there is a difference between telling the same to a person in a professional manner as against shoving our personal moralistic BS in their face.

Agreed, but still there is a quota in place for STEM graduates in H1-B regardless of the university rating/quality. The law makers/USCIS approved it - so there must be something in it that appeals to them. :rolleyes:
Yes ... and that "something" is a billion dollar business model. Education is a big business here .. not to speak of billions spent by the students in housing, insurance, living cost etc. And if there is no H1 after studies, this source dries up .
Contrary to popular belief, most students studies on Self Funding basis .. paying huge out-of-state tuitiion. So the myth that US Tax payers are paying for education of International Students is not true. The miniscule high flyers who go to top schools, go for Ph D, Post Doc, tenure track proffesors etc already have the option to get GC through EB1.

We think about outsourcing because it affects engineers the most. especially IT/software. Remember software is still a tool. What you do with the software is more important. The process of creating software is just like making any other tool (every problem is hard to solve only for the first time).
Western countries started the industrial revolution (manufacturing/factories). Now China is leading in manufacturing. IT revolution, again was started in the west. In 20 years, it is possible that very few lines of original software is written in the US. Its not that US does not have smart people who cannot be trained as engineers but more like the smart people in US prefer other occupations as compared to engineering/software.
I imagine the computer/internet revolution to be similar to the air travel revolution. Both made the world a smaller place. A few decades ago, being a pilot was a glamorous, high paying job. While pilots may still be reasonably paid, they are now perceived just like taxi drivers (with all due respect to both professions). What is to say how IT engineers are perceived as in a few decades from now. 13 years ago, a maths professor who taught us a class said "Before the computer was invented, we had a profession called typists; now they are called computer scientists".
US education system : A few months ago, there was an article that debunked the myth that 'US education is falling behind other countries'. The US education system may be a little pressured (especially in places with more population - but certainly not falling behind other countries. Just count the number of colleges in the US.
I am not just being brouhaha about the US. But just putting things in a different perspective.
H1B, GC, legal immigration are just sub audible noise in the overall scheme of things. Yes. it affects us a great deal because we cannot live unfettered lives.
On the other hand, India & China ( & Brazil/latin america & Russia) are starting to rise back (yes, each country had its own golden past - remember Columbus was trying to find a route to India when he discovered America. Marco Polo is still remembered for discovering the silk route to China....) These countries got left out of the renaissance, industrial revolution developments that gave western europe and north america an edge over the 3rd world countries.
Growth in the above mentioned countries will result in increased demand for goods and services that will benefit the overall global economy.
IMO

Not even CIS, only DOS can make a meaningfule prediction. Last year, CIS had no idea that DOS would make all categories current in the July bulletin. If CIS had any control over that, it would have never happened.
If I remember correctly last year, some 14000 visas were given to India EB3. EB3 includes categories like Nurses, etc. We cannot expect them to login to and keep their status up to date. hence, numbers prove nothing.
For that matter not even DOS. Looks like the date movement back and forth is only a 'best-guess' game.

My EB2 was rejected initially but later approved due to Sheila's evalaution of my CA degree equivalent to master's degree. I did not know her but my lawyer insisted to get it done through her. She was good for me.

We need to call for unity ask people to come out and support this initiative.
We got to do somthing. Enough is enough. Think of all high skilled workers not going to work for a day what kind of impact that will have? What kind of awareness that will create? I am ready to give up one day worth of pay for this. Anyone else?
Well, even before Indian independence, it was just a handful of population that were actively involved in the process, majority took life as it came and were afraid. In fact, there are a lot of coward stories where cowards helped the British against freedom fighters. The reason British could rule India so easily because desis are submissive and it took a long time for leaders like Mahatma Gandhi to lay a foundation and gather critical mass enought o bring about a change and the worst thing is - the only change that happened was that British govt moved out. 60 years after independence, we are still divided mentality, lack of civic sense, we claim greaatness in getting IT and BPO projects, we could not win a gold medal in Olympics nor could we make any big scientific achievement - the worst thing is we come here to US and stay divided and expect that someone will do good to us

this is a one-sided view of someone hell-bent over renting is better than buying.
not all the things make sense for all areas of US. In texas you can buy 2000+ sq.ft area house for around 200k.
and if you take 15 yrs mortgage, you will not pay more money towrads your interest.
people on internet have their own agenda. dont fall for this one unless the guy is Warren Buffett or the likes of him...

This is the most bizarre thing I ever heard w.r.to immigration. Usually the IO schedules an interview at one of the local offices or at one of the CBP (Customs and Border Patrol) offices. Atleast in San Francisco, both USCIS and CBP offices are located in the same building.
This happened to me and I may try to summarize my experience here. OP relax . PM me if you want to.
I Filed EB2i AOS in 07/07. Got a phone call at home (sometime in sep07). I was at work so my wife was the one who recd call and gave them my work ph#. Guy called at work, introduced himself and asked for time to visit me. We fixed up next morning . It was a kind of tense night. I had not informed my attorney about this- thinking it a part of background checks.
Next morning, an officer in plain bussiness dress showed up at exact time, introduced and gave me his bussiness card and presented his official ID card.
He spent some 45 minutes or so., and had several questions of personal nature about family and friends and money transmitted to india over the years (He had a complete list of transfers)
It was all serious questions but in a very casual/relaxed atmosphere (Nothing like allegations/judgemental).
This all ended very well. Saying GOOD LUCK to GREEN CARD.
Btw: I arrived in 2000 , worked for the same university until then.

Guys, I'm as furstrated as everybody else with the process and I would like to direct that frustration into something positive. :)
I live in San Francisco so my congresswoman is Nancy Pelosi and Dianne Feinstein's office is in the city.
I'm very impressed with the momentum that this group is putting together and I would be happy to be a part of the work that you are doing.
