This is actually a very good idea. Maybe not 10% even 25% is fine.
This way microsoft, oracle etc. can get their workers.
Even Deloitte, PWC they hire americans and pay you when you're on bench.
Unlike most indian consulting companies, which don't pay you when you're on bench and make you lie on your resume.
The only and simple way to stop H1B abuse is to allow only max 10% non-immigrant (H1, L1, TN etc) employee in a company. Rest 90% have to be Green Card or Citizen. These desi consulting, Indian big companies must be hving at leaset 90 % employees on non-immigrant status.
Simple and universal rule that will solve all the H1B problems

We, the "aliens".
"Part of my frustration is to hear illegal immigrants called immigrants when I'm called an alien. I'm doing things right, but I'm still called an alien," ... "If I lose my job tomorrow, my reward is a ticket back home." Very true...
Most of my colleagues on L1/H1 visas went back upon completion of their 5/6 year terms, they never applied for GC. Couple of them are right now packing back.
The management of the company (not IT related) bravely decided to replace the "aliens" by american engineers. This proud decision had a disaterous consequence - our international based customers pulled back and found other contractors. Despite of all the money pumped to promote the "american" presence in the company, down-sizing is on its way and closure is on the horizon...
I was stupid enough to decide in 2003 to apply for a GC and to bear all this BS. Now working hard on plan B and waiting for the right moment.
Seriously considering plan B - Packing up.

In past days, immigrants come to US thro only consular processing (no AOS in past) to become a permanent resident. Even now most of the immigrats (family based) comes thro CP. Therefore, one has to wait 5 years to become a citizen. This makes sense, because, this period is necessary to check the character of a person before becoming a citizen and to check whether one has maintained continuous residence here to become citizens. This same logic will not be good for people already in USA for more than 5 years legally (Particularly employment based immigrants). Only 10 to 15 % of immigrants go for AOS. Most of us here in USA for more than 5 to 10 years. We have waited for labor certification since 2001, waited for 140 and now waiting for 485. We paid taxes, maintained legal status and good characters during last 5 to 10 years. It is unjustifiable for us to wait again another 5 years to become a citizen. The old rule of 5 year waiting period makes no sense for people already lived legally more than 5 years here. In this current situation, one has to wait 10 to 15 years to become a citizen. It is a big wait. Therefore 5 year waiting rule must be eliminated for applying citizenship, if people maintaind 5 year legal residency (either in non-immigrant or immigrant or combained) prior to filing N-400.

One more thing along the same lines, what will happen if my friend gets his H-1B through non-profit organization and will want to move to a profit organization? Will he have to again wait untill the regular quotas kick in? In other words can he simply transfer his H-1B to a profit organization at any time of the year regardless of the availability H-1B visas in the numbered-cap/quota system?
regards
I transferred from non-profit to profit. I have a US CS degree which has a separate H!B quota. I was not aware of all these issues at the time of transfer. So I don't know the category in which I was plugged.
I think it will be counted against the cap. It was discussed in some forum some time back.

I have a BC which is issued on 2004. Do I still need 2 affidivits? My Lawyer didn't ask me to gather affidivits. Any thoughts on that?
Did anybody filing through FDBL? Any idea how long they are taking to file once they have all the documents and papers?
Thanks!
This is just my lawyers opinion, If the BC was issued/date of birth registered is after 1 year of birth, 2 affidavits are required.
Also, getting a affidavit made is fairly simple as it does not involve any governmental agency. It is a good idea to notorize it and have it on a cheap stamp paper.

(1) I found a unique way to cope with the stress of our immigration nightmare.
through Day trading??
(2) It is not easy and it is not for the weak hearted but the rewards are wholesome and tremendous.
(3) Now lets Play !!!!!
Have you just tried to sell Day trading to IVians?? LMAO. I am sorry but I disagree that Day trading is an investment. Day trading is risky business and one needs plush amounts of cash as SIPC/SEC will not release the money on the same day. Don't even get me started on the margin accounts.
I agree with (2) and would also like to point out that the risks are also substantial. One can get addicted to day trading and I dont need to tell what addiction can do to any one. It needs time during work hours. ie 9 30 am and 4 30 pm. A lot of people did day trading during the dot com boom and recently with FRE & FNM. We know the results.
While you might have taken refuge in day trading for the stress immigration has caused, it can be a serious double whammy/nightmare if the calculations go wrong.
All said, if you feel that there is enough money to be made and normal Joe Bloggs can cope up with the pressure, please share your thoughts in detail.

Hi,
My 485 petition is with NSC. I opened an SR last month and got a rather uninformative response today. It does not tell me if my petition has been pre-approved or has even cleared the background check.
"
The status of this service request is: Your file is currently with the adjudications department, waiting on the availability of an officer to be assigned your pending case. Please allow at least another 90 days to hear something further on your application.
"
I think last month they were not working on Feb 06 cases and probably they have assigned your case to a officer by now ...just pray and hope to see approval soon

Hi,
I have entered US on H4 and then I got my H1. I wanted to go to Mexico for my H1 stamping as I have to go to my home country and come back. When I saw my paystubs I found that the SSN number on my paystubs was not correct. I verified with my employer and he says it was his mistake.
Can we correct and regenrate the paystubs with correct SSN. Will these paystubs cause a problem for me during my stamping in mexico. I started working only 7 months ago and I do not have W2 till now. Please advice on how to deal with this.
Its not a big deal. I am surprised, why they even print SSN on your pay-stub. That practice is long gone, because of all the identity theft issues. I dont have my SSN on my paystubs.
Just ignore it....and if they ask, just say "Oh!! I didn't realize that...i'll have to ask the company HR to rectify the error..."

I will answer some of your questions to the best of my knowledge.
There is also a lot of information on advocacy on the top of this page, 'Advocacy' tab.
Red threads are action items started and approved by admin/core. donor threads say "donor forum" on the title.
Admins are still in the process of organizing, and a lot of this can be done only once we finalize most of the volunteers and donations collected - it will depend on this.
Contributions are optional and no money is expected from volunteers, except what you spend for your own stay and travel. Of course every one knows There ain't no such thing as a free lunch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/There_ain%27t_no_such_thing_as_a_free_lunch). people still do wish though!
The only free lunch is meeting your local lawmakers as they are obliged to listen to your issues. That is the only thing we have asked most people to do in large numbers
Business dress code should be good enough. We are trying to convey we are high skilled immigrants and future entrepreneurs who create jobs.
You're right most lawmakers don't even know we have a problem and the reason is we as a community are not reaching out to them. Representatives of house change every 2 years.
Thanks for your efforts. Employer support is very important in conveying our issues. Large companies have their own political lobbying group. Support of citizens and Green card holders helps a lot.
We still need a lot of volunteers all over the country, who are ready to work and not just post brilliant ideas on online forums.
Everyone has to work and spread information. Its no good saying why doesn't core do this or that and everything else.
Dear All,
First of all I am pleased to inform you that I will certainly attend the advocacy campaign. This will be my first participation. I am eager and hope to make it. I have also started making travel / stay arrangements.

My apologies for replying to a posting from like a million years ago :-)
But, I really do not understand why you have to knock Saralayar like that in your reply. What has he said that is so offensive or disgusting?
I really see no problem with his/her post, he was just asking the IV community if his issue can be addressed or not. Its up to the community as a whole to decide what to do with it.
Relax, the sky is not falling down on you!
I am surprised, but are you really a member of the "high skilled" community or are you just faking it to be on this forum?
I don't think you should embarrass your self or your profession, though we do not know your identity.
