Thanks

I have changed jobs recently using EAD after over 180 days of filing 485 and 140 approval. Process is pretty simple if you do not wish to notify USCIS like me. Just fill out a I-9 form with EAD details with your new employer and give them a copy of the card (front and back) and with passport copies. Job title and description do not match completely with the LCA. Employer will help with employment verification letter with salary/title/responsibilties if and when a RFE is received.

There is nothing funny about our state in US. Unless the humor is very dark the relevance will be lost. The idea can't bee to make another Monsoon Wedding.
There are many ways of telling a story. It can be either with humor or sentiment or any thing else. If we are presenting a story that was meant for telling problems (like h1b/GC process) presenting only problems will not achieve our goal in publicity. Show something that audience like (most of people like healthy humor I think) and include your concept/problem in that so that it will get in to people. Otherwise it will be so called award movie with lot of tears and sadness. Even that would work if it was presented with lots of creativity.
Any way problems are not only in US and they are there everywhere. I am also struggling with these Visa issues (GC waiting since 2002), but that doesn’t mean I haven’t had any humor in my life here in US. I didn’t understand your comment against movie like monsoon wedding. Please elaborate.

again from the same Murthy article:
http://www.murthy.com/news/n_porret.html
When explaining the risk of potentially stricter AC21 regulations to I-485 applicants, we are frequently asked, "If I change jobs under AC21 and the regulations are released after that, they won't apply to me, right?" Unfortunately, this is not correct. While it is not possible to predict the content or effective date of any future regulations, they will likely apply at the time of adjudicating the I-485 application, and not just when the job change occurs. In a hypothetical example, if new regulations were to limit the percentage of acceptable salary difference, or prevent multiple portings, the officer adjudicating the I-485 could decide that the job change violates the regulations, even if the change occurred months or years before the new regulations were issued.
Got it. I hope this stupidity doesn't happen!! Can this country's immigration laws get more convoluted???

How do Promotions impact one's existing GC application?
for example: one filed for the GC as a Software Engineer, 5 years down the road one switches to a different company in the same area/location using EAD (avoiding AC21 for now) and the salary is 30 % higher than that was mentioned on one's LC filing and the job title is sr software engineer (same or similar responsibilities, senior title). How would something like this impact one's GC application?
I also wonder what would happen to the GC application if one was to get another promotion and become a manager with even a higher salary (some job responsibilities stay the same and some new managerial responsibilites get added).
I am sure many of us would have faced this since clearly many of us have been waiting for many many years - I would really appreciate your input on this. Thanks!

You have used EB2 substitution labor. For EB2 you should have Masters degree or min 5yrs of work experience. Talk with your Attorney and try to get atleast 5 years of work experience certificate from your previous employers and try to match up with the labor. Open an MTR and it may help you. When you open an MTR your case will be in pending status and you can get a H1B extension based on approved labor. After getting your H1B extesnion apply for PERM labor ASAP. Then you will not have any problem.

Try DCU,US Bank,ING, and may be some more. I have taken loans from the latter and they gave me 6% for 5 year ARM although it was in 2006.
Try to call them and find out if you can get good deals. Also try to contact Wachovia or Washington Mutual. Please don't just take their words as the process may involve many hidden fees,etc. I think this is true with any financial institution unless we clarify it.
Good luck in your search.

VOTES. That's what these politicians are after.
What is 0.5 million against 12 million? In addition, this is pandering to Hispanics who have a huge representation in this country. They don't have a sense of Legal Vs Illegal. Even if it's an illegal hispanic, the legal hispanics will support him because most hispanics have a distorted feeling that somehow they're 'entitled' to be here and the laws don't apply to them. I am not denigrating them but I have read about what they feel (from non-partisan blogs and articles) and it's scary what their agenda is. It's sad but that's what the reality is.
We 'legal' immigrants are here to work hard and contribute but I'm sure we don't have any 'hidden' agenda of changing the cultural fabric of this country. These people do and we should be concerned about it too if we plan to live here for a long time. There might soon be a day when 'English' will disappear and be replaced by 'Spanish'. They have done it in a lot of places in the border states.

It is my understanding that many GC applicants do not need labor clearance. Nurses, EB1 folks etc. etc. So the total demand for GC = 30K labor cases + 100K non-labor cases. That would only leave 10K for retrogressed countries.
Due to the economic downturn there aren't many companies sponsoring GCs for employees. I doubt it would be more than 20 to 30k per year from now. This leaves 100-110k visas available every year for retrogressed countries like india and china
if there 300-400k pending GC applications in all categories then shouldn't all of us get our GC in next 3-4 years?

Yes. 2001 to 2002 was the worst period as far as job market goes. I know, a lot of my friends left the country and went back to India. I was without a job for 5 months in 2001. Luckily, I had a secure job during 9/11 and afterwards. But, if 2008 is going to be anything like 2001-02, everyone should start preparing for it. Most of the members in IV might have an option to port their jobs, thanks to AC21. But, there are so many unlucky people who will have a tough time. From my past experiences and based on the current market, I think, banking is and will be the worst hit sector. Food Products, Medical, Insurance industries should be ok.
I had a lunch meeting with the President of my consulting Company.(This is an american company). She met with a few CIO's and gave us their view points. Most of these CIO's are going to budget for new projects and products for this fiscal year and beyond. But, they said, they will be cautious in actually using the budget so early in the year.
My personal opinion, If anyone is planning to use AC21 to port jobs, please do so carefully. If you already have a stable job, it would be best to hold on to it, instead of looking for better pay at this time.
Good luck to everyone in this economy.

Congrats on getting your green card. Your post and attitude is the exact reason why DOL has made it almost impossible to get EB2 certification especially in the software field and why people despice consultants like you and your desi employer.
You said in your post "Appiled for EB3 labor in jan 2004, even though i am qualified for EB2" dear sir its not your qualification that determines whether you get to file in eb2 or not but it is what the job requirements are that determine whether it is eb2 or eb3.
Another line from your post "After realizing that the dates will never become current for EB3, my desi employer files for EB2 labor" this and the previous line clearly show that you and your desi employer have no respect for the law. It is because of blatant abuse like this that DOL is cracking down on eb2 filings. Now thanks to people like you and your desi employer who have abused the law now even eb2 india might never become current because tons of people have already ported and spillover to eb2 is not happenning anymore like previous years. People have realized even eb2 india is never going to move beyond 2003 so "consultants" like you and desi companies have moved on to abusing eb1. Seems like you are proud of your achievement just like the L1 folks from desi companies who brag about getting green card in less than an year by abusing L1.
To all the people who think they can pull a trick like mr salawrene by filing in eb2 again hard luck there are 120000 485 applications with USCIS with eb3 and eb2 having about 60000 each, because of abuse in Eb1 no more spillover of visa numbers to eb2 india wil occur so eb2 india will not move forward, on top of it dol is cracking down on eb2 filings. eb2 might start moving backward to 2003 or 2002 and will remain stagnant like eb3 because no visa spillover is happenning.
because of desi consultants and desi employers abusing the system the whole EB community is suffering, high time we respected the law and stop this practise. for speaking the bitter reality if eb2 and eb1 abusers, consultants, desi employers want to give me a red go ahead and do it, but ask yourself have I said anything which is incorrect
You yourself said, The job requirement decides the category. So if a EB3 guy gets promoted and that job requires EB2, There is no law that stops him from applying in EB2.
I am myself against Desi Consultants, who have no respect for law.But what you wrote above is not against law.
Congrats buddy on getting your GC,
Being an Indian, I really hate Indians, for being envious of other indians.
