I certainly expected a better articulated reply than a brilliant one-liner.
OK. I missed your inline comments. so here we go:
So why bring it up at all? l have lived in Texas in hispanic majority communities. I havent met any who want california or texas to be a part of mexico. If we start bringing history into it, then the only people who should be here are the native americans.
Like I said, I am not suggesting CA/TX should be brought back into Mexico. All the Hispanic bashing that happens day-in day-out in the media should be aware of history. I brought it up to show a different perspective.
Immigration to the US is a privilege, not a right.
Agreed. How you implement the spirit of the law is what we are discussing here.
You insist on making it sound more complex than it is. It really isnt. Whats right is right and whats wrong is wrong.
I sincerely hope you are young and when you get ten years older you may see other shades in life. I simply do not understand how you do not see as to how that man thinks about people (see my earlier post) and goes ahead and treats them the way he does.
I am not condoning the 'illegal' act of the person but how she was treated especially when this guy has a certain mindset.
This is propaganda. In this country no one can get away with doing what you claim he does.
Check out the links I posted and there is always google. And there are close to 2700 lawsuits against the Sheriff. His day due in court is not very far away.

hello guys, i just went through all the 6 pages but still am confused.
This is how my name appears on my passport:
First name- ______(blank!)
Last Name- Ravneet.
one every US document including SSN, License, Job, its listed as FNU Ravneet.
I am on F1 visa, working on my OPT. My student visa just expired but my OPT-EAD is valid till june09. I feel very embarassed when asked" how do u say ur first name", I need to have it changed, could somebody tell me step by step the process involved.
I can drive to NY consulate and have my passport changed, but then how to change every US document, I mean would a expired US visa be a issue? My EAD is valid and I am legally in status. Please guide!

Let's get started on this push - it's a win-win solution for all concerned.
Attempts can be made to include the provision to file I-485 if priority date is not current (or make it such that it automatically applies... given this change).

Good one, Change to workflow should not be an issue, but we should have IV core support and reasonable to pool of money (not peanuts) to make this a success. I would recommend to run a funding drive, specially for this effort once IV core endorses this effort. In day to day life, Everything begins with $, you get what you pay for and nothing is free.

USCIS has done what britisher's did "DIVIDE AND RULE".
They have divided the whole GC process into various categories already.
First it is Employment/Family/lottery.
Then it is eb1/2/3 and so on
Then it is country wise quota.
I mostly see people from categories eb 2 and 3 fight over this issue.
Few years back it was just eb3.
Please do not start a new category "SUBSTITUTED LABOR" .................no one wants anyone ahead of him and same applies to me as well.

Me and my lawyer sent formal inquiry to TSC about receipt date of my case and TSC as insane they are stated they will use Oct 10, 2007 which is the ND. My app was shifted to VSC by TSC for data entry. I have a receipt from VSC showing RD of Aug 3rd, 2007 however TSC officer replied in email stating they do not go by the dates from VSC their date is Oct 10, 2007. Such an insanity where TSC sent my app to VSC for data entry and is not honoring the date VSC entered. My lawyer is sending a formal request to correct it. I have taken Infopass in Sept as well however i may miss the Sept boat because of this wrong RD this TSC is using. This may very well be the case with a lot of folks.

My friend, Who said its not a problem? in my earlier post I have provided a big laundry list of Line cutting measures in place are these not problems? BUT the point is , is it worth it a fight ? Subs is long gone, We are fighting for Country quota from a year + atleast and we are still at square one and the problems keep worsens. We all worry about subs where there is no action. There is no fixing to this right now its a dead horse. Problem is VISA Numbers in XYZ,000's. Lets recapture them...
Why do you think it is unethical, I was stuck in Labor My comp gave me one option use either subs or dont ask us... In fact I even dont have exact copies of my subs thats hidden from me. So for me is that Unethical? For me a person who qualifies for EB2 and applies now is a line cutter due to the fact that EB2 Q is better than EB3 and they are getting green card faster. Law allows them to do that. is it not jealous to me ? The list grows...
You are an exception of course. But there are so many unethical and undeserving folks that abused this rule and have made things miserable for many of us.

I really think we should have thought of it much earlier ..nevertheless it is not too late. I love the idea indeed. I do not think USCIS should have any objection to this at all unless they have bad intentions.

This is very useful information. Pappu is unarguably right that it doesn't make sense to wait for a year even after paying $5K. The whole system is absurd.
I am writing mail to Ombudsman regarding delay in replying FOIA.
Guys, as IV is also putting all options and working on this, lets not loose our momentum and keep contributing towards this. Pappu's message clearly indicates that if needed, this fund will be used for this purpose specifically and also as he mentioned, we need more fund to get data earlier.
Please edit your first post on the thread to include my post and update your post to start this action item. We do not have much time and need to move fast. USCIS took 4 months to reply to the letter and gave us only 1 month to reply. We have already lost a few days.

Most people think law suit is a bad thing, but that is not right. In a democratic country law suit is the right way to deal with things. We are legal immigrants, we have all the rights to file a law suit, but with full support of IV.
People have already filed a law suit on the same day the President signed the bill! (yesterday, the wire tapping bill...)
By filing a law suit, all we are trying to do is to fix the laws which are not working. Basically, we are doing the right thing. Not only us, but future Legal immigrants will be benefitted, they don't have to go thru what we had to...
Here are the things that needs to be fixed...
1. Country quota
2. Recapturing visas..
3. 3 year EAD/AP
4. End the endless wait ( Proposing a new law ;))
What is "End the endless wait" ?
EAD is a very good example, If 90 days have passed after filing EAD, you have the option to go to a local USCIS office and get a temp one. We should have a similar option for all the peper work. For example, each and every stage in green card process should have a a day count for processing. Like name check should be completed in 180 days.
Basically, when we receive any receipt notice, it should have a statement which reads "We have received your application and we will take action within 180 days. If we fail to act by MM-DD-YYYY, Please go to the nearest USCIS for approval.."
Sounds little ambitious ?? well, we are not asking for too much, just a day count. Lets say if the whole Green card process takes 3 years or 10 years based on the day count for each stage, people can decide whether they want to immigrate to USA with a clear idea that it will take x days to become a permanent resident ( like how it works in all other countries except USA)
Even a person jailed gets to know how long he is going to spend his time behind bars, but we do not know when we will be free from this immigration mess!

:(I am planning to renew my passport from DC Indian Embassy counter.
I was looking at their website for instructions and found that the passport size photograph required is (3.5 cm X 3.5 cm). But when I printed the application form from the website, Checklist at the end of the application shows the passport photo size as (2" X 2").
I am confused as 3.5 cm does not translate into 2" in size.
Gurus, Anyone who has recently renewed their passport at Indian consulate or DC embassy please share the information on what size of photographs were attached to application.
Appreciate your time and help.

Plainspeak says.."As far as i know the whole MS F1 visa is a big scam and loophole to enter us and stay here when you are not supposed to and that is the loophole that needs to be closed first instesad of worrying about fruad porting and EB1 fraud. Closing thsi student GC loophole will clear up the whole EB retrogression mess "
F1 is not a scam. its legal visa. once u enter into usa on F1, u can stay here to study. while doing MS, u can also work on CPT legally. after completion of the MS degree, it is legal to stay on OPT and work. recently the US govt has increased the OPT period from 12 to 29 months. again its legal. its legal to apply for H1B while maintaining a proper F1 status or OPT.
People who dont like this.... dont either because they dont understand F1 very well, or just plainly speaking jealous or out of their mind.
i guess we should be happy if someone is making progress legally even if we are not in the same boat.:)
