Skills in general are typically formed by three components:
a) 1/3 - Formal hands-on Training
b) 1/3 - On the job experience
c) 1/3 - Reading, research on your own
If you have some indirect project experience by working as a programmer for example, I don't see why not you cannot do items a) and c) above. At least the PMP (or whatever certification you intend to take) will be ready when opportunities come and the training should help you expand your horizons. Good luck.
I really don't know, As some body suggested doing PMP, for doing the PMP certification you need to have a project management experience of few years right?

There are total 27 EB3-I approvals on since Oct'2008. In 6 months, only 27 approvals is not a good number.
Does anybody know why USCIS is not touching EB3-I aggressively and are we close to using all EB3-I for this year already?
Thanks.
Yes 27 EB3-I approvals seems pretty low. Hopefully DOS would move EB3-I cut off date in May.

Last few lines of this artice is clear about Senate mood. Even IV wants to lobby sepeately for gc numbers IV has to come up with reasonable numbers based on requirement. Arbitary numbers or blanket exemptions will have more chance for failure.
But unless they can prove that they system is not currently being abused, and unless they can come up with specific figures for the number of visas required, they will have a hard time persuading lawmakers that the cap needs to be raised beyond the current proposal of 115,000.

What you are saying is a high level picture of what the lawmakers think.
Instead of asking reasonable numbers asking for no cap.
True that the tech companies are not comming up with a cap because they believe by saying this, they might be restricted for many years to bring in extra people if they have an opening.
Before dot com bust even lot of US citizens welcomed H1b persons as there was not much layoffs. But past 7 years layoffs increased to outsource to India,China and other countries. For that they have to hire H1b and L1 persons from Countries mainly India. Those things made anti immigrants hardened their stand. US workers fear that they may lose job if US opens up immigration too much.
How did the anti-immigrants get a upper hand on this. They are allowing illegals to get an easy path to citizenship.. this will cause a huge influx of people who will benefit the economy but down the line their children will take up the jobs of the americans.. so why a benefit to illegals.
Now you would say that there are so many companies lobbying for the illegals,
true but why don't they listen to the tech lobbyist who are few in number but asking what is actually,legally, abide rulles ly necessary to increase the economy.

I saw a petitioner recommend GT law in one of the posts. I think she is a lot luckier than me. I have had very bad experience with GT Law recently. Please see the following facts:
1) After 3 months, I was only informed that my salary is not meeting the prevailing wage requirement; 2) After 6 months, I was told that the attorneys are still struggling with the job description themselves without asking earlier for a conversation with my manager to help them resolve the problem. The issue they are struggling is that the field of my advanced degree is not related to the field I have been working in even if my skills sets fit right in!!! Can you believe it that we are actually advising them how to handle this issue and paying them a lot of money???? 3) During the 6 months, the attorneys have been changed twice and the transition of my case from 1 set of attorneys to another was very poor (I was asked for the same set of documents twice). It seems the process started all over again with each change. With the most recent set (the 3rd) of attorneys, they sent my files to the Maryland State to assess my salary level last week after we were informed about salary issue 3 months ago by the 2nd set of attorneys. It has been really a big mess. It has also shown that different sets of attorneys are definitely not talking. 4) When I check with them once every two - three weeks about progress, they would never give me a clear or meaningful answer even though they responded pretty quickly. They don't even want to tell me what has been the maximum processing time of all the labor certification cases they have handled. Now, after 6 months, my job advertisement has still not been launched yet and I have no idea when it will happen. BTW, GT Law is contracted with my company and I am required to use them for labor certification. Now I'm thinking I will have to change to a different company if I want to get it done quickly and successfully.

u cannot roll into a roth directly. u have to roll into a regular ira and then to a roth.
but the earlier statement made sense.. dont withdraw immidiately..wait till the next yr and then withdraw from ira..so ur taxes will be 10% penalty and ur tax rate at that time...which will depend on the value of ur 401k.
so if make 80k now and are in the 25% bracket and u have 80k in 401k then u ll have to pay taxes equivalent to the 25% bracket.
but if u make 80k and have 20k in 401k then u r bracket will be the lowest one.

Don't want to pick on anyone one or anything.. just case-in-point to what I posted earlier.. here we have intense legal debates, and legal opinions with people who can not distinguish between Title VII and EEO which are legislative laws and between the constitution. These laws are not part of the constitution and they include provisions for federal and local governments and their agencies to override parts of rules if they deem necessary.
Again you are plain wrong. If a non-US citizen buys house in the US then does he have the right to own the house and live as he wants? The answer is YES.
Similarly, the US Constitution protects certain rights of non-US citizens who are in the US. One of them is right to the Equal Opportunity Employment. Now if a law is passed such that it intentionally or unintentionally goes against the right of the US citizens or non-US citizens, employed in the lands of the US, to Equal Opportunity Employment then YES the US courts can rule that the law is unconstitutional and hence no longer applies.
The Key Point: Equal opportunity employement advancement is protected by Constitution ("Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII)") and hence the Supreme Court can overturn the per country quota limitation if the Supreme Court finds that the per country quota leads to discrimination at employment, which is unconstitutional.
Unfortunately, I agree with you, this thread is going no where. It will go on for 10+ pages and then die. I have seen may be 5 such threads on immigrationvoice and .

I am EB-3 ROW PD 2007 Aug. Reading all the Eb-3 I people's angry, I started to wonder what's gonna happen to the EB-3 ROW. Seems like if lots of Eb3-I change to EB2-I , They will probably eat up all the Spillover from Eb1, EB2 ROW from now on. That makes EB-3 ROW and EB-3 I become the same boat.
Is it what gonna happened?
All Indians and Chinese will file only EB2 now onwards:D
The problem is with past filings how to convert them to EB2.

To my knowledge you can leave your employer only after your I-140 has been approved and your I-485 has been pending for 180 days or more. However if your employer is able to continue ur GC as future employee till the I-140 is approved then you could transfer ur H1B to another employer . Plz check with an attorney though.

I got 2 positive responses from orkut members in DC.
One said Oh ok, I will.. so this person didn't even know about it until after seeing the scrap.
Yes I posted scraps on individual members' scrapbooks, not just community posts.
I suggest if you are on orkut, scrap any and every one in DC communities, if a lot of people ask them to come, they will know how important it is!!
Great idea! Why don't you start a thread on using ORKUT? It would be helpful!

In my previous company all the work was through an attorney. This attorney will always commit some mistake in the forms.
I think paralegal is better than an attorney for just preparing the forms. They charge less. They know as much as an attorney.
I know a paralegal who can prepare paperwork for H1B, PERM, 140 and 485. The email is icanhelp33@gmail.com.
