Not from last nights interview, but in primaries season during Politico's live interview on CNN Obama said this about legal immigration:
"It is important that we fix the legal immigration system, because right now we've got a backlog that means years for people to apply legally. What's worse is, we keep on increasing the fees, so that if you've got a hard working immigrant family, they've got to hire a lawyer; they've got to pay thousands of dollars in fees. They just can't afford it. It's discriminatory against people who have good character, but don't have the money. We've got to fix that. "

Well, when I meant stay here, I obviosuly didn't mean forever. We should know within next year or so where various immigration bills stand. If anything is at all feasible or not. If nothing gets passed I agree not much point in staying here, i agee with all the points you said, we are indeed sacrificing a lot here.
I accepted the fact that working for the same company and technology has pretty much killed my technical career. So, I have been working for the next step.
As for the GMAT and PMI, already working on that, I have been taking PM certification courses at Berkeley Extension and should take GMAT in next 3-4 months. The moment, if at all, I get GC, I will be back to school.
I realize that this job is just a stop gap for me, as is for many of us, if I ever get my GC I will quit it at the earliest possible time.
But my point was while we are here, we need to increase our efforts to get these legislations passed. If there was no CIR or skill bill our situation would have been hopeless.
We just need to work harder and we will have a legislation passed in our favor. It does require a lot of work from all of us, I am suggesting simple stuff, just write letters to senators and media, every week, if all of us do this every week, someone is bound to hear us.
If things dont work out in our favor we all will have to go back, and we will find that out in next year or so. But everyone, including lawmakers, realzie the fact that if so many temp worker quit and go back, this country will come down to its knees, at least for few days/months, till they find replacements.
I am more hopeful, I think we will get one of those bills passed for our favor.
Don't think of giving up, let's intensify our efforts, it may seem far but the next turn might be the one for us.

Disagreement is one thing .. name calling is another. Anyhow, I rest my case. :p .... peace
Apart from the bad language used by some people .... I dont believe that there is any infighting .... disagreements with point of view is not infighting ... It just a primer for the points and discussions that will definitely come up when lawmakers will argue their points of view. And from that perspective it is enriching this portal forum and not denigrating it.
I welcome the discussion.

Singhsha,
Please see the below.
Employment-based preferences 162,176
First: Priority workers 26,697
Second: advanced degrees or aliens of exceptional ability 44,162
Third: Skilled workers, professionals, and needed unskilled workers 85,030
http://www.dhs.gov/xlibrary/assets/statistics/yearbook/2007/table07d.xls
So from now on in EB2 there would be around 100k approvals where as in EB3 it would be around 50k approvals due to the chage of vertical fall out to horizontal fall out of visa numbers.

Experts,
I have done e-filing for my AP renewal. I read the instructions to see what documentation I need to mail,but I did not find any documentation specifically for e-filing. Does this mean that there is no need to send any documents? I heard USCIS will take picture during biometrics which is all they need. Can you please share your experiences on this. thanks a lot.

How about having a monthy/semi monthly conf call (similar to Rajiv Khanna's call), that will probably help in making every one aware of the structure and heirarchy in IV. I am sure a lot of us want to do some thing...posting 100 times to get noticed can't really be the best way to manage the ideas.
I got a feeling that some members feel that IV run a secret community with-in IV (I am not sure how many watched the movie "The Stepford Wives" ).
I think that core members and volunters knows strategy and action plan well before others. I think there would be hierarchy within that also.
I dont see anything wrong in that.
Here I think what goes on internally.. If you are more active in the threads you would sure get a message from IV moderators about ur willingness to volunteer. IV core seriously does not have the ability to read the psyches of each individaul member and invite them int to the secret soceity(?). Only possible way to know for them is how much active you are for a while. i dont think there are any specific paramters for that , it is a matter IV core getting convinced that u r serious enough. Not a day or two.. How long .. and how serious you are with ur ideas...
About funds .. none of the organizations declare their monetory dealings openly. There is a youtube video by logiclife on this. see it if u have not laready seen it.
Keep up the good work.. Sure you would become the member of secret soceity soon :).
I read sometime back nixtor became IV core member recently..

I did change two employers so far and going to invoke my AC21 next month. Just wondering how and why you guys did get denial.....
Let me know.
Thanks,

I saw lot of posts above saying good things about them however my experience with them has been bad. I am assumng this is Fragomen, Del Rey, Bernsen & Loewy, LLP we are talking about.
There have been a couple things in the past but the most frustrating one was that even though I sent them all my papers etc. by Jun 20th (so that they can file it on July 2nd) they did not file my case until Aug 08. They are my corporate lawyers so I don't have any choice. Also, they asked us not to contact regarding status during this period as they were really busy. While not responding to status queries was understandable, they still took more than a month to file cases. I confirmed with a lot of my colleagues who were in the same boat and were equally frustrated with noncommunication and taking so long to file the cases. They also were not maintaining any apparent first come first serve queue because there were several folks who got their filings done much sooner than others who had sent complete paperworks way before them.
Based on my experience, I wouldn't recommend them.

Your lawyer is lying.
Updates:
I got an email from my law firm, that my packet was refused to be accepted by USCIS.
I received the email from my law firm (Monday night - July 2) that:
Please note however your case was sent to Nebraska last night and did arrive - we tried!
Which means mine was sent or reached NSC sunday night or must have been hand delievered early Mon morning. Don't know exactly what happened. I just trust them!!!!
I didn't bother to ask my law firm further details. I will ping them first thing monday morning and try to give any update I get. I hope they have some proof of the refusal!!!!!!!............

Yeah, that's true if you're a white male or an immigrant. The rest can easily get on welfare/social security. I've seen dozens of examples over my 5 years of being a landlord. Well, many low-skilled immigrants abuse the system as well. So, it's bullshit, Jack Nicholson: in this country millions of people just got it without busting their a$$es.

More education generally does mean more skill. It does not always mean more pay, but this country has decided to use education and work experience as the criterion for EB category allocation.
You have put this in the best possible way. My allegiance to EB2 as I got my MS degree from US in Tech Major.

Advantages of applying AOS when PD is not current
1. No H1 extension needed (especially these days believe me its a nightmare)
2. No visa Stamping needed (BIG BIG Night mare)
3. spouse can work
4. Dont have to worry about LCA blaw blaw blaw. especially after seeing the recent arrests
5. during layoff do not have to start GC process (in this case AC21 can be used)
6. WE CAN CHANGE TO EAD WHEN ANTI IMMIGRANTS CRY ABOUT H1 AND IN THIS ECONOMY DO NOT SURPRISE IF H1 IS COMPLETELY SCRAPPED.
8. Can do two jobs at a time (in this economy its difficult, but this is possible if you are using EAD)
9. You can work for TARP Companies (There are about 360 bail out banks... so you can work for any of these banks if using EAD)
10. BIG ADVANTAGE... IF YOU ARE APPLYING EARLY IT IS VERY MUCH POSSIBLE FOR DHS/CIS TO DO ALL THE BACK GROUND CHECK/NAME CHECK WELL IN ADVANCE. AS AND WHEN A VISA # IS AVAILABLE, IT CAN EASILY BE ASSIGNED TO THE APPLICANT. THIS WAY CIS CAN BE EFFECIENT AND WILL NOT WASTE VISA's
11. More can be added to the list
Again I do support others who say that AC21 job titles clause should be relaxed... All I am saying is one step at a time and more over there is a compaign already in progress.
ALSO numbers really matter. There are lots and lots of my friends who are using AC21 with out any problem.
Seniors Please advice
Thanks a lot,
Kiran :)
I'm hoping this does come through. This is a great step and I'm surprised that the Secretary brought this up on her own. However, hydboy's point is true. This will be most useful if AC21 is honored by USCIS. Kiran's point about convenience for visa stamping doesn't move me. The biggest advantage of applying for AOS is being able to move jobs after 6months using AC21. Anyway, I guess it all depends on the numbers. How many people have had issues with AC21 versus how many have had no issues with AC21. Also in almost everything in life, the ones with negative experience will be more vocal than the the ones who've had a positive experience.

Speed of approval is not the problem. The NUMBERS are the problem. We saw that in June when so many ppl got approved.
To me "SKILLED & DIVERSITY" doesn’t make any sense. They should not go hand in hand.
