Sri,
You are putting in great efforts. Thank you very much for the same. Highly appreciated.
Unless the baby cries and asks for food, mother does not feed the baby. Similarly congress will provide relief only if we ask for it.
Jungalee,

I think the company should be filing the fees but lawyers fee for filing is not their liability. Hi Folks,
In many of the articles and forums I have read that applicants spent a lot of money on medical exams, lawyer fees, and so on towards the Employee based Green Card application.
Is it legal for one to spend money (out of one's own pocket) towards getting employee based green card ?
From what I had hear from my company's legal department was that they cannot take any money from me towards the green card application as it is not legal. Employee Based Green Card is for Employer's benefit and not employee's....though it eventually helps the employee -:)
Any comments ?

read that form carefully
as an EB-2 you DO NOT need it
then read the I-485, says excatly the same thing
you cxan add all the evidence you wat, that's fine
but it is not set forth as a requireemnst, in fact it's clearly excluded for EB petitioners.
So you mean that EB2 petitioners are not required to file affidavit of support (either I 134 or I 864) at all for their spouse who are on H4 visa....

This prediction business is done just to derive satisfaction of doing something towards a goal. This is especially true when one can do very little to get to that goal and it all depends on many other factors. Yet predicting the PD is not a bad endeavor by itself. That being said, predicting PD is not an easy math without knowing the PD of the last pending application in a category with the CIS and many other numbers. If I am right, I believe even the DoS and CIS have trouble with it.
This what one Mr. Oppenheim says, "This situation will allow me to advance the India EB-2 cut-off date for May". That is it. So the PD will move in May unlike in the past when it moved in June/July/August in a FY. My understanding at this point is that there is no way to predict what will happen to the PD in May VB. THere are just not enough precise numbers available to do that. The May VB may come on 8th April and the numbers that are accounted for in it might be as close as 1st April'11. We do not have that number with us.

You read my mind.
Guys,
Also I have analyzed that people who have a date in 2008 somehow predict that the dates might move to 2008 and people who have a PD of July predict that dates will move to August . This is just an observation and nothing more , and if you go through the threads thats exactly what you will see.

There are lots of ideas how to resolve the immigration problem. And this problem has many aspects. The retrogression/GC certification mess is just one of those problems and definitely not the biggest one of the bunch.
If we want to help ourselves (i.e. GC applicants stuck in the backlog centers and retrogression trap), we have to have a clear strategy what to pursue and by what means. In opinion, there are two things which would be helpful to our cause in a short run:
1. Representing our case to the American public via the mass media - one of the participants here clearly indicated that proper presentation of our case by 20/20, 60 min etc would be a great help.
2. Launching a class law suit against the American government about return of Social Security funds to legal aliens who do not became permanent residents and leave the country. Regardless of the reason why they have left the country - this is their money !
I am aware there is no enogh time to organize and complete both events before March 27th but it worth try. And it would be good if the idea of a class law suit "slips" away to the mass media and the lawmakers before this date. Money is a very powerful factor.
And, btw, do not close yourselves in a "race-abused" group (Indians-Chinese-Filipinos) and do not draw a line between this "group" and the rest of the immigrants. It is big mistake - I am from a country that is not in this group and I feel that dividing people by their race is wrong. I am sure that many other like me think this way. Do not help the "race" issue grow, try to exstinguish it...

I understand your point. But this is exactly what anti-immigrants complain about H1Bs. ( depressing wages, outsourcing etc)
It is interesting that we are using anti-immigrant's arguments to pin L1s.
Thats NOT the key here ... its about violating current laws and regulations, do what ever you want offshore/outsource/onshore ...what ever, violating the rules and act of fraud is NOT ACCEPTABLE in any circumstances and we are pretty sure that ICE/USCIS and other agencies would have the same view.

I was asking for Ideas.. it is not just Kumar or some more people giving an idea that one should leave the house if the value of the house has gone down and now you have to move because of ur job and it is hard selling ur house where u may have to bear a loss ..
I already had conversation with american people ( not any desi's) in my office and they also had the same opinion as to leave a house if u have to leave because of job..
U tell me how wise it is to give a loan to a person without a down payment..The reason i said that other people are stupid is because.. i took an ARM loan of 5 years,, where i knew that i am not going to live in the house for more than 3 years and will later sell it..and there are people who knew that they are going to stay in the same house for more than their ARM period.. but didnt realize that they wont be able to make payment once the rate is re-adjusted.. i am calling those people's decision as stupid..
about me making a bad decision about buying a house.. well not 2 years ago..
i can sell the house for a loss of may be 20,000.. but why should i pay that money from my pocket.. i can keep that in my savings account and use it in my bad time..
Well you seem to have same attitude problem as others in this situation. When people were making profit they were thankful, and now banks/system is there to blame.
Let's see how you are not different from those "stupid" people. Keyword here is "greed". You got greedy and bought house bcoz it will appreciate. People who knew they will be living for more than 5 yrs got ARM bcoz they have to pay less/month(max. leverage), house will appreciate and/or they can refinance when time comes. Do you see any similarity ??? So please stop using derogatory words like "stupid". Banks were lending bcoz they were greedy. All the parties have one thing in common greed.
Ok, coming back to your case. I do not have any experience with foreclosure. From your post it seems like you are losing $20k. Well this does not seem a very big amount. Consider the impact of foreclosure, bad credit will mean you will not get any loan. It will be tough to get auto or any other credit. You carry risk with background checks. I think the lending standards will get tough going forward which means you don't know for how long you will not qualify for home. In my opinion, if you have 20k and it is matter of losing some savings, not going to foreclosure looks better option.
I hope you will learn to own up to your own mistakes, it will only make you better person in life. Good luck.

My father tried to get a Non Availability certificate but they told since the birth is registered they can't issue one and that they also won't change the name...:mad: (after the incident where that MP tried to sneak people into Canada they are very strict it seems)

They will pay a smaaaaaaaall amount to delivery guys who will strip all notes and that's it. Or they could say "it's gov. necessity' to remove a message from bucket, and it will be free. :(

He left his old company before 5 year. when he joined his current company he has provided all the document mentioned in checklist such as offer letter, exp and releiving letter and last two month pay stub and they did BG for same document.During 5 years career he worked for diff client and everytime they did BG for him before putting him in project and there was no problem happen in his BG. recently his current employer find something wrong about his prior company and they asked him to provide more evidance for prior company.now he don't have any contact of his prior employer and he does not have any more evidnace for showing their company.
Because of this reason they are asking him to come back home country from last two week.He told his company that he tryed to connect his prior employer but he can not make out and he don't have anything more to show the company.
Please suggest what he can do in this situation.

yes it is(both about work and supervision), read the pdf.
The L-1 Reform Act amends previous legislation by addressing the issue of “outsourcing.” L-1B temporary workers can no longer work primarily at a worksite other than their petitioning employer if the work will be controlled and supervised by a different employer or if the offsite arrangement is essentially to provide labor for hire, rather than service related to the specialized knowledge of the petitioning employer. This limitation will apply to all L-1B petitions filed with USCIS on or after June 6, 2005. This includes extensions and amendments involving individuals currently in L-1 status.
as IV community we must be against these violations. We must support only the compliance L1B.
Sir, the question is not
Who actually controls the work?
the question is
Who actually controls the L1 person by directly managing him/her?
big difference.

Hi Guys,
I am pretty new to the forum (as a member), I have been browsing the same for quite some time and found it a good source of information regarding immigration related activities. Right now I am getting removed from my project as one of the top 3 Indian outsourcing firm is dumping their L1 resources at my client site and replacing all the citizens, GCs, EADs, H1 etc. These resources are used in projects managed and controlled by my client (most of them are consulting assignments) and these resources are used on java/.net/oracle projects, these two are violations of L1 visa restrictions set by USCIS, I want to know how and where to complain against this violation and we have all evidence to prove the same (project documents, time sheets, work assignments etc). Please let me know exactly and to which agencies we should complain.
Thanks in Advance,

Will you guys stop this madness atleast now?. If US started bending rules for people who send flowers, then everyone will try to manipulate the system. There is a lot of difference between the circumstances of originla gandhigiri and now. :rolleyes: That was our country back then, for crying out loud.We are in a foriegn country and the issuance of visa a previlege not a right.Why cant you guys understand this simple fact?. Now stop making fools of yourself and get a life.
That USCIS director gave a good answer. Is your pain more than those citizens of this country who gave their limbs and life for US?. :eek:
BTW, i am one of the guys who couldn't file I-485 because of this fiasco. But i understand the reality.:)
The British made us feel in the hey days that living in our own country was a previlege extended by their administration...even in that environment...Gandhigiri worked....but not without several initial failures..and Gandhi himself had acknowledge that non-violent resistence can succeed even against hitler but not without several initial failures...
The fact that we could get Mr. Gonzalez to even respond to the flower campaign itself speaks that Gandhigiri has worked...the publicity that this will generate will be of immense help....

good point.
We need to track the H1b approval date and the service center that approved it.
For those who don't know, the first three letters of the receipt number in you I-797 H-1b approval notice indicates the service center.
Like SRC is Texas, EAC is Vermont, LIN is nebraska and CSC for california.
Please include this info too.
what about WAC? (I have WAC.)
