Thanks gbof and Anil for replying...
I raised SR on Aug 12th..No Response Yet...
Infopass appointment said that my file got assigned to Examination officer on Aug 4th...Not sure if Examination Officer and IO are same or not...
But the real kicker is i got second FP on July 26th, 2010 for Code 1...I didnt see any LUD after second FP...I am guessing this is where i am stuck with second time name check or back ground check verifications...
Also is it good to go for DHS 7001 form right way...i mean ombudsman request...
Donot worry about FP....2nd FP is not absolute must.....there are too many approvals without 2fp. Just hold on and you will get the mail outta blue.
BTW: I had 3 FPs, in sep07, june09 and dec09. They had somehow alloted 2A#s and each generated fp. Finally, they consolidated A#s.....Hopefully, my next posting 'll be after I get cards in hand (hopefully, those are waiting for me in my mail-box, today) this evening :D:D

If USCIS is providing spillover visas to EB2 in May, shouldn't the PDs of China and India (countries with most demand) have the same PDs in May VB? Doesn't this also mean that in the worst case the PD of EB2 India will be Jul 22 2006 (the current PD of China) in May VB?
-CinBoy
First they will move India to July 22 2006, if there are more visa numbers both I/C will move togather.

In War on the Middle Class (http://www.amazon.com/War-Middle-Class-Government-Business/dp/0670037923) Lou Dobbs says H1B workers don't pay taxes.
However, H-1B workers are legally required to pay the same taxes as any other US resident, including Social Security and Medicare9 (Publication 519 (2006) (http://www.irs.gov/publications/p519/index.html), U.S. Tax Guide for Aliens). Some H-1B workers are not eligible to receive any Social Security or Medicare benefits unless they are able to adjust status to that of permanent resident. However, if their country of citizenship has a tax agreement with the United States, they are able to collect the Social Security they've earned even if they don't gain permanent residency.
In some cases, H-1B workers pay higher taxes than a US citizen because they are not entitled to certain deductions (eg. head of household deduction amongst many others).
Indian techie slams CNN Lou Dobbs! (http://www.indiadaily.com/editorial/10-28a-04.asp) By N. Sivakumar, October 28, 2004
In a book titled "Dude, did I steal your job? Debugging Indian Computer programmers", the author, an Indian software engineer, has slammed Lou Dobbs of CNN for calling the foreign high-tech workers as non-tax payers, and humiliating the enormous contributions of foreign high-tech workforce to the American economy.
"Foreign high-tech workers who come here on H-1B / L1 visas pay every tax that U.S. citizens do, including Social Security and Medicare. But if they return to their homeland, then they will not get any benefits from these programs. The recent recession cost the United States more than half a million foreign high-tech workers who had to return home after paying all these taxes. In fact, Americans owe them money"
The author writes.
"The ignorance to mention the stupendous contributions of immigrant high-tech workers was the primary cause for the anti-Indian atmosphere which is seen among computer professionals lately. Unfortunately, neither the media nor the public understand the foreign high-tech workforce. The net result: those who supported the foreign high-tech worker programs have taken a back seat to play safe, and Indians and others who came here on visas, and worked their butts off to make this country prosper are named 'slaves', 'dummies', and 'enemies'. writes the author, N.Sivakumar.
The book also claims that bringing in foreign high-tech workforce at the right time was the primary reason for America's stupendous high-tech success, and gives statistics and evidence to prove that hadn't America acted quickly, the Europeans would have taken over the software dominance.
The book also outlines the life, struggle and achievements of Indian programmers in America with entertaining facts, and is a prime discussion topic in many anti-outsourcing and immigration websites lately.

I know that is ACT. But USCIS can interpret the provisions and make adjustments like what we are requesting. Similarly it can , IF THEY WANT TO, include a provision saying the job not only need to be in similar field, but it shall be in the same labor market because that is where you got your labor. I am not saying this is going to happen just because IVs effort.
If the intent of the similar job requirement is not to hurt the local talent because that is that job that is advertised for, the restriction of the same labor market will serve the same purpose.
That is a legitimate doubt and concern for some.
Chandu, I have great respect for your enthusiasm , but why do you have to be so hostile to a person that does not seem to think the way you are thinking. Different people react differently for the same news. I am not sure your rant has any back ground with any other post by the people you are pissed off about ;)
And the above answers concerns some may have and shuts them up. Shouting at them definitely will not help any body's cause. What has getting a GC to do with how you raise your children ?
Since when this immigration is a BIG issue in USA...... remember the BIG Rally ?? Some of the efforts with positive intentions may have a negative consequences in the short term or a long term.
The reason I post those strong words is because negative posters seem to influence people's decisions a lot. An example is , right during the rally time, I had negative people calling my wife and frightening her about the rally. She was always confused, and did not understand if she wants to support me for my efforts on mobilization or listen to them. It took a while for us to overcome her confusion. Negative posts and negative influence impact and hinder our efforts a lot. We do not need anti immigrants to cause damage, these negative posters do more damage than anti immigrants. One negaitve post can influence many people, as such it is very difficult to draw people for a good cause these days, people just do not want to cooperate or just are not motivated, negative posters demotivate the fence sitters.
If people are positive and cooperative they influence positively, they set an example for others to follow and that is what all the positive folks do, no matter what the negative influencers say or do, positive people always remain positive and try to guide people through examples.
"needhelp" is a good example of positive motivation - she does everything she can to set an example - if people learn from her - that is what we want
walking_dude - motivates people - dedicated to the cause
Above are positive examples

rsharma, l1fraud,
There is nothing wrong in reporting fraud.
However your argument that you are reporting it since you cannot tolerate fraud isn't that convincing.
If you were always against injustice/lawlessness, you will see a lot of it in your daily life. Do you report or take action against each of those ? I don't think so.
After living in India for long and seeing people put up with all injustice and sometimes doing it themselves, it is hard to believe your argument that you are doing it just for the sake of law.
I am not saying that we are reporting fraud just for the sake of not tolerating it. This is effecting our GC. Earlier the effect was related to the job being taken away now it is effecting our GC too.
Initially L1s were sponsored only by large offshore companies like TCS, WIPRO etc.. The effect was that the jobs were taken away. But it did not have much effect on the GC side as most of these large offshore companies do not process GC for their employees.
But nowadays lots of small Offshore companies started doing L1As. These companies do not have lots of clients like TCS or WIPRo but they have a handfull of clients. So to make sure they have their clients they started bringing people in L1As and processing GC under EB1 for them. Although many of these people are developers and should be in EB3 and should be behind in the line. But as they are in L1A and are appling in Eb1 they are getting GC in no time and also taking the visa#s away. There are hunderes of these small offshore companies started getting people in L1As. Thus these EB1 Visa #s are not overflowing to EB2. This is effecting our GC.
Now we have :
1. Large offshore companies sponsored L1s taking the jobs
2. The small offshore companies sponsored L1s taking the GC visa #s.
If the L1As are indeed senior Manager then no problem, but the Developers/Business Analyst/ Project Manager without hire-fire authority are getting GC under EB1.
Thus these frauds should be reported so that at least the # of EB1 visas are not taken by fraud.
So you too can see how this fraud is effecting us all.

For an employment-based petition, in order to proceed and be valid, they need to still INTEND to be employed by the sponsoring employer if and when they get their green card. The employer however, does not need to sign any forms per se with relation to the adjustment petition. If the alien is currently working for the sponsoring employer (on H-1B or other) he or she can port or transfer employers without penalty or without losing the
green card process 180 days after they file the I-485 petition. At that point, they can change employers and work for whomever they wish (provided they have a valid work permit)
I have an employment-based petition and I'm presently unemployed. From what I understand, the sponsoring employer can hire me when I get my green card. So, when I get my EAD, which is most probably in 3 months, can I use it to work for whomever I wish?

Actually I thought they will not accept flowers. But for courtesy and humanity touch they are forwarding. Because of these atleast flowers have some purpose without wastage. This campaign will not have any impact on functioning of USCIS as they are following law. These mistakes are common in every Government organisations and time time mistakes are being corrected. Even congressional hearing happens and finds mistake they will prevent future mistakes like this. It is unlikely for affected persons to get relief immediately. But Many persons will get relief automatically on oct 2007 when DOS sets Cutoff date. I expect cut off date for EB3 2003 or 2004 and for EB2 2005.
I just felt that they did something that most people would not understand. I think the mess today is the result of a series of missteps they took. They not only mismanaged the whole green card thing but also mismanaged the public relations. Hopefully, they have learned from all these dramas. :cool:

Today is my day. After 13 years into this country, finally I am green. I tried SR, Senator help, infopass without much help. 2 days ago when called, Texas POJ, one nice IO told me case is not yet assigned to officer, will send email, looks like worked this time. BUT this could be just incidental. Thanks IV. I have updated the profile. I only received the email, no text message.
Yahoooooooooooooooo.

Here is a suggestion, who ever decides to join Vonage now, can use a referral link from one of the member, who is already a vonage customer, so that he can get 2 months off. Now the member who got 2 months off, can either donate two months bill amount or one month (if he choose to retain one month off) to forum.;)
What do u guys think?
Infact not only this, we can use any other similar referral programs, like Direct TV 100 offer etc..

Is this for a job?
According to I-9 form, employers can't discriminate based on EAD. There are some exception where they require security clearance for the jobs.
You might want to remind CapitalOne of this anti-discrimination notice on I-9 or bring it to the notice of USCIS.
Yes, it is for a job which does NOT require security clearance.
Is there a formal way / method to let the company and USCIS know of such discrimination ? Any published guidelines from USCIS ?

I checked some family based data and Date jumps 2-3 years once in a 2-3 year period and NVC gets enough files to work on for next 2-3 years , so dates moves slowly for next 2-3 years. USCIS learned lesson from July 2007 and may follow same approach what NVC do.
They might go upto 2008 or 2009 in advance this year or next year so they have almost 20-30 k Eb2 cases on hand which can last for year or two. USCIS needs some new cases to work on. All pre adjudicated cases are ready for approval so chances are there they can advance date so that they can get enough cases for next year's spill over quota.

My case is at the local USCIS service center. I opened an SR on Aug 12 and got an email response encouraging me to apply for an Infopass appointment: "We have determined that your case would have a better result if you make an appointment to visit your local office, so you may speak with an Immigration Services Officer about your case."
I now have an Infopass booked. Let's see what happens. My case is pre-adjudicated since we had an interview two years ago.
Should it go any further this way, can anyone please explain the process of Ombudsman / Congressman / Senator et al?
Thanks in advance.
