Agree completely !!!
Otherwise, It should be allowed to have PD based on my First Port of entry date ?
I still say that they should be allowed to port but should go back in line.
Thanks

Thanks Totoro.
Can Totoro (or anybody) answer this question?
We filed married filing joingly and received our tax returns and no stimulus rebate. Can we re-file our tax return by filing separately this year (i.e. extension/amendment within 3 months?) Has anyone done this? Please let me know.
I noticed that if you itemize your deductions, you dont loose much even if you file "married filing separately".
Thanks!
No you can't. You must have filed separately. You could have amended your return to file jointly, but not the other way around.

Why not you provide free lunch to your neighbor's every day? Over a period of time, those neighbor's will think it is their right to get Free lunch from you.
If you are a student and not earning, you have every right to request for free access. You claim to be Highly educated and earning and you still want free ride?
This was a smart reply.
People are so used to getting everything for free.
The starter of this thread never did anything all this while and when he has not got his greencard, he thinks he has the right to blame IV for his problems in life.

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.
Main reasons for restrictions in legal immigration are
1. Organised compaign by anti immigrants with data. They proved that H1b persons were paid 20% below the market rate. There is no defence from orgainised compaign by pro immigrants. Pro immigrants gave the statement that shortage of skilled workers but they were not able to give supporting data. Newspaper stories are not enough
2. Reaching h1b cap in 2 days gave negative picture instead of positive. Mostly consulting companies rushed to get h1b without valid job positions
3. Instead of asking reasonable numbers Corporations and pro immigrants asked exemptions in H1b numbers and green card numbers. They want to make sure that unlimited numbers so that they can hire or fire anyone.
4. Immigrants are suffering by backlogs and they are expressed by IV and Lawyers. But that is not enough to justify immigration. That should be justified with real need for welfare of country
5. 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.
6. Some Indian consulting companies exploited the situation by just hiring H1bs not even trying to recruit US workers even if they available. But some Indian companies like TCS,Infosys started hiring US workers nowadays because of shortage of H1b.
H1b persons are considered as best skilled persons so Companies can afford to pay 5000 or even 10000$. Infact H1b persons should be paid 20% above US workers as they are considered as better than US workers. That is the reason for raising the fees by two thirds of Senators

Prince,
You will be fine as per the rules. Just make sure you hire a very capable and reputed attorney, just in case the one you have isnt the best. I faced something like this, with 140, and went to one of the big firms we quote many times here and the case was approved with an MTR in just 20 days.. DOnt loose heart. But make sure you do the documentation whatever is needed and make no compromises there. Provide more thats relevant.

You guys are doing a good job. My question is.... will 252 contributions / month be enough to support the new initiative??
Guys can each one of us get one more member this month by calling few friends ????????????????????????????????????????
Is there a way we can have access to the tel no. of non contributing members ?????????????????
The target is 1000. IV core group is not asking for funds now because we have done all we could to make our case and we have reached a ceiling. Now, it has to come from the heart of the members and if they feel we are doing the right thing they will contribute. We had all kinds of nasty posts whenever we /members started asking for contributions. Yes it will help when you call your friends. No we dont have phone numbers. Only few people put their phone numbers in their profiles. most register annonymously and a lot of nasty posts come from such members. Despite repeated requests most members have not updated their profile with contact information.

my friend.. thanx for your kind words
u and ur non-retrogressed friend have my support for an expedited process since u got US advanced degree that make u better suited for this market.. u should be talking STEM.. i am talking about the disparity in available opportunities to come here back in our homelands. Individual examples aside, I trust statistics, you'll find that each year a handful of giant offshoring companies grab more than half the H1 quota.. is it my streotyping imagination that infosys, wipro and satyam don't hold job fairs in Romania and they only make these opportunities available in retrogressed countries? and don't give me the condescending excuse that if these companies only hire in retrogressed companies then talented, educated people must only exist in the retrogressed countries.
Anyway, i had this discussion many times here .. radical issue where people hardly change their minds..
peace..
Thank you. You seem like a rational person who is balanced in arguments. I can give you real life examples too. Let me start with that. In 2005 I and my friend from a non-retrogressed country graduated with a masters, same degree same specialization.
Now THAT is over-generalization. You think all of us Indians and Chinese get jobs as soon as we graduate in giant offshoring cos? My friend you're stereotyping. It is wrong to assume that we get our jobs because of our nationality and not our skills.
Anyway, continuing with my example. My friend and I both found jobs after a few months of struggle in small boutique consulting companies (run by Americans), mind you no offshoring. In fact my friend's sponsor is Indian, my sponsor is American!
Very subjective. My own example, none of my fellow-graduates were in the plight.
Yup. Standing your turn in line is fair. And that's what needs to change. EB visas are about skills and not nationality.
You need to quit stereotyping and being unfair to us by saying we get jobs because of our nationalities. Brother, you don't get degrees or jobs because you're Indian or Chinese, but because you add value.

My company went through a 10% workforce reduction company-wide just when my PERM application was ready to be filed. Although nobody from my group has been affected, 2 people with the same job title from a different group in the same office were affected. Their job descriptions are entirely different. I have about a year and a half before my H1B expires. I would appreciate anybody answering the following questions I have:
1. In Form 9089, should the answer to Item 26 be 'No' since nobody in my group or area of expertise was affected?
2. If the answer to Item 26 should be 'Yes', is it sufficient to notify and consider the people laid off? I am confident that they will not qualify for the position. How long should this 'notification and interview' period typically be?
3. I have heard that my company can be sent an audit notice. In such a case, is it sufficent to justify that the area of expertise is different. What is the success rate for this?
4. If the audit response is rejected, what happens then? I have been told that the employee will have to return to his home country immediately and cannot refile his PERM application.

TOP 5 Excuses
1) Participating in the rally may jeopardize my position
Completely baseless. Rally is being organized after due permission from authorities. Further more IV designated volunteers will be there to ensure it's conducted smoothly. We will not be doing anything that provokes Americans like carrying our National Flags or incendiary slogans and dishonoring of American flags as seen during the rallies of 'undocumented aliens'. We will only be carrying IV approved banners which will not contain anything offensive.
Freedom of Speech/Expression and right to petition are constitutionally guaranteed rights, even to non-citizens. No one can use that against you. No one deport you for participating in a peaceful rally. All of us are highly educated people who don't have a propensity to indulge in violence and/or property damage witnessed during other protests.
2) Rallies are bad. Bad things may happen at a Rally
Perception is a result of our experience with so-called 'Rallies' back home and some here that turn violent. The primary reason for such lawlessness being the nature of participants - uneducated and/or unemployed anti-social elements. Also the political nature of such rallies, conducted by the opposition to inconvenience the incumbent government.
IV rally will be peaceful, as the participants are highly educated, well-employed people with families. Also IV is conducting the rally to petition the government to change rules and not to bring down/change the government.
If you need a precedent, we have the Flower protests and SJ rally , both conducted peacefully in a professional manner. In fact a cop even expressed admiration for the way IV protesters conducted themselves, orderly and peacefully.
3) People who do rallies are good-for-nothings who don't have a better thing to do. I might become an object of ridicule if I participate in one and people find about it. People might think I'm crazy.
Far from truth. Everyone's gainfully employed people just like you. We aren't different from anyone else, except that we have decided to fight for our common cause based on the understanding that strength lies in unity and numbers.
People ridiculing others is as old human habit as Columbus himself. Many ridiculed Columbus when he set sail for India. If he had backtracked, there wouldn't be America and we wouldn't be here.
If fighting for what's right is crazy, yes, I'm crazy. If standing upto fight for my career and my family is crazy, yes, I'm crazy. However, only a little more than people who expect to recieve GC in 2 years, without anybody doing anything to change the situation.
4) There is no reason for the Rally. The situation will remedy itself. In the recent past people have received GC in 2-4 years and so shall I. ( Do-Nothings)
Harking back to good ol' science textbooks, let me remind you of Newton's First law of motion - 'Every body [ EB immigrants] will continue in a state of rest or uniform motion [ retrogression] unless acted upon by an external force [IV actions] to change it'. Newton understood it centuries ago. We need to understand it now.
Situation was different in the recent past as thousands were caught hopelessly in BECs. There was no FBI check. No I-140 backlogs. No 485 frontlogs and backlogs. There weren't 300,000 to 500,000 applications pending for AOS.
5) Rally will not succeed. Even if does succeed, my non-participation will not make a difference.
Numbers make all the difference, in a democracy. When a politician sees a crowd, the thing that runs foremost in his mind is 'Votes'. More the merrier (the reason why undocumented aliens being 12 million are treated on priority basis compared to less numerical EB migrants).
When a senator/congressman is faced with a thousand 'Future American Citizens' ( so called 'Americans in Waiting') - he has two choices antagonize by ignoring them or help them achieve their goals. Any sane politician will opt for the latter, when those thousand future votes could mean the difference between re-election vs. defeat.
That's why it's important to show up in good numbers. If we approach them individually, they may and for all purposes will ignore us. But if we show up in good numbers, we will make them rethink their position and encourage to take more pro-immigrant positions.
Though, it might seem one or two absentees don't make much of a difference, in real life it does. These ones and twos are the ones that add upto to great numbers. If we miss out on these ones and twos, we might never reach the numbers we intend to. So it's very important for every one of us to participate.

If that could happen i would say sort it by PD irrespective of EB1/EB2/EB3 or country of birth. Juistice for all !
Normalization among EB categories can indeed happen today under current laws for some of the candidates . Unfortunately, the normalization across country of birth cannot happen under the given laws(don't know if Divorce+marriage can help).
I am all for normalization across countries ...till that is possible let's use the opportunity for normalization among EB categories .
Contrary to your earlier post , it will NOT lead to herding

Gurus,
I applied for tax return with my cousin as dependent. I am H1B on a project working for MNC, spouse in H4 and my cousin is doing his MS on F1. Since my wife has only ITIN, my understanding is that there is NO stimulus payment for me and my cousin will loose his $300 as he is claimed as dependent. last week, my cousin got a letter from dept of treasury that his stimulus payment is on the way and sure enough, couple of days later, a check for $300 is waiting for him.
Is this normal that a person with a SSN who filed his return as dependent get stimulus benefit? just checking if anyone else got one like this.. does this mean I can expect $300 for myself being on H1B with SSN also?
thanks for any suggestions..

We should not waste our time and money on this. I also would like to understand the lobbying impact of IV. After hearing tech lobby brought CA governor into picture and even that does not make any difference in favor of tech companies, are we making any impact with 200-300 thousand lobbying and some web faxes?
There is no question about IV effort. But the question I have is impact of that effort.
Per this article..tech lobby seems to had had its impact. Expanded H1B & reducing GC backlog ...before points system takes effect. All this of course if the CIR comes back.

That doesn't mean nothing is being done. I am continuing to do a lot of work on this, but there is nothing new to post right now.
To date I have been able to get every newspaper in the country to do stories on this, as well as three scathing editorials in the NY Times, LA Times, and Mercury News, all of which slammed the government for its action.
I have worked with the staff of a member of Congress to ensure that house representatives were aware of the issue.
As a result, the house of representatives unanimously passed the HEART Act giving stimulus payments to affected soldiers overseas.
I have been able to get an important legal organization to review and research the topic for possible litigation.
I would love to go over the legal details with you, but it is not prudent to give too much detail here right now.
And finally, I have been corresponding with immigrants like you providing advice and updates on the situation.
I am not sure what more you expect.
You have been doing a great job. Please keep it up. Have a nice weekend and relax.
