We heard so many stories about violation many Indian bodyshoppers like bench without pay,Low pay ,fake resumes and many more. But when any bill comes to control them we are opposing. Because we fear that we may be one of the persons working in those companies and may be impacted by that.
Certainly the bill is not a pro immigrant and anti immigrant bill. But some kind of restriction is needed to clean out H1b. I accept as a pro immigrant we have to oppose any anti immigrant bill. So I am sure IV will try to block the bill as they did the restriction in TARP.
I am not going to get any benefit if they shut the door behind me. I need just one job that I can get any time and whatever compettion and there is no need to shut thousands of people. So my views are not based on any personal ambition.
I am seeing some positives in the bill. Wages will increase for the H1bs also. Only genuine companies can do the business. Best and bright people will not be impacted by this. Also it can open opportunity to increase H1b Cap and Green card Cap. So there is a good possiblity to reduce or eliminate retrogession.
Basically there are two options for IV and other pro immigrants if the bill is considered serously. One is just oppose the bill and try to block completely. Or other option is to negotiate to include our agenda to recapture/increase GC and also to modify the portions of bill. Instead of failing with option 1 getting success in option 2 is better.
I think this bill will not be passed if it is against WTO trade regulations.
senthil1 is one of those who is "shut the door behind you" kinds folks. He has been consistent on his stand and he wants to side anti immigrants. He is a disgrace and shame to your community. I had a feeling that sometime back he was 'reformed criminal" but does not seem so anymore.

This is the note I send them when I m in the call and Prakash noticed this and read this on the call . I m happy that major issue got noticed because there are lot of questions which are not related to receipt delays
Just to answer your question . Most callers are July 2nd applications who have not received the receipts ..where as others who filed in August are receving EAD's . This is why we are here . We can send n examples regarding this

Hi All,
My friend whose PD is Dec 30 2004 - EB2 - Texas got his approval email. But he is already in india and travelling back this Oct 12th.
He already has valid Advanced Parole with him.
He wants to if there are any issues for him to enter at port of entry?
Any documents or print out of approval etc to be carried with him?
Does he needs to tell the office that his GC got approved?
Please help.
no trouble he can simply re-enter on advance parole. no need to carry any proof of approval of GC

did you get yours without CPO mail ? My case is same. No CPO, though got approval/decision emails and approval snail mail.
I got the CPO email first. In another days 6 days got welcome mail. Then the status changed back to post decision activity. 5 days from there, I got the cards. Even today the status says the same.

Guys,
I am not sure what others are doing, but as somebody said a flower campaign to the guys who support us may go against us, but I think that shoudl be sent to those who dont support.
I have written twice in the last week and today I am sending cards with a letter.
One simple way of sending very short messages is "I am EB3-India and due to to non-availablility of visas, I am going back to INdia". And tell your qualifications. This is the same story even with PhD holders in US whose job desc doesnt qulaify for EB2 or EB1. No offense any others, as I know many others got experience while some got education.
This is in fact true with 5 of my friends who left in 2007 just before that visa bulletin. They had good offers and they did not want to wait for the US GC.
Just send the loud message" UNLESS YOU DO SOMETHING, WE ARE GOING BACK.". Send the message in different ways.
And ofcors good to meet personally.
Sri.

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,
Srini

Same is the case here.
Opened a SR on 10Aug2010 and got my CPO mail just today. Although I was very sceptic about following up with USCIS by opening SR etc, now I think it definitely helps. I did not get to speak to an IO or escalate my call to a supervisor, but it still worked. Until I opened SR, nothing was happening and my case status which I was checking 5-6 times a day, remained static with no LUD/HUDs.
So, my recommendation to all those whose dates are current is to at least open a SR so that someone at USCIS looks at your file. If everything is OK and the case is pre-adjudicated, then approval will come through. Also, my guess is they have already allocated a Visa number for all those cases that are current (reason- Dates did not move too much forward in September Visa Bulletin). Good luck to everyone waiting. I am sure your turn will come very soon, but at least open a SR to expedite it somehow.

What part of DOS statement
"All numbers available to these categories under the FY-2007 annual numerical limitation have been made available. "
do you not understand ?
2007 quota is used up. We need to wait until OCT for 2008 quota. :(

Sathesh,
According to the below websites, seems it is the Immigrant's Final application and processing fee(and seems like your immigrant visa has been approved by USCIS*** according to http://www.americanlaw.com/consul_iv.html
"In April of 1994, DOS opened the NVC, a permanent immigrant visa processing facility in Portsmouth, NH. NVC processes all approved immigrant petitions that it receives from USCIS. NVC will retain the petitions until the cases are ready for adjudication by a consular officer abroad. When an applicant's case is about to become current, the petition is forwarded to the appropriate U.S. embassy or consulate overseas. " ***

Worst advice I have seen so far. It is morons w/ no scruples like you that have brought us into the mess we are in...
Shame on you!
Do things in this order -
1. Find a job first.
2. Secure a good apartment at new job's location.
3. If you need a better car buy one right now.
4. Get some credit cards.
5. Let your home go to foreclosure.
It is a financial decision. Every once in a while, most of us go to different stores and ask them to match the price for the item that we had purchased earlier. If they do not match the price then we return that item. Don't we? Do not get sentimental. Just walk off! Your credit history would get screwed but if you plan it the way I said above, you will be fine. Good luck.
And it won't affect your GC.

Look at sections 312, 313 and 311 (H1b cap). Looks like cap will be removed for science, tech, math etc...and maybe for families as well, + cap is going up. So overall very very good news...or am I seeing things?
