With a due respect, I am differ with your statement on Competeamerica. Competeamerica has always promoted H1B and EB provision together. I haven't seen any time that they promoted only H1B.
I spoke with one guy at Competeamerica and he told me that IV is neutral on H1B issue eventhough all members have came through that root. Personally I am very positive with Competeamerica and it is not good for us to speak negative for this organization.
As the saying goes �the proof is in the pudding" anybody can give statements but it is the results that matter. What results has compete america achieved, they are just giving lip service. Contrast them with the health industry lobby which has achieved results year after year. Compete america ultimate goal is more h1b which they will achieve one way or the other.
Don�t get me wrong, I am not saying compete america is bad, I am just saying there focus is on H1b and not as much on EB relief. If they face a hypothetical situation where they can get either H1 or EB, they would gladly choose h1, that�s the bottom line. Its better to have somebody like compete america rather than nobody, but we need a corporate lobby whose main focus is eb relief.
And there is an important lesson to be learned from the health industry lobby. They just did not say they want CIR or skil and then went back when both cir and skil failed. They started chipping away at individual items like 50000 visas for Schedule A last year and 90000 this year from unused\recaptured visas. We should also be asking for our individual line item, 485 measure. This is how a war is won, one battle at a time. It is unrealistic to have an "all or nothing" attitude that people opposing 485 measure have. If the health industry lobby had such "all or nothing" attitude they would not have got the 50000 visas last year nor would they have been trying to get the 90000 this year. Hope we learn from them.

Oh...Comm'On you seems completely sold onto typical propaganda now.
Lets just keep the Rep and Dem propaganda lines aside. You and me are non-citizens without a vote so we can afford to be on the sideline and have an impartial opinion. Now with that attitude think about the two contenders. I liked some aspects in both, McCain seemed like a great guy with a great story (POW et al) I liked the way he initially backed CIR even though most of his party men opposed it; I liked the way he started supporting Bush when everyone else in the world is hating him and gave the support for troop increase. But of late his campaign has become sleaziest...all lies. They took one vote of Obama out of context and say that his only contribution to education is sex education in KG. They showed Obama as the reason for increasing gas prices etc. Even I can see how idiotic these claims are and McCain is still supporting them. Then his whole equation with Bush - he is using his connections for fund raising and accepting his support but publicly acts as if he is running against Bush. This whole republican propaganda machine projecting Palin as next best thing in US politics is laughable. She does not have any experience and whatever little experience she has - she seems to have abused it. Well she does look good and seems to have fired up their cadre - that is good enough for them. Of all McCain's shortcomings - his choice of VP is most horrible - its a purely political choice. Nobody is complaining about women voting her (actually none of women's organizations vote her as her extreme right wing opinions) - the problem is republicans wants people to stop thinking about ISSUES and think who is reposible for this state and think about who is better to solve them - they just want people to think about pigs, lipstick, moose, sex, kindergarten, etc and vote enmasse to Palin (note they gave up on McCain already that is why this sensationalism on a VP).
Obama side - yes he is inexperienced (and infact I liked Hillary during primaries) but atleast he is running a very honorable campaign and convention. He is atleast talking about issues. The notion that journalists are light on him so .... over ... and so primary time theme. If there is a Palin like issue on him (say he is involved in firing someone; or exaggerating facts about her opposition to bridge to nowhere; or even about family with a teen-aged pregnant daughter) the press would have been on fire just like when Rev.Wright was an issue. So dont say that press is light on him. About the race - you may not see everything open in our offices but yes his race is a main reason why he is still backward in polls if Obama with same policies and same charisma and same experience level and background is a white guy he would have run away with this election already. Whether we like it or not race is a factor and it works both ways. The thing that I dont like about Obama is the fact that dems are still didnt close this thing - the state of economy, an illogical war, an all-time low popularity of incumbent president who belong to other party - still thing is not closed. I truly think that it would have been different if Hillary is the nominee.
About whether community organization is a reason enough to become president - on the same token we can ask - whether crashing your plane in a war is reason enough to become president. Ofcourse not - both of them have enough strengths to came to this point than being onetime organizer or onetime POW. As someone in the sidelines - I like them to see to run this campaign in a honoroble way and discuss real issues rather than rake up silly/idiotic/dumb/fake issues. Both initially seemed promise in running campaigns in that way but of late McCain/palin went off the line and its slowly becoming a mug-slinging match. In that respect I started liking Obama more.
On immigration related issues - especially EB related issues - I think none of them can make a difference. We need something to be done in congress and personally I think that probability of something happening next year is very low (that is why HR5882 is so important for us - its right time and if we miss it we have to wait for another couple years maybe).
I was Dem leaning too, and I liked Hillary. But Obama has in no way been running the honorable campaign. He is using others to do his dirty job, if you think otherwise, you too have been sold on the propaganda of the left.
when obama made a sexist remark, what did the press do? Nothing. Let us see what happens if his opposition makes a even a hint of racist remark. I am sure then that the republican campaign will be pounded by every media outlet in the country.
Again, not to say I like republican ideology, I am very left leaning in my thoughts and actions. However at this time, I see that majority of the left is leaning towards Obama just for the sake of leaning towards left, and not on the merits of candidacy. And such thing is bad for everyone concerned (even the world, because like it on not, what happens in USA doesn't just stay in USA) -- Obama has already demonstrated that he is nothing but a political opportunist. His comments on Israel (I liked his statement, but not his intention) and the eventual recanting, and among many other examples, shows that he is just unqualified to be the President.
And for the records, McCain in not running for the job just based on the fact that he was shot down. He has considerable amount of experience working in the Senate and knowledge of world issues, and American issues too.

Yeah, and you automatically get a PR after 3 years of continous employment on a Work Permit. I've been there, done that.
So, how come so many people, including British Nationals, leave UK to come & work in US?
In Great Britain actually it is not only that the spouse of employee is allowed to work, but also a spouse of a STUDENT!!!!
Better not to compare that system with American - it's too depressing!

Hello,
I have a few questions regarding the application for AP for a dependent, and I would appreciate it if someone would answer them.
1. If the dependent is applying for AP, should I include the primary applicant's I-485 in the application packet?
>>> U mean 1-485 receipt notice then no, just apply the dependents i-485 notice
2. The dependent has an EAD. Is it necessary to include copy(ies) of the EADs with the AP packet?
>>> Yes, it shows the current status as on EAD.
3. If the previous AP has expired, is the applicationo process for a new AP different from that if a non-expired AP is being renewed?
>>>No, apply as renew, I had done this last time and it worked out alright
4. I was reading in some threads that the $305 fee will be waived if there is a pending I-485. Is that correct?
>>>No way man, we have to shell out(if you are july'07 filer), even otherwise does 305 really matter?? its not worth the hassle of rfe,denial refiling etc(just my humble opinion).If possible take a look at my blog post, might be helpful in writing a cover letter.
Thanks in advance!

I think the right way is for it to move laterally. If the govt wants 40,000 EB-1's it should get that number or atleast close to it. No point in some one in EB-1waiting for their GC when it filters down to a lower category. Also no point talking about why everything has to be equal. It is not, thats why they have set EB1,EB2 and EB3.Each requires a different skill set. People would not have raised this issue if this was an EB1-EB2 issue. Only because it is a EB2-EB3 issue there is so much outcry. If they have laterally used EB-1 if there was high demand in EB-1 no body would have raised the issue as they know what skills EB-1 needs. Now that it moved laterally in EB-2 some EB-3's who think they are as qualified as EB-2's is creating all this issue. Again you should have applied in EB2 than EB3 instead of raising questions on why EB2 moved forward.
Also its not like it is current or anything. EB-3 ROW is still better than EB2 India/China and for Christ's sake EB2 India was unavailable last 2 months......

Subject: Injustice :mad: for people with priority dates in '02, '03, '04 etc. who are still waiting for their labor certs to be processed using the traditional process - we want to file a case against DOL's lethargy - Let us join together and file a case against DOL and bring justice to this unjustified system.
The manner in which the backlog reduction center have been processing the
labor certs seems to be very unfair for people like me and others who have been affected. I know of cases with priority dates as late as 2005 that have gone through the traditional process and have been approved already. And there are cases like mine and others with much earlier priority dates that haven't been done. This is very unfair and unjustified. It is like we have been standing in the queue for several hours and a person who came much later than me just sneaked into the queue and got his service done while I am still waiting for my turn. Also the fact that now the UCIS has made the filing of I-485 current adds more insult to the injury that I and others in my position have endured.
The fact that the I-485 was made current and then withdrawn was made a big deal and people wanted to file cases, whereas the plight of people like me who are still waiting for the labor cert to be cleared has been totally
ignored, inspite of the fact that people who applied for labor much later
have been approved through the traditional process.
We want to file a case ASAP with the DOL or other relevant
authority regarding this issue and the unfair way of the process that we
have been subjected to. So can all those folks who have been affected by this join and voice your support? We shoud put up this fight because this is in no way justified. Why would it be?
The next steps should be:
- Get all of the support we need from all affected folks ASAP
- Get in touch with a lawyer who can help us to prepare the case
- File the case in a court against DOL
- Make sure we get justice
Please join and show your support. Please help!!!

The placement statistics from the Rotman school of Management website is quite impressive.
I've a few questions for you. How bright are the job prospects after doing an MBA from U of T in the current recession wolrd? Are part-time MBA students given equal opportunity in job placements? What's the % of placement among Canadian vs US employers?. Howmuch salary can a person with Engineering degree + US experience + Canadian MBA expect to get?
Placement statistics there are hyped up. Not that great. However the US ones are also hyped. So lets be fair here. US school dont tell
foreign students that without GC employers dont even want to look at you. Even Harvard foreign students are having a very bad time.
Plus here they allow spouse to work. If the marriage is more than 3 years , then that
spousal work permit leads to resident tuition as well. In US F4 cant work. Even you cant work off campus. Without working you have to support 2 persons (for married people)
Compared to Canada, US literally treats foreign students like dogs....I dont understand why people from India still come to do MS in US. Yes I know I have done MS in US and MBA in Canada....so I can compare first hand.
Let me be honest. Opportunities in Canada is no way compared to US for a US Citizen/GC.
However if you are not a US Citizen/GC then you are far better off in Canada.
Lately Rotman is a bit too expensive for non-resident tuition. So I wont recommend that to international students. However you can choose U of Calgary etc. I was a PR before I joined Rotman so I got loans, worked part more than 20 hrs week (often more than 30 hrs). Leaving H1B job in US for a MBA in Canada was one of the best decisions I have taken. In fact I was so convinced that I should not do MBA in US that I didnt even apply in
US schools.
Answering your specific questions
International students in Canada are doing better than international students in US who need an H1B. In Canada after 1st they all applied for
PR and are close to getting PR Plus they get 3 year unrestricted work permit. It has been bad. But now I see eventually all are getting full time employment.
Part time students cant apply through the full time career center. But they can talk and annend info session. Most people including fulltime
MBA get jobs outside career center.
US experience isnt give a premium. Canadian experience is always prefered. 60K to 70K is the typical salaries that foreign students are getting. Well I never said that Canadian oppotunities are great but what i can say is that Canada is a better option if you are not a
GC/USC.
It is hard to compare Canada vs India. India as other problems. If you want finance sector jobs then it is Bombay. It involves long travel
of 2 hours in locals each way. 4 hours travel...there is no personal time left after work. I personally cant take it...it might be different
for others. Power problems, traffic jam etc is there. It about what you consider quality of life, and that is different from person to person.

I've read the document. IEEE is supporting "Immigration Visas" but not H-1B visas(temporary).
Can you shed some light what they meant by "Immigration Visas"?
It would be great if you can give us an example of some one coming on "Immigration Visa" and becoming a permanent resident and subsequently a US citizen.
Immigration visas are really GCs themselves. The only ones that I know who come directly to US on one are the family sponsored immigrants.
i agree IEEE is right about H1-B visas denying rights to workers (we dont claim it is perfect either).But it is just not conceivable for EB immigrants to come directly on a GC, given the long delays. So what they say sounds valid in theory, but impossible in practise.
If USCIS takes 5 years to process an EB visa,how is anyone going to wait that long to hire a foreign worker ? And what is going to happen to a foreign student when he graduates ? go back home and return after 5 years ? Even allowing for significant reform, and assuming their "instant GC" proposal is really instant, I dont see a GC ever being processed in under 2 years anytime in the near future. IEEE only provides lip service to legal immigration, while pushing its case against H1-B. I have not seen any concrete proposals from them to make the GC process painless. To me, it all smells of a veiled attempt to make the immigration process so cumbersome that few employers will want to even go for it.
IEEE-USA might at best be neutral towards our cause, but going by their reaction to CIR, I dont see them jumping with joy if GC numbers are increased.

If USCIS takes 5 years to process an EB visa,how is anyone going to wait that long to hire a foreign worker ? And what is going to happen to a foreign student when he graduates ? go back home and return after 5 years ? Even allowing for significant reform, and assuming their "instant GC" proposal is really instant, I dont see a GC ever being processed in under 2 years anytime in the near future. IEEE only provides lip service to legal immigration, while pushing its case against H1-B. I have not seen any concrete proposals from them to make the GC process painless. To me, it all smells of a veiled attempt to make the immigration process so cumbersome that few employers will want to even go for it.
IEEE-USA might at best be neutral towards our cause, but going by their reaction to CIR, I dont see them jumping with joy if GC numbers are increased.

factoryman, looks like chlei or whatever has wrong information. i guess he/she is presuming "Schedule A applicants are entitled to up to 50,000 �recaptured� numbers." even now.
chlei or whatever, that is not true. those 50000 expired jan 2007 or sometime around and i agree with factoryman that we must stop them from geting our unused visas again this year. i have written to some senators listed on HLG blog

I was in a similar boat as you when i filed my I485. I was forced to file 140 premium by itself as they stopped accepting starting july 2 07. So we shipped 140 on 29th june 07.On 5th july 07 my attorney shipped 485 with a FedEx acknowledgement of 140 doc acceptance and entire photo copy set of 140 documents

Thanks for calling rongch60..
Welcome to IV!
I just called and was asked for names and comments. I told her my personal experience: came 10 years ago, worked 5 years, approved I-140 2 years ago, stuck in the queue, working as a scientist at Stanford University, and can not apply fund and have difficulty attending international conference. She asked the state I am from. I strongly urge TX members to call. It is very easy.

I already posted a poll about the possibility of Detroit Rally. Only 4 positives so far out of 800 IV members from Michigan.
Everyone wants to see action. Question is - are you ready to bell the cat? Are you ready to do it?

Please co-ordinate with Nixstor on this
I am willing to do it. I did call up the local senators and congresspeople about supporting the bills. I have asked the GM of my company to give me some political contacts (am still waiting on him) since he had recently gone to DC to do some lobbying for small businesses. Let me check in the DC/MD forum and figure out who we should target/meet.

I just found out that I will not be getting the stimulus as my wife is cannot get a SSN. In addition, we will not be getting stimulus amount for our American born daughter.
We have been here for a year and a half and while there are some benefits to being in America, my wife and I are trying hard to understand why we moved here from Canada (saving taxes is no benefit when compared to having to deal with ignorance all around). My being here is benefiting an American company (which did not have the expertise that I brought to them and this country) and thereby this country.
If I were to leave the company, a number of people would lose their jobs and I would take my expertise somewhere else.....
Is it true that almost everything done in America is poorly planned and lacks foresight and common sense? Our experience here to date is giving us this impression.....
I would be interested in joining with others against the IDIOTS who don't understand who is benefitting this country.

Can we get an opinion from one of the lawyers on this forum? I'm very suspicious that if we do file something we'll have to do it through our employers.
Anybody with an opinion on that?
