I am currently on H1 and plan to get married in India next month and file 485 for me and wife next month. She will be able to travel with me on H4. If she starts using EAD after getting it, does that invalidate my H1? I plan to continue with the same employer on H1.

I would think and HOPE that seeing this thresd and message from Logiclife, MOST people who have been visiting IV and not contributed money or time will do atleast ONE of the following:
1. Just register on the website.
2. Join State chapters.
3. One time contributions to the 30K Omnibus fund drive.
4. Join for monthly contributions.
5. Volunteer via State chapters.
If people don't even do this, it is obvious one or more of these can be made of them.
1. They are our "friendly" visitors from ALIPAC.
2. They are incapable of helping themselves via IV efforts. Thus the word 'Cowards' fits rather well for them.
3. They are so broke that they have time to browse the website but don't have any money to contribute.
In my very very very honest opinion, either one of the above reasons makes you a very sad and selfish individual. I am sure we have many many good people that can help and will help, it is just a matter of injecting some urgency.
We have a great organisation and capable core leadership. We have seen lots of new members joining. We have a huge task in front of us and we will all need to put at least the basic effort. Thanks to all those who are contributing and those who will be contributing.

I would like to share my story with other H4 hopefuls and immigration voice.
I came to this country 2 years back. I am well qualified and had an excellent job in Bangalore with more than 4 years of experience in HR. After coming here I have not been able to get an employer to sponsor H1B Visa mainly because my skills sets are not in high demand occupation like Computers/technology but in Human Resource Management. I passed the professional certifications in HR in USA within 6 months of landing here and did get a number of job offers but was unable to take them up because I do not have an EAD.
In fact even my old company in Bangalore where I worked offered me a position here in their office and job offer is still on -provided I have a employment authorization. They are not keen to sposor H1b visa as they consider it too much of a hassle for a non tech employee.Also with the visa cap there are many hurdles to get through to get the H1B visa. Meanwhile our LC is in the backlog center and we are unable to move forward. My husband has received MBA admissions in some top schools in USA. But he had to give it up because of the GC process which seems to have now come to a stand still. When people who has come here illegally (if the bill passes) can now work legally - we who has come here legally and has followed all the rules are not given a chance to contribute to the economy and better our quality of life.
we are not going to go back -our GC is in process - so why shouldnt we be given a change to work while we wait for years for the process to be through. I feel that I have already lost my most productive years where I could have steered my career to H4 Visa rules.
I request Immigration voice to work on the issue of H4 work authorization.

Hi Mpadapa,
I also participated in meeting the lawmakers...Sept 18th to be exact.:) And yeah, I've been very nicely coached by Sumita on what to say and what not to...;)
What I meant was meeting those reps who have not been contacted. And which can be done locally all over the country.
I hope I'm clearer now...:)
485_se_dukhi, thanks for U'r suggestion about meeting local lawmakers. Indeed that is exactly what ppl had done on Sep 17 - Sep 19. We just covered about 150 lawmakers thats just ~1/4 of the lawmakers. Everyone can do the lawmaker meets at their local office, it doesn't require lot of effort just a few phone calls and few hrs to spare. Atleast one person from U'r state chapter would have attended the lawmaker meeting, U should contact U'r state lead on this and proceed further. Also those people who already attended the lawmaker meets are coached on what (not) to say during such meets..
I am sorry to say that "undocumented ppl" have more sponsors in Washington than that for EB-based immigration ppl:D We can sit and whine on forum, unless we take our issues to the forefront (lawmakers and media) no one is going to bother us:p Thats reality:D

bigtime007/8 is clearly a sinner. However, modern civilizations do not kill most sinners. We need to find an atonement prescription for bigtime007/8.
We need to count his (her) posts and persons whom s/he has offended. Then, s/he has to post twice as many posts that offend anti-immigrants and offend twice as many anti-immigrants in non IV blog sites.
To begin with atonement, bigtime007/8 should start studying blogs attached to following articles.

Republicans also are considering a bill that would overhaul visas for high-skilled foreigners.
Senate Republicans are also discussing ways to increase the number of visas for high-skilled workers, now capped at 65,000 a year.

Don't even touch them with a stick. Their services stink.. and they pose as acting ethically but walk a fine line while representing you. They have consistently advised companies ( unfortunately some of the Big fortune 500 one's as well) about how to slow down the process of immigration and have them use it as a retention tool. They advised my previous employer that my job profile did not meet the EB-2 requirements as I was in professional services...! Every one that I hire has a masters and even the client locations that I work at, you did not find any one with my skill set who could not qualify for EB-2. They advised my company to file uned EB-3 to be on the safe side and that too non RIR. I was told that even the position of CEO does not require a a EB-2 qualification and that since about 200 people were laid off 2 years back in acompany that has 9000 employees, my RIR application would be denied. This happened with the Fragomen office out of Dallas in the year 2002. I hope they have improved since.
I was smart enough to say bye to that company and join another fortune company that does not have Fragoment as their lawyers. (I checked on that before I joined them).
I would urge tech industry employees to write to thrir HR departments and their V.P's about this widely used practice at Fragomen and that their representation of the case is not dual. They have acted as black sheep on other cases I know of in simiular situations.

The problem with Per Country limits makes no sense when the same theory is applied to visa's granted because of Skill. Employability has nothing to do with ethnicity (in fact, there are laws that prevent this type of discrimination by employers). It just so happens that currently India and China, due to their educational focus has a lot of people with skills that American industry wants. Who knows, in 10 years this could change and those skills could come from Mauritius and Lichtenstein and then they would be backlogged instead.
Franklin; I agree that per country quotas are discriminatory.
What I am unsure about, is whether it is morally justifiable, and this hinges on whether it actually benefits the United States or not (many forms of discrimination against non-citizens are perfectly legal under the US constitution).
I agree with Hermione, that given the current minuscule quotas the issue is moot (in fact, it was my intention to suggest exactly this, by pointing out that the last thing anyone needs to worry about is per-country quotas when the overall immigration levels are so tiny, and the per-country cap is so small).
I am still on the fence, though, about the moral acceptability of per country quotas in the presence of rationale visa allocations (somewhere around 3 million per year by my estimate). I think at those levels (and with perhaps completely different percentages for the per-country quota) there may indeed be a moral justification (I simply don't know enough about cultural/social dynamics).
I think everyone would agree that the US is certainly entitled to determine how it develops culturally (as is any country).
In its present form of course, the immigration system is damaging the United States (e.g. RBD), so it is impossible for it to be morally acceptable from the US perspective (you can't balance the negative moral implications of discrimination against non-citizens, with the benefits to the citizens of the nation, when there are no benefits to the citizens of the nation).
Significantly, it is most likely true that the present immigration policy is morally acceptable from (say) India's perspective, since it is resulting in improved retention of brain power for India...

There are always exception in the constitution. For example for US president and Vice President only US Born citizens are eligible. In a way you can argue that is also discriminatory.
If anyone thinks country quota is violating law he can easily challenge that. Green card process is not by merrit. Labor and I140 process is not selecting best candidate. That is just checking whether the position exist and the person is eligibe for that. All of the eligible candidates will get. If no country quota then FIFO process will be applied. It is just cutting the line and not selecting best candidates. So company or country will not have any impact on who gets green card first
It seems changing country quota is difficult. But if cap for GC is increased and exempt dependents then no need to remove the country quota
If law is not consistent with constitution, Federal supreme court can revert it. it is not question of fair or unfair. The point is is it violating constitution?

I Feel that what USCIS will do next is not return any application back to sender but DUMP them in some backlog storage room like BEC center and people hAVE TO WAIT FOR NEXT YEAR VB in OCTOBER IN ORDER TO GET RECEIPT NUMBER BASED ON PD AND THEN THEY WILL GET EAD and AP. The only thing is one might save on INCREASE 485 FEES:eek:

If you have plans of doing an MBA in future, then Canada would be a better option than US. Otherwise as uma001 points out, doors are closed for most professions except 38 occupations.
H1bslave, in your case your PD is Sep 5 EB2. I see something in the distant horizon. PD of 2007 and beyond or EB3-India I see no hope.
Atleast you can survive on a lifeboat called EAD and AC21.
Note that list of occupations changes constantly. I lived in Canada for 20 years after coming as PR on point system. It works well there, if you think money is not everything. Education is equally good. People, of course are far nicer and friendlier. Even border immigration and custom staff show a friendly face and attitude..
