This country seems to be discriminatory against everybody except for people from Mexico and Latin America. The per-country quota's make sense since one wouldn't want immigrants from a particular country or set of countries (India and China) to disrupt the racial mixture of this country. But then why don't they apply the same logic to illegal immigrants from Mexico? They are predominantly of the same race and if they are allowed to stay here and bring their families, it won't be too long until they are the majority ethnic group in this country. Even if one assumes that there are a million plus applications from Indians and Chinese stuck in the green card line, we are only a small fraction of the total number of illegal immigrants! If you are going to have per-country quotas, apply them uniformly across the board- don't give amnesty to millions of people of mexico who are also brown skinned, while making legal, law abiding people from other countries wait for decades! Imagine how long it'll take for illegals to get a Greencard if they applied in EB3 and waited in line for their visa number to be current like the rest of us. Most of them would probably go back to where they came from once faced with that prospect.
I find it highly Ironic that EB2 is current for Mexico and not for India, even though Mexico sends tonnes more people here than India.

You get what you pay for, in a way.
Not really.
I have flown most domestic airlines in this country on really cheap fares/deals and had good experiences overall.
My experience with AI was through code sharing with Singapore. And it sucked big time!
Setting aside my patriotism for a bit, the problem with Air India is it's government run. And we all know how "professional" Indian govt run agencies are.

I have said what I have felt. I am not going to be politically correct, never have been. This is not a forum for pracitising genteel speeches, pampering and politically correct messages.
If you RSVP that "I will come" and the host prepares entire day for meeting, makes her daughter skip the extra carricular activities, ends up using better part of weekend for an event she is thinking will be attended by you, but you dont show up even and dont even bother to call they you are cancelling, then you ought to be ashamed of yourself. If you do something like that in your workplace, then you will get fired. If you signup for a volunteer training/conference on behalf of your company, get company to book your travel, make them spend time/money and then on day of travel, you dont even show up at the airport and attend conference/training that you volunteered to attend, then you will get fired. You wont get fired from Immigration Voice and there are no personal consequence to your bad, lousy manners therefore its afforable to do so, and so you can do it.
If you think EAD is the end of the road and you are free now with AC21 options BUT on the contrary you feel more and more need to visit forums here, on Khanna portal, on Murthy's forums/chats then probably you are wrong, you are not free. You are still bound by strings that restrain your mobility and freedom.
LURKERS : And finally, if the only reason (and this is the most common reason) for not volunteering or participating in activities or contributions is that you are afraid of USCIS or some agency retaliating against your pending 485, and the problem is cowardice. The most common reason why we have 3 times more "visitors" then logged in members is that "visitors" are afraid of the government in the most democratic and free country in the world. I need you to login so that I can get email and information about you so that I can seek your help. And I dont need your help for my own personal gain. I am not going to sell you used cars to send you spams and advertisements about something I am selling. I am one of you. Struggling and fighting against an unfair system. I need your email - not to sell you fortune cookies - but to ask for funds, ask you to attend local events, ask you to meet lawmakers. None of these things bring a single penny to my bank account. None of these things make my PD current. This is for you, if you think you are up for it. But if you are a coward then no one can help you. And if you are offended by being called a "coward" by me, then you are too coward to even recognize that you are a coward.

Hi Guys,
I was looking at the AP renewal instructions. It says:
1. If you are in the United States, you must attach:
a. A copy of any document issued to you by USCIS showing your present status in the United States; and
b. An explanation or other evidence showing the circumstances that warrant issuance of an advance parole document; or
c. If you are an applicant for adjustment of status, a copy of a USCIS receipt as evidence that you filed the adjustment application;
d. If you are traveling to Canada to apply for an immigrant visa, a copy of the U.S. consular appointment letter.
So what I gather from this is that they need:
a) Our H1B status papers and the previous copies of the advanced parole documents.
b) A letter stating why we need the advanced parole.
c) The I-485 receipt copies.
Now it DOES NOT say anything about the photographs if you are filing within the US.
Can someone who has applied for the Advanced Parole (NOT the EAD), please share their experience and what documents are needed. The EAD filing seems to be elaborately covered.
Thanks.
Just I485:
Isn't just I485 receipt enough -
c. If you are an applicant for adjustment of status, a copy of a USCIS receipt as evidence that you filed the adjustment application
( (a) AND (b) ) OR (c)
+ Photographs:
...or if you are in the United States and filing for advance parole document.
You must submit two identical color photographs of yourself taken within 30 days of the filing of this application.
(Photo spec on page 5 of http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-131instr.pdf)
Alongwith I131 and US$305
Note: When I filed EAD, I didn't do over documentation (refer to http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=18737). In case of AP also overdocumentation should not be required.

This link works.: (www.HSC.house.gov).
This is regarding the recent ( rather today's) enquiry with House Committee of Judiciary on SKIL bill, HR-5744. The bill is referred to Committee on Home land security.
They are on recess till Monday. The first step is to Mark up this bill on there calendar. That is very important. I do not know how we can influence them to do so.
We need to work specially with small group of House of rep under House of Committee on Homeland security. (www.HSC.house.gov).
I believe that chairman of this committee is the most powerful person; it is usually one man show.
We need to draft a letter specifying the chairman.
It is much better to convey one person that 500 representative.
I will be drafting a personal letter and sending him by email, by post and fax.
Based on petition posted in this website , I see almost 1000 people signed. If 1000 people do the same thing to Chairman Rep.Peter King, there is a good chance that he will atleast look at the matter.

Hi Vina92,
Thanks for asking.
I am happy that we see a change. The Iraq war is not going well. I do not believe that Democrats are necessarily more qualified and honest than Republicans, but the balance of power is welcome.
Regarding to immigration, my point is that I am certainly happy that we may see things moving - not because they will move directly suited to our category - but we may take a ride with the amnesty CIR bill. That is indirectly positive to us and that may turn out to be good thing indeed.
Since the Democrat led bill is primary designed to satisfy employers looking for low income labor and supply democrats with potential voters in the future, my concern is that many of us may get into trouble ahead, when millions of illegal aliens get their cases in the USCIS queue. In addition, I have to observe that I have a long-term vision:I believe that an amnesty of this magnitute will bring the US to its knees in the mid-term. That is more a long-term vision, but that's what I think and if that is correct, that is certainly troublesome because that would make all my efforts to get a GC unviable at that point. I would not worry about that now. We need to finish our GC business and get out of this as soon as possible.
Some members of this forum continue to distort facts. Nothing has changed for me. I captured all the information I had available back then and discussed with you all. In the last two months violence in Iraq has escalated to unacceptable levels and that has changed the outcome of the elections, apparently to our short-term advantage. It is time for a change for sure. Let's welcome the change.
Again, I am planning to discuss our issues and constantly and deliver fresh daily comments to you all on daily basis. Let's hope that we will have more positive news coming.
Regards,
The Ombudsman
"Your dose of daily reality"
I do not understand what Ombudsman is trying to imply. Are you happy or unhappy about Dems taking up the house? We don't know what they''ll do but I definitely feel hopeful about it. Infact it was the dreaded house where everything stopped in the past. Two times in the past senate okayed bills with legal immigration and were voted down by members of ultra conservative right wing Republicans. I am sure anything will be better than the old house.

I initially posted below text to reply another thread, but the title is not much relavant. So I decided to create a new thread here:
As a background, the pre-application of AOS (file 485 without PD being current) is mentioned in a DHS newsletter here (credit goes to kate123 for finding it).
http://www.dhs.gov/ynews/releases/pr_1233353528835.shtm
Here is the text:
Legal Immigration Benefit Backlogs. What progress has been made in reducing the significant backlogs that had developed in the adjudication of naturalization petitions and adjustment of status (green card) applications? Which regional offices still lag behind in making progress toward target processing times, and what specific steps are recommended for providing priority resources to those offices?
Please provide an assessment of information-sharing with the Department of State’s Bureau of Consular Affairs on projected adjustment caseloads, to be used by that Bureau in setting each month’s cutoff dates on waiting lists for immigration categories that are limited by a yearly quota. What steps have been taken and what further steps are recommended to make sure that the full quota of permanent immigration spaces is used each fiscal year? What regulatory or legislative changes (including a possible pre-application filing procedure for adjustment cases) are recommended to facilitate caseload planning and make optimum use of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services adjudication capacity?
This is a great finding I've read that page, but never noticed the Secretary of DHS specifically mentioned Pre-Application of AOS. Now that they do have this in their mind, can we start working on that? I'd love to share a few thoughts I have on it:
From the lessons we learnt from the past, the most important thing for this admin fix to fly is compromise: there must be kind of restriction for the pre-application AOS. A few examples I could think of are:
- The person has been in the country LEGALLY for more than a number of years, OR
- The PD are more than a certain number years old, OR
- I-140 has been approved, OR
- Must have MS or higher for a US college (just for argument's sake, please don't flame me).
The key is to not allow everyone to file pre-application or it'll be drown in a media storm and draw backfires. Yet it gives you a certain promise that you'll be able to file pre-application once you are here for a certain period of time, so everyone has hope and those who has suffered more would have an almost certain chance to do so.
IV core, should we work on this? This is the first time we see pre-application of AOS appears in official file and I believe it's a great opportunity.

I agree with concept of sending ac21 letter but there are similar experiences that this letter is ofcourse of hardly any consideration.
AC21 is a law, if erraneously denied it should be opened by MTR...as ppl have underlined , it doesnt matter whether a person used EAD or H1B. This whole discussion is triggered by employer revoking 140 not becoz USCIS is denying due to I129. Its all in the IO if hez not aware of AC21 thats our trouble begines. :( but i have not heard of any failure of AC21 MTR so far ...
prince_charming, you had mentioned that you had done H1 transfer with AC21.
I think it was mentioned in one of the posts in Murthy site that such a situation could lead to denial of I-485 as it would constitute abandonment of AOS application. One should use EAD after filling AC21.

First of all let us applaud the effort and commitment of needhelp and the many other committed members of Immigration Voice. I think it takes a lot to sacrifice personal time for an effort that others may benefit from but who may not see or recognize it.
Having said that some of the posts on this forum are emotional responses. I think we need to keep in perspective that "galvanizing people to a goal" is one of the most difficult things to accomplish. IMHO chastising "wake up" call speeches is not going to help. That is not to say that some of what is being said is not right. But I ask why should we chastise anybody?
At the moment I seem to be the only member of the NM Chapter (hopefully that will change). But frankly, it took me more than a year to buy into Immigration Voice and it's value. I have only recently started getting involved. As I see it, if someone visits this website (even for an update or to read forum discussions - as I did) they see value in coming here. Recognition of value brings commitment. But that also takes time. Maybe a lot of people cannot commit in ways we want them to commit. Maybe a lot of people choose not to. We should wish all of them the very best of luck.
Should we be disappointed? Sure. But we should also keep in perspective that it is their choice and we have to be "okay" with that.
On the other side, I was pleasantly surprised that in 10 days we were able to collect 2/3 rds of our target for the omnibus bill. That is an awesome feat. People can choose to be part of it or not. It is really up to them. I know I will have stories to tell.
And to needhelp...don't worry you have plenty of support and if you keep at it you will find more success.

Friends,
Ofcourse everyone is very excited that the priority dates are current but let's take a careful look for why it became current all of a sudden even when the demand for visa numbers is so high and was backlogged by 5 years up until couple of months ago.
1. I sincerely feel this is just to keep the legal immigrants to stop protesting for benefits in the CIR. Well, the CIR is supposed to be dead right? Wrong, count 2 weeks from now and the Bill will be back with tons of benefits for Illegal aliens and none for legals.
2. Currently Service centers are processing cases received in Aug-Sept. '06 with the few thousands of applications being submitted for the next few weeks the processing dates will be moved back by couple of years. All this time we were waiting for the priority dates and now will wait for the processing dates to be advanced. What a circus!!!
3. Just when the case is ready for processing that would be atleast couple of years from now, the priority dates will be retrogressed may be by 10 years this time.
To my knoweledge we should still continue to lobby the senators and get the Visa numbers increased, get the country quota eliminated, Only one visa should be counted per family... and get it into the CIR. Should the CIR pass without these ammendments legal immigrants will be stuck in limbo for every because there will be no more CIRs in the near future.
TIA

Washington, Jun 30 - As the United States works to maintain its economic competitive edge, U.S. Representative John Shadegg (R-AZ) introduced legislation yesterday to help retain the innovative minds of foreign-born nationals here in the United States.
“We have benefited greatly from the many foreign-born scientists, engineers, health care professionals, and teachers that help keep America moving forward,” said Shadegg, a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. “To our detriment, current policy mandates that we educate and train these brilliant individuals and then send them away to other countries to compete against us.”
H.R. 5744, The Securing Knowledge, Innovation, and Leadership (SKIL) Act, addresses this growing problem by increasing the allotment of H-1B visas, returning to the prior, higher level of 115,000, with potential for future increases. The bill would also allow foreign nationals who graduate from U.S. universities to stay in America and contribute to our economy by joining the American workforce.
“Unfortunately, we are not graduating the number of Americans with advanced degrees in math and sciences that our high tech and medical industries need to compete. Until we can fix the problem of not having enough highly skilled American graduates, we need to pass the SKIL Bill.”
Shadegg went on to say, “We stand to potentially lose the next technological giants like Yahoo! or Google if we do not keep America’s workforce competitive. We must maintain our edge by providing opportunities to highly educated and skilled individuals interested in staying here in the U.S.”
In 2005, foreign nationals earned more than 40 percent of the master’s degrees and 60 percent of the doctorate degrees in engineering awarded by U.S. universities.

never worked for "employer x" after H1 transfer, perhaps you are out of status. What is your lawyer saying? You never transferred H1 back to emplyer#2?
I do not think this is the case with OP, given that I quote, Employer X offiered me a job and sponsored my H1B and got it approved too". I guess this is a new H1B filing rather than a transfer from Employer #2 to Employer X. if this is a transfer, OP is in trouble as you suggested and the employment from transfer approval date till now will be considered "unauthorized work".
could you confirm whether Employer X thing is a transfer or fresh filing?
