and the point you are trying to bring up is???
i think he may want to be the ceo of iv.
here are my 2 cents..
its nice to talk endlessly about what went wrong and bitch about it till the morning. one thing we all need to realise is this : we are going to have failures. period. just like we have had failures in the past. this is not going to be easy where you win every single legislation. 10% hit rate is success enough given the opposition and difficulties we face. so now, given that our batting average is going to be low, the question is this : everytime we have a failure, if people are going to sit on their butt, smoking their pipe dreams and doing monday morning quarterbacking about what part was wrong, then shouldn't they also volunteer to their local IV section to make it better? lets face it, if you really think something can be done better, then volunteer to the local IV branch and do it. everybody can benefit. but if all you are going to be doing is sitting here and posting negative messages, then you hurt everybody, starting with you. the opposition is much better organized, has more money and has great influences on the political inside. if you are not providing any constructive or organizational help, causing people to be distracted and causing IV core to lose their focus, and if you are not willing to volunteer to make it better, then in my opinion its best to step aside, be quiet and let the people in charge do it. again, if you are not helping, then you hurt everybody starting with you.
in this case, like paskal mentioned, if you think the phone calls were not important, then you haven't seen the victory message from numbersusa where they talked about the deluge of phone calls that were made by their supporters and how crucial it was in throwing out the visa recapture amendment. if anything, perhaps we could have gotten better organized with the calls. But I suspect things also moved much faster than anyone anticipated, including IV core.
lets focus our energies and support IV core and ourselves.
peace

Having seen numerous threads in which the exchanges became rude/sarcastic/rude or even outright abusive and vulgar, I was hoping that this would not become one.
Ron, while you may have a point in what you say, sarcasm and taunts will get you no where. As you said, the 'antis' are gearing up, suggesting (I presume) that the effort of all of us should be more concerted and determined. But you are not doing yourself any favor by saying the things that you do.
Raji had a point of view, and has not been rude or offensive in expressing it. In fact, her/his first post was out why it is not good to use the AILA template. Well, PASKAL did try to address. Raji's tone or tenor of posts did not merit a peremptory reply, much less a rude one.
Be that as it may, I do believe fervently that even if someone insists/demands an answer, you can always ignore it instead of being rude or aggressive.
That way there will be more people on IV'S side.
Brightsider,
Can you please update your profile?

I dont work for consultant and yet I relocated last year. I admit its less frequent when you work directly for a company. I work longer hours not because I am told to, but it makes me feel more secure in my job by doing so and by making myself more useful than neccesary. WHy? coz I cannot change employer and keep my greencard process intact and continual. Its has to be started from scratch. Not affordable. Hence the longer hours. Is it forced? No. Is it fair. Absolutely not.
Finding a local to marry is not an option. Why? Firstly, many of us are already married. Secondly and more importantly, if you marry a local with the intention of obtaining immigration benefits, you are breaking the law. I dont mean to say that marrying a local is wrong, but it is illegal if you are doing it only for immigration benefits resulting from marrying a citizen and you could lose that greencard if things go haywire. To quote Shushterman, an immigration lawyer and former USCIS employee: If you are caught doing something illegal by USCIS, you are better off robbing a liquor store than marrying a local with intention of greencard. USCIS may pardon you if you robbed a liquor store, and still give your greencard but not if you married a citizen with intention of immigration benefits.
Now, coming to rights and privileges, privileges wouldnt exist unless you had the rights. Privileges granted by Government to public are based on rights. There are some things that the seeker calls rights and the person who grants them calls them privileges. If you want to be forceful, you have to call it a right, not a privileges. We call "Human rights" rights for a reason and not "Human privileges". See, privileges imply a hand-out. Rights imply justice. There is a difference between hand-out and justice.

It is better to talk to person handling Immigration Issues. If you cannot get hold of him/her leave a VM. if the mailbox is full leave a message with the person answering the phone
Mary Bono � California 45'th District
Took my name, address and Bill #�s.
Brian Bilbray � California 50'th District
Left VM
Ken Calvert � California 44'th District
Spoke to a lady named Rebecca, she sounded like she was not happy that she is receiving many calls from IV members. She was trying to tell me that she has received the message and will pass it on to Rep, but further calls are not going to help.
Once I asked her "Are you suggesting that we (IV members) should not be calling your office regarding this important bills", she toned down a bit and took my message.
Jerry Lewis � California 41'st District
Spoke to the concerned person; she took my name, address and Bill #�s.
John Campbell � California 48'th District
Took my name, address and Bill #�s.
Gary Miller � California 42'nd District
Left a VM.
Question for people who understand Washington better than me�.
Do we really have to ask for the person who handles legislative and immigration matters or it is ok to leave message to the person who answers the phone? I guess the answer is �it�s better to talk to the person who handles immigration matters�, but as per my observation, immigration person in representative�s office deals with any immigration issues related to constituents.

Friends,
I too have received an update from CRIS about reopening my old H1B from my previous employer which is a large multi-national organization. I have changed the company since then and I have already received my EAD with the new company. I am a bit worried about the outcome of this review. If in the event of revoking the H1b of my previous employer, will my current H1B will also be revoked or am I safe irrespective of the outcome. Would really appreciate if someone can provide any feedback.
Thanks
Hi,
I have my old H1B reopened on Sept. 28. The USCIS said they mailed me a notice, but so far I haven't received any mailed notice. Have you received this document?
Thanks

Unfortunately, country of birth for PD determination is one thing that cannot change. It is ridiculous that a country like the US that promotes itself as a meritocracy and a country of second chances ties the fate of EB applicants to such an immutable parameter.
I used to believe in and respect the so-called the American Dream. The more I stay here, the more I see its hypocrosy. ;)
Whenever I hear someone (esp. those politians) talking about something like no matter who you are, you can always achieve your potential, I just laugh. What a disguise ... what a joke! :D

Got a mails from USCIS that both my case and my spouse's case are approved and card will arrive shortly. However the online status still says 'Pending'.
Is this common and will the online status change in a couple of days?

I won't like to take names on public forum of the Congress members we have/will approach. But to answer you question, we are taking all necessary steps to make this walk a success. Also, the measure of success will be a large turn-out by legals to protest, which in itself is unprecedented. We won't like to marry the success of this protest with the presence of any particular Congress member or Senator at this time. The bottomline is, media coverage for our issue.

Why can't we simultaneously have webfaxes + letters + phone calls + sit-ins + flower mailing + writing to newspapers etc. etc.?
The reason is that whatever the "action item" - it's more or less the same 500people who come forward.
Having said that - there is no stopping members to lead and motivate other members to join in an aciton item that they can "sell" to those other members.

Friends, any thoughts on the below questions..
Raj, Thanks for the reply. I am still looking out for the bride which is the reason it may take about a year or so.. So no chance of civil ceremony in a months time.
I have few more questions..
1) What does it really mean by withdrawing the I-485 ? Does it mean you withdraw only the 485 application and can reapply (just 485) it later when you are ready (when its current) ? Or does it mean the full GC process is cancelled, which means you have to start with your labor again at later point of time?
2) What are the real benefits of applying now for I-485 in my scenario? If I get married after the 485 is filed, it sounds like I am forced to anyway maintain my H1B till I get my spouse on H4. Also to apply for my spouse�s 485, my PD must be current at the time of filing. If not, then again I am forced to maintain my H1B till the dates become current.
Just to summarize, it sounds like I have to anyway maintain my H1B till I apply for my spouse�s 485.
So far, does it sound correct ? If not, please correct me..
If the above is correct, why not I apply for 485 after I get married ? Is that a bad idea ? I know I could save about 6 months to an year (may be more in some cases) if I apply before the marriage, but then I am taking the risk of getting approved 485 before my marriage.
Any thoughts?

This is becoming a messy going forward ...we are keeping hopes that it will be better next month.....so far our hopes are left over as hopes only...
Yes, due to CIS lack of capability they have wasted thousands of visas, that is not our fault then why we are suffering......we have been working hard and contributing this economy in all the ways......then why can't we treated to get our legitimate benefits??????
We have wasted/spent years and year here by treating US as our home country....hopeing one day we will get our GC.....but now the way things are moving ..totally we lost our destiny.....and for me (I am sure quite a few out there too) it is not that easy to go out and start the life from scratch again...
IV should stand up and do something...we are with you.
Thanks,
