For those who think that this is good and will not affect them -
What we are hearing now in the news is just the tip of the iceberg. It is just ground work to justify tougher measures against employment based immigration. If it continues, CIR will be passed giving path to citizenship to ILLEGAL immigrants without any measure for employment based immigration. Remember, the only folks who have been in influential position to support EB immigration has been big businesses (like Microsoft, Oracle) and AILA. With the rising unemployment rate, nobody will listen to these businesses. With the indictment of (even a few) cases of H-1B fraud, AILA will not be able to fight the impending tsunami against legal employment based immigrants.
If we don't do anything, illegals will be citizens while people with H-1 and even EAD will be forced to go back. This is the beginning of the end to employment based immigration.
For those who can't read normal font.
BTW, update your profile when you get time, it will help IV and you.

The location will most probably be in Jersey City or Edison or Bridgewater and some volunteers are working on the venue finalization. It will most probably be an after lunch "Tea and Snacks" event.
Aman(waldenpond) and Himanshu(pappu) and other core members will be addressing IV members at the event.
It is very essential that members from the Tri State - NY NJ CT PA and also from surrounding areas make it to the event.
Please bring in all your friends, and also inform as many people as possible and do make it to the event.
A lot of important things will be discussed and a lot of questions will be answered.

Hello anu_t,
I know that you are not jealous. But just for your information, I have a Ph.d degree. Just because my office attorney filed our GC under EB-2, I thought that should be fine. But now I changed my mind (after waiting for couple of years) and planning to file EB1. You have to do Ph.d plus some years of experience to file in EB-1 category.
Hope that helps,

First, you should file for the extension as soon as possible to give ample time to respond to any possible RFE. To be sure you have enough time to sort everything out, you should consider paying the additional $1000 premium processing fee.
Second, If your company employs fewer than 25 employees, and more than 7 of them are H-1B visa holders, then your employer is considered H-1B dependant and may have to meet certain requirements with regard to your salary (must be more than $60,000) or credentials (must hold advanced degree).
Third, if there is an RFE requesting contracts, etc. I would recommend getting a letter from the product company detailing the duration and nature of the relationship with your company and confirming its ongoing nature.

I had written 2 long posts in the past detailing my own views on how to hire an attorney and how to deal with them when you hire them. You may want to go through them in the threads. If someone can dig them we can try to create a thread dedicated on 'advice when you hire an attorney'. I have myself seen enough bad attorneys (both big and small firrms) and the posts were written based on my experiences and experiences of my friends.

Did you get new I-94 with H1 transfer?
Any re-entry in USA after that?

Yes I got an I-94 with the transfer(Same I-94 number as the L1 one). I didn't go out of US after that.

If you havent already seen threads here about how bad the desi employers here in US can be, companies like Satyam, Infosys who are based in India have even worst reputation..they pay indian salaries and expect round the clock work including weekends..and ofcourse no pay..working at McDonalds is probably a better option than these companies...
I had a very bad experience working for one of those companies and many more friends had similar experience.
You are absolutely right my friend. And its certainly a better option to work at McDonalds :)

Obama's point was direct. "Others come here from abroad to study in our colleges and universities. But as soon as they obtain advanced degrees, we send them back home to compete against us. It makes no sense."
He needs to get his basics right first. What does he mean that they send them back home to compete against US? 99.99% of them apply for H1Bs in the 20K reserved for students and if that quota gets used up, they even are allowed to get into the regular pool of 65%. With minimal knowledge, Mr. Prez is making big comments...More like a joke :D
You have to remember, he is talking about the present POLICIES, and what your F1 visa expects from you. Not what people may manage to do (by hook and sometimes by crook)

What the article author is really wanting to say is "Hey I made it to the US and became citizen, don't try to follow my path because then you will make competition for me and my friends :) "
Typical case of discouraging others to follow your path because you cannot bear to see them succeed.

Hello,
My first H1-B visa expires in September 2009. I was going to have my company file for extension exactly 6 months before the expiry date until I found out I cannot travel out of the U.S. while my extension application is pending. I have a trip planned in July.
My company attorney recommended that I put off submitting the extension, go on my trip and apply as soon as I get back.
Is there any risk associated with doing this? Or is it better to apply as soon as I can at the 6 month mark?
Thank you,
Team
No Risk involved. You can do a premium processing if required.

Hi
I am thinking my "living the american dream" will be a dream only.
True. Its just a dream. You work on something for 20 years and get a GC at 45. What are you getting after that. Just continue your dream for another 20 to 30 years and call it a day.
If you get it by 25, you have some years to go hit something for your life.
I stopped worrying on GC and started living on tasks that help my family. I have a job now. If lost, I will go for another job and another and another in India/Europe/Australia/so and so. But surely not going to die or go to hospital for depression.

HI,
I know a case where i-140 was deniied similarly. If you dont really trust the attorney, as it looks to be the case, CHANGE the attorney 1st. Go to a big firm like Murthy.They handle cases like this & in my fren's case, it was successfully cleared using MTR in less than a month.
Make sure you have all the documentation needed for ATP and they ask for 1 out of 3, but if you can get more than that, its good.
