I don't know how to open a thread to run a poll to track the number of people ready to send flowers to white house/president to highlight our case to buy houses if there is a a provision to approve GCs on a fast-track basis. With a substantial fast track fee (>4000 dollars) and 20% down payment toward house payment, we have a strong case. If we get hundreds of people ready to send to flowers, may be IV can make it an action item.
In overall picture of the country for housing and financial fix, number of EB's waiting for GC is miniscule. Giving every EB waiting a GC is not going to instantly change the mindset of the rest of the US people. People are not buying homes, because those who would have bought homes in 2008, 09, 10...bought in 2005 and 2006, as they didn't want to be left out, moving demand forward. Now we have a lot more homes and demand for years to come. Home prices will stay soft for at least 5 years.

AC360, CNN
John King, CNN happened to mention yesterday on AC360, that CIR can be passed in the blink of an eye. He seems to think it is the easiest thing to do for the president and the Dems in the current situation.
Any thoughts ?

Gentlemen,
We have several sprinkled threads on AP Renewals so this is an effort to create a thread which can capture all AP Renewal Questions & Concerns.
To begin with, i have posted the following question in one of the other AP-threads but did not get much response. So lets beging with clarifying this issue - Gurus please give your 2 cents on this aspect.
Previoud Post begins here:
I just read this in the I-131 instructions, so if i hold a valid AP now and apply for renewal and go to India and enter back using the existing AP, does it mean my pending I-131 renewal will be abondoned? :eek:
http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-131instr.pdf (page 4)
If you travel before the advance parole document is issued, your application will be deemed abandoned if:
A) You depart from the United States; or
B) The person seeking advance parole attempts to enter the United States before a decision is made on the application.
Thanks.

Dear Sir/Madam:
Thank you for your attention. This is in regards to your online edition article today �Republicans Rev up for Economic Debate�
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB119154966904949270.html?mod=googlenews_wsj
In your article the writer makes a link between high-skilled workers and illegal aliens by talking about the two groups in the same paragraph, thus conveying to the average reader that the two are connected, and/or that high-skilled workers are illegal yet �must be retained�
This is misleading in extreme. High-skilled workers are in the U.S. on Legal visas that are sponsored by their employers. These visas are issued to limited numbers of foreigners in areas where no American workers have been found. These legal workers have to go through grueling government �labor certifications� and extreme waits and red tape just to perform their work, which usually includes U.S. patents and successful start-ups. I urge you to make a correction or an errata to this article which is probably an honest mistake, but which is very unfair, misleading and just plain untrue. Thank you once more.
Sincerely:

Thanks nrk. I am keeping my fingers crossed. I was current for two months in 2008 but did not get. So hoping for the best this time but again I would not be surprised if I don't get it, especially looking at USCIS/DOS works.
I was current in 2008 and then got RFE for me and for my spouse in 2008. We provided the evidence then. The status changed from RFE to RFE Review on Aug-1-2010.

I have known these fence sitters and claimers of all the intelligence in the world for long. In my personal life I have started ignoring them and we can do the same in this effort.
Let these people shout (because that is all they can do rather than real work). If somebody shouts a lot ban him from the board and let's proceed peacefully.
Opposing ideas from active members are always appreciated but someone who just knows how to oppose but never do anything kills motivation. Whether right or wrong it is a bad call for any plan.
So even if somebody thinks he/she is giving good advice but they are not doing anything to help us let's kick them out.

The growing no of posts on this thread seems to indicate this as a bigger problem than was thought of. I guess many people just get in here before the marriage with the plans of settling in career and then get married
But they finally end up to take a decision on choosing one
Green Card ?
or
Spouse ?

Do you really agree with multi-national managers(via L1A). This is the area wherein the interpretation is pretty loose. If you dissect EB1 data you would find that EB1C used bulk of it except for this year due to bad economy and tightening of screws. There should be some very clearly defined guidelines for EB1-C, somebody being an onsite coordinator or managing 5 people should not be eligible. This category should be reserved for those who are managing at least 100 people or control business in several millions. I agree that EB1 should be just for the exceptional.
teddy the pun "multi-national managers(via L1A)" was intended. if that makes it clear.
anyway, the focus of this thread was about the president's immigration speech. Atleast the speech included the fact that illegal immigration makes a mockery of legal immigration. understood that any solution also must include finding a way on how to handle the undocumented people.
anyway, the speech for now might be just a start or more "kick in the butt" to let the congress know that they need to start work in CIR. when it comes to fruition is anybody's guess.

I have been playing safe these many years..... I can't take anymore of Apartment living.... it was OK when kids were 2-3 years old... not anymore..... I guess... you need to be little aggressive.... ;)
As someone said, its a personal choice.
With no GC and the economy still looking south.....buying a house is not the ideal way of being aggressive. If kids are growing bigger and you need a bigger place, just rent a house.

I personally don't think any dramatic change will occur by december. You should probably follow your lawyer. This is a reasonable guess based on warnings issued in the November bulletin and assuming that even if any positive legislation is passed there will not be any movement in December bulletin - such movement would occur only later.

These are the talking points that AILA is suggesting for calls made to the Senators :
http://capwiz.com/aila2/callalert/index.tt?alertid=8554496&type=CO
(please call between 9am & 5pm)
Ask For: Immigration Staffer
Talking Points:
1) Tell your Senator to support the Judiciary Committee's comprehensive immigration reform bill!
2) Tell them that we need a workable solution and path to eventual permanent status for the 12 million undocumented!
3) Tell them that we need a new temporary worker program that offers labor protections and a path to permanent status!
4) Tell them that the family and employment backlog provisions in the Chairman's Mark are good and should remain in the bill!
5) Tell them that full access to the Circuit Courts of Appeal must be preserved!
I hope knnmbd realizes here that AILA has no mention of legal immigrants in the call to Senators.....your thoughts knnmbd?

I am trying to understand something here..... I had consultation with murthy lawyers and they told me that there is no law written anywhere that states that the employer must revoke I-140 if the employees is laid-off or is not working with them anymore. I was laid off and my company is determined to revoke I-140 because thats what Fragomen lawyers suggest. I am having a hard time understanding why would they want to cause problems for me when I am not even leaving on my own and got affected because of layoff.
Does anyone use Fragomen and could ask their attorneys this question whether a company is required or obligated by law to revoke I-140. That way I can try to convince my company's attorney that another attorney within same law firm have different opinion

In America - anybody can say a racial slur against you and they will not be prosecuted under law - you can also do the same without fear of prosecution. Although both of you might loose your jobs because you work for a private company - they have the right to fire anybody they want. First and foremost - please respect the freedom of speech - words dont kill!
Here are a few things that might help shut up folks who talk against you...
1) There is no reason to be overly sentimental about anything (being sentimental and having a sense of entitlement is a desi trait that needs to be gotten rid of as soon as you get off that plane at the airport - it is something that should not have been there in the first place. You are not special, this is not your country, the ppl over here are not dumb, you are here on business and maintain that attitude. If somebody misbehaves with you tell outside of work, them to f*** off - if somebody does that at work - you can reply to them without using abusive language - because abusive language might get you fired. If you HR is effective complain to them - but I prefer to handle it at an individual level - because I am not scared - thats the beauty of America)
2) Dress properly - get a haircut and dont use cooking oil instead of gel. Get rid of the moustache if you have one. Make sure you dont stink. Dressing up smartly elevates your image - remember this country is very image conscious - which I think it should be. Dressing nicely and smelling good will not hurt anybody. To all desi women - please get rid of all the facial + body hair that is visible. Please wear makeup - because you may not be naturally beautiful. Donot act like slobs - nobody likes that.
3) Respect boundaries and dont make other ppl smell your food.
4) Be positive in your attitude, improve your communication skills and dont act servile.
5) Most desis are hard working and responsible people - nothing should hold them back - not certainly the need for an image makeover.
All fellow desis take care and enjoy your life here - life is too short to be depressed about the green card everyday. Most important thing is you stay happy everyday - here or in India.

I agree with each and every word of your posting!!!
IV is doing a fabulous work. Hats off to the core team!!!;
I was active during efforts towards getting the immigration provisions into the S1932 bill and I can say that the efforts today are much more organized than those for S1932; I can imagine the scrambling and the mess that we would have been today, if not for IV.
Good luck, IV!!! Even if we do not succeed this time, we will have enough mileage to push our provisions within a separate bill in the near future. Keep up the good work.
I logged in this morning to get a regular update and came across this thread.
I am surprised to this discussion and the heated debate. Tides and Ebbs are a part of what we do. I think we must all be satisfied that we have IV to represent us. Think about it guys, we would have no voice if it were not for IV. I sincerely hope something comes out of all this efforts that all of us have put in. We have a good thing going here and lets not stop.
Even if nothing happens, I will be content that we have made efforts. Not just a tiny efforts but a big ones. Kudos to everyone who is contributing ideas and money. Keep the good work going and let us know what we have to do to help you all.
