I've never had such experiences with AF. They are not racist. Airlines are not allowed to issue transit visas and anyone who has lived in France can tell you how insensitive and lazy their bureaucracy is.
True, but Airline CAN give some 'guarantee' to get the transit visa for passengers. I flew Singapore Airline, and they arrange transit passenger to take a tour of the city, if the stopover is , i guess, more then 3 or 4 hrs.
So, I don't buy the argument that its not in their hand. If they wanted they could have done it. Period.
Bad flying experiences do not equate to racism. It is strong word to use and I do not think it applies to this case. Yes, I have seen French show racism towards Africans, but this is not one such case.
When one group right in front of your own eyes gets to stay in a hotel and the other group are left high and dry to loiter in the airport (citing they dont have transit visa), I call it absolutely a kind of Discrimination. I dont give a crap about Transit Visa.
There is a reason why Indians are required to take a transit visa. Coz, in the past there have been Indians (at EU airports) who have claimed that they have lost their memory, do not remember who they are, don't have any ID and hence qualify for asylum on medical grounds. Now these gov'ts are requiring ALL Indians to have a transit visa so that if anyone pulls such antics, they have all the information that they need to identify the individual and deport. Some bad apples have f&^%ed it up for all of us.
Wow!! you are generalizing here about one community here. So, you mean to say folks from Boston, US are going to runaway in Paris to seek asylum because they dont like the homes and jobs in US????? Yeah!!! Paris is a paradise, and everybody on this planet wants to somehow get there..

Yes I've called the rebate hot-line (i think it was the main IRS number and reached there by choosing the rebate option)
The agent was very helpful. It was a while back - i had e-filed, but did not check the box for electronic refund (i had to pay) - so it was treated as a paper filing for this case - and got the check on the paper 'schedule'

Me too! :confused:
From http://www.parlipro.org/table.htm definitions it does not seem that bad to lay on the table. Seems to indicate that it can be taken up for vote and establishes a priority over newer motions(amendments in our case). May be I need a law degree to understand this.:eek:
I am confused. it is very contradicting.

That doesn't mean nothing is being done. I am continuing to do a lot of work on this, but there is nothing new to post right now.
To date I have been able to get every newspaper in the country to do stories on this, as well as three scathing editorials in the NY Times, LA Times, and Mercury News, all of which slammed the government for its action.
I have worked with the staff of a member of Congress to ensure that house representatives were aware of the issue.
As a result, the house of representatives unanimously passed the HEART Act giving stimulus payments to affected soldiers overseas.
I have been able to get an important legal organization to review and research the topic for possible litigation.
I would love to go over the legal details with you, but it is not prudent to give too much detail here right now.
And finally, I have been corresponding with immigrants like you providing advice and updates on the situation.
I am not sure what more you expect.
You have been doing a great job. Please keep it up. Have a nice weekend and relax.

Well, I hope mine gets resolved sooner than 6-8 months! My EAD is already expired and I could not apply since there was nothing in the application where I could show my status which is PR.
TravInd, you are right about people not knowing the priority dates and not aware the GC was a mistake. In fact, I still don't know for sure if mine was a mistake. I will know only when I find it out through the lawyer. My previous lawyer who worked on my GC case said congratulations and everything was fine. I am eager to find out if it was a mistake on my own.
Just a hypothetical scenario.
Say an applicant is having PD of March 2005.
His/Her 485 gets approved with PD of Jan 2005. (may be a typo by CIS data entry person)
However at the time of approval, PD is current till June 2005. (he or she should have been approved anyway).
What would be the scenario? Thoughts? Any one????

Well said...now let me put it in a slightly direct fashion....
Most people seem to be in denial...For now they just want to hear that they will be ok...I''m sure we have members whose motherly instincts can kick in. Please help these poor souls...Not sure what else to say...I'm very dissapointed at how much we were able to raise..
Everbody's posts here are speculations on what USCIS will do to I-485's filed on or after July 2. Everybody is trying to get an answer from USCIS. You called and got an answer DIRECTLY from USCIS which you doubt and don't believe. So what you want is for people here, who can only come up with speculations as to what USCIS's action would be, to confirm what USCIS already told you???
Geez.....you definitely need a brain check.

1. Bush is a lame duck president now.
2. He is not going to do anything for anyone in his last few months. Especially for us who are not in anybody's radar.
3. The white house is better staffed to handle mail and has a larger team to scrutinize mails. Truth is Bush meay never hear about 25K mails sent over a month.
25 K Mails sent in 2 days well may be.
This is a good effort but wrong target. May be ppl sense that and are holding off.
4. We cannot be just an internet forum anymore we need meet n greets..periodic meetings that bring ppl together face to face.

EB3 porting is a loophole like labor substitution.
when I came here 6 yrs ago, I had the option of applying in EB3 with a top 4 consulting US firm and I did not want to go that route. I waited until 2010 to apply in EB2.
Looks like People should come to the US as freshers or with 1-2 yrs experience > Apply in EB3 > Gain 5-6 yrs in experience > Port and BOOM, you have your GC.
How can people claim PD porting at a later date when they were not eligible on that specific date in the first place at that time? I know it's legal just like Labor Substitution.
Thats what i am saying. Agreed.
Reminded of Hannity show. Two idiots coming together and agreeing on stupid stuff. Again, you need to review your core concepts. It is NOT about "eligibility" in terms of a paper degree. Dont assume you know what was in the minds of the people that made the laws.

Advantages of applying AOS when PD is not current
1. No H1 extension needed (especially these days believe me its a nightmare)
2. No visa Stamping needed (BIG BIG Night mare)
3. spouse can work
4. Dont have to worry about LCA blaw blaw blaw. especially after seeing the recent arrests
5. during layoff do not have to start GC process (in this case AC21 can be used)
6. WE CAN CHANGE TO EAD WHEN ANTI IMMIGRANTS CRY ABOUT H1 AND IN THIS ECONOMY DO NOT SURPRISE IF H1 IS COMPLETELY SCRAPPED.
8. Can do two jobs at a time (in this economy its difficult, but this is possible if you are using EAD)
9. You can work for TARP Companies (There are about 360 bail out banks... so you can work for any of these banks if using EAD)
10. BIG ADVANTAGE... IF YOU ARE APPLYING EARLY IT IS VERY MUCH POSSIBLE FOR DHS/CIS TO DO ALL THE BACK GROUND CHECK/NAME CHECK WELL IN ADVANCE. AS AND WHEN A VISA # IS AVAILABLE, IT CAN EASILY BE ASSIGNED TO THE APPLICANT. THIS WAY CIS CAN BE EFFECIENT AND WILL NOT WASTE VISA's
11. More can be added to the list
Again I do support others who say that AC21 job titles clause should be relaxed... All I am saying is one step at a time and more over there is a compaign already in progress.
ALSO numbers really matter. There are lots and lots of my friends who are using AC21 with out any problem.
Seniors Please advice
Thanks a lot,
Kiran :)
I'm hoping this does come through. This is a great step and I'm surprised that the Secretary brought this up on her own. However, hydboy's point is true. This will be most useful if AC21 is honored by USCIS. Kiran's point about convenience for visa stamping doesn't move me. The biggest advantage of applying for AOS is being able to move jobs after 6months using AC21. Anyway, I guess it all depends on the numbers. How many people have had issues with AC21 versus how many have had no issues with AC21. Also in almost everything in life, the ones with negative experience will be more vocal than the the ones who've had a positive experience.

Berry, Appleman & Leiden LLP is very good firm. I have very good experience with them. They completed all my paper work on Jun 30, so that they can file by July 2. Also the attorney and the para-legal were really good and replied to my questions patiently. The website is http://www.usabal.com/
Karthik
Are you kidding me? You are recommending http://www.usabal.com/ aka Berry, Appleman & Leiden LLP? DO NOT USE THIS LAW FIRM. RUN AWAY FROM IT AS FAST AS YOU CAN. They totally screwed up my case. My PD became current on June. I asked them repeadtly to file my 485. And I asked them for like 1 1/2 month. But they waited till July to file my case. So, I was affected by this visa fiasco. Their lawyer do not answer phone calls, they don't return voic mail and they do not response to email for 3-4 days. It is a totally BS firm. If possible go with small immigration law firm.

As I said dont bother replying
Pay attention more to something when you read and ask your questions better (or at least elaborate before you reply with something like the above gem). And, since I suspect this is part of the problem look up "hypothetical". The correct term should have been "on or after July 2" not "after July 2". I didn't bother to sit there and make sure it was perfectly clear since I assumed readers would get it. Obviously, some are slow:D Peace

I�ve been laid off as of Friday last week.
My employer started laying off people an year ago and there were too many cycles so far. I was immune to all those layoffs until Friday. They eliminated everybody in my team, 15 people in total.
I am in the final stage of my GC and I have 2 year EAD. My H1 is expiring in March and my (ex) employer already paid my Attorney for the 3 year extension. They have decided to extend my H1 and paid for the expenses. But in the mean time, they were forced by the investors to show profitability and hence the layoffs.
My (ex) employer is based in Massachusetts and my Labor Certification was done from this location.
I have received job offers from some of my employer�s clients. However, they are based in other States (CO, OH & WA for instance) and they might not be able to do my H1. One of them is interested in hiring me on a contract basis, since they had frozen new hiring.
Is taking a job outside of Massachusetts impact my pending I-485? or Will it violate my Labor Certification conditions? I couldn�t find an answer for this anywhere.
Also, can I take contract jobs for the time being?
I sent out an email to my Attorney with all these questions. But, he is not available until Tuesday next week.
Please post your answers, comments and suggestions.
Thanks!

To all those who haven't called shame to all of you, please return back to India as your stall actions are bringing a disgrace to our country.
The Senator has not made any stand on this issue yet, it is imperative for all of us to call, please call.
United we stand , United we win

Mr. Gotcher posts this today.
Controversy over calculation of "fall across" visa numbers (http://immigration-information.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4610)
Long to short, Mr. Gotcher thinks the explanation of Apr. VB is an error.
I will just quote the last two paragraphs. If you are interested with this topic, you can follow the link to see detail.
************************************************
This is where the controversy arises. Do these provision require the Visa Office to let unused visa number from higher preference categories “fall down” into lower preference categories before being made available to single state quotas, or can they move unused numbers from a worldwide preference category over to single state quotas while there is still demand in the lower worldwide categories?
The Visa Office interpretation is that if there are unused numbers within a specific worldwide category, those numbers may be made available to single state quotas even if lower worldwide preference categories have visa cutoff dates because they are oversubscribed. I believe that this is an error.

stucklabor,
I hope you are right and I am wrong. So, "special handling"
cases do not go through labor certification at all. Do professors have to go through "special handling" labor certification?
If you are right then it means that an advanced degree holder in STEM from a US school with 3 years of prior US experience will be able to apply for I-140 and I-485 right away.
Thanks for clarifying.
Your interpretation is incorrect. An advanced degree holder from the US will not need labor certification. Please go through my and Appu's reasoning in earlier posts on this thread to understand why.
Per Frist's bill, an advanced degree holder in STEM with 3 years experience will be subject to special handling in labor cert. Your (iii) refers to this person. This person is not subject to the numerical quota.
An advanced STEM degree holder from the US does not need labor cert. This is because notwithstanding the applicant's admissiblity for permanent residence, the applicant can file for adjustment of status as long as he has an immigrant petition. "Applicant's admissibility for permanent residency" refers to labor cert for EB 2/3 workers - see section 212 of INA. So irrespective of labor cert, the advanced STEM degree holder from the US can file for Adjustment of Status and I140. However, this person is subject to numerical quota and has to wait for a green card number for 485 approval.
Put both the above paragraphs together - the advanced STEM degree holder from the US with 3 years experience has the best of both worlds - no labor cert, no quota, can file for I140 and I48.

Chapter meetups is a positive step. The so called baby step.... If folks RSVP and do not show up, the leaders will get upset if the same folks do not have the courtesy to tell why they did not show up....;)
First off, I don't appreciate your sarcasm @ 2 cents leading to a dollar. Secondly if your leader is going to scream at people who are not attending the meetings, this is only going to drive people away from IV. Unfortunately, as someone who has learnt it the hard way, using aggressive language (especially language which is a negative judgement on people's nature) does not get the work done at the end of the day. Peace out and good luck with your stuff.
First off, I don't appreciate your sarcasm @ 2 cents leading to a dollar. Secondly if your leader is going to scream at people who are not attending the meetings, this is only going to drive people away from IV.

1) Asking for money to issue a report under FOIA cannot be justified. If the data is public, it is USCIS's job to bring it to us.
2) It is certain that we would be able to get USCIS to waive the $5k fee... but it would take time.
3) If we pay up and they make the program... we need a way so that we can request the reports at regular intervals... after all once the report is prepared, it is available and we should be able to make use of it.
4) A better idea might be to pay the $5k, but instead ask them to make an API.. to which one can we can supply the boundary priority dates using a RESTful service. If we are gonna give money.. we better get the restrained control in our hands. This will help future applicants.
