F1 is not an option. To get an F-1 you have to prove intent to move back once your education is over. Being married to a permanent resident its almost impossible to prove that. This is a very tough situation. H-1 and L-1 are options but that depends on her educational background and line of work. One thing i would recommend if you plan to continue your stay in US is apply for her visitor visa before your marriage if you have enough time before your wedding. Atleast she can come visit you if she gets a multiple entry visa. Once you are married you can kiss good bye to the visitor visa option too.
It is not advisable to lie in your application about the wedding. If they find you of comitting fraud they can give you a 3 to 10 year ban from entering united states depending on the seriousness of the fraud.

who cheated whom? come on diptam. you have been here for so long...
you can not talk like that... people look forward to get advise from guys like you. not hatred..
your company/employer cheated you. not anybody else... please rethink about it.
You dont need to knock anyones door - I'll proactively go to anyone who used a "Labor Subs" and call them a Cheat because they have cheated someone else's Property and Dream.
Its gone but i'm personally a victim of that - My 1st Labor was traded in the Market for certain US dollars... The legislation was not there - otherwise i did have sufficient Proof and resources to take care of that cheat company.

Sheila,
2+ 3 you are mentioning is where +3 = three year degree program like BSc / BCS/ BCom programs offered in India. Here I think we are discussing 3 year DIPLOMA program the eligiblity for which is 10th grade. After finishing this program in some universities you are waived 1st year coursework for the degree program in same field. So for regular people it is 10+2+4 to get a bachelors where as people taking the diploma route it is 10+3+3. So in this case of our friend his 10+3 is equivalent to completed only 1st year degree program. the +2 overlaps with what he has studied in +3 and the +1 in commerce will not be counted in coursework.
Anuj: What subject was your diploma was it a management diploma or engineering diploma? What was the eligiblity for the same? Was the institute reputed like does it have an entrance test? If yes do you know their acceptance rate? Might help in preparing a case
That is exactly right. 10 + 3 yr diploma will wave the first year in 4 year B.E.
In 10 + 2 + 3yr diploma, mostly 11th and 12th grade are redundant.....So, it is only equivalent to 10 + 3yr diploma....
When we were in Engineering after 10+2, we had students who joined us in second year (of a 4yr degree) after completing 10 + 3yr diploma....Our class was benefited tremendously by their practical/industrial experience.
I believe OP has a very difficult case and I dont see a way to get around this.
One thing OP can try is apply for a Masters degree in US from a decent university with his credentials. If he has an admission offer, he can then submit that to USCIS to prove his credentials. US Masters require 12+4 years.

Does that means that the existing backlog will be cleared fast?
Specter agreed this morning with Kennedy's approach, provided that these illegal immigrants would not be able to start legalization proceedings until the backlog of 3 million people now waiting in countries around the world for their chance to come to the United States legally get their green cards.
Any comments or thoughts on this is highly appreciated.
Thanks

But, I agree that the requests by the original poster should not be a part of IV's letter campaign.
Everything else will then just follow...
And hopefully no more waiting for mid of the month bulletin updates :-) and years and years of restricted choices due to ongoing GC...
But again.. its we who made these choices :-)

1. I would recommend you to discuss with USCIS on EB1 Application Fraud for MNC( Consulting Service Compnaies) Managers by their Employers. This is one issue we should be more careful. Brought up this issue with USCIS and Recommend more scrutiny on these kind of applications since a lot of fraud in this area and by passing the whole process and harming every genuine applicant.
2. Remind USCIS about the quarterly spill over according to the Law
Thanks

I think calling your university presidents and asking them to show their support for these bills would also be a very good idea.
This bill will encourage pursuit of higher education in US by foreign students in a significant way.
I think this is a good idea. All US graduates should Email or fax there University Presidents. As we know congress does listen to the education industry. All IV members graduated from US universities should contact there respective university presidents.

May 14, 2008 (Computerworld) Efforts to increase the H-1B cap have been stuck in a legislative swamp, but U.S. Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.) has introduced three bills in the last few weeks to help foreign nationals already working in the U.S. to obtain permanent residency. She announced her latest legislative effort late Wednesday.
Fixing the permanent residency, or green card employment-based, visa program has been a top legislative goal of high-tech industry proponents, on par with their efforts to raise the H-1B cap.
And Lofgren, who heads the U.S. House Subcommittee on Immigration, is in the position to move legislation to the head of the class. But it remains to be seen whether she can jump over the legislative stalemate created by lawmakers who want comprehensive immigration reform or nothing at all.
Lofgren's latest bill, HR 6039, which is not yet available online, will exempt graduates of U.S. universities with advanced degrees in science and tech -- the so called STEM degrees (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) -- from the annual 140,000 limit on these permanent residency visas. The bill was officially introduced yesterday.
In a statement, Lofgren said that more than 50% of graudates with advanced degrees in science and engineering are foreign-born. "If we want our economy to continue competing in the global market, we have to retain these foreign students so they compete with us instead of against us in other countries. These men and women are the innovators of tomorrow, and we aren't the only ones looking to retain their talents. Increasingly, employers from Europe, Australia, Canada, and even China and India, are beating U.S. employers for valuable talent," said Lofgren.
That bill is closely tied to legislation introduced earlier this month by Lofgren, HR 5921. That bill seeks to eliminate the per-country caps on employment-based visas. The U.S. caps at 7% per country the number of employment-based visas issued to would-be visiting workers. "Because of this cap, a Chinese or Indian post-graduate at he top of his/her class at MIT may have to wait half a decade or more for a green card, much longer than a student from a less-populated country," said Lofgren, in a statement released when the legislation was announced.
Although much of the focus has been on the H-1B cap and its 85,000-visa quota, which includes the 20,000 set aside for holders of advanced degrees, high-tech industry proponents say the difficulty in getting permanent residency for their employees is as much a problem as getting H-1B visas.
Microsoft has about 4,000 employees for whom it is trying to gain permanent residency, said Jack Krumholtz, managing director of federal government affairs at Microsoft. They face long waits because of the green card backlog, suffering personal and professional frustrations along the way, Microsoft Corp. Chairman Bill Gates testified.
"We only hire people that we think can contribute to our innovation and corporate bottom line over the long haul, so we move immediately to apply for green cards for you and your family members," said Krumholtz, who said Microsoft is supporting Lofgren's legislative effort.
The typical path for a tech worker is, first, work after graduation on a student visa -- a period that was recently extended by the Bush administration from a year to 29 months -- and then an H-1B visa until employment-based permanent residency can be achieved.
Other legislative steps taken by Lofgren include a bill that would take unused employment-based green cards and essentially roll them over for resuse in a subsequent year. That bill is HR 5882. There are Republican co-sponsors for each of these bills.
Lofgren's across-the-aisle backers of these bills include U.S. Reps. Chris Cannon (R-Utah), Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wisc.) and Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.).
Ron Hira, an assistant professor of public policy at the Rochester Institute of Technology, said he believes the U.S. can absorb more highly skilled, permanent immigrants with green cards "without significantly harming the American workforce. But we have to do it the right way."
Among the issues, says Hira, is the thorny question of "who are we going to grant employment-based permanent residence to?" Educational level attained (bachelor's, masters or Ph.D) and the academic area studied by potential residents are apt to be factors in that.
Hira said that one "significant problem" with the Lofgren bills "has to do with using exemptions as a way around tackling the decision of how many [to grant]," and he added the plan to "recapture" was a gimmick to get around the quota issue. Among the questions Congress should look at, says Hira, is the impact of the changes; he indicated, for instance, that the legislation may change incentives, prompting foreign nationals to seek degrees from any U.S. school they can because it will be seen as a path to permanent residency.

There are good and not so good schools here for MS /PhD. Either way why a seperate quota for US MS/PhD. Is a foreign MS/PHD any inferior?
Just a thought..
Especially IIT/IISc are not too bad schools in india!
