By the way, AILA reports the bill numbers for the Dream Act as follows (the bills were introduced in both house and senate)...S. 774 and H.R. 1275...it doesn't mention anything about being below 30, z visas, or being undocumented...!!!

Does it really make sense for a CP filer to get EAD? Interim benefits are for AOS filers and rightly so too as a CP filer is deemed to be outside the USA.

Just imagine what will happen to the market flooded with EADs. Job market for H1Bs will totally be down. No US companies will hire H1Bs if they get somebody with an EAD. Tonnes of Junior developers and S/W testers will in the market driving the billing rates down even further. It's better to pack up and leave. I have heard from one of the forums here that an estimated 500K people will file this month since all PDs are current. EB-3 mexico + phillipines togther alone will be close to 300K. God help the Job market.
Also minimum wait time will be 500K/140K ~ 4 yrs before they get to process your GC. Add to that the time for namecheck backlog 2+ yrs. So total 6+ yrs before getting GC........
lotr
Isnt that how a market is supposed to work - on the laws of demand and supply. For every consequence there is always an unintended one. And if enought local wokers (EAD, others) are available then the laws of the market would require an automatic reduction in the number of H1b's.
Before people start dumping on me - lets remind ourselves that we are here for a healthy debate and to appreciate ALL view points.
Remember - It is not that important to know all the answers as it is to ask the right questions.

isnt a visa number assigned when they apply for 485?
good point in item 4. When i talk to people from other countries about visa issues and IV they just look at the processing dates for 485 and think that GC will be approved in 6 months.
Please remember that even if BEC clears the application with 2001 priority dates. These people still need to:
1) Apply for I140
2) Have I-140 Approved
3) Apply for I-485 only if their priority date is current
4) Complete various I-485 tasks like fingerprinting, BACKGROUND CHECKS (this is a huge one and unless you are lucky you can get stranded for anywhere between 6 months to 3 years)
5) Now after completing 1 - 4 above you can expect that they will apply a visa number to the application

Urgency of getting a receipt is that once you get the receipt, it means that USCIS has 'accepted' your application and it will not be rejected for lack of initial evidence.
Why do you keep calling them everyday? What is the urgency of getting receipts?

Ah, but that was the private sector -- not head bashing against slow governmental bureaucracy. You'd be surprised to know what is going on with MS's current efforts on these matters.

He sent me an email to pay $3500, do you think he will go legal for this, I did not sign any contract with him.
If he goes to court will i loose(he may create documents) or will i be in trouble if he wins the case.
Please suggest.
All this for $3500? Its going to cost him a lot more if he wants to file a lawsuit.
I don't think anybody will tell you for sure what the court will rule. Even if you pay a lawyer he will not tell you that - not in writing. Chances are that this will not even go to court and based the discussion on this thread its very unlikely if this will hold in any court.
BTW, how did he come up with the figure 3500? Is that the salary that was paid to you while you were working for another company? As somebody pointed out earlier if this was the money paid to you as compensation when you did not work for him then he might be reasonable in asking you to re-pay.
Let us know if you any information on what the 3500 figure is for.
An email does not mean anything. You can just ignore it. Unless you have a certified notice from court you have nothing to worry about.

No. I am not anti-immigrant. I am anti-illegal immigrant. I know the AZ law very well coz I read it not like many who seem to listen to talk radio. Good opinions can be formed only with good knowledge and we don't need evryone to have an opinion. Most should only subscribe to an opinion otherwise there will only be infighting and no progress.
President Obama just lost a good chance to gain democratic majority in Nov. Now people are saying....why is the fed govt. not letting a state protect its citizens?
Also the fact that a lawsuit is brought against AZ shows that the real wider immigration issue is not to be touched.
Can you explain how this new law protects American citizens?

I thought so. Life's never simple with USCIS in it :) If at that time my spouse (my beneficiary) has not used EAD and is still on a non immigrant visa (H1 or L1), can I switch to dependent status?

All,
With the current rate of outsourcing happening around in US and the rate of influx of temporary workers coming in on mostly L1 and may be few on H1 B Visas every year through the outsourcing companies , i am sceptical about the future of GC aspirants. With the way of GC processing happening which are caused by restrictions /policies of governing bodies and no sight of positive relief in near future i am little apprehensive about the future.
I feel that there might be no areas that are not impacted by Outsourcing boom . Most of the companies that i see and my friends work ,i see many of the operations are outsourced or planning in place to get outsourced.
with the current rate of outsourcing and subprime mess which may cause slow down in economy , i am not sure if there would be any positions to support our AOS , when our PD becomes current. Some times i think , the fight for GC is even worth it.
Every one feel free to post your views/opinions/Analysis on this topic ....

If we will get EADs, let's see who are gonna be our friends and enemies:
Lawyers. They are never our friends. If you are on H1b, then you better do every extension through the lawyer. If your H1b extension will be denied, you are in trouble. If you are on AOS/EAD cycle - you don't need a lawyer. It's a simple application. If for some reason your EAD denied (because you screwed something up in application), you will just reapply - it will not affect your status. If you will have a gap - just take leave without pay, to be formally compliant. So.. lawyers will lose, if we will all jump on EAD.
Employers. Believe me, so many consulting companies will be out of business for good, because a lot of folks will just join other companies for better salaries. It will be no more slavery, no more intimidation. For a lot of employers "f$%4 off" will be the usual thing they hear. So they won't like it.
Average American. We will be able to compete with them directly and kick them out of many positions. It's a capitalist country, and competition is a key to prosperity. It is much harder to find a job on H1B than with EAD. Yes, average American employee is undereducated and overpriced, and with a lot of demand and drama. Successful companies will love to hire us.
US government. They will like to get us on EAD, because we will start having higher salaries and will be paying higher taxes. We will start paying yearly EAD/AP fees. So, in this case DOS is on our side.
I think DOS perfectly understood that, that's why they made dates current to force USCIS give us EAD. It was no mistake. But all kinda anti-immigrant forces desperately made this impossible by more likely braking the law.

FYI.
I used sub with later priority date and EB3 instead of EB2 after waiting for 6 and half years for my own LC. I still do not know what happened to the original LC.
Does this look like a fraud to you ?
I am not saying to you in particular.
But the scenario you just mentioned is, like losing even after doing cheating and then saying since I lost I didn�t cheat.

There are many people from these Indian Outsourcing companies who are switching to US comanies or even to local desi bodyshopping companies for various reasons...Like the ones below
1) If you are in US onsite, there is no guarantee that you would be onsite for the prolonged period you want. When the business need arises, you will have to go back at short notice. Most of the people quit these companies in US due to that reason alone.
2) They don't process GCs in general (very limited cases....)
3) Chances are that one may make more money based on the skill-set
However, if people continue to believe that these companies are just sort of "glorified body shoppers", nothing stops them.
But outsourcing is increasingly preferred by US corporates & these outsourcing companies are only going to prosper.....
Just the fact that you make more money outside is a proof of underpay.
also I read few months back that out of some 70K SWITCH ppl in usa, they filed GC for less than 100 employees. Do you think only 100 out of some 70K H1B wanted GC??? Another proof that they do not want their employees to move ahead.
Any way you argue, the truth is SWITCH is a glorified bodyshopper.
and that too glorified in india by indian media, not by US media.

Its beyond me, why would EB3 go back to 2001 when new numbers will be available beginning Oct 07. Disappointed and mad
No surprises for me at least. There will be only 816 new EB3 visas available for any country in October. This will move the dates at the most by a month or two and this will continue for ever until a new legislation is passed, that is why DC rally is all the more important and everyone should focus on that to bring in a change.
For folks wondering how I came to the 816 visa number
Total GC available = 140000
7% country limit = 9800
split for EB3 = 3266
spread for each qtr = 816
Good Luck to all and don't have high expectations because you will be disappointed when the bulletin comes out.

Just suck it up and go for it. It seems unfair but that is a fact of life. Think about what is 5K in 5-10 years time, once u get GC you and ur wife can get better paid jobs and make up for it.
I guess most of the folks here are busy preparing to apply for 485. I have different problem here.
My employer's attorney is charging me outrageous fees of around $5000 to
apply for 485, AP and EAD for me and my spouse. This excludes USCIS fees. I work on hourly basis, so I should be taking care of immigration fees. My employer is not allowing me to file through another law firm.
Do I have any other options. How much do they charge usually.
