All the best everyone and may all your PDs become current right away.
I am going back to the homeland.
Can't believe I put my life on hold for this long.
I feel free again to do as I choose.
Just imagining never having to track a visa date ever again makes me feel at peace.
A slave no more for a country that so willingly gives up so much in the name of false security.
Getting used to driving on the other side should be fun!
Take care!

I think we need to have a thread to report the name of such companies...
That actually might be a good idea. These companies that mess with employees and take advantage of their visa status, should be taught such a torrid lesson that any other freakin desi consultants will think twice b4 messing with their employees. It's a sad thing that we Indians exploit other Indians in the name of "It's JUST Business".

I am not saying Thanks and Good bye, As you see even after my GC I am still responding to your message. I am fully supporting the VI initiative. but the problem is that USCIS will do only what they think it is right and not what is really right. Me being in the Q for so long , I will never forget the Horrors of waiting for GC, even after getting the GC.
We as indians are divided lots in every area, we are like CRABS. certainly I am not one of those CRABS, My friends will give a ample proof about that.
In matter of fact, As a community, we are not PROUD about OURSELVES and our HINDU CULTURE, we cannot make any DHARMIC efforts to come under ONE UMBRELLA and fight for our cause. IV is one initiative, which is good but not enough, because do we get any help from our Indian Embassy or any Indian Organisation in America to support us, NEVER. this is because we DONOT LOOK UPTO OUR INNER VOICE AS HINDUS. I am not saying this to you in particular, I am referencing this as an INDIAN COMMUNITY. SO PLEASE NOTHING PERSONAL.
every one of us is a GOOD PRACTISING HINDU BECAUSE WE LIVE LIFE WITH OUR DHARMIC VALUES AND PRINCIPLES. IT IS TIME TO COME TOGATHER AND IMPLEMENT THOSE VALUES AS A HINDU SOCIETY.
thanks for your suggestion i really appreciate that.
:)
Dont mean to flame you, but you say that you are not a crab and the next moment you bring up religion, faith, Indian etc and associate that to IV's
goal.

Hi
I left my previous employer more than 6 months back , he didnt paid me my final paycheck and i complained to DOL since 3 months...now wehn i asked for my W2 he said me to do whatever i feel and he is adamant at not giving it....moreover he said that his company has suffered losses worth 25K and his lawyer has sent a legal notice in this regard....and when i said how will we file taxes he says he wished for me to be out of status and go back.....
Since i have complained to DOL and also it is more than 6 moths since i left his organisation giving proper notice and have email confirmations, can he issue me legeal notice.....?please advice...
He is also saying that he has written to USCIS that I am fraud,....though I have been working in fortune 100 companies and now also working in reputed company and never lied for anything and was on project from day 1 since I came to States....? can USCIS cause problems for me in future...
Also, he seems to have closed his company..
Folks please advice....

In my opinion, having the right skills and qualifications is one's security, and that�s what I have always banked on while moving so forward on a H1.
I agree with you on this part. Many people became complacent after finding a good job and lost their edge. This applies to even GC holders also.
On the other hand, I find it extremely difficult to penetrate the upper levels of jobs with just H-1B alone. Horizontal growth does not fascinate me any more. GC is the key for upward mobility.

I bet there are tons of fine print to be qualified as "Illegal", I keep hearing " people who CAME (entered) ILLEGALLY before jan 2007..." , so " legal to ILLEGAL conversion " will not qualify i think.
What is important for you now that you want to become illegal ?
-> To win
-> Self respect
-> Financial achievement
-> Career achievement
-> Family support

This is crazy if this is how USCIS or DHS or whoever is going to interpret the law. We need some clarification from an experienced attorney. From the visa bulletin in Nov 2005, it does seem that USCIS is saying over subscribed countries will only get 7% in FY2006 and AC21 will not apply. If its only 2800 for EB2 and EB3 India then priority dates will never reach somewhere like 2005 or 06 for Indian nationals.
May be this explains why priority dates have got stuck at Jan 03 for EB2 India since october 2006.

When you change jobs after 485 Filing, is it necessary to change with an EAD or I can get an H1B transfer. I may get laid off, and EAD has not come yet and I don't have the time for EAD to come through. Can I transfer H1B while 485 is pending for less than 180 days without it affecting 485. I will make sure that job duties are similar and I am fairly certain that employer will not revoke I-140. My assumption if that I need to be working on H1B or EAD to maintain legal immigration status and there can't be any gap between the two employments.

I work with corporate lawyers everyday, and yes they are very smart. However, immigration lawyers are the bottom of the barrel.
I have nothing against lawyers, most are hard-working and smart. But that smartness also makes them confuse others and ultimately its the clients who have to pay for the smartness of the lawyers.
I am totally against that.
making a living is one thing, but talk about confusing people and milking them for the money !!!

I think the most confusion is caused by our willingness to interpret the definition of discrimination too broadly. Let's see what exactly is done here when an employer refuses a visa sponsorship for a prospective employee.
I think no one on this forum will deny that an employment authorization H1b folks possess is limited in nature and valid only as long as the H1b recipient is working for the sponsoring employer. Should such an employee leave his sponsoring employer the employment authorization ceases to exist and a new employer must seek another employment authorization for his newly hired employee, a process commonly known as an H1b visa transfer.
According to the Workplace Fairness website the following stands true:
An employer should not ask about your citizenship status during a job interview. The employer can only notify you as a job applicant that, should a job be offered to you, you will be expected to provide evidence that you are legally entitled to work in the US within the first three days of starting work. The employer should say this to every job candidate, as saying this selectively may be illegal discrimination.
The only valid question during an interview or as a part of a pre-screen process could be "Are you authorized to work for any employer in this country?" This question will NOT constitute any discrimination, as per the law employers have to verify the work authorization status of all new hires by the way of I-9 form filing within 3 day period after employment commencement.
NO H1b person can answer YES to this question, therefore an employer has a right to refuse employment to any such applicant. Employer's willingness to apply for a visa transfer is a pure good will and no employer can be forced to do so under the current law.
As for the insurance, banking, etc., the decision to extend such services is always based on the risk assessment. You might argue that an H1b holder does not represent a greater risk for a US lender (insurer) than an ordinary US citizen. I am sure that all these insurance companies have their own studies somewhere which prove that people with no permanent status in the country represent a greater risk for their business, than those who possess such status. Providing that there are some stories about H1b workers who maxed out their credit lines, abandoned their houses and fled the country after being laid off, I do not think that any court in this country would side with non-immigrants on this matter.
But we can always keep complaining on here how badly treated and unprotected we are.

thats a good idea, and at the same time we also need to show our numbers.
I would say, lets make this a $5 monthly membership org. IV can help you much more than your Immigration attorney can.
I'm not aware of any one else who directly deals with USCIS and with chambers of govt.
Yes focus is needed right now, since after 4 years CIR is off the table and its time for piece meal bills which need renewed campaigning
Many are a bit selfish just concerned with their particular case and want a quick answer, but don't want to help the high skilled community as a whole.
you can click on member list and just on top the current count is 45,676
Tony, IV core is not even willing to consider the $12/yr idea, leave alone $5/mth.
Send a message to Pappu and see what he says.

Define "unprofessional" and how it applies to the replies here?
In what part of the world is standing up against drug peddlers and traffickers is limited to "personal" interpretations of moral? Drug laws are not intended to satisfy some lawmakers personal morals, but it is there because selling drugs is illegal regardless of what yours, mine or anyone else's personal moral fabric is.
What the hell are you talking about and what are YOU smoking?
Listen kid, i don't wanna get into a mud slinging immature tough-behind-the-keyboard match with you, i've seen you respond in here and its funny how you keep using the same line over and over again, lol.
Again, if you don't get the difference between the tone of a professional response against a personal opinion based lash-back then thats your problem not mine :)
