time to sart a campaign.....hey I am legal, I applied for GC in 2001 and govt will give it to me after it has given to all 245i, and everyone and that happens to be in 2012, so how abt guys in 2002,2003,2004?
When it was time to give GC govt wasted all our numbers now they dont want to give us.
BTW is there really a law that disallows using unused visa number for a given fiscal year oafter the end of that fiscal year? If so where is it and how does it read like?

Thanks h1bworker! I had a call with their immigration lawyers
AC21 not an option since job descriptions are not similar - that in addition to the fact that EB2 app is for a different job.
The lawyer did bring up the fact that I will be taking a risk if I quit my current job and my GC gets approved or if I get an RFE before they can complete the interfiling. USCIS may push dates ahead in the last quarter (July VB) and my 10 year wait will be jeopardized.
My safest bet is to try to see if the employer will agree to start filing now and I join them when it 485 app is attached to new EB2...
Don't know if there are any other options - may post this as a separate question.
However, does filing AC21 (same or similar) cause a conflict with EB2 filing in this case? : Interesting question - here is my take - if you switch job you'll have to invoke AC21 portability to keep existing application alive. You may choose not to inform USCIS about the change in employment - another grey area.
Should they file and get I-140 approved and then only I should join them? : This may not be a viable option since filing for Labor takes 2 - 3 months (might be a lot quicker in your case as they are already doing the recruiting). Labor approval can take anywhere from 2 weeks to 1+ years and then I-140 prep and filing even in premium processing may take at least a month. Your new employer may not be willing to wait that long.

Hi Gurus,
My labor was approved in July'07 and I-140/485 were applied under EB2 category in Aug'07.
My qualification : Master of Engineering in Civil Engineering and B.Tech in Civil Engineering.
I got the below RFE from CIS :
The submitted ETA 9089 states the preferred position of Computer systems analyst requires a Masters degree in Engineering or related field.
Please submit a new educational evaluation based solely on the beneficiary's education when compared to a degree related to the computer indstry.
An acceptable evaluation must:
1) Consider formal education only, not practical training experience
2) did the applicant complete the U.S equivalant of high school before entering college
3) Provide detailed explanation of material evaluated
4) briefly state the qualifications and experience of the evaluator providing the opinion
The education evaluation I have submitted with I-140 includes my work experience. Please suggest me your ideas/experiences in getting the best education evaluation for my I-140 approval.
Thanks,
Sekhar
I think they are probing link of your Civil Engineering and Computer Analyst job. They are looking for specific computer oriented language courses that show you have formal education in that and that should corraborate your work experience letters. Its well known that getting EB2 for computer analyst etc oriented jobs is getting difficult. They are now questioning more and more as to why analyst oriented jobs should require Masters and #2 they are looking for links between Civil Engineering education and Computer oriented job that you are trying for.!!!
All the best.
Best Regards

There is nothing illegal about working part-time using EAD while working full-time on H1B. It has nothing to do with last entry into US. In fact, EAD has nothing to do with entering US. To enter US, you need either a valid visa or valid AP. IO won't even ask you about your EAD.
EAD and H1B are mutually exclusive. If you are maintaining proper H1 status (ie, have a valid H1 status and working full-time for the job for which you have H1), it is completely legal to do flip burgers or drive cabs using EAD to supplement your income. It does not affect H1 status. I have confirmed this with multiple attorneys on multiple occasions.

CORBA, is a Federal Government law to save individuals who loose job. Every insurance company should provide you this insurance for about 6 months (not sure about the length and price) at the Employer negotiated price. You should get a notification from your current insurance company each time you change your employer.
Then its upto you to take it for that limited time before you get your next job. What happens if we dont take the insurance in between? Next time you take insurance, if they find that u dont have insurance for some time, then they will not cover any pre existing conditions and they might ask you to take some tests. Its all headache.
But its worth finding out more details rather than ignoring it.

Guys,
Your help/guidance is needed on this strange situation.
I am still in India and I have got my H1B1 approved thru one employer. I am waiting on few documents from my employer who is in US. I am still waiting for these documents so that I can go for Visa stamping.
Apparantly, this employer is causing some issues in giving me all my supporting documents.
My question: can I find some other employer and transfer my H1B1 and then go for stamping thru this new employer?
You experience, knowledge will be appreciated.
Thanks,
pan123
You cannot apply for transfer your present H1 to new employer...The kind of documentation required will not available with you at this time..so filing for a new H1 is very good option...
Good Luck !!!

It is puzzling that EB3 World didn't move a single day. Per my calculations, it should move three months in each month.
My calcuations were based upon that there are about 100,000 applicants (excluding Indian) between year 2001 and 2005. Currently, China Mexico Philippine's cut off date is the same as ROW. I just assumed that there are about 35,000 visas available for ROW including China, Mexico, and Philipine (the remaining 10,000 for India) per year. In this case, it should move by three months in each month.
I accept that there are lots of loop holes in my calculations as it didn't move a single day.
Does anyone have a rough idea how many non Indian applicants out there between year 2001 and 2005?
I think many of you can do more accurate calculations based upon more reliable sources. Please show me how.
Many people say uselessness of predictions but I think we can predict to certain extent.
There are two things that make calculations uncertain : One, there is no way to know how many people applied for GC. Remember, many workers are exempt from the H1-B quota (people working in hospitals, universities and other non-profit research institutes). Then there are other dual-intent categories like L1 with no cap on them.Even USCIS does not know how many cap-exempt visas it issued.
Second, there is the operation of those two black-holes, PBEC and DBEC. Nobody knows how many apps are in there, nor do we know how slow/fast they will/ have been operating.
But one point is increasingly clear : retrogression is NOT an India and China specific issue. so far all of EB3 is retrogressed. The day may not be too far when that virus spreads to EB2. The only long-term solution is to unitedly fight for legislative change.

Anandrajesh,
Congrats and great job. However, I disagree with the salary part you
mentioned in your interview. You had mentioned that the salary used to
be 1/10 or even 1/20 of the US salary when you moved back to India. Do you
think this is correct ? I dont think that is a correct ratio
At times, unconsciously, we exagerate how bad it is in India while it is not.
Just my 2 cents. Again, this is not to find fault. Great job.
-------------------------------------
I was interviewed by National Public Radio(NPR) recently abt the whole immigration stuff. This can be heard on the following link
http://marketplace.publicradio.org/shows/2006/03/09/PM200603098.html
My 2 cents worth of thought, that has reached the National Audience. Getting Media Attention is pretty important with this fight.

H.R. 572: Comprehensive Immigration Reform Commission Act of 2007 Introduced 01/18/2007
People,
I dont want to sound pessimistic but do we think its necessary that we have to have some backup plan if the CIR bill gets into the mess it got into last year because of amnesty given to illlegal.
The WORST SUFFERERS will be LEGAL IMMIGRANTS who are at the mercy of this illegal immigrants bill.Do you people think that we need to discuss atleast (the IV core group) the back up strategy if the CIR gets into grid lock as it happened last year.
I think its worth a discussion.People any ideas.?
