You can send Pay Pal contributions to any E-mail on earth, including info AT Immigrationvoice.org. It goes to the E-mail id as eCheck.
Only requirement is that the recepient (human) of the E-mail should collect the amount from PayPal. Not sure how this happens, I haven't received any money from PayPal ( or other means for that matter :D)
The E-mail id I gave earlier is IV merchant E-mail id @ PayPal. It would've made the transfer automated.
Since there seems to be some apprehensions about revealing it (isn't it just an E-mail id?!), I have blanked out my old post.
My only point was... there is a reason they encourage $100 minimum for a one time contribution. They could have simply published the email id and opened the doors to $5/ $10 contributors... i.e. the folks who say they would happily contribute this small amount if they had that option.
BTW I think you can send money over paypal only to email ids registered with paypal. info@iv is not, i believe.

Not sure about the news, but based on my and our experiences with uscis,I have to say these two IO are EXCEPTIONALLY friendly. You can casually walk up to an IO after taking fingerprint? I thought you would be arrested if you go to any uscis office after taking the finger print. You will receive call from IO to give missing material? I suppose there is something called "RFE", and they are never afraid to use RFE, even for most minor and unnecessary reasons. Gee, if only half of the IO are good as this, there will not be any immigration problem anymore.
Today we've received Two Sensational News About VISA# consumed.

She showed me DOS Memo she just received about no more visas for India/China EB2 for this fiscal year. She did infoact show us the memo.
She did check mine and my wife's Name Check. Luckily our name check is cleared and she told we have to just wait for the visa numbers.

I dont think so, my friend gave me this information - i am not sure its reliable or not;
One of my friend received a call from IO Adjucating officer yesterday
and it seems adjucating officer asked him to hurry up to send his wife's medicals because
there were only 14K more visa numbers left as he did not include his wife's medicals (she was pregnant when they were filing I-485).
He received his approval notice but not his wife's due to the missing medicals
so relax guys - there could be atleast 13k visa numbers left.

Two Sensational News Which one is true?
Cableching says VISA# reached numerical limit and chintainfogc's friend said 14K / 13K VISA left.

I had this question - how the 50k would be used? If you could post in greater detail perhaps more members would be enlightened to contribute
The only way to enlighten yourself and others is to get yourself and your friends involved and participating towards the effort. You will automatically see the sacrifices made by others who are not thinking about "I" all the time.
No sensible member would expect detailed spending reports to be published on a public forum. I hope you weren't expecting that?

On a positive note, the best that we can do is, learn from our surroundings. We can learn a lot from Republicans to understand what not to do.

RAGZ,
Are we still compiling or the stoires have started going out to the right people. It was amazing to watch Sen FIenstein talk about a poor hardworking undocumented worker in the US. She was so eloquent. Every passing day makes u feel more like a 2nd class citizen. Anyways, let us chug on. I had sent my story. Pls let me know If you would any further action from the story senders like myself.
Dear friends, as I read all of your stories, I cannot help but relate it to mine. Even as I write this though, I am in the middle of a dilemma - I am being offered a promotion to a Director position and I cannot decide whether to accept it or not.
I have been in the US for over eight years on an H1 and have been working for a Fortune 20 firm as a Manager for the last four. My company applied for my Labor Cert back in Dec 2002 and while it cleared State in May 2003, the application was stuck in Federal processing for more than a year. Just as it seemed like they were getting to applications that had been transferred in during May 2003, the BEC took over and I literally felt like the rug had been pulled from under my feet! It's been almost two years since then, but I have seen no progress at all - zero, nada, zilch!
Meanwhile, I have been working hard at my company sorting my way through leadership changes, reorgs and changes in vision and strategy. While all of my colleagues and friends were applying to new positions and getting promoted, I lay low. Four years in the same job - I can tell you that is a looooong time! It isn't just that work starts to become a drag but also life itself seems to be in limbo and the frustration of the wait starts to spill over into personal life.
I got married two years ago and my wife, bless her heart, has been making a valiant effort to keep busy and pursue other interests, since she is on H-4. However, I know she can't wait to start working.
As all of you know, it takes a lot to succeed in the US economy and be recognized, but I have worked hard. Not only have I paid taxes for 8 years, but I also feel like I have paid my dues. I have an MBA from a top b-school and skills that are in demand. I cannot help but wonder, whether we are meant to waste our lives away?? You start feeling like a second-class human. I know I can always go back to my home country but I have invested a lot of my life here. We need justice!

Story in brief: I came to the US in August 1999 on a F-1 visa to pursue my
Masters in Civil Engineering at XXX University. Prior to coming here, I had four years of experience in the civil engineering field. It is important to note that I came to the US with funding from XXX University in the form of partial tuition waiver and assistantship. My research was also funded by the XXX Department of Transportation. While I was completing my MS, my wife who also is a BE (Civil) from India, started to pursue her goal of obtaining a BS in Computer Science. I graduated in 2001 and started working in the office where I am currently employed. My wife graduated in 2003 with a BS with Distinction in Comp. Sci. We were full of hopes that with a distinction, getting a job in her field would be easy and that is where the bubble burst. Repeatedly she was told by many companies in the state of XXX that they do not hire international students or sponsor their work visas so she should "try" again when she recives her permanent residency! And this while we knew people these companies brought in on contract basis to do the work, people like my wife with no experience. Anyways, my wife is now so depressed and frustrated that I am worried about her health. Imagine having a BS in a top notch field but not getting a job because companies won't hire or sponsor internationals!!
In the meantime, I have been working on significant transportation related jobs (designing foundations, slopes and soil engineering for highways and interstates) for projects funded by the Federal Highway Administration and the Department of Transportation. In the last five years, the total construction cost of the highways in which I have been involved in easily exceeds USD 350 million dollars!! And the best part is that I am the only geotechnical engineer in the XXX state office. I believe that I have certainly paid the taxpayers of the state of XXX back the faith they had shown in me when the University (it is a public university) decided to fund my education by staying and working in the State of XXX and utilizing the education and experience gained to make lives better for the people of the state of XXX by being involved in designing safer, faster roads at the best possible cost.
Currently, my labor was filed under PERM in April 2006. I will be in the EB3
category, subject to retrogression and my wife will not be able to work for
another 7/8 years, by which time she will most likely have lost the
competitive edge and enthusiasm.

Please create a poll and also start a special funding drive. I am committing $ 200 for this effort.
Hopefully desi3933 can come by and perform a reality check on this proposal.
An interesting idea to say the least. Out of box suggestion.
However, there are few things, from legal point of view, it needs to overcome. I will post my detailed comments this afternoon.
Once again, this is a great idea!

I don't realize why should anyone blame cableching...??
It seems to me that he just shared the information that he got and the way he understood. Would anyone else have done it any differently?
I dont think it really matters whether they have used up all visas now vs at the end of sept. Because, there were "X" number of visas to be given out and so "X" number of applicants would be chosen randomly (USCIS Lottery style..:p) and that happend...
If at all, this is a good news, that they actually finished this lottery process and so nothing will go to waste...(It would be too bad if california Lotto comes out with a winner number ticket that does not belong to anyone!!!)
And, we will never know whether this news is true or it is a misunderstanding on the part of cableching or the IO lady. (I personally dont think either of them are lying...but it could be a misunderstanding, especially with regard to category EB3 vs EB2). Regardless whether it is ture or a misunderstanding, we will see approvals coming through over next several months. (Just like what happened in June 07). So it is quilte likely that many of the waiting people would get their GCs if their names is picked up in the lottery!! So good luck to all...
I also believe that such memo WILL need to be sent out to all USCIS local offices as they do process some applications in some cases (with interviews etc...) and they do need to know if all the numbers are exhausted.
