I knew that slowly the antis are gaining more and more strength as a result the noose is getting tighter and tighter around us (and will eventually reach our neck). I didn�t expect this fast:
Texas change in driver�s license laws in last 6 months:
1) We knew that instead of the usual 6 years expiry date, they now want to see proof of visa documents and the expiry date is set to the expiry of the visa document.
2) If visa document is expiring less than 6 months, then we CANNOT get a drivers license.
Driver�s license laws - Latest Changes:
1) The driver�s license that all non-citizens will get will be Vertical and NOT the usual horizontal. This license looks very different than the conventional Texas DL and it also has to ominous word �temporary visitor�. I was okay with word being mentioned, but making the drivers license look so different from normal (vertical and not horizontal is taking it too far). I am worried about possible discrimination everywhere wherein we show our IDs.
2) Chance of Address not possible online: Previously, its only during license renewal, you had to get that new unique non-citizen card. Now, they are not allowing even change of address online! The website says, we don�t qualify for change of address online as well. This means that even for change of address, we have to go to the DL office and surrender of our old good unexpired DLs.
Any inputs? Texans? Others? What have been your experiences? In other states, can you change your address online without any hassle?

Hi!
My lawyer filed my application in Nebraska on July 2 ( it should have been filed in Texas). Probably it will get transfered to Texas?
But I have not recieved any updates on my case
- no checks cashed
- no reciepts issued.
The USCIS asks me to wait for 3 months ( till Oct 2) to help in any way.
Is any one in similar situation. Is this normal?

I think that instead of exhausting our energy on this issue, we better think how to make progress in our fight against injustice. And to all those who are using an abusing language .... please show your guts when you go for your next visa stamping or when entering the United States on a port of entry and try to use the similar language.... you surely will get an answer/lesson you will remember for rest of your life.

Basically, there are lot of people on the other site, who don't want to join IV but participate:) They think that they might be accidentally causing a benefit to IV by joining IV:)
This seems strange...no reason you cant be a part of more than one organization
and what kind of benefit as we talking about here?
are they also EB immigrants with the same Goal....do they have other different goals?
They want to come help with advocating...but do not want to benefit us...so they want to benefit us by helping out but they don't want to officially be seen as benefiting us?? lol seems like a weird funny paradox :D
Maybe they can help with logistical support n let IV deal with the actual talking to senators part

All,
My employer revoked the i140 of a person after 180 days. He did not reveal this information to me and used labor substitution for me.
The other person used AC21 and got his 485 approved. INS has denied my I140 since a 485 has already been approved and there can be only one GC on one labor. INS says that once the 485 is approved that job ceases to exist.
My company is saying that they have done this in the past and got approvals. They are saying that they applied the I140 substitution long before the 485 approval of the other person.
Now they are saying that they will appeal that the other guy never had the intention of working for the comapany.
Is there any chance for the I140 approval and using the existing labor ? If not will the INS help me keep the Priority Date.
Does anyone have knowledge of such cases (or) know the results of such appeals.
Thanks !
I personally think you are better off finding another job and another employer and starting the process all over again if you have time and energy.
If this guy (employer) can do this to someone else , what is the guarentee that he will not do it you. Ofcourse you may argue substitution is eliminated etc ...But this guy (Employer) is clearly dishonest ...and he could be very well be running a business based on the US immigration system.
I think we as a community better off if you can reveal who the employer is.

What makes you think that everybody fakes theirs resumes? You are talking like its just a matter of fact that faking resume is the only way people get jobs (and what is this project business????). I now know that YOU got your job by faking your skills. And shame on you for doing that!
You conveniently missed out the 4th reason in your list
The employers filed for H-1Bs kowing very well they did not have a job to give to the candidate. The immigrants would come to the US, get "trained" to lie their way into a job, pratice more lying, fake reumes (like you have), then get into a project, get fired in 1 month or 2, go on bench, unpaind, find another project by practising more lying, and so on.
My friend, I take my statement back when I included you in the genuine candidate group. You are no better than the OP. You fakers deserve to end up in prison!
To answer your original question: not a single line on my resume is fake. And I'm not working on "projects". I have a full-time job and I'm with the same employer for the past 4 years!!!!!!!!!
Get out of your desi consultancy world for a change and see how the world outside of your little fakers club works. Not everybody is lying their way into "projects".
Pllleeeease dont act sacrosant.. dont tell me you never faked your resume about your project to get a break.
The reason the DESI body shop companies got raided and charged are because they
1. filed H1 from IOWA because they knew that the wait period was few weeks and then used those.
2. They used faked/forged documentation to do that, not one but probably hundreds of cases. You dont get charged with mail forgery etc for nothing
3. They used those H1's to employ the candidates in other areas which beats the LCA from IOWA since they got certified from IOWA DOL that jobs aspirants of that nature did not exist in that area for the salary they were getting paid..
You sound as if you want that guy to leave everything and go back to his home country because he has lost his job. I BET if you were in a similar situation you would do something like that and dont be pretentious about it and be a hypocrite. If it becomes untenable for the person to stay any longer here without the project he/she will leave anyway.
I have just pointed out a way to get a reprieve for few extra days and its not going to cause a 6 year backlog in your dates.. so chillout
peace

Those who are yet to send the letters, please send it. Those who already sent them, please ask your friends. Those who feel more strong about GC and believe that IV can work for our benefit, print 10 copies at least and get the signatures from your friends directly.
All in all, let use +ve energy that will make this campaign successful, rather than questioning other motivated members' intentions.

We should put end to Lou's lies. Let's be creative. We thought of the flower campaign, we all have higher degrees. There should be a way how to stop this guy. I think we are the only ones who can do it.
By the way, Lou's ancestors came to USA also legally like us. What is the difference then? Really the only people who have the right to criticize the legal immigration to USA are the native Americans. I know that this argument would never success with the general public here but I believe it's true.

If you have a project, there are companies who will keep $6 hr and 10% as payroll taxes.
Let me know, if you want more details.
P.S. I am not connected with the company, but I know people who worked in that company for years.
I know of a company which will keep $2 + 10% for payroll taxes. A lot better than the one above.
There is so much competetion in this space that people have reduced their margins to next to nothing.

One of my friends had similar denial. He approached Sheela Murthy, they did appeal MTR for him... later he got approved... Make sure you go with a good lawyer who can bring you out of the situation... I know, it would cost you little money but it's worth trying especially if your PD is pretty old... BTW, what is your priority date and 140 filing date?

Thanks for your reply. My main question is, if I do the H1B transfer (to a company other than the one that filed my labor, 140, 485), who has to submit the application for my spouse's 485 (when the priority date becomes current), my new employer or the old one that originally filed my 485?
Thanks.
your wife's petition is based off yours, you dont need any LC/I-140 filing documents for that. Your I-485 receipt and/or I-140 approval notice copy is what you will need to include in her application. Other than that there is nothing needed from either X or Y. So it does not matter whether the petition is filed by an attorney from X, from Y, or from your own independent attorney. You can even file it yourself without involving attorneys...

Can you pick an year and month for EB2-India for the October 2008 Visa Bulletin (start of new fiscal year)?
Ron Gotcher believes EB2-India will be somewhere at 2002/2003.
Even the prediction of end of the universe could be made more accurately than what will happen to the visa bulletin. It's true there may be retrogression in Sep 08 for EB2-I, but the movements back and forth are likely to be minimal.

What will be my status after i file my I485?
My current I-94 will expire on 16th Sep 2007 (on the day my current visa stamp in my passport expires and my current H1 B is set to expire Mid April 2008).
I am planning to make a trip to Cannda or someplace to get a new I-94 as soon as i get my new passport (i had sent it for renewal on june 2nd). But i am a little worried about my status if i am unable to make the trip.
So my question is what will be my status after 16th sep 2007 (once i file for I485 (first week of July2007) and my I-94 expires on 16th Sep 2007)?
Appreciate any responses ...
Your question is not clear but when you say I-94 I assume you mean the I-94 that you got the last time you entered the country, right? The expiration date on that has nothing to do with your status as long you have an approved I-797 for your H1B extension till April 2008. You are in status till that time.
But you do need an unexpired Visa stamp on your passport if you leave the country and want to come back to the US.
So the way I see it, even after filing 485 you will continue to be in status till April 2008 and then I am sure you will extend that for another term if your I-485 is still pending.
As for going to Canada to get a new I-94, it may not work because they do not make you surrender your old I-94 when you go to Canada and so therefore do not issue a new I94 when you return after a short trip to Canada.
