can we get live or recorded audio or video? C-spna should be doing it? Can anyone comment ? Thanks. We will provide a link (and of course ask to join IV and ask them to make contributions).
Thanks to the efforts of everyone at IV and QGA, we have the golden opportunity for a member of IV to actually testify before Congress. No kidding!

To their credit, the editor has added a comment for further reading on the legal limbo faced by foreign-born scientists from a page one story written last year.

Dr Ona (= DrOna = drona) :D
WSJ could find 1 article in 1+ year but have 4+ articles on undocumented workers per week, with a CIR dead for ever. I tried to post this but they closed the blog.
Only a forever ignorant can continue to post that media (and everyone else) is ignorant about the distinction between legal and illegal. They closed this blog because the blog was getting filled with EB GC issues which are not of interest. Here is a 4+ day open WSJ blog (http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2007/10/01/that-was-fast/) on H2B.
BTW, blog post has more effect then email because others can read a post and hence puts more pressure.

Agree on ur second point, however I was surprised with the context that "ok lets see how much we can buy the MS course and how soon can i finish it" as supposed to it will be great to do MS and lets see how I can furtherey ar my career with an added benefit of getting C in case of GC process.
Again just my thoughts.
How can some one further their career if they cannot take a higher qualification job because of AC21 constraints. MS or not i am sure that these people are qualified for better jobs, but they cannot advance their career because of lack of green card. To rectify that situation they are planning to do MS. So they are planning to do MS to further their career as you suggested which according to you is the right and moral way. I don't see any reason for surprise

One thing that forces you to believe its true is the date itself, why 8 MAY ? it somehow paints a picture that somebody did calculated the remaining visa numbers and arrived at the exact comfortable date. Guys, chances are its fake, but you never know. :)

When the EAD and AP dates processing dates are backlogged, there isn't much advantage to early filing.
WithoutGCAmigo, no panic. there are processing dates which you should be worried about after you file EAD / AP etc.
To file it goes per visa bulletin. Hope you are upto date with that.
thats the talk of the town, sorry COUNTRY now
IV memeber experts - should be on the way to throw more light / clarify

Looks like the guy we engage for our cause gets a shot to speak about immigration on WSJ and guess what he forgets us all together. Great job for picking QGA core team.
I am just reposting my post from yesterday just so that the people on core can read my thoughts�
�Guys,
I don�t mean to insult your intelligence, but who ever came up with ideas to ask, celebrities, a noble laurite and other accomplished folks from the immigration community to send faxes does not have the slightest plan on how to make this succeed.
If this is the kind of ideas the �lobbyists� QGA is giving us, may we need some fresh blood in helping us out. I completely agree �eb3retro� in working with AILA.org in helping us get our message across. PLEASE STOP THIS INSANE IDEA OF SENDING FAXES all the time either from members of IV or asking other people to do it on our behalf. We are hurting ourselves and don�t even know it. As I have said in my earlier posts �We need the Erin Brockovich of immigration to help us on this, and I am the AILA or similar organization can do this for us.�
Good Luck.
Other than saying "we need the Erin Brockovich," couldn't you do more for our volunteer organization? Why don't you put on a halter top and become the Erin Brockovich.
It is easy to criticize what others are doing. You can modulate what IV does simply by becoming more active and involved yourself.
Also, I don't think QGA ever asked IV to get celebrity endorsements. That idea was from some other member like yourself.

As long as you had an I-140 approved earlier and 180 days crossed after the RD of I-485, you are safe to move on to a new job using AC21 portability. Even if your ex-employer withdraws the support for the approved I-140, your I-485 would not denied and it would be considered on its own merits.

1. The company is not mean to revoke my 140 unless it is required by law to revoke 140 for all lay offs, Please advise.
2. What options do i have now to retain my GC process

I have purchased 4 firearms during my nonimmigrant status, including a handgun. Nonimmigrants can generally not own firearms in the US. Though, there is an exception to the law if you possess a valid hunting license and have resided in the US for more than 90 days. I took a hunting class, which was a prerequisite for the hunting license and also had very good firearm safety information.
For long-guns, you will need some paperwork before you go to the gunshop (utility bills from at least last 90 days, hunting license, Driver's license, your I-94 number). The background check will probably be delayed a day or two while FBI checks your immigration status. Your gun seller will call you when they get the ok.
For handguns, there may be additional paperwork. I had to apply for handgun permits with the local sheriff's office. The person you first deal with will probably be unaware of the exception for individuals with hunting licenses. You will probably need to take a copy of the law (ICE has a pamphlet on firearm laws for nonimmigrants, take a copy with you) and talk to a supervisor. Once you get the permit you take the permit and your DL to the gun seller plus all the paperwork I listed for long gun purchase. Let me know if you have additional questions. Good luck.
I have lived in Nevada before. I think in that state and many other western states (where guns laws are more liberal) you have to have passport, I-94 and utility bills proving you have lived in NV for 6 months. That's it. You don't need hunting license to get a gun license.
Here is the biggest irony:
IN order to own a gun, FBI needs only 2 days to check your background.
IN order to get 485 approved, FBI takes months or years to do a background check.
I guess green-card is a more lethal weapon than a handgun.

LOA...means I am still employed without benefits ...at my old company.
what you said makes sense..this is how I am looking at it
-join new company
-donot send in ac 21 paperwork
-if i have rfe send in paperwork from present employer which will only be a generic letter----(i don't know how much detail uscis likes)
-the reason i want to do LOA is that this way i will be sure they will not revoke i -140
-what do the gurus feel ?
BTW--gave u green --thanks for the reply
If LOA can stop the old employer from revoking I-140, I would say, go for it. But just make sure you don't land into any other trouble (like non-competent etc. just an example, may not be relevant in your case, but you get the idea...).
Also, discuss with the new employer and make sure they are ok with supporting you in case of an RFE. From your response, looks like they might know what it is. What I can think of is, consult an attorney and discuss what kinda RFEs you can get that needs employer help (mostly EVL, ability to pay), prepare a sample response letter for both and check with the new employer they are ok with providing them if necessary.

While I am awaiting those changes, I did the same search again at Google. The first 2 results are for immigrationvoice.org

This is the latest on the Visa capture bill.
This thread is to track the progress of S.1085 legislation.
http://www.thomas.gov/cgi-bin/query/D?c111:1:./temp/~c1111gR7Z4::
http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=s111-1085&tab=committees
This recapture bill was introduced in the US senate and it has been referred to the Senate Judiciary Committee. It has ten members with 6 democrats who usually favor immigrants , including the chairman Sen. Charles Schumer, one of the sponsors of the bill. It will clear the committee, no doubt, but how fast?
IV should focus on this legislation getting passed. It has provisions for the unused visas in any category for the oversubscribed quota. This will definitely help reduce the backlog.
Lets focus on getting this bill passed. It is for the people who play by the rules and obey the laws of the country. Who pay taxes and contribute to the economy. Lets try to get this bill passed and capture all the VISAs lost due to the inefficiency of DoL and USCIS.

I signed up to for 20$ per month a while back. In addition I did many one time contributions.
There should be an option for people to contribute smaller sums on a regular basis. I believe in the say 'little drops of water ...'. If the threshold is lower, there will be more contributions.
In my opinion, the fear that folks that are contributing 50$ will switch to lower sums is unfounded. There is nothing that stops them from stopping their contributions altogether even now.
Secondly, I did not answer the poll. The question is not very clear to me

Please ...let us agree on this ...will get an EAD even if i-140 is pending while 485 is filed correct??
This is not a democracy or an American Idol show where it matters what most people think!
There is a law that clearly states it - you can file and are eligible to interim AOS benefits such as AP & EAD even when the I-140 is pending. I have colleagues (who applied 140 & 485 concurrently) get their EADs and APs long before they got AOS approva.
It's a different thing, not not to be confused with, that most people choose to continue with their H1 and not use EAD or AP because of the uncertainty until the 140 and 485 is approved.

we can come up with many excuses that would easily fall under "emergent personal or bona fide business reasons" category.
I thought we must get ready with some reasons, when using AP to re-enter US. I have come up with some of my own that I may use:
1) Grandpa or Grandma is sick (most common reason, perhaps no body uses it as a reason anymore)(bona fide personal reason)
2) Land dispute (bona fide business reason)
3) Parents home need urgent repair (bona fide business reason)
4) Water shortage problem (bona fide business reason)
My Wife was had to go to India for a medical treatment. The cost of the treatment is much less then here in the US (also most of the health insurance dont cover it). She plans to go back in the next few months, Is that a valid reason?
