In America - anybody can say a racial slur against you and they will not be prosecuted under law - you can also do the same without fear of prosecution. Although both of you might loose your jobs because you work for a private company - they have the right to fire anybody they want. First and foremost - please respect the freedom of speech - words dont kill!
Here are a few things that might help shut up folks who talk against you...
1) There is no reason to be overly sentimental about anything (being sentimental and having a sense of entitlement is a desi trait that needs to be gotten rid of as soon as you get off that plane at the airport - it is something that should not have been there in the first place. You are not special, this is not your country, the ppl over here are not dumb, you are here on business and maintain that attitude. If somebody misbehaves with you tell outside of work, them to f*** off - if somebody does that at work - you can reply to them without using abusive language - because abusive language might get you fired. If you HR is effective complain to them - but I prefer to handle it at an individual level - because I am not scared - thats the beauty of America)
2) Dress properly - get a haircut and dont use cooking oil instead of gel. Get rid of the moustache if you have one. Make sure you dont stink. Dressing up smartly elevates your image - remember this country is very image conscious - which I think it should be. Dressing nicely and smelling good will not hurt anybody. To all desi women - please get rid of all the facial + body hair that is visible. Please wear makeup - because you may not be naturally beautiful. Donot act like slobs - nobody likes that.
3) Respect boundaries and dont make other ppl smell your food.
4) Be positive in your attitude, improve your communication skills and dont act servile.
5) Most desis are hard working and responsible people - nothing should hold them back - not certainly the need for an image makeover.
All fellow desis take care and enjoy your life here - life is too short to be depressed about the green card everyday. Most important thing is you stay happy everyday - here or in India.

I can confirm that DC allows you to renew online without looking at your immigration status. If you live in DC, make sure you renew online as I got it renewed for 4 years online.

there are class war democrats, what do you expect out of them. People who think democrats are good for immigrants this should be an eye opener. ofcourse if you were earning 5.15$ an hour and cleaning the democrats toilets and tending there front yards then they would have shown "compassion" to you. you earn way too much to get democrats compassion.

If you are in IT-only discrimination you will face is against a fellow IT worker who is willing to work 14 hours a day.Caste ism politics is valid for less fortunate 70% of indian population who are not part of urban India.

If your case is older than 12 months from the date of judgement you can have your case expunged from public records. As of today your's is a public record and is on every entry point in the country. As per immigration laws the IO has the authority to turn you back if you have been found guilty. The best for you is to have the expungement of your case and no one will have the access to your case except FBI.. This may take anywhere 2-3 months from the date you file for expungement..
Avoid travelling till your expungement is done..to be considered for expungement there should not be any other sace pending against you.
Good Luck.. talk to your attorney and file for it even if you are not travelling it will be good for you for future employment etc. also..
RV
Getting expungement wouldnot help in his case.
For immigration purposes, his conviction stands.
Everytime when he visits consulate for a visa or enters USA at POE, he needs to indicate this on documents and provide explanation (if asked ) with relevant documents.

My wife's H4 expires on Oct 1, 2007......We plan to file our I-485 by July 16, 2007.......I am sure it will take atleast 90 days to get her EAD.....whats her status between Oct1,2007 till the time EAD gets approved?......Will she be in valid status during that period?
She will be in AOS Pending status after Oct 1st, 2007 due to pending I-485 application. EAD does not provide any status.
What is your status? I assume H1-B. You can file for H1 and H4 extensions.
Please check and verify details with your attorney/lawyer. This is NOT a legal advice.

I believe best mode's analysis is correct based on the following from the daily dairy
"By 55 yeas to 40 nays .. Senate rejected the motion to waive ...with respect to Cornyn Amendment No. 2339 (to Amendment No. 2327), to provide interim relief for .... Subsequently, the point of order that the amendment, was not germane, was sustained, and the amendment thus fell. "
My interpretation: the vote was not on Cornyn's amendment; ...; it was out of order because it did not qualify as an amendment to this bill.
Because 40 Dems voted no on the waiver does not mean they are opposed to the amendment; they just did not want to vote on this amendment on this bill.

Ever since the Do-Nothing(Specially about immigration) congress is ousted,
I hear more about Immigration on various news channels.
This is a good news for sure.
Something positive will definitely happen in coming few months.

my friend, pretty much every place in US in unsafe.
from the news: "The motive behind the killing is not known but Murthy, an official of the state-owned Bharast Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL), quoted Vishal's friends as saying that some African Americans shot him after an altercation. "
Not to disrespect the read, but people should realize what they are getting into before they get into arguments or brawl. This is not India.
yeah.. I was also thinking about this recently. In India if you get into a scrape its a punch (or two, or three) and people part ways. Here its likely (depending on where you are) the other person will draw a gun.
I tried to apply for a firearm license, but atleast in CA apparently they allow only citizens and permanent residents to apply for one. That sucks. For tax purposes I am a 'permanent resident', but not if I want a firearm to protect my family. The 2nd amendment applies only to citizens!!
So another reason to keep looking at the visa bulletins now. Once i get a GC I buy a house and get a gun. The american dream. ;-)

I got a FP notice for next month. It is certainly not related to AP or EAD renewal, since I don't have any pending AP or EAD renewal. I got my EAD renewed last March and AP in May. So hoping that I got the FP notice since they started looking at my 485 application and something positive will be end result.
Good luck.
Did you leave US and come back during last year?

Hello there ,
From now onwards visa dates will be stable. I mean little or big but most of time forward jump .. Not a big swing that we saw for couple of years.
What bothers me is SPILL OVER. CIS told that EB2 India and China is under their annual limit.EB2 ROW has very less labor compare to last years. For first quarter they had approx 700 LC. if you apply same math then 2800 ~ 3000 LC and 7500 visa needed for all EB2 Row.
Total EB2 has 40k. India and china consume 6k together. Now there should be SPILL of 24k visas to Eb2 India and china.
I am not talking about EB1 Spill ( Which is current till date ) . VO told that EB4 will have cutoff date for Still there can be spill from Eb5.
If no SPILL THEN DATE WILL NOT MOVE SINGLE DAY IN SEP. IF SPILL FROM EB2 only then it will move till MID 2004 . and If more spill then I see we will crossing 2004.

There is no big secret, except little bit of planning and starting something.
I came here in 1997(at 22), but was in school for 2 years, started working in 1999. As soon as I started, I put money in 401k. I married early in 2000(I was only 25 then), my wife already did her M.S by then, she started working in 2000 even before our marriage. I made her put into her 401k(max out most of the time), we also put into esop. Together we have 300k in investment assests in 401k. Then I started a brokerage account and put 1500 every month, that accumualted to 150k now.
I brought house early, as soon as I am out of PT, with in first year of H-1, it didn't appreciate much but I still have an equity of 200k in primary house(I took 15 year mortgage) and I brought another house, that I rent out which as an equity of 50k. I have some cash. I brought couple of plots in india and also constructing an house in my native town in India.
But i want to do something else, I am happy with my life, for last two years, I got into golf, tennis and exercise, trying to be physically fit. I used to worry about GC before, not any more, whatever happens will happen.
Except that I am not progressing ahead in my carreer, I want to do MBA and get into something else. Right now most of my money goes to day care for two of my kids around 24,000.
More than money, you have to develop right habits, be healthy and have positive attitude.
In my case, Secrets of my lifestyle are
1. Getting started early, buying an house at 26. STarting 401k early.
2. Marrying a girl, who is already working.
3. Maxing my 401k and esop plan.
LIFESTYLE?
All 3 points mentioned do not come under "LIFESTYLE".

Thanks for the reply. I am not sure how that will divide the community. As per USCIS laws currently, the spillover is horizontal. Based on this assumption, will EB3-I get any visas if the recapture is successful?
When USCIS changed the laws, there was a bloodbath here between Eb3 and EB2 folks...
Looks like you were not aware of it!
