Do you expect this forum to be pro-employer when most of them are for lack of better words were screwed by consultants? People and relationship are important. Also, what is put on paper matters. As a matter of goodwill why cant the employer strike off that clause? Nobody is serving here. Businesses make money, investing in people, products and services. Why would an employee be subject to such clause like withholding the compensation, if employer for valid reasons wants to separate from this company? Immigrants are cautious because of the environment. This has nothing to do with Indians or desis or any race.
When you sign a contract, it is always better to read it, validate with others, seek legal advice(if needed/available) and sign. Because contract has legal binding unless it violates any law.
Again, this could be a boiler plate clause, but not a clean clause like,
"If one doesn't want to choose medical coverage, company will pay 5K extra as bonus very year" ;)
Well, I read all the posts on this thread, they seem too cautious and pro employee. My advice to you is
1) People and relationships are more important than money. This is true only if the people are of high moral standard. If your company is going to teach you things (it is generally the case) then be receptive and serve them well. They might give you a raise. If they are prepared to invest in you, you should be prepared to invest in them. This will improve the image of indian workers.
2) The clause you are stating is not very bad. If you own a company and you teach your workers skills, you want something in return. You can avoid complications by making sure to clearly document what you already knew and what has been taught to you.
3) There are things called trade secrets. If the company teaches you these secrets you should not disclose it to others. Otherwise your ass is grass.
4) This is not the same as the 200,000$ bonded contract settlement precedent cited in the thread. It may not apply to your case. This is also not a legal forum. Pay 200$ consulting fees and talk to a lawyer and get advice. Don't loose sleep! and post that response here!!!!
We as immigrants tend to be too cautious. This is good, but it should not be in the way of good relationship with employers. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best!!!

Please read Pappu's comments about suggesting ideas and making predictions. i will not post the link as i hope it will motivate you to search and read through the various posts and understand the enormity of the issues we face.
thanks ;)
As we all know, the Housing crisis in US is getting worse day by day, with the inventory of houses available for sale increasing, and buyers not willing/able to buy those houses.
......
This is something for the US law makers to ponder.

This thread seems to express my thoughts.
I used to wait till my dates got current. With my dates being current since November, I still wait with no sign of improvement.
I tried calling the 1-800 number. But, did not get any useful information.
Took an Infopass appointment couple of weeks back. But, it was of no use.
The officer at the local office read the same status that I see online.
She said that my case was transfered to Texas center. (I knew this since October 2007). Only additional information she gave me was that my namecheck got clreared. (Though this is important, I dont think this really matters to get my case processed).
I told her that I have been waiting since years and some of friends who filed later than me already got their GCs, she felt sorry for me but she said there is nothing she can do for me. Not even a Service Request since my dates are within the processing times.
Its getting difficult for me......Also, in this economy its getting tough everyday to hold on to the job. Who knows may be this year quota might be over too. It will definitely be a big relief if we get the GC.
I thought there is nothing I can do now till my dates goes outside the processing times. Please advice.
Good Luck to everyone.
Try Senator/congressman + Ombudsman inquiry now. If you do not get a response or nothing happens, contact me. Let us see what we can do for people who are current since a long time.

This is an extremely childish argument. In all honesty, the rules are the rules, we do not make them and nor do we interpret them. In the past the way the rules were interpreted favored EB3 over EB2I. Last year they said they took another look at the language and interpreted the rules as they should have been all along. At that time, there was much argument within this board and others. Those like me kept saying that EB immigration has always had a skills hierarchy and from the language EB category took precedence over country of origin quotas(which were discriminatory anyway). Others including popular posters like UN and lawyers like Ron Gotcher took the other view. In the end the state Dept. decided with the Eb category precedence and horizontal spillover. Should those that suffered the misinterpretation in 2006/7 ask for reallotment of future flows of visas to redress that injustice? No.
Likewise, many people got the opportunity to file 485s in the summer fiasco. There were hundreds of thousands of people who had already filed and were waiting for years by then, but the USCIS was being their usual inefficient self and not doing squat with their application. Were they not wronged? What about their total lack of respect for the FIFO policy? How would one of you feel in 2012 if someone who filed in 2012 and with a PD the same as or later than you get approved first?
These are process issues. There are many flaws in the system. Complaining when it grieves you and smiling when it suits you is not correct.
You guys need to learn to put the mission ahead of your personal interests. IN the interim, if you are able to migrate to EB2 and are confident in your case to be able to do that, then do so. However complaining on and on, and deligitimizing the whole advocacy effort is not how you get your goals accomplished. The singular best solution for everyone is visa recapture. If there was broad participation by everyone affected, I believe it would have happened already. EB3 v EB2 battles and other fault line battles accomplish nothing. Letters to officials along these divisive lines, while it may pacify your anguish a bit, make the community a laughing stock.

Later my wife made me realize that family life is most important as long as we are together, country of residence does not matter. When our son was born last month, I truly felt 'damn GC'.. funnily got approved in the same week:
Congratulations. I wish the baby all the very best in life. With regards to GC, yes, sometimes you get things when you are least expecting it.

There should a seperate quota for immigrants from Jhumri Talliya
In the same lines as H1B, could we look into if its possible to add a quota for US Masters degree holders irrespective of country of birth for green Card also. This would be in addition to the existing Employment based quotas.
Does anyone know how they added 20k H1B quota for Masters degree holders? Who sponsored that bill? May be we should talk to the same people.
I would think there would be a little less resistance for this? This would ease the pressure on both EB2 and EB3.
I dont know if this has been previously looked at. I know there were talks of excluding these people from quota all together.

I would think there would be a little less resistance for this? This would ease the pressure on both EB2 and EB3.
I dont know if this has been previously looked at. I know there were talks of excluding these people from quota all together.

Sometimes in your life you make bad decisions. It happened unfortunately, because my PD is June 2004 EB2 and when dates became current last year, I thought it needs to move just 3 months to have my date current and as per DOS release there were only 3400 visas in EB2 for 2004.
Unluckily I chose for CP instead of 485 and now lying in a dark well.
Anyway please don't sympathize, I'll certainly come out of this situation very soon.
Pls check with your lawyer if you can change to AOS from CP... Then you'll be entitled for all the AOS benefits.. I know few of my friends did filed for CP instead of AOS and maintained their H1/H4 status... So no choice is good or bad.. it keeps changing :-)
Since AOS can convert to CP.. I think it should be possible otherway too...

Thanks Sanbaj. Do you have both applications under same sponsor? Or different sponsor? My case is: both different sponsor and on top of that now I am working for third company using AC21 -EAD. Can any complications arise?
My case was simple. Same Sponsor. Same Category EB2. You case is complex as three different companies are involved. In my understanding, which is very limited, both the approved I140s are yours to use. Whichever sponsor's I140 is applied to your AOS is that sponsor you should joing after AOS is approved. But, AC21 in your case makes it even more complex. You better get a very (interfiling) experienced lawyer to help you out in your case for just to be on the safe side. There is no point taking so much risk at this stage of this prolonged and painfull process.
Best of Luck.

So let me guess, your parent applied under 245(i) in 2001 and thats why you have aged out. No thanks, that 245(i) amnesty has caused us enough problems with the labor certification backlogs.
What was 245(i) amnesty?...just curious
Also, It is a big concern for me when when some EB visa holder's kid age out and is left out of the process. If someone can show me that this so called dream act will help in that, i will support it and do my part.
But Iam not getting on the field to bat for an illegal.

The status on USCIS site chagned from initial receipt to approved and sent after about 105 days of receipt notice. I hope I recieve it next few days. I had applied to Dallas lock box - paper application.
