My company is checking with some contacts how to push the idea. Recently we contacted competeamerica.org.
Nil,
Look at my reds. I gave you green and I used to have 2 greens at that time. Man, these guys dont want us to give any ideas. They just want us to wait till economy picks up..
With these two reds, I cannoit continue on this forum site anymore.. good bye guys..
OR.......
I dont care.. who cares these reds anyways.. Do the right thing.. We get reds all the time at work, game and everyhere.. I failed in two subjects in my 8th grade and lost a year.. Now I did my PhD from a top school in US.. Dont get cowed down..
These reds are sometimes to discourage efforts by some people whose interests differ from ours. I am not mad at anyone..
"Aage bado"..
But please someone give me some greens.. looks like I cannot green anyone unless I have some myself..

Flower campaign, I said this one week back and did not do anything on that but was requesting others to join. I did send letters twice to 6 address and sending cards again today.
How do we organize this flower camaign or anything . Shouldnt a core member start the initiative by listing the action on the headlines.
I am sure people are waiting to see Oct bulletin. But based on information we have, please be assured nothing good can be seen, unless a miracle. Wait for the next bulletin may not be as pleasant in case you are looking for a job (No I am not). Lets all shoot emails to CORE IV now, to request them to start a campaign. I think from our end that shoudl be the 1st step. Unless they get the group together, we will be headless chicken as someone said, writing in doifferent threads,
EB3-India needs to move atleast 3-4 years.
Sri,

Sri,
flower campaign was previously used by IV as a protest, and I feel doing so to congresspersons will be counterproductive (some of them are working on visa recapture).
Also, forget IV or CORE IV for this campaign, I dont think they will want to support this effort. And also, I request those sending the mails to not name immigration voice. I believe IV has made it clear that they will not support us (other than tolerating us with our posts here), so we should not use IV's name (without their approval) in our letter campaign either.
But you bring good points, we need to form a cohesive group and not lose steam in our campaign. The previous poll for EB3 showed over 500 responses, so if we can get most of them to write letters, it will be a good start. However, threads here seem to go off track because we end up deflecting blames and irrelevant criticisms.

legally and ethically and morally and whatnotally, they should accept all applications mailed on July 2nd.
So near yet so far. If the new visa bulletin comes out on Jul3rd , I wonder what happens to the applications received on Jul 2nd :((

Its been over 3 hours now that I informed CapitalOne that the discrimination is illegal. And as expected, no reply received yet.
Got a reply back just now
My mail to Capital One after getting the initial response:
Craig,
Thank you for the reply.
I am surprised by the disqualification since the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) had issued the EAD. DHS has set clear guidelines not to discriminate based on any of the authorized work documents issued by them, EAD being one of them. The I-9 form required to be filled in by every employee (citizen or otherwise) clearly mentions this.
Are you sure CapitalOne does not allow candidates who are on EAD specially when it does not require sponsorship from the employer ?
Response that I received for the above email:
Thanks for your message. The information regarding Capital One's policy on pursuing EAD card holders is correct. We are only able to pursue US Citizens or Green Card holders for these roles. I'm sorry, but we won't be able to consider your candidacy at this time.
Best Regards,
Craig

The Gandhi Protest
Several readers commented on a posting earlier this week about 200 skilled immigrants from India who tried a Gandhi-like tactic and sent flowers to the government's immigration director for help in moving their green card applications along. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services forwarded the flowers to soldiers recovering at Walter Reed Army Medical Hospital, saying it understood the intent of gesture.
Here's a sample:
"I wonder if USCIS really understood why the flowers were sent. It was a symbolic protest by legal immigrants AGAINST the way USCIS treated them. How could they send it in the 'same spirit' to soldiers whom we all empathize with?"
.....
"What an inspirational act. Too bad the message did seem to have gotten lost in translation. Just imagine what would have happened in WWII if the US would have turned away the immigrating sciencists and engineers. How come some 50 years later, the US is struggling to see the value of inviting the world's best and brightest to immigrate here."
.....
"I'm sorry that these people were tricked into coming to America with the promise of a welcome and eventually a Green Card. The fact is that H1-B immigrants were brought here in order to replace US workers."
.....
"Viceroy Lord Wavell and his assistants laughed when M.K. Gandhi told them that one day they will be forced to leave India. What they did not understood that they were not politicians, they were bureaucrats. When the political power behind peaceful civil disobedience was unleashed, a nation took shape, and what Gandhi told Wavell became a reality.
"Something similar repeated in United States recently when thousands of legal immigrants were given a cold shoulder, despite of their merit based claim for an American Green Card. They decided to apply Gandhian way of peaceful protest by sending thousands of flower bouquets to USCIS, an American agency responsible for immigration and citizenship. Instead of offering an apology, USCIS chief decided to again ignore the immigrants and simply issued a statement that the flowers will be forwarded to the injured service members recuperating at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. Once again a bureaucrat miscalculated the power hidden behind a peaceful protest. Now the power behind flowers is becoming a media mainstream story. NY Times, Washington Post, Reuters, Yahoo News are a few to name. Bollywood, has recently issued a statement providing its full support to Immigration Voice, the non profit organization behind the flower campaign.
"An American way of fighting injustice 'A law suit' is on its way, the usual rallies and demonstrations are about to begin. However, in America, its first time after Martin Luther King Jr., that someone has tried to apply Gandhi's way to fight injustice. It is yet not clear that what would be the outcome of this campaign, but there are rumours that USCIS is already discussing internally to reverse the discriminatory decision which caused this embarrassing flower campaign against them.
"It's amazing to witness that 60 years after Gandhi's demise, his ideology is still relevant. We are sure its gonna remain relevant till there are Lord Wavell's in this world. Lord Wavell's can momentarily laugh thinking that unorganized immigrants are helpless, but when the peaceful protest will demonstrate its political power, they surely will realize what Gandhi and Gandhian ways are all about."

This comment, whoever posted it hits the nail right on head.
As a highly skilled H1B worker in the US, let me the set the record straight on a few common misconceptions:
- Many of us come from upper middle class families and didnt come to the US 'seeking quality of life'. We already had it.
- Many of us have graduated with distinction or higher from TOP US universities where we competed with 'local' talent and aced the programs, with NO SPECIAL FAVORS
- All of us are PASSIONATE about the PROMISE of the GREAT AMERICAN DREAM. We work hard because we want to, not because we need to. (Hint: We are ambitious and can hence go to any country in the world!)
- All of us are an INTEGRAL part of this society, paying 28%-33% of our $100K+ jobs as TAXES that go back to the US economy
- All of us continue the great tradition of the US being a melting pot
Go back to the age of the Gold Rush. We are the new Gold Rush. We are the new Lewis and Clarke. We are adventurers, learners, experiments, believers, doers.
We are not lowly paid 'tech slaves'. Get the media misconception out of your heads.
We are PROUD to be part of the Great American Fabric. We strengthen this country with our diversity. We will continue to contribute selflessly to make this a greater, stronger nation.
And while we are it, we wont forget that our own future generations might take it more lightly and risk messing up their careers. Anyone that has 'life handed to them in a platter' ends up messing it.
So, please take your heads out of the sand, quit being protectionist and complaining the someone moved your cheese. Look at how you can move and be flexible, nimble and adaptive.
Inspiration. Ideation. Innovation. Hardwork. Dedication. Focus. Results. Rewards. Since when have we decided to change the ingredients of the American Dream?

I would appreciate if anyone could throw light on this.

Guys,
My current situation is that my wife and I applied for 485 separately.
my wife's PD is 2007 ( 485 applied in Aug 2007 )
I applied for 485 in Oct 2007, Since my PD is 2003 and is current as of now ( my 140 is pending ), I talked with our companys lawyer on what options do I have with regards to my wife's 485.
My lawyer suggested 2 options.
1. File 485 again for my wife as a spouse derivative. As per lawyer, this is very common and has experienced with these kind of situations.
2. Instead of filing a second 485 for my wife, just write a request letter to move her pending 485 to my 485 as a derivative. If this porting is successful, she cannot move back to her own 485.
I know some of us have gone with option#(1), but since option(2) involves very less paper work, did any of you have used this option so far?
I am confused as to which one to choose. My lawyer spelled diplomatic when asked about which option is better/safer:-)
Thanks

It is not clear what you mean when you say that. How can you get EAD without filing for 485 [which you can file only when your PD is current].
We applied before the retrogression started
2004 July - labor cleared for my husband
2004 December applied for I140 and I485 --- I 410 approved EAD and AP issued
I was in the country on F1 and applied for I485 along with my husband in 2004
Graduated in 2005 and changed to H4 immediately although not required since the status is Adjuste status
So when my PD becomes current they will let me know if we get GC or not
My question was since i applied for I485 when i was on F1 will it be a problem. I asked my lawyer and he said no. But i dont know how far he is correct.
I found this
http://www.immigration.com/faq/green3.html see Q202 ( it looks okay but i read some where its not quite right he was not a lawyer though)

I am thinking that we should do something like have IV attorneys look into this PIMS delas and we should may be do another letter campain? (strictly speaking, I know this cannot become an agenda item for IV).
If this trend with PIMS continues (which is what it looks like), sooner or later it may affect a lot of people on H1b month after month who are going for visa stamping. With priority dates retrogressed badly this will become another pain point.
Who in IV do we have to run this by?
thx

Bharatpremi,
Thanks for the excellent analysis. One question, your analysis assumes category excess visas goto next category on a per country basis, is this correct ?
Example, EB-1 china number goto EB-2 China ? I thought all EB-1 China numbers are added to the excess pool and then given to most retrogressed EB2 category ?
Thanks for anyone who clarifies this.
No matter how the data is sliced and diced, being EB3-I certainly means a loo...ong wait time ... :)

He says he likes Legal immigration, but then he curses every avenue for legal immigration under curent law.
1. He calls the diversity visa lottery the "great american giveaway" and has called for its abolition.
2. He calls family immigration "chain migration"
3. Finally, he calls employment-based immigrants as "stealing american jobs"
C'mon dude, its time to give up the pretense that you like immigrants!!

If I hadn't already spent $34 on sending flowers to USCIS, I would have definitely sent a "bon voyage" bouquet to you.
To anyone still thinking about sending flowers, do this woman a favor, and send her flowers instead!
Hello all
I am a silent visitor of this website.
Just my 2 cents... Don't think USA is like India where you can do something forcefully. Why don't you guys understand the real problem of USCIS.
Do you think that by sending flower to USCIS will force them to make EB2/EB3 current for 2005/2006/2007 guys??
Please try to understand their problem.
Also India is the great. Why don't you guys just think that India is your home country where you are born and brought up. Why you people can't just wait and watch?? If nothing happens to the so called GC, then why don't you think to pack up and go back to India???????
My sincere request, please don't do rally, you might be arrested......you never know what they can do..... Don't you think that, it is better to go back to India rather than being embarrassed here in US???
Isn't it a shame on us to go for Rally to get GC?????:D
Just think that you will get it when time comes, otherwise pack up.
Please don't take much tension as life is very short. I am assuring you all, nothing will happen with law suit and flower campaign.Don't irritate USCIS by doing all this please.

LETTER TEMPLATE #2
<<Date>>
The Honorable George W. Bush
President of the United States
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500
Dear Mr. President:
I write today to urge you to fix America's broken legal employment-based immigration system. Currently, more than 500,000 skilled individuals who contribute to the American economy through their hard work in high technology, scientific research, medicine and other fields find themselves trapped in a process that is hopelessly backlogged.
If nothing is done, hundreds of thousands of immigrants will wait years or even decades in a process that was never intended to take so long. While comprehensive change will require legislative action, your administration can implement administrative remedies to improve America's competitiveness, eliminate bureaucratic inefficiencies, and improve the quality of life for these legal, highly-skilled immigrants.
Sir, I came to the United States of America <<NUMBER>> years back. I graduated from <<UNIVERSITY>> with a Masters in <<FIELD>> and I have a Bachelor’s in <<FIELD>> from <<UNIVERSITY>>. After completing my Masters, I started working for <<COMPANY>> in <<YEAR>>. I am currently working as a <<POSITION>> with <<COMPANY>>. While in many respects I live the American dream of participating in a thriving economy, the dream is still incomplete because under the work visa provisions my wife of <<NUMBER>> years cannot work inspite of having a <<QUALIFICATION>>. Many people I know are contemplating moving to other economies of the world to take advantage of a fairer immigration policy. In other circles I am also aware of developing nations trying to lure back their citizens to boost their Research and Development potential.
Attracting and retaining the best and brightest minds from around the world is in America's best interest. In February 2006, your Domestic Policy Council issued a report on the American Competitiveness Initiative that recognized the importance of employment-based immigration. The report stated: "The President also recognizes that enabling the world's most talented and hardest-working individuals to put their skills to work for America will increase our entrepreneurship and our international competitiveness, and will net many high-paying jobs for all Americans. The United States benefits from our ability to attract and retain needed immigrant and non-immigrant students and workers, and it is important that America remains competitive in attracting talented foreign nationals."
You can advance your stated objective by making common-sense administrative reforms to fix a system that is clearly broken. Implementing much-needed reforms will also free government resources to focus on pressing national security matters. For example, current rules require the Department of Homeland Security to renew the Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) of hundreds of thousands of legal immigrants each year as those immigrants wait for green cards and permanent residency in the U.S. Rather than renew these EADs annually, the government could renew these documents every three years, freeing countless hours that could be better spent serving the Department's mission.
The greatest impact of the broken green card process is borne by the legal immigrants and their families. There are more than half million highly-skilled legal immigrants already working productively in the United States who find themselves trapped in a system that is taking years longer than intended. During this wait for a green card, these immigrants remain trapped in a legal maze, unable to change jobs - even within the same employer - without starting the arduous immigration process over again, and subject to waits that grow longer and longer.
We implore you to exercise your authority to implement administratively these much-needed reforms.
Recapture administratively the unused visas for permanent residency to fulfill the congressional mandate of 140,000 green cards per year.
Revise the administrative definition of "same or similar" to allow slight additional job flexibility for legal immigrants awaiting adjudication of adjustment of status (I-485) petitions.
Allow filing of Adjustment of Status (Form I-485) when a visa number is not available.
Implement the existing interim rule to allow issuance of multi-year Employment Authorization Documents (EAD) and Advance Parole.
Allow visa revalidation in the United States.
Reinstate premium processing of Immigrant Petitions.
I earnestly urge you to implement these administrative remedies without delay, otherwise many immigrant families who came to USA legally to become a part of the “American Dream”, will continue to stay in a limbo. Your help is urgently needed. Your action will also fulfill your stated goal of attracting and retaining highly-skilled legal immigrants from around the world, eliminating bureaucratic inefficiency, and improving the lives of future Americans already living and working legally in the United States.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Dear Mr. President:
I write today to urge you to fix America's broken legal employment-based immigration system. Currently, more than 500,000 skilled individuals who contribute to the American economy through their hard work in high technology, scientific research, medicine and other fields find themselves trapped in a process that is hopelessly backlogged.
If nothing is done, hundreds of thousands of immigrants will wait years or even decades in a process that was never intended to take so long. While comprehensive change will require legislative action, your administration can implement administrative remedies to improve America's competitiveness, eliminate bureaucratic inefficiencies, and improve the quality of life for these legal, highly-skilled immigrants.
Sir, I came to the United States of America <<NUMBER>> years back. I graduated from <<UNIVERSITY>> with a Masters in <<FIELD>> and I have a Bachelor’s in <<FIELD>> from <<UNIVERSITY>>. After completing my Masters, I started working for <<COMPANY>> in <<YEAR>>. I am currently working as a <<POSITION>> with <<COMPANY>>. While in many respects I live the American dream of participating in a thriving economy, the dream is still incomplete because under the work visa provisions my wife of <<NUMBER>> years cannot work inspite of having a <<QUALIFICATION>>. Many people I know are contemplating moving to other economies of the world to take advantage of a fairer immigration policy. In other circles I am also aware of developing nations trying to lure back their citizens to boost their Research and Development potential.

One way to end his mis-information is to make a list of the companies who advertise on his show. After that we need to communicate with these companies about the lies he spews on his show and also threaten to boycott all their products, if they continue to sponsor his show.
Remember, I can't make a difference, you can't make a difference. But both of us can certainly make a difference.
my views exactly. this is what works in usa ..send letters to companies that sponsor his show. thats how it worked in don imus's case. if all immigrants boycott those products which sponsor his show ..dobbs will start fitting in his shant

Hi,
I'm in trouble situation, maybe somebody can give advice.
I can file I-485(Eb3 March 2005). But my wife & daugther basically out of status. Their H4 visas were not extended.
Before june bulletin I was thinking to go back home with my daughter (she is under 18) and try to get visa in consulate. It was attorney advice. Also he suggest to file for an asylym for my wife.
Now I'm going to file I-485 for whole family regardless what attorney will tell me.
Is it good idea to go directly to uscis office and ask them (can I file)?
And what will happen if their apps gets denied?
Any ideas?
