for those with masters or phd there is already a special quota called EB1. All of the others are not different from one another. if with your MS/PhD you are going to do the same kind of job any qualified person from India would do, what is the need for a special catagory. You have to prove your point then everybody will agree. Just by saying "special quota for MS" we will ask; WHY? show us the reason. I know lot of engineering graduates/MBAs/research scientists who have got MS from here but dont see any special significant contribution. I also know lot of professionals (specialists in medical / other fields) who were trained in the US and are significantly valued all over the world. So to put it briefly, this argument will not work with the law makers. People with PhD and lot of publications / patents / significant contributions etc definitely need a special quota and they already have one. The rest of us are in the same boat friends.

I do not get it.
As far as I know, a CP applicant can always switch over to AOS if already inside the US. It is harder for an AOS applicant to switch to CP.
You will have to make a choice. Do you want the benefits of CP or AOS? The way things are presently, you cannot have both. So pick one.
But the PD has to be current to switch over.

This is ridiculous - We really need a movement to fix the Indian Consulates. It sucks to be born in a country with 1 billion people. Long lines and struggle for everything :)
I sent in my passport renewal on Aug 1st, no update as of now. Sent them e-mails no response. Shame on you CGNY.

Seems like everyone losing hope including core - as someone else said above its really sad to see this. Please dont lose hope at this critical moment else all of our efforts for last two years will go waste.
I cant imagine how much time/effort has been put into this effort by core members (as a relatively inactive member I myself could have easily spent several hundred hours on these forums in last year and half; and atleast some time in calling/faxing etc.). After all these efforts and seeing the current bill its understandable to get deeply disappointed. But dont lose hope yet. Its not over.
Logiclife - coming this from you really shook me. At one point you were so confident that having our measures in any future CIR is but gauranteed - we thought its just a matter of time. All of us were also thinking that we are in a better position to introduce and enact amendments in this congress. We still have time (2 weeks) for amendments - why are we thinking about alternate arrangements and slowly losing hope. Does this show our level of confidence now or this thread is meant for some light hearted fun?

Hey Sparky_Jones,
You are the first guy whose case was transferred to CSC and you got the FP notices. Can you shed more light as many pople, like me, are stuck with no FP notices and we all had Receipts/EAD/AP from CSC...And now the files are back to either NSC or TSC...
Thanks!
I filed at NSC, got transferred and receipted at CSC, then got transferred to TSC. See my ginature for details

I wanted to find about pre approved or pre adjudicated case, We have been hearing the same more often in the forum, so out of curiosity i opened a Service Request.
I kind of have a good relation ship with the former employer, worked with them for 4 years. I just called my company HR and he said he does not know my name is on withdrawn list but he will check the list and let me know tomorrow.
Is it just out of curiosity you inquired about your pending 485?
Do you have a good relationship with your former employer? If so, you can ask them and verify if they withdrew your I-140...in any case that should not matter as long as you have passed the 6 months period after applying I-485.

Most of the July filers have 140 approved and working in a full time job.So I think there will be little impact.
thats not necessarily true, there are lots of people with consulting firms including myself, however these are big consulting firms with 1000+ employees. I see fewer applicant from smaller companies.

If the White House has any intent on doing immigration reform, which I think they do, then this would be the best year to do, far away from the presidential elections, as support to the Immigration bill cannot be made an agenda during the elections.

Did you get any high level traffic citations any time ?
Mostly they dont matter unless its high level
If I-140 is revoked , i believe the message should be some thing different
thanks

I thought so. Life's never simple with USCIS in it :) If at that time my spouse (my beneficiary) has not used EAD and is still on a non immigrant visa (H1 or L1), can I switch to dependent status?
Yes, you can switch to a dependant status if your spouse has a valid non-immigrant visa.

Why are we rambling on and on about this? There is absolutely no connection between India buying fighter jets and immigration. That was what the OP wanted to know. If the immigration processes will get affected because India excluded Boeing and Lockheed. There seems to be no connection between the two issues. Period.

You are suffering from a form of COLTS disease. It is a man made disease affecting potential immigrants to the US, usually for those whose cases are pending at USCIS. This was not one of the diseases screened at Ellis Island in New York. This disease developed only recently. Search this forum if you want more info on this disease, symptoms.
Effective symptomatic remedies include abstaining from reading immigration related forums, pursuing interesting hobbies & diverting mind to other relaxing activities.

"You salary should be almost the same as the wages mentioned in GC labor certification application or it should not be more than 4% more than what is mentioned in the LC"?
This is what I got from 4 separate lawyers when I was invoking AC-21. I think everybody should speak to a lawyer before invoking AC-21.
A lot of people out there think that after getting EAD one can invoke AC-21 to change to any job at any employer. This is not true. AC-21 is pretty complicated and I think that in the future, if there is no change in the law, a lot of 485 applications will be pending for 6-8 years or more. And for the duration of this period, a lot of people will invoke AC-21. I also think that the rate for rejection for number of AC-21 cases at USCIS will be higher. Nobody told me about the approximate wait time and rejection rate. It is just what I think based upon the developing situation.

Folks,
Per lawmaker we recently met(WA state), it is imperative that we also get our message across to lawmakers in the midwest and south.
Due to resident strength and businesses employing H1B people(who end up getting stuck in retrogression) in the west and east coasts and large metropolitan cities, the lawmakers in these areas are slightly more aware of our issues. They also get funding from local companies that employ people stuck in retrogression.
However, representatives in the MIdwest and South do not get a lot of funding from local businesses that employ H1Bs and have other local issue that they would rather pursue(agriculture, etc.).
It is imperative that awareness is spread in the midwest and south !!
