Thanks for doing that.
State chapters are a great mechanism to communicate with other members in your state and district. Please use that if it works for you.
However, if you cannot find someone to go with you, then go alone. Many of the meetings we do in Washington, sometimes we get appointments from 2 or 3 offices at the same time. In that case we split up and only one person goes to meet the lawmakers or staffers. But we cannot lose opportunities or miss opportunities.
So go alone if there is no one else in your district to go with you.

Honorable congressman,
I am writing to you (in your capacity as a judiciary committee member) to bring a recent action by the department of state that wrecked the hopes of many tax paying, employment based legal immigrants.
The New York Times carried an excellent editorial regarding the State department's actions:
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/07/opinion/07sat1.html
As a legal tax paying resident of Masachusetts since 10 long years, I have been eagerly waiting my turn in the line for a green card, putting lot of very important life decisions on hold. This latest bait and switch has made me totally disillusioned with the immigration system and I have started looking for opportunities to apply my skills in my home country instead.
For the sake of fellow legal immigrants who have been impacted though, I am hoping you can look into this matter and try to influence the department of state to correct its action. Rep.Lofgren has already issued a statement in this regard. http://lofgren.house.gov/PRArticle.aspx?NewsID=1808
Thank you for your time.
Regards,
xxxxxxx
Here is the link to the NY Times Editorial:
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/07/opinion/07sat1.html
It is one of the most well written editorials from a renowned source. (You might have to register to see it). Everyone should try to send emails via the above link to their own Senators and Congressman, along with various Congressmen on the House Judicial Committee (Subcommittee on Immigration). http://judiciary.house.gov/committeestructure.aspx?committee=4 .
The House.gov web site does not accept email from anyone outside their respective constituency. The Chairperson is from San Jose CA while the other members are from CA, VA, MA, TX, IL, etc. If you are from one of these places, you need to emphasize the importance to them and also mention that we are the next wealthy voting block of the future elections and we will remember them. Now only a Congressional oversight can save us from the USCIS created crisis.

Canada is a good option if you have a job lined up.
The only drawback is the lack of opportunities as the US.
It is certainly safer, health care is free (due to higher taxes).

We are not sure of the chronology of events such as your wife's pregnancy, Your job change, your insurance start date. If you guys had individual insurance before your wife's conceiving, insurance cannot deny coverage as pre existing condition. Make sure you put these events in a time line and rule out the possibility of coverage. if you have done so, you have to explore other options.
As far as changing job is concerned, make sure your job requirement matches the same and similar concept. If you have used AC21, why not use it one more time? Of course, your PD and other personal issues might be stopping you from doing so. But if you are just thinking about using AC21 again, dont worry. Talk to a good attorney and drink the kool aid again.
The easiest way to get through this is to get under group coverage. I will let you know if there is any way you can sneak into group coverage. but the one I can think right on top of my head is joining an employer with health insurance
Thank you nixtor.

Good read here:
Risk of GC Rescission for Failure to Notify Change of Job / Employer!
http://www.murthy.com/news/n_risres.html
http://www.murthy.com/news/n_apprea.html
"The particular case has been issued a NOIR on the basis that the employer revoked the I-140 petition and there was no information on record indicating a qualifying position under AC21."
That's the whole point. If you know that petitioning employer will not withdraw I-140, there is no need to notify the USCIS about the job change. Obviously it's in someone's best interest to notify the USCIS of invoking AC21 if there is a risk of I-140 withdrawal.
And at the end, the GC was not rescinded even though the person did not notify the USCIS about AC21:
"After about eight months of persistent follow-up on our part with the various federal agencies and AILA, we received a favorable decision for our client. It stated that, upon further consideration, the grounds for the rescission did not apply and that, after a complete review of the record of proceeding, the original approval of the Adjustment of Status Application was reaffirmed."

guys, do not be pessimists. First, this bill is still miles away from becoming law; even if it passes the senate it is going to be bashed by the house; they may be no CIR eventually this year; that will be to our advantage.
Let's hope for the best.

Hello myvoice23 ---
How come your case is assigned to IO inspite of pending NC. I saw a post which said that NC should be cleared before 485 approval. They are planning to finish NC by Feb, 09; for all applicants whose NC is pending for than 6 months.
I am stuck with NC...my PD is 09/2004...

not sure. What I got msg from IO when I went had infopass appointment.

It looks like NSC has slowed down a bit on EAD processing. I am seeing many posts where folks e-filed their EAD renewals in the 1st week of July 2008 and are still waiting for the FP appointments notice.
----------------------------------
EAD e-file : July 02nd 2008
Paper Receipts received: July 11th 2008
FP notice:?????
PD: EB-3 /India June 2003.

Call the regular USCIS customer support number and double check the details of the visit. If it is a genuine appointment, it could have been recorded in their system.
Also, you should talk to your Attorney to make sure such visits are legal.
Never heard of it before, strange things are happening nowadays.
BTW, is your employer a consulting firm? Do you think he could be in the visa fraud hit list?
I have one week from now for his visit. He gave me his desk number too. So I guess he is still an ICE employee. I did not call him at that number though.

I can scarcely believe it... Although I have to say that it would have been impossible to choose between the two entries. Perhaps this is the fairest result in the end. :)
Actually, I think results from three battles need to be put up - this one, the cartoon characters one and the line art one. Are there any more that haven't had the reults officially put up?

if the entire quota for EB2 is not allotted in a year, then the numbers are being sent down depite retrogression in india and china. that is how you know. every visa allotted to EB2 should be used within....if there is extra it's used by india/china.
The devil is in the details....What do they determine during the year that there are additional visas available ??? In that question lies the whole issue...
The state dept. would not give the number usage statistics until the year has ended..The laws say something...the Babus in Washington interpret it in their own way and donot explain anything....How do you make them tell their interpretation ????

pl check respective sources / attorney to make sure before you decide.

i wld assume our friends here might have very valuable inputs regarding this.

We need a slogan that mentions H1B's contribution to Social Security. I have not been able to find an article that mentions it. There are lot articles that mention undocumented workers contribution in billions. Just imagine how much we must have contributed and NO ONE mentions it
also scan through the vivek wadhwa report and pick a few lines to use as slogans from it. we need it this long weekend. Franklin is working on collecting them and finalizing it. we are running short on good slogans

H1B + GC holders pay SS + Medicare (??) for which they are entitled only when they become citizen.
Are you sure about this? That sucks! I always thought you were eligible for SS after you accrue 40 points....basically you get 4 points for every year of work. If you look at your SS report that's sent out before your b'day you will see the points you have accrued.
I thought 40 points was the only requisite; wasn't aware that you had to be a US citizen. Can you please verify this information?
Update: Did some research. Details posted in http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showpost.php?p=158966&postcount=40
