There are many possible explanations of why they are willing to make changes to accomodate the illegal immigrants.
off course its the vote bank politics but I think psycologically nobody is intimidated by ppl who come to US and are happy to do low-skilled work. They don't work in high-skilled or unionized jobs. They are largely employed by restaurant, cab-companies etc. These are jobs citizens really don't care for.
Whereas the job that H1 workers have... most ppl (in theory) would like to have them. It remains debatable how many native-born americans actually want to take hardcore technical jobs.

Thanks for contacting IV with your SOS.
An IV core member is going to be helping you to fix this with USCIS. Let us know if you need help. He already tried contacting you yesterday.
As IV grows maybe this is a help IV can extend to all its donor members and help them if they get in such extreme distress situations. This is one of the ideas we are thinking for our members in the donor group.
Very good work by IV. I commend this effort in helping the people who are in such situations and hopefully this will lead to more people joining and willing to donate for the issues that affect us as a community
- cheers

If the minister talks to the US President regarding VISA retrogression problem,How the outside world will come to know ? The discussions will be kept confidential ! I don't think everything will be disclosed to the press. VISA revalidation is another thing he can talk to US Secretary of State.
Wel well well...

It's because you, me, or any temporary legal immigrant will go back home if some law changes, and new batch of H1 B people will come in to fulfill industry requirement, but for illegal, route from South America is a one way street to USA and no going back. Plus, if temporary legal immigrants leave, US Govt. got to keep all our social security, retirement saving etc. if you think from their angle (US govt.), I guess for them, it makes more sense to legalize illegal (so at-least govt. can get some share of money from their taxes) because no matter what govt. do, illegal are never going to go back.
I just don't understand one basic question.
Congress is trying to pardon 12 million illegals as a one time measure and give them Green Cards. (OK - Very good)
On the other hand we are about half a million who entered the country legally and helping the U.S. economy and paying taxes. Why don't they consider giving all of us Green Cards as a one time measure too ?????

Thanks for your help. I will try and see if they can issue a BC with my mother's name. I am not sure whether they can accomodate that in their fixed format, but its worth a try!
In your case, you have the birth certificate, so you don't need to submit the non-availability certificate. It is better you contact your municipal office and apply for your birth certificate with your mother's name included.

This is exactly what I said in my previous posts. EB2 India may become unavailable towards the end of September as most of the visas will be used in August itself and we will see a flood of approvals starting August 1st itself. I think most of the approvable cases are already processed by USCIS after it gave the data to DOS on July 8th. I think most of the straight forward and less complicated cases during 2004 - 2006 period will be approved soon.
I do not want to spoil the party fun but somewhere in my mind there is a lingering doubt. I read Ron Gotcher's post about August 2008 bulletin.
http://immigration-information.com/forums/showthread.php?p=20233#post20233
He says that Eb2 India will retrogress to 2003 or 2004.
This is my opinion. TSC 485 processing time is July 17,2008. NSC 485 processing cut off date is July 28th, 2008. I don't know if CSC is still processing 485 EB applications but CSC EB processing cut off date on its website is April 04, 2006. The priority date for June 2007 bulletin was April 1st2004.
Lot of big law firms filed 485's around August 1st because the date for filing 485's was extended to August 17th. So I think these 485's are still unadjudicated. Once they get adjudicated there would be retrogression. Analysts analyze. However the silver lining would be removal of concurrent processing of I-140 and I-485 which may give some additional EB 2 numbers next year.

PD for family based visa is based on the date you file your I-130 for your Spouse. Nothing to do with the Labor certification.
For unmarried sons and daughters of GC holder same PD is given as of parent - I saw couple of documents.
I am not sure about (2A) cases.

More H1-B workers in the labor pool and in GC Line ...so more outsourcing openings for Indian Companies ...:)
Adding more H1B is what every employer aspires. They don't want you to get GC soon enough so that you leave them for better prospects.
No one is going to raise the GC backlog issue. Is there a way by which the we can also ensure that companies also stress on reducing the backlogs in EB categories and re-capturing past immigrants visa as a interim relief as they lobbied for increasing H1-B caps

Everybody should use this template to e-mail the reporters and Senators. Its point blank and thought provoking.
I just read the summary prepared by IV core team -a job well done.
I like to think that being illegal is better than legal as per the provisions in CIR!
What do you think of H4-spouses who can't work whereas those illegal can now apply for a work-visas!
What do you think of parents who were not issued visitor visas for silly reasons? Whereas those who by hook or crook got here are being given work-visas?
How come the illegals are guaranteed a GC within 5 years and the current legal immigrants are NOT?
How come the illegals can work and the legal residents on certain visas can't?
How come the illegals can work for any employer while H1Bs can't?
I am not against giving these benefits to illegals if that's how it needs to fixed. But what about us, the bright and good folks!!
When did h1b become a joke?
This grand-compromise is not making sense at all. It's smelling real bad for legal-visa holders.
I would like to hear from you folks..

Does anyone have any insight on this thing called "Last Action Rule"?
Scenario:
1) Visa stamp till Feb 28,2007.
2) Extension of 3 year H1B based on approved I140 starting March 1,2007.
3) International travel, returning to the US on Feb 3.
Now at the port of entry, the officer takes an action of saying your I-94 is valid till Feb 27. Basically this invalidates your previous H approval that starts from March 1. Some "Last Action Rule".
Reference: http://www.murthy.com/news/n_cosapp.html
Has anyone gone through this?
Basically the idea is that the person has to get a new H1B stamp when in India for the extension.
Well the information in the link to Murthy's article that you submitted clearly states the I94 will not invalidate your future approval. so your extension is valid.
I am not sure what your question is?

I would say a very transparent administration and solid institutions along with excellent educational systems is a key reason for these small countries being so competitive. Much of Asia and Africa is bogged down due to unstable political condition, rampant corruption, weak institutions and regulated economies, not to say low literacy and paucity of skilled workers.
In finland, denmark, iceland and other small northern european/scandinavian countries, English is the main language used, making it much easier for new immigrants.these small countries have to use english to stay competitive and communicate, because most of the world including europe do not speak finnish or swedish.
Just a thought for those wishing to get the hell outta here

There is no excuse for the Immigration dept for this backlog. This is a simple clerk's job which they screwed. IV as a an organization should clearly state it and insist on fast resolution by the respective authorities, not just foggy promises.
I agree that there is no excuse for processing times running into many months. However, I would be hesitant to rely on the goodwill of DOL/USCIS in resolving the backlog. I started another thread suggesting a premium processing option for the entire GC process:

Are the processing times according to the notice date or the received date ? Mine are 4 months apart.
It is based on Received date but some are saying that CIS is not really following that but in "THEORY", its the RCVD Date.

I need urgent advice from you. As you know my wife is on F1 visa and completed most of her credit hours needed by school. She has get only 1 credit hr to complete the course. However, that�s below 9 hr full time student status. She has been asked to register for additional 8 hrs..and pay tuition fee accordingly ( > 8K). Which I think is unreasonable. They told her that if she doesn�t register by tomorrow they have to report it to INS. She told them that she has EAD..there answer doesn�t matter in order to remain in school and F1 visa she has to register.
My questions is:
1) Can she continue working on her Thesis on her EAD and AP ?
2) What will happen to her f1 if she use EAD
In response to these questions my Lawyer said
1.) yes, she can continue to be a student as an adjustment applicant � she can work using the EAD and travel using the AP.
2) she is basically no longer an F-1 because she has demonstrated immigrant intent by filing the adjustment. Which is fine � she has valid legal status as an adjustment applicant and can work with the EAD and travel with the AP.
What do pro�s think..:)
