does anyone have the bill number that was passed by clinton to recapture visas from previous years. i wanted to know who the sponsors for the bill were. if its was a simple bill maybe the state chapters can talk to their congresspeople about passing something similar in the interim. it will reduce the waiting time for everybody and it is certainly non controversial...just thinking aloud.

Knock yourself out... After all happiness is not the only thing in life and what beats the double whammy of getting married and getting back on H1
God bless you my friend...
So I am in some real mess ....
I married to a gal in 2007 during my visit to my home country but it did not work out b/w her and me due to some family reasons. (Not divorced just separated)
I came back to US in 2008 and applied for 485. My green card got approved and now my wife is in my home country and I am in US.
Now my wife and I have reconciled and I want to bring her to US.
Can I apply for her Green card and bring back to US ASAP w/o waiting for 5 years as I married before approval of my GC. I can get papers from my home country showing that I got married way before my GC approval.
I did not show at any stage in GC application that I was ever married. I thought the marriage is gone so why show it and now it could hurt me. I even dont remember if there was any question regarding marital status on 485 application.
Please help me other wise I would just have to cancel my GC and go back to H1 to bring my wife here. I cant leave her any more with our stupid relatives who might again break our marriage.
Please help , I am very desperate.

Eb3India,
You make very good points.
Actually a lot of folks who are beyond 6 years are themselves to blame to some extent. We did not realize that its a long process and the sooner you start the better it is.
Here's the deal. The GC process takes 4 years on average if you are from India/China. Some ppl get it it in 3 years. Some get it in 5 years. The systems is built in a way that it has to take at least 3 years. Back when labor processing used to take 2 years (1yr state + 1yr federal), the rest took 1-2 years. Now labor is really fast and the dates are retrogressed.
So, now it will take 6 months to get labor and then 2+ years of waiting for dates to become current then processing for 1 year. So about 4 years.
Off course some of us got the short end of the stick when cases got shipped to BEC's and labor took 4 instead of 2 years. and then some people are stuck in retrogression after getting out of BEC's. Its all about knowing the entire game before getting into it. I kick myself for not starting the process sooner.
So, your options are 1) Labor subs 2) Go to India and come back as L1 3) Fight the system 4) Do nothing and wait.
look I have been here for 10 years and I kick my self everyday for not getting card, if I played my cards right I should have been worrying about citizenship now :)
many of are here for good reasons of our own deed and situations which are beyound our control, 9/11, immigration politics etc. the best way to get around this either to follow some lope hole such as labor subst, L1 etc, or fight the system thru IV, or just simply wait,
complaining that someone else is getting greencard is nothing but childesh and I hate to say this as it comes from a "Highly educated" guy like who did is MS from US :D

Hi,
I'm a bachelor and applied for 485 in July '07. I got my EAD, AP, FP etc. I'm using my H1B visa to work (not my EAD).
I'm currently working for Company X that filed by 485. If I do an H1B transfer and work full time for my client, Company Y, then after getting married and my priority date becoming current, who has to file my spouse's 485 - Company X, Company Y or can I go to any independent lawyer that is not working for Company X or Y?
Is the 485 application linked to the company that filed my labor and 140?
Please let me know.
Thanks,
greencardfever

Notwithstanding the good research below...
Section 201 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) sets an annual minimum family-sponsored preference limit of 226,000. The worldwide level for annual employment-based preference immigrants is 140,000. Section 202 prescribes that the per-country limit for preference immigrants is set at 7% of the total annual family-sponsored and employment-based preference limits, i.e., 25,620. The dependent area limit is set at 2%, or 7,320.
Given this is legislation, I don't think rule changes can trump it. I don't believe per country limits will change. Besides, how is that a solution to anything? This is not an Indian or Chinese issue. It's a legal immigrant issue.
See pg CRS-5 of document http://fpc.state.gov/documents/organization/84914.pdf
Two important exceptions to the per-country ceilings have been enacted in the
past decade. Foremost is an exception for certain family-sponsored immigrants.
More specifically, the INA states that 75% of the visas allocated to spouses and
children of LPRs (2ndA family preference) are not subject to the per-country ceiling.18
Prior to FY2001, employment-based preference immigrants were also held to percountry
ceilings. The American Competitiveness in the Twenty-First Century Act
of 2000 (P.L. 106-313) enabled the per-country ceilings for employment-based
immigrants to be surpassed for individual countries that are oversubscribed as long
as visas are available within the worldwide limit for employment-based preferences.
The impact of these revisions to the per-country ceilings is discussed later in this

From Murthy.com
" AC21 portability is generally available to an individual who is the beneficiary of an approved I-140 and whose I-485 has been pending at least 180 days. The benefits of AC21 portability are available to any otherwise qualified individual, even if there is not an available visa number for his/her case."
if the PD becomes current and someone files the 485 and then retrogresses, they are the ones that can use this
"As long as the person had previously filed the I-485 when the priority dates were current and that I-485 remains pending, one does not need to have a current priority date in order to change jobs under AC21"
from the link http://www.murthy.com/news/n_porret.html
We are talking two different things here. You are saying about AC-21. The OP is asking about retaining PD. The way you can retain your PD after I-140 approval is :-
You file a new labor with the new employer - once it is approved - you need to file a new I-140 application and attach the old approved application with it - this would ensure that your PD will become the PD from the old case.
Difference with AC21 is - in the case of AC21, you just switch jobs and your current GC process continues - you do not have to file a new labor,140 etc.

So does that mean that if one's I-485 is rejected (Has no luck with MTR either) -
Then he cannot continue after his current H1-B expires (After 0 to 3 years)?
Going back to his home country is the only option?
That is correct unless you have other grounds for new H1b petition (highly unlikely at this point in one's stage) - Per Yates as well as Neufeld memo,
If at any time before or after the filing of the single (combined) extension request a final decision is made on the above-stated grounds, the beneficiary of the extension request will not be entitled to an extension beyond the time remaining on his or her 6-year maximum stay unless another basis for exceeding the maximum applies.

This is something that's doable without legislation. It would be done for employment based visas.
I've been reading the posts all day since yesterday. The most plausible "PERMANENT SOLUTION" has to be this. Please read the msg from IV
1. No change in July bulletin
2. No change in August bulletin
3. Well in that case it has to be this. It would be least controversial.

Pappu,
Do I need to post my question on this thread or I can pass it on before in time to StarSun or you? B'cause posting my GC issue with personal information would not look appropriate on a public forum.
Let me know.
If there are personal details that is related to the question, please send the details to IVCOORDINATOR@GMAIL.COM Have the subject line:

Can we post a question now or only after 8:30PM Thursday?
You have to be present to ask the question on the call, and therefore we prefer if you posted the questions on Thursday.

Can some one with good english skills prepare an email with heading like
'Please approve my status from legal to ILLEGAL.' include all points from rajesh_kamisetty and any other similar questions.
And everyone in this forum can send that out to every newspaper and every senator in this country. I believe this can open their eyes little bit.
Think guys. If there is decent letter I promise that I can stay whole night to send to all these guys.
I sent this to a lot of people
Do you say that being illegal, undocumented is better rewarded than being Legal Skilled Professional in US?
Yes I am talking about C-I-R (Compromise Immigration Reform) 2007 and how all the High Skilled Professionals are affected by this. High skilled professional who helped to build the economy for years basically are not rewarded for being legal and paying taxes. The "grand compromise" plan of the US Senate inadvertently (we hope) favors the undocumented over the highly skilled legal immigrants. We are sure the intention of the senators was not to ask the highly skilled legal immigrants to throw away their documents and get in line with the undocumented.
We, all high skilled professionals and ImmigrationVoice.org (12,000+ members) are extremely disappointed by this proposed bill and we would like to oppose this entirely and would like new amendments to benefit our basic needs.
# Increase the Quota from 140,000; NOT reduce to 90,000
# Remove the country limit even for High Skilled Professionals too.
# Provide provision to apply for adjustment of status even when the visa
numbers are not available.
# New Merit based system put the Skilled professional back in the line and also increase the points earned for high
Skilled professionals at least equal to unskilled labors
# Legal status of many individuals will be in jeopardy as important provisions from AC-21 are being removed by Congress
And it would difficult for non-immigrant like h-1b to renew after 6 years.
Give high-skilled legal immigrants a fair deal! That is all we are asking for
Immigration Voice (www.immigrationvoice.org) is a non-profit national grassroots organization committed to feasible solutions to a broken employment-based immigration process.

'Please approve my status from legal to ILLEGAL.' include all points from rajesh_kamisetty and any other similar questions.
And everyone in this forum can send that out to every newspaper and every senator in this country. I believe this can open their eyes little bit.
Think guys. If there is decent letter I promise that I can stay whole night to send to all these guys.
I sent this to a lot of people
Do you say that being illegal, undocumented is better rewarded than being Legal Skilled Professional in US?
Yes I am talking about C-I-R (Compromise Immigration Reform) 2007 and how all the High Skilled Professionals are affected by this. High skilled professional who helped to build the economy for years basically are not rewarded for being legal and paying taxes. The "grand compromise" plan of the US Senate inadvertently (we hope) favors the undocumented over the highly skilled legal immigrants. We are sure the intention of the senators was not to ask the highly skilled legal immigrants to throw away their documents and get in line with the undocumented.
We, all high skilled professionals and ImmigrationVoice.org (12,000+ members) are extremely disappointed by this proposed bill and we would like to oppose this entirely and would like new amendments to benefit our basic needs.
# Increase the Quota from 140,000; NOT reduce to 90,000
# Remove the country limit even for High Skilled Professionals too.
# Provide provision to apply for adjustment of status even when the visa
numbers are not available.
# New Merit based system put the Skilled professional back in the line and also increase the points earned for high
Skilled professionals at least equal to unskilled labors
# Legal status of many individuals will be in jeopardy as important provisions from AC-21 are being removed by Congress
And it would difficult for non-immigrant like h-1b to renew after 6 years.
Give high-skilled legal immigrants a fair deal! That is all we are asking for
