I have a pending I-140 since July 2006. Today i lost my sponsor employer and don't know what to do. Can I switch my pending I-140 to another employer? What can i do NOT to lose status? I still have a valid H1B till Augist 2008 but I have travelled on my Advance Parole. Does that mean that my H1B is terminated? Please advise. Thank you.

Only option left for us is making 750k and invest in business in US, You get green card . Otherwise go bakc to india.
Yes if you are born in India, then US skilled immigration is closed for EB2/3...its over..finished. I realized this in 2005 itself and started preparing, applied for Canada
PR in 2006. Took GMAT and applied for MBA. I only applied for Canadian schools...not 1 US school...I learnt my lesson...fool me twice shame on me. In 2007, I got my Canada PR
and well my MBA admission. I paid resident tuition fees, got loans from Banks as I was a PR. The plan worked picture perfect.
Interestingly when I was applying for my MBA in Canada, one friend of mine was preaching to me to do in US and not Canada....well guess what ...he got his a** handed over to him and lost his job and is back in India. He applied to US top schools and thankfully he didnt get admission. Overwise I dont know what would have happened.
I am in touch with Indian student in US B-schools like Harvard as well. Their life is living hell now with 20+ lakh loans in India with parent's home as collateral. Employers run away like seeing ghosts moment you mention H1B.

can you please post the article?
Thanks
Based on last week's BusinessWeek article, I have a feeling that we will see an effort to restrict initial H1B applications in some way. That would be a good opportunity to push for allowing naturalization applications for people who have been on work visas for a long time (say 8-10 yrs?). Fighting for citizenship would have a stronger emotional dimension and may connect better with the American public. A direct filing for citizenship will work around retrogression by providing an avenue for people to move out of the GC queue.

First thanks to those who put there first hand experience in this thread, it made me think again. And now I am deciding to cross the border and go north, after 9+ years in US on H1b.
Could someone please refer a Do-it-yourself kit that they have used and/or immigration consultant?
I contacted one consultant, they email almost every week and when I called/emailed them saying I am ready to pursue there has been no response from other side yet.
It will be great help for me if you could refer a kit or a consultant.
Looking forward to join H1->Canada community :D

Fierce Battle Brews Over Comprehensive Immigration Reform and Difficult Road Ahead
Report indicates that the comprehensive immigration reform battles are getting growingly passionate over the illegal immigrant issues among the different political forces and some news agencies question whether the Congress will be able to pass such legislation before this year is over. The real battle is waiting in the House of Representatives and reportedly the restrictionist members of the House are organizing and mobilizing their forces to oppose any bills that will give any relief to the illegal aliens including the temporary guest worker program and the earned adjustment of status of the illegal aliens to permanent residents. There are some indications that some of the House members favor the Frist bill over the Specter bill in the Senate because of the illegal alien immigration issues. The Frist bill does not offer any relief for the illegal aliens and proposes to reinforce the border security and immigration enforcement. Meanwhile, the Specter bill proposes the temporary guest worker program and earned adjustment of status along with reinforcement of the border security and immigration enfocement.
When it comes to the reform of legal immigration, particularly the employment-based immigration, there appears to be no noticeable battle among different political forces. Indeed the Frist bill and the Specter bill agree each other in almost every detail in the direction of the reform. However, the Chinese and Indian immigrant communities are currently battling with these bills over the provision that restricts use of the per country immigrant visa numbers for fear that such bill will not be able to relieve current employment-based visa number retrogressions for India and China regardless of increase of the overall employment-based immigrant visa quota, recapture of unused immigrant visa numbers, and other provisions that exempt several employment-based immigration related groups from the annual numerical limitation, including family members and certain advanced degree holders.
It is our view that the direction of the employment-based immigration system reform should focus on removing the clogs to the pipeline that supplies the needed foreign workers at both high-end and low-end. The reality is that these foreign workers are supplied primarily by certain countries. The statistics reflect that most of the high-end professional workers come from India and China. Considering the fact that it is the sense of the Congress and the nation that this country needs continuing in-flow of foreign brains as reflected in the special provisions relating to the advanced degree foreign worker immigration, the per country limit in the employment-based immigration quota system will work against the achievement of these primary policy goals since it will create another clog to the supply of foreign brains from the primary sources of these brains. It is proposed that the Specter bill is amended to remove the per country limit and the Senate passes the comprehensive immigration reform bill without imposing per country limit in the visa number allocations. In formulating the nation's policy, the Congress cannot contract itself in the same legislation.

It's a sad day to see IVers granting each other 'red squares' , and committed members asking each other to 'shut up'.
We are quick in jumping at each others throat for no apparent real reason ! Being part of a forum is sharing space with others, with those whom you disagree, and those who disagree with you. Argue logically, but don't make it a personal fight.
Don't agree with someone, make your displeasure known. If things seem to be getting hotter, ignore the other person. Live and let live. We have bigger issues to worry here - GC mess - instead of who said what !

Hi,
As July visa bulletin indicate/predicted that for EB2-I it might reach up to March or April 2006 in FY2010.
Is FY2010 is Jan to Dec 2010 or FY2010 ends at Sep 2010 for USCIS? My PD is Mar2006 Do I have to wait till Sep/OCT 2010 or till end of 2010 i.e. Dec?
What is USCIS's Fiscal Calendar / Jan to Dec or Sep to Oct?
I'm planning to go back to India so just wants to see, should I wait for 3-4 month more or it's going to be end of this year?
Thanks a ton,
RW

Mohican,
I never heard about I-140 substitution. Are you sure your employer request USCIS to change the name of the beneficiary on the approved I-140?
As far as I know I-140 is the petition by an Employer for an individual Employee, so it goes with 1 person and can not be substitute.
Employer can revoke I-140 or use the underlying labor for some other individual.
It may have been the case that USCIS by mistake approved 2 I-140 for the same labor and when they realise their mistake they denied your I-485 suggesting someone else already used the underlying Labor certification.
I guess your original employer as well as USCIS are at fault. I dont think AC-21 provisions will help you either, bcos the USCIS rule is 1 beneficiary for 1 labor, their can not be multiple beneficiaries for 1 approved Labor.
Please consult your situation with the experienced attorney and see if you can file MTR, since its not your fault and you are suffering due to USCIS/Employer mistakes for using 1 labor for 2 I-140 approvals.

First - EB2s stop replying posts that were written in frustration and you understand why, They will not affect and take away your GC. Since you are not frustrated you have to start first.
Second - EB3s - Frustration will never bring you anything and you can not move PD faster. Instead capatialize the situation that EB2s are getting GC. How you have to think and focus.
I can give my example. I made network of some who got GC and have some influence in recruiting. After working 9 years for a big Pharma and got layed off, My one buddy got GC long back in EB2 , helped me and received job through him though I have to drive 220miles everyday.
Am I frustrated yes!! More than anybody else here but has to calm down and think positivily.
Hope my post will help you to reduce some frustration.
I can understand the frustration among Eb3s. Honestly I do not want to aggravate their feelings. My only objection was for someone to generalize all Eb2s as being dishonest.

That's not right, you have to express consent before an employer can file on your behalf. Any filing without your consent MIGHT be misrepresentation or fraud.
LAR (Last action Rule) Employer 1 or Employer 100 can file H1B, even without your knowledge. Therfore, you dont worry.

It is H1 to H1 (I believe that means it is not change of status) .

Bharatpremi,
When do you think EB3-India will move to 2005? Any guess?
First Bullshit Period: 2003 - Realization that EB3-I will be dead slow - Sub
Labor black Market flourished mainly in NY, CA and TX.
We saw a new animal "Virtual Office". Lot of ethically and
morally(Now even legally) illegitimate transfers occured
from EB3 to earl PD based EB2.
Second Bullshit Period: 2005-JAN to APRIL is a key "Bullshit period" - As in
May PERM was gonna to be released, people
fanatically started preparations to switch over to EB2
using PERM. So maximum fence hopping done in this
period and continued till 2006 mid.
Fact: In june 2007 EB3-I was already reached to June 2003 as current PD.
So logically speaking once dates for EB3-I reaches to 2005 start mark then virtually it should not take long to reach to 2006 mid mark as EB3 numbers considerably reduced and with same amount EB2-I considerably increased so EB2- I will stuck for a very long long time once it reaches to 2005 start mark and Eb3-I will be moved with jet speed. Now we may have some EB3-I with PD before June 2003, it will surely be a stock from NC stuck - That is the only entity which you can not tag a number and hence the base of inaccurate prediction.So far so good. Considering all this I believe Eb3-I at least with PD 2004-mid should become current by the end of 2008 december.Last quarter of this year will be THE quarter for EB3-I
Other thing is unpredictable and abrupt decisions by USCIS, just like what it did during this April - So all in all, I think it (EB3-I) should reach to 2005 mark by 2009 mid.

Jaime, your thought of having one more rally in Silicon Valley is a good one but again you are going to have the same crowd..!!
People in neighbouring states of DC did not make it , you tthink they will make it all the way to west coast! very doubtful!!
We should aim at bringing in more people to this family as possible..
Looks like a simultaneous rally on a weekend will be very effective!
And this time for the rally we will carry one one slogan banners
'SHORTEN THE WAIT FOR LEGAL IMMIGRANTS' or something similar!
just a thought!
You are right rajsand..we can make more people to rally by oranizing the Rally duing the week ends and also that we need to make sure to have some Volunters to get in touch with the IV members through e-mail or by calling them which ever is convinet to make sure weather they are attending the rally or not..if yes collect their names and contact info.. in that way we can estimate that how many people will be attending the rally and we can plan accordingly to infrom some news channels to cover the rally in that way we can able to get more media publicity...it's just my thought..what do you guys say?

WOuld be interesting to know and also gives an indication of how fast really USCIS adjudicates applications once they become current.

because for people from Aus, their spouses can work.
There is a different visa category for australians called E1, only THOSE ppl's spouses can work. If an australian is on an H1 his wife cannot work on an H4 either.
In that case you also have to argue, why H4's cant work but L2's can? :)
