Stop this... Really it doesn't help anyone..
Knowing what I know..
Here are facts that might help everyone...
For EB3
EB2 I/C will never be current without legal fixes.. Current estimated EB2 backlog is slightly less than 100K
For EB2 I/C from 2006..
Unless hell falls on us, Most of you will get green cards this year.
Now Lets get back to IV Advocacy effort and get active.. That is the the only hope for everyone...

Berry, Appleman & Leiden LLP is very good firm. I have very good experience with them. They completed all my paper work on Jun 30, so that they can file by July 2. Also the attorney and the para-legal were really good and replied to my questions patiently. The website is http://www.usabal.com/

I don't think Berry Appleman is a good firm, they took 30 days for all people to prepare simple docs for I 485 which takes 2 hours for us to prepare and they never respond to calls and email.

Mundana.. I'm not trying to discourage anyone, by all means people should seriously try it and see.. instead of the endless talk..
You'd certainly find the poetic notion in the constitution that "all men are created equal" but if the purpose of the US government and its agencies didn't allow them to balance this with protecting the interests of the US public, a billion people from around the world would move in tomorrow. By your logic, an illegal or one with visitor visa would apply to a job he's qualified to here then sue USCIS because their stupid rules that do do not treat him equally like all other men cost him the job.. Congress enacted the INA (Immigration and Naturalization Act) and tasked USCIS to enforce it.. I researched Title VII and the INA in my paper (so much fine print than the highlights u mentioned) and can tell you that title VII specifically allows INA to override it in matters relating to Immigration, and in many cases INA obliges and in many cases walks all over the EEO and all men equal concepts.. as i discussed with my employment law professor who had a good background in immigration, the situation can't be changed without rewriting Title VII and the INA..
Anyway, just my professor's opinion and mine, u have every right to disagree but plz let's do something instead of talking..
Here is the history of derivative acts under 14th amendment related to employement:
14th Amendment of the United States Constitution: guarantees due process and equal protection under the laws.
The Civil Rights Act of 1866, Section 1981: covers race-based discrimination by employers. Individuals may sue to assert their rights under this Act; which, unlike Title VII, has no limitation on back-pay liability.
The Civil rights Act of 1871, Section 1983: provides persons who believe they have been
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
I therefore believe there is a good chance at the Supreme Court ruling that because of long wait times of more than 3 years for a Green Card plus requirement of same or similar job during that long wait until the green card is received plus country quota affecting people born only in few countries leads to disadvantage for people of these few countries at work.
And yes, even I took law course and gave a seminar during my MBA. But even you would concur that this course at best is basic and does not make a person authority of the US legal system.
Finally, forget me or you, even a lawyer cannot say for sure what the final ruling will be in any case. And hence the best a person can do is give an educated opinion. In addition by human nature, the way I would interpret laws would be to my advantage while the way you would interpret them would be to your advantage. And hence I can understand your biases (and mine as well) because in case the country quota is found illegal by the US Supreme Court, it is the ROW that is going to be affected the most.

Thats good news. Hope it works. My feeling is that EB category will have more support in the Senate if they dont overdo the helpful provisions (read cap exempt etc..).
Fragomen Website talks about the bill and the amendment to the bill to reinstate most of the SKIL bill provisions. Perhaps, this amendment will be considered in the senate.

Understandable that Economic Stimumus Package is not a federal recuring benefit. However, ITIN holders (H4s) are eligible to claim child tax credit, why not this stiumuls benefit?. They should be given this benefit if they meet residency requirement. One should contact IRS to include ITIN holders to clain this benefit.
The IRS cannot make exceptions, since it is written in the law. However, the Social Security Act does not say that the benefit has to be recurring. I did get a reply today from the SSA. They claim the stimulus payment is a tax rebate, not a benefit. However, it cannot be a tax rebate, since the law was written to allow people with no income to apply for the check. There are even instructions on the IRS website that explain how people with no income can apply for the check. I am in the process of getting the opinion of an attorney. I will update you soon.
One last thing. I recommend that any discussions you have with the SSA be in writing. The SSA manager wanted to discuss this with me over the phone, but I insisted on written correspondence, because that is the only proof you have if this ever goes to litigation. The documents I have gotten so far already contain errors and contradictions that could be helpful in a legal case.

Air France still does not get it. neither do other euro nations, Nor does Australia.
They are now dealing with a entirely different generation of Asians who do not care if they were once a developed nation or that they can manufacture aircrafts.
The reply is still suggestive of they taking care of the passengers and handling the situation well. No, they did not.
A technical aircraft problem is something that every airline faces everyday.
Air France not having a plan to care of non-american or non-eurpoean indians is completely their fault and outright racist. and that too a flight which is flying to India?
Did they expect everyone on the flight to be from a EU or North American nation, and that they will not require transit visas.
No, they simply did not care. They just did not make arrangement for Indian residents and hid behind the transit visa excuse.
If they wanted, they could have arranged for a Airport Transit visa for eveyone who did not have one.
But no, they assumed that regardless of how we treat them, an indian is going to fly Air France again if that is the cheapest option.
Funny is, that might be true, but that demographics is changing so fast that they better keep not caring, cos Indians will not fly with them anyways.

All,
I visited the local office at Waukegan (Chicago suburb) last week to apply for SSN for my wife (H1 & EAD) and my minor son (H4) and was surprised to see SSN card in my mail box today for both of them!! :) (frankly I was expecting to see a denial letter for my son). Sequence of events
Me: submitted SSN form, passport for my minor Son
SSN officer: Upon seeing the visa. We do not accept application for h4 w/o work authorization
Me: I produced the printout of SSN provision 20 C.F.R. � 422.104(a)(3) and informed here that I need to apply for Federal benefit (stimulus package) and for that I would need one
SSN Officer: Oh yea..Oh yea.. there is a provision and she accepted the application
My sons SSN card displays "Not authorized to work".Thanks to Totoro posting the information on 05/03/2008.

These small movements does'nt make much difference. It may get retrogressed any time.
I feel DOS / USCIS /Nclex are trying to attract new applicants. This year very few had taken Nclex. These people are in greed of money, they are even planning to increase fee for green card.
This is my view

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- President Bush set out a new approach Wednesday in the wake of what he called a "thumping" for Republicans in the midterm elections.
Immigration and minimum wage measures are areas of common ground to discuss when he meets Democratic speaker-to-be Nancy Pelosi later this week, he told reporters at the White House.

Yes, I used to say like this five years back when I had time and age in my hand. I assume you are in early or mid 20's. I will put it differently for you.
Assume there is a big pond which starts from 1 feet and gradually increases up to 100 feet. People with one year work experience steps 0.5 feet. There are life jackets(GC) floating around the pool and whoever is lucky is picking it up. There are guys like me who are already in 5th-6th feet deep without finding the lifejacket, but we are sure if we go further, may be 3-4 feet more we WILL find it. There are guys who are lucky to find a life jacket at 1,2,3 feet also and happily float to the shore passing us. The fifth feet guy is practically seeing how the 6th and 7th feet guys are struggling. May be they are seeing some one in 8 feet to 10 feet. Now a big Tsunami (retrogression) comes and drags all the jackets 20 feet down further. These guys are dejected and some of these guys even pull their spouse/kids in one hand when they float/swim.
Dont forget, it takes one year to step 0.5 feet. Every year the pond management drops a fixed number of jackets. These guys keeps their hope alive based on the above fact. But these guys are seeing some kids passing in motorboat(LC Substitution) paying that guy 10K and getting a life jacket. Hmm pain, but even if I had a chance I would have also done it.
Now comes your saying. When the deepest s...t guys talks about their fate down the line and how to take their family safe ashore, a guy at 0.5/1 feet shouts saying "Dont give up, it is like deciding to take a sanyas because you are tired of dealing with social issues".
If you are in 5+ feet, I take your statment. Otherwise, you will not understand what I am trying to say until you reach 5+ feet without finding a life jacket and also pulling your family in one hand and seeing your seniors struggling more in 8+ feet. :)
NOTE: BTW, no offense. I thought to express what I am saying in different way. I understand what you meant. Cheers.
I am in my late 20's and am going to finish my 7th year next month...you decide how many feet of water I am in..:rolleyes: Meanwhile I totally understand your argument that the situation is the most frustrating for people who have been here the longest. I'd say sharpen you swimming skills and then it wouldn't matter how deep the water is or how tall you are....I's say stick with it and endure hardship if you value the end result (GC ofcourse). Even if you decide to go back...whatever your age/experience be...never forget its never too late..Gandhi was 46 years old when he returned to India from SA after spending 22 years there..Still wasn't too late for him to start a revolution now... or was it ?:)
May be you might also want to change your handle...GCby3000 doesn't sound that optimistic
