Me and my wife had each sent a letter on Feb 10 to the President and the IV PO Box. I did not see my id in the names of peeps who sent a letter.
Just posting here to make sure you guys got the copies I sent you.
Maybe my letter was not considered in the total sent so far and there could be others like me.
Just a thought...

Nola, your intentions are good, but I do not agree with your conclusion. You are biased against yourself and other applicants.
1. who, applicant or cis, is required to make sure gc process is properly followed?
2. also, if someone goes thru' "pain of gc revocation" due to cis error, isn't it ethical (and legally required) to provide "ead/ap" (so person can continue to work and feed his family, be in status), "reinstatement of (again) pending 485" etc. to that person by cis?
3. are these legal & ethical norms only applies to one party or both parties involved in this process?
I understand what you are saying. Both, the applicant (or applicant's attorney) and CIS shold follow the correct procedure. However, there should be no elation to getting a GC when the PD is not current, hence there should be no distress for its "revocation" - which again is a matter of semantics, there is no GC, hence there is no revocation.
I commented on what the applicant and the applicant's attorney should do based on what is ethically and legally appropriate. I did not comment on what USCIS may or may not do to resolve such a situation.
I understand the struggle you metion; I have been in the US since 1994, i lost my priority date of Aug 2002 due to impatience with the backlog center. I started my GC process in 2001! I had a job loss due to Hurricane Katrina. I am married to a US Citizen, but cannot get sponsorship from that marriage due to DOMA. The pity list goes on and on for each and everyone of us. So believe, me, i understand the aspect of "struggle" that each of us has had to endure or is still enduring in order to get a GC.
I don't see how I am biased, especially against myself - that doesn't make sense. I am not an attorney, obviously, but i work very closely with attorneys, well it is essentially my job to work with them and the bottom line in every contractual arranagement or when applying the law, comes down to what are the obligations of the entities involved whether it is a contract or the practical application of the law.

I think SKIL/CIR etc are all carrots for the "would be" immigrants to slog their ass off - ultimately, American Congress will only do something if
A. There is enough pressure from Business community to enact a change.
B. Persistent efforts by organization like Immigration Voice in educating the lawmakers and using lobbyists like QG&A to get our voices heard.
We have a legitimate cause but we have to use the right "modus operandi". We need each of the members of IV to go back and talk to their HR/Legal/Managers/VPs/CIOs etc to ensure that our voices are heard. Immigration Voice needs corporate backing and you can help here - make your employers aware of Immigration Voice and retrogression. Ask your employers to contact the Congressmen and Senators of your state on your behalf.
We need a legislative reform and the only way to achieve it is to make your voices heard and your opinion count.

I cannot help laughing. That is the coolest analogy that anybody can think of, for the GC retrogression:)
I think this post should be sent in the humor section in one of the forthcoming IV newsletter, hoping that newsletter reaches congressmen/senators. Atleast they would sympathize with our plight.
Good one, indeed!!!
:D :D :D
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 have really had good experiences when i renewed my passport, my wifes passport and also when i applied for my childrens PIO card. On each ocassion the documents arrived before time and the service at the SFO consulate was great when i called them with a concern. On all 4 ocassions i use the $20 option to get the document by Fedex. We spend thousands on the recurring nightmare at USCIS, $20 for peace of mind is not a big deal.
I have also observed that we tend to get overly agressive when we talk to indian govt officials here. I think we expect bad service and we mentally prepare ourselves to fight. I am not saying that all do this but some of my friends did concur with the thought. There are many geuine cases where there is a problem, as some desi govt officers are sticklers for making sure that forms are in 'order'.:D

Hi,
Here is our situation. I am on H1 and have 485 pending for me and my wife. Both of us also have a valid EAD.
My wife was on H1 too, however since Oct'08 she relinquished her H1 status and took up another job using her EAD. Currently, we are planning to have her AP filed (her earlier AP expired in Dec'08).
Given all this, I have following questions.
a). Are there any risks associated with filing AP.
b). I presume her status has been valid so far... reason I ask is that we didn't do anything special in terms of communicating any official agency, when she jumped the boat from H1 to EAD. Were we supposed to?
c). Do you think I can get her on H4 while she continues to work using her EAD. I guess H4 option is more expensive? Any thoughts?
Appreciate any help/pointers on this.
Thanks

Lets not get into Apples Vs Oranges debates here. Its ridiculous to stereotype the whole race just coz......bottomline, no one is superior to anyone else, regardless.
If the claim that AF did accomodate 'other' passengers with T visas and not for Indians, that is really so wrong. That we definitely should condemn.
Peace........

When you say these are the " ONLY REASONS", you should think twice. If your wife delivered baby on that day or if you had back surgery a week ago probably you would not be been in DC for the rally. So please dont generalize anything.I am not sure if the most efficient way to motivate people is to write bunch of threads with the words like the four you used many times.

You are right, nobody should force you do anything, everything is a personal choice, well only after you have attained a certain age (you don't have choices as a infant ;)). A certain person did mention that you like learning/ speaking english, probably even spanish (eventually :)), but you are uncomfortable because of the attitude of the speakers :), have you ever thought if your attitude is right ?, what make's you think your attitude is better / worse ?, just a thought bro, dont hate, life is too short to hate :)
Exactly...I was getting irriated when people are forcing and telling that I should learn hindi. isnt my personal choice...?

Dont be surprised at the next VB or theone for October where EB2 india moves back to Apr 2004 ....DOS can always surprise you, as we have learned repeatedly, all calculations/bets are off when it comes to DOS.
That's Why I don't trust USCIS/DOS. We better work on legislative changes, that's the hope to fix this mess
