The Melting Pot diversity policies from the '60s were devised on a spirit of Family Reunification, but also to ensure that the US was not overwhelmed by any one country
In this spirit the concept of Per Country Quota makes some sense.
Hermoine, it is not an argument about whether X more go to India or whatever country.
The problem with Per Country limits makes no sense when the same theory is applied to visa's granted because of Skill. Employability has nothing to do with ethnicity (in fact, there are laws that prevent this type of discrimination by employers). It just so happens that currently India and China, due to their educational focus has a lot of people with skills that American industry wants. Who knows, in 10 years this could change and those skills could come from Mauritius and Lichtenstein and then they would be backlogged instead.
The main objection with per country caps for skilled employment is that it places discrimination based on ethnicity. It should be fair for everyone, not ones that happen to be from under subscribed countries. The concept of FIFO should be upheld.
Yes, I'm ROW, and will argue to my dying breath that per country caps for employment must be abolished. It exasperates backlogs and in discrimantory

Congress is enacting law. White House is just approving the bill into law. Any way White House is positive in our issue. What we need today is to have attention of congress. Member of Congress are scared with citizens and media. We need at Capitol, if we have to.
I believe, this will create big impact on media and members of congress.
Can we organize a hunger strike in front of CAPITOL HILL ,just for one day ?
IV can co-ordinate the event. It will give BIG media attention in DC. It will open the eyes of American people !

I did not find this invalid. But the NSC update from last year also doenst say as how long it was valid. We really need to talk to an attorney.
As for me, I am going to file my I 485 by July 31st if I dont receive the reciept notice from USCIS. We can just show other proofs that it was more than 15 days that we filed our I 140.

Prince,
I am sure it could be a mistake from CIS, you should be fine after your MTR submission.
I myself changed employer after 180 days, I am working for second employer now after my GC sopnsered employer. I have not informed CIS yet, planning to do now as I got kind of good and stable job and company.
Initinally after 180 days I have joined a small consulting company and working for a client and then after some time client offered a fulltime employment with same titile and responsibilties. I have joined the client and willing to send AC21 letter now, anybody any sugessions would help me here.
Prince I wish you good luck and pray for you.
Thanks,
M
Hey guys
Just received email from CRIS regarding I-485 denial notice for both me and my wife.
I used AC21 after 9 months of filing I-485. My I-140 was approved before even filing I-485 in July fiasco.
My attorney promptly sent AC-21 and G-28 and i did see LUD on my and my wife's I-485 after that.
My previous company informed me sometime ago that they are going to revoke I-140 and probably they did and i am assuming that's what triggered this.
This is certainly a big damm mistake they did even after sending AC-21 docs and G-28.

Just to clarify. You say that "a person with an MBA plus a 4 year bachelors from a US univ. will be exempt" but you don't really need the 4 year bachelors from a US university. The MBA from a U.S. university is enough to be exempt, even if your bachelor degree is from outside the U.S.
You are right. I typed it wrong. I really meant to say "4 years of bachelors from anywhere (which is equivalent to a US bachelors degree)". I was making the point about four years because some non-us bachelors degrees are 3 years, and they do not accept 3 years + masters as equivalent to US bachelors + masters as the number of years of schooling would be one year less.

GO_GUY,
How much finance is required to do MBA in canada say in top 50 universities. Can we get financial aid for international students?
There is no aid for international students. U of T is very expensive for international students, 86K CAD for MBA. Try others like U of Calgary, Alberta etc. very reasonable.
check out their website.

Its not a merit system, its a disguised diversity visa in the name of skills/merit. What kind of merit system will not have qualifying points? Its a shame that Sen Kennedy's website gave examples of how people ranging from 50-89 points can get GC's. Just call it diversity visa. Its a lie of massive proportions. When is Sen Kennedy up for election?
Dude he is a Kennedy...he is a senior senator from MA and for all intents & purposes is in senate for life...

Everyone, there seems to be some confusion about IV's strategy.
We recognize that there are some harmful provisions in these bills, but there are also a lot of good provisions.
We have the logic and numbers on our side, so our strategy is to present the facts and ask for the bad provisions to be removed, but we will still support the bills.

Is it not all about the bottomline?
Can any one of you as a single person make a difference? NO
Can WE as a group make a difference? YES and we have proved that.
Are WE focused as a group? Yes. In its entirety? No, and we will probably never be since we are a group.
This mess was not created by the guy with a PD of 2007 but by USCIS. So, you can hate USCIS all you want but what did the guy with PD2007 do. He just got lucky. He got lucky, plain and simple. Why should anybody feel bad about someone else's luck?
Come on guys, at least some of us are seeing the end of the light. Don't think I am PD 2007. My PD is Dec 2003. This is my fourth employer I am pursuing my GC with. I started working in 1997 and my first labor was filed in 1997. For various reasons I had to switch. I have seen all different cases. People who came in 2004 and got their GC by 2005. Is it fair? No, but it isn't the guy's fault. It is USCIS's and that's what we are trying to change. One issue at a time.
This was a can't miss opportunity caused by the USCIS foul-up. Nobody could miss out on pursuing this. Now that we are done with that, I am sure core will focus on other important issues like BEC victims etc.
Hope that helps. Peace!

My experince in porting EB3 to EB2.
One of my friend labor was applied in Eb3 since he was not eligible for eb2 in 2002. His labor and I-140 was cleared in 2006 and waiting to apply I-485.
Meanwhile he got promotion in same company. So he applied for EB2 labor.
(If 50% of job duties change you can claim experience gained in that company.)
He applied another labor in Eb2.
Eb2 labor cleared from same company.
I-140 cleared (ported old priority date.)
Applied I-485 in early 2007.
He got GC by end of 2007.
My case was also similar.
My labor was applied in 2002 in Eb3 since i was not eligible for eb2 in 2002.
Labor and I-140 cleared in 2006.
Got promotion in same company. I asked my company to apply labor in EB2 and port PD. They agreed to pay potion of the cost.
My Eb2 labor approved in 2007 (perm)
I-140 approved but Texas service enter screwed my case they did not ported by old priority date. I-140 approved with PD date 2007.
My attorney requested USCIS to port PD but no luck till now.
I spent 7000$ for this.
Bottom line is Porting of PD from Eb3 to Eb2 worked for some people only.

I have been to the indian consulate couple of times and what I have seen so far is that people staying in the US take the consulate officers for granted.
People take the token and start filling up the form in the consulate itself, they will be at the window and will be pasting photograph or filling up the form itself on the counter.
I think the consulate officer should ask people that will you behave the same way at an US consulate??
People become impatient just waiting for 10 minutes as if they entire indian consulate has been waiting for them to show up at the office.
The way we Indians behave boarding a flight in US, the same does not happen in India. The way we behave with the consulate officers at Indian consulate does not happen at the US consulate. Why do not the same people trying filling up the form at the US consulate or try pasting photograph and even run to grab the original when they are at an US consulate.
We want the same level of professional at the Indian consulate then we need to show the same level of professional at Indian consulate that we show at US consulates.

Interesting observations Deepak. Issues are not very simple and are very deeply rooted to even think about changing them. To begin with there are tooooooooo many mouths to feed and people still dont realize the importance of population control:(:( Whe demand heavily outweighs available resourses then competition increases (basic to Darwinism). Primal instincts of survival come into play and behavioural modifications visible in the western nation are easily wiped off. Generally people have a desire that things be in an order but unfortunately due to the population stress prevailing in India, "disorder, corruption, favoritism" are the "order".
Will your generation be able to see this change? Possibly not?
Introduce the same stressors in the west and you will notice the same habbits surface here too. Natures way of dealing I guess??
One thing is for sure; If you practice non-violence in thought and action then chances are that your surroundings will ultimately reflect that same back to you. The way you react is most important than what the surroundings actually are. :D:D:D:D:D
Just read through a few posts in this thread and you will see "different" types of reactions and the ensuing emotions....That is all going no where. It all goes back into the global cloud of emotions and thoughts that you and me subscribe to, to live through this life.....Putting good out and taking good in is the only thing we can do...

It's not a surprise that TheOmbudsman is hated so much here. Guy who refers Bill O'Reilly to support his comments- "It turned out that Bil O'Reilly last night said the same thing." bound to get this reaction!! Bill O'Reilly himself said he is second most hated person in US during the interview with Mr. President!!
Looks like TheOmbudsman following his footsteps to become No.1!!

Its not over till its over :), and its not over yet by any means. I am willing to wait and fight ;) . Everyone has priorities in life, each person would view GC situation differently. For me, its not the ultimate dream, but just a vehicle to continue my journey for some more time (with peace of mind). I am definitely looking to gray my hair in my home country or atleast be there once I am grayed haired :D
Doing an MBA/PMI and looking for managerial job is the only realistic possibility for most, I don't think most people would wanna still be programming when they turn 40/45 (depending on how old/young you feel).
My gut feel is that there will be some kind of relief by end of 2007 or early 2008
