hydboy77,
This seems to be an entirely new issue. I think it deserves to have its own thread. Let the current thread handle the original issue.
Thanks.
Dear Administrator2\IV core,
Just getting the provision to file AOS when priority date is not current without the other provisions that are related to pre filing AOS like "removal of semilar\same job restriction when using EAD\AC21" is not good. Dont get me wrong I understand how much the guys who missed out on the july fiasco want to prefile AOS and get EAD but without the provision to remove the restriction of same\semilar job requirement in AC 21 it (EAD) is useless. By now everyone knows that USCIS is heavily issuing RFE or denial notices for h1b transfer and extension. It is just a matter of time before USCIS starts issuing RFE or denial notice on EAD\485 as well. The prime candidate for USCIS to kick out people using EAD\485 is the same or semilar job restriction while using EAD\AC21. If everyone gets to pre file AOS without PD restrictions then USCIS will make using EAD as difficult as using H1b. Please fight for the removal of "same\semilar job requirement in AC 21" along with prefiling AOS so that everybody gets true relief and it really becomes a win win situation, otherwise it is a waste and will speed up uscis making life miserable for EAD workers.

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? :)
The Australian visa is called E3, not E1. E3 is like a simplified H1B that can be renewed indefinitely and yes, dependents can work anywhere. The filing process is quick and inexpensive. There is a quota of 10,000 per year, not including dependents. Given that Australia only uses a few thousand H1's a year, this is a very attractive visa.
In the Australian press it was implied that the US govt passed the E3 visa as payback for Australia's support in the Iraq war. Originally it was supposed to be part of a free trade agreement.

bigtime007/8 is clearly a sinner. However, modern civilizations do not kill most sinners. We need to find an atonement prescription for bigtime007/8.
We need to count his (her) posts and persons whom s/he has offended. Then, s/he has to post twice as many posts that offend anti-immigrants and offend twice as many anti-immigrants in non IV blog sites.
To begin with atonement, bigtime007/8 should start studying blogs attached to following articles.

Here is a message from Ajoba regarding the San Jose rally....
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I must say that this is a great great effort. Both, the flower campaign and the rally. Nothing like this has been done before by wanna-be immigrants. We are hardworking, law abiding, well educated people. But until now, the general opinion was that we are at the mercy of the American immigration system. I was especially so frustrated when some of my friends thought that there was nothing wrong in what the USCIS did. Their response was simply "what can we do? let's just re-apply when the dates become current again". Historically, Indians (at least, from my experience) have been hesitant to protest against the wrongdoings of their rulers. This is seen even today, when we fear to raise our voice when our bosses or managers at work exploit us, or our advisers/professors exploit us, or if the USCIS changes rules in the middle of the game. In India too, the general opinion is "Nothing is going to change, let's not get into trouble". This rally has shown that things are changing. We all should wake up, and fight for our rights! I could not attend the rally as I am based in Michigan, but I thank all of you who protested for me and my family. I will do my best to support this effort in whatever way I can.
I am honestly curious. What changed in two months? You were desperate then, and you are not now?

Background: I am on 7th year of H1B (7-10 year extension based on approved 140). My H1stamping is valid till 2010. Applied 485 on Aug 1st 2007. Did not apply for EAD/AP.
Loosing job in my company is becoming realistic scenario in near future(no predictions yet) so...
Scenario 1: If in next few weeks (before 180days or AC21) I have to change Jobs, Can my new employer just transfer H1B (since H1B was extended on approved 140 Hence the confusion) or do they have to go through PERM + 140 and then do H1B transfer ? What happens if my employer revoke 140 (based on which i had the H1 extension) Do I loose ability to transfer H1B?
Scenario 2: If after 180 days (from aug 1st) I have to change job (using AC21) ..can my H1 be transferred to another employer without having a labor / 140 or will the new employer have to go through PERM + 140 to transfer H1?
I understand EAD is an option so I will apply for EAD but looking at number of applications it may be months before I get EAD card.
Thanks in advance

Include Sep approvals as well, they can’t use all the visas in the month of Aug it self, it never happened before (in fact they wasted thousands of visas by the end of the fiscal each year in the past). This is the first time they have determined (?) to use all the visas, don’t expect 100% success in the first attempt it self. The system has not been fine tuned yet to that level of success.
For Sep, the EB2 dates will remain same or might even move further few months. Oct bulletin will be the interesting one. If there are very little approvals during Aug & Sep, it will move back considerably. If there are so many approvals in the tune of 15-20k, then EB2 PD will go back slightly (say Jan 06) but will move forward at healthy rate. Come last quarter of 2008-09, there will be quantum leap again.
only the month of AUg approvals is going to validate or invalidate...but makes sense so far. ;-)

let's keep working on it.
Actually, it was published in every major paper in the US, as well as in India, China, Canada, and a number of other countries. It was this broad coverage that led to the New York Times editorial. I have also seen mention of it on several news TV channels. And more is to come. The LA Times will be doing a story very soon.

Shall we offer a prayer in the major church for all congress men to do the needful so that people will come to know the problems we are facing and we'll have to attend the prayer in IV shirts.
Put adds on major news even if it cost's us urging all legal high skill workers to attend the prayer.

I think somebody should take an initiative and start a new thread called "THE BASHING THREAD" where everybody could go, (occasionally or in some cases very frequently) whenever we feel dejected and let it on whoever is active there. You could also invite your prey into the bashing thread by saying politely "If you are brave meet me in the bashing thread in 5 minutes".
In case somebody starts a new thread (for eg:- something like this very thread about airline induced missery) and if you feel angry at that person for doing so, you could simply post in the thread "Hallo friend please visit the BASHING THREAD for my reply" instead of hurling personal abuses in every thread we could effectively confine our ego created frustrations/anger into one single thread.
Computer gurus could work on it and try to create some special effects also, like if I bash somebody the degree to which that person is hurt should be reflected by color change or some sort of visual reference.

True if one want to die for Citizenship , But job market is not as great as here. One needs to be really lucky to be there and I also agree that its lot easier in life once you have a stable job. I have some friends who are well settled and enjoying a cool life. WHere as some are still looking for one and many moved back to US or Gulf once they got citizenship so it all depends... But Certain Citizenship of Canada is easiest compared to that of US and well respected too compared to US.
Kris04,
Appreciate your realastic advise, I believe its worth one dies in canada for citizenship. I would say CANADA is a great nation and citizenship is widely respected, on top of everything you are widely allowed to any country.

I do not recommend Attorney Richard Prinz , Houston.
In my experience he is terribly slow, do not communicate with clients , do not pay attention to details.
His incompetence , has caused a colleague to miss the opportunity to file I485 before the retrogression kicked in july 2004 (?) and poor guy had to wait 3 years until jun 2007 to file his I485.
He hasnt filed I1485 yet ,for 2 cases from our firm, with PD current in June 07 , though the docs were provided with all the forms filled by mid june.
Once he collects the money he does not entertain any communications and says "your if u send me email or call about the case it will be further delayed".
His lack of attention caused me a denial on my I140.
I did not know abt these cases before i I had to deal with delays and denial in my own case.
He has only 2 admin assistants in the office. He still uses an aol dialup connection ,so you can imagine how updated he is.
Its frustrating when u need to be at lawyers mercy to get your case filed after paying big $$.

See the bold text. Because the bill is yanked out, amendments are added to the bill and now it is going to be put back as a new bill.
http://www.heritage.org/Research/Immigration/2007legislation_2.cfm
The Senate's Second Secret Immigration Bill
by The Heritage Foundation
FYI
For weeks, Americans were told that there are only two options for dealing with the nation's illegal immigration problem: stay with the status quo or accept a "grand bargain"--a tenuous behind-closed-doors deal, first made public by The Heritage Foundation, which contained nearly 800 pages of flawed policies. In the face of overwhelming criticism from all sides, this legislation was withdrawn from the Senate.
Now, an altogether new bill (S. 1639) has been introduced by Senators Ted Kennedy and Arlen Specter. It seems to incorporate the previous legislation, with some amendments. After it is read into the Senate calendar on Wednesday, the Majority Leader will be able to proceed to consider this legislation anew at any time; debate is likely to follow later this week, with a final vote very soon thereafter.
This schedule will afford lawmakers even less time for consideration and deliberation than they had before. It will deny them the various procedures long associated with America's deliberative lawmaking process--hearings, testimony, committee debate and amendments, floor debate, and the possibility of further amendments. Instead, according to reports, this legislation will proceed based on an altogether new and expedited procedure designed for the sole purpose of forcing the bill's many ill-conceived policies over legitimate minority objections.
As it has before, for the sake of open deliberation and public education, The Heritage Foundation is making this legislation publicly available to encourage widespread debate and discussion. Heritage Foundation analysts will be reading this legislation and considering its implications--as will everyone outside the confines of the narrow group that conceived it--as quickly as possible.
So if this bill is introduced as a new one with a new bill number, does that May 15th provision still stand? Or is it now gonna be June 19th ?
