I would like IV and this members here to try and verify this report
http://www.zazona.com/ShameH1B/Library/Archives/SaveSS.htm
This appears to be complete propoganda by anit-immigrants, I would like to know if there are any legal way to challenge these guys not spread false information.
can we sue this guys, I myself has paid Social security for 9 years since I came to US
This report is full of rubbish. It tries to present facts carefully, and then purposely distorts them in the end. It says India is expemt from that treaty, which means Indians have to pay SS taxes. Then it goes on say the exact opposite. I am quite sure we don't have the money to sue them, but it will be nice to find the roots of the Hudson institute.
But on a side note, here is what is not smart about talking to lawmakers' offices about SS taxes; I have tried and failed. They hear lots of complaints about SS tax from citizens because there is a general feeling (fear) that the SS system will go bankrupt. So even citizens may find that their SS taxes have come to nothing. Also, if you raise the issue of general taxes, they are surprised to hear that we would actually raise that as an issue. I have been told that every batch of legal immigrants has paid taxes before becoming citizens. (BTW, I don't think like an anti-immigrant :))

My wife went for H4 visa on Dec 19. I booked flight ticket on 28th. So it seems like I need to postpone the date by at least a week.
Your comments are welcome...Thanks!!
That's too short a wait. You have to give atleast 10 working days to be safe. It takes 7 working days for many people these days and if you are lucky you can get it sooner than that.

Thanks for the support, appreciate it a lot.
We need to put a sticky thread, where we can brainstorm and put best ways to switch from EB3 to EB2 w/keeping older PDs.
Even lobby to allow EB3 to EB2 with the same employer.
Thanks a lot. Together we can. Yes we can�.

Transfer of the Earlier Priority Date : EB3 to New EB2
�MurthyDotCom
The ability to transfer priority dates from an earlier, approved, I-140 to a later-filed I-140 could provide an alternative for job mobility, both within the current employer's organization or with a new employer. This would be helpful for those who want to make a change but are not eligible to file the I-485 application because of retrogression. It also could help people who are eligible to change from an EB3 classification to EB2. One would be eligible to request a transfer of the priority date from the earlier-filed EB3 petition to a new EB2 petition once the I-140 is approved. The new EB2 petition would need to be based upon a new LC for a position requiring the EB2 level of education and/or experience. (Over time, many people with EB3 cases have become eligible for EB2 cases due to increased experience and/or education, and promotions.)
This strategy potentially could shave off a few years in the queue for available immigrant visa numbers. This may be particularly appealing to those who had EB3 labor certifications filed on their behalf long ago and have had their cases pending while they have gained advanced degrees, acquired several more years of experience, and/or are offered jobs at higher levels. Keep in mind, though, that this involves filing a whole new LC under the PERM system for a new job opportunity and that the employer must actually require the additional degree and/or experience for all persons holding that job classification in order for the new case to be filed as EB2.

I think this will give you some answers!

It is hard to believe that someone can suddenly change policy internally and not talk about it. In my case the officer id who issued denial is different from the officer id who issued NOID.
UNITEDNATIONS - for some reason, I think you are trying to spread unnecessary fear with your conspiracy theories. Agreed that USCIS is going tough on consulting companies and that stuff, but "internal policy change" seems to be more of a conspiracy.
UN probably didn't realize that the officer id. was different. The id. being different is a good thing, it makes the likelihood of the IO not having noticed the old NOID higher.
I am sure you are under a lot of stress, and I feel your pain, but click on UN's profile and look at his old posts carefully, he knows what he is talking about.
Again, hope things work out in your favor, keep us posted.

Salient features of Bill: S.1085
After analyzing this bill, I found the following:
1. This bill will recapture all those unused employment based visas (gcs) from 1992 till 2008 and it will add those recaptured visas to this year's employment based quota.
2. After the passage of this bill, any unused visas will rollover to the next year. So, no more wastage of visas as we go forward.
3. Per country limit will be increased from 7% to 10%, so more folks from over subscribed countries would be able to come under the normal yearly quota.
4. We will be able to avail the benefits of the recapture after 60 days of the passage of the bill. That means, if they are able to recapture 220,000 (approx) employment based visas, the employment based category will be able to use all those after 60 days of the passage of this bill. USCIS is pre-adjudicating all I485s pending and if this bill gets passed in say for eg by October 30, almost all (80%) in this community (who filed 485) would be able get their GCs in Jan and Feb of 2010.
What makes this bill much more interesting is:
1. This is not a bill targetting the issues of Employment based category - So there won't be a huge backlash against this in the name of the economy and recession. The provisions for the employment category are just one item in this bill.
2. Family based immigration reform has a wider range of support from all kinds of groups unlike Employment based immigration reform. Just search for this bill "Reuniting Families Act" in google news and you can identify all those organizations supporting this bill (they all have a news release).

It may not look as bad but this is a time to step back and take a better look on every step moving forward. This is a very testing time for the economic outcome in the next few months. A very sad episode to have come upon an Indian family my heartfelt condolence to them.
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Death_of_American_Dream_Indian_kills_family_self_i n_LA/rssarticleshow/3568703.cms
WASHINGTON: Multiple gunshots echoed in the upscale home of an Indian family in a quiet, gated, suburban Los Angeles community last weekend, echoing the troubled times in America.
When police turned up on Monday morning after calls from a concerned neighbor waiting for a carpool ride, they found the body of 45-year old Karthik Rajaram, an unemployed financial adviser, lying in one room with a handgun he had used to shoot himself dead.
With him lay his two youngest sons Arjuna (7) and Ganesha (12), both shot dead. In different rooms across the house they found the bodies of Karthik’s wife Subasri (39), his mother-in-law Indra Ramasesham (69), and his eldest son Krishna (19). They all appeared to have been shot to death by Karthik Rajaram.
Police also found two suicide notes – one for the cops and one for extended family and friends -- and a will. In them, Rajaram he spoke of his financial difficulties and took responsibility for killing his family members, police said.

Hi Guys,
Considering that we have all spent enough time stuck in the same job for several years it makes sense to prepare for the time if/when we actually get green card.
So I was wondering if anyone here has weighed and compared the cost and benefit of PMP vs MBA. Any thoughts would be helpful.
Take Care

PMP can take you to Project Management, and with experience higher up in the sr management.
With MBA from a good school you can start at serious management level.
It doesn't have to be vs, you can do both.

Unfortunately, country of birth for PD determination is one thing that cannot change. It is ridiculous that a country like the US that promotes itself as a meritocracy and a country of second chances ties the fate of EB applicants to such an immutable parameter.
I understand that your priority date is based on country of birth. I have read that you can use your spouse's country of birth. What if you have nationality in a country for over 20yrs but born in India. My parents emigrated to Europe when I was three months old, and I was naturalised there. The spouse rule doesn't apply to me because my wife is born in India too. Is there a rule anywhere that makes you eligibile to file under a particular quota if you had nationality in that country for a VERY long time? I was told no, so throwing this out to the group for advice. No hopes that I will hear otherwise.
Thanks to all.

I do not intend to question IV and its members who are pretty diligent about things, are entirely trustworthy and neither have they given us any reason to think otherwise. IMHO the monthly thing does not work. Some people cannot afford monthly payments due to other commitments (some are less fortunate than others). They may opt for one time payments rather than monthly payments.
I think what we need is target oriented funding drives. For example:
What are the objectives for the lobbying effort this year and consequently how much money do we need for lobbying efforts? $100,000, $200,000 or $500,000
By putting collection targets up front we can direct our energies towards that target. I know that every cent counts and every dollar will be beneficial. But if we don't know and don't communicate what our target is we can never focus on the goal. A monetary target for a clear objective is something many people can relate to and a one time payment is more attractive than monthly payments.
Cheers

You do NOT have to go anywhere - what you are saying is "SBI Rapid Remittance" by SBI where the money will reach your Foreign account the very next day ( But you might have to wire the money as well to BOA-NY or SBI-NY ?)
www.onlinesbi.com/rr - This is SBI's response to rapid exchange.
What i'm talking is "SBI Direct Remit" & takes 3-4 business days but just click of computer mouse once you are set up. I actually set it up Monday morning EST and Friday Morning EST i see my money at Foreign account. No need to open a account at SBI-NY or anywhere but its good to have the target account at SBI ( it can be your mom/dad's SBI a/c or yours , doesn't matter really )
www.onlinesbi.com/glsus
P.S: By the way - i also had the idea that SBI is "sarkari bank" - slow , unprofessional etc... etc.. But the band of peoples who handles this division are really young and bright - my experience for last 6 months is just terrific. Customer Serivice also replies via email the next morning ...
Good info, thanks. I recently registered with the SBI NY (http://www.statebank.com/) branch office, to use their remittance service to send money home (to an SBI India account), but you have to fill out and mail a remittance form to them each time you want to do this.

Lets move on and focus on this main topic...
Here are my observations.. Correct me if I am wrong..
1. L1 option for IT is essentially killed
2. Small IT companies will limit the headcount to 50 per company. It doesn't cost much to have more than one company. So no major changes to H1B Desi companies.
3. Most of the big American companies will not offer new H1B with 180 days, since most of them would have had layoffs.
4. Most IT companies will start spending a lot on lawyers. So they will be rich. There will be lot of audits.
5. Companies will complete PERM and I140 before getting a guy onsite, only if people are really interested in coming to USA any longer.
6. Need more clarity on where H1B outsourcing will be stopped...

I agree with you.But,there are some other good things you get when you have a home.
1) Tax benefits when you file your tax return.
2) Comfort and convenience of a home,which you don't get with Apartments.
3) If you have a backyard,your kids will have lots of space for playing.
4) privacy of idependent living space.
But there are risks associated with home buying !
-----------
I will repeat again, buying a house now is a bad idea, don't be swayed by on-paper profit making stories of other people. va_labor, you were lucky to buy a house in 2002.
On paper you do have 100K notional profit but things are different now. It would be interesting to see if you can make a 100K profit again by buying a house "now" and say selling it in 2010.
The houses are highly overpriced. Only people making suggestions for buying house "now" are realtors and please excuse me, va_labor, people who want to make 100K profit now on other suckers. Wait one to one & a half years more and you will get these same houses for cheap. va_labor ;) , If you want to make your 100K profit, you better sell you house now, or it might be too late in one or two years :)

On paper you do have 100K notional profit but things are different now. It would be interesting to see if you can make a 100K profit again by buying a house "now" and say selling it in 2010.
The houses are highly overpriced. Only people making suggestions for buying house "now" are realtors and please excuse me, va_labor, people who want to make 100K profit now on other suckers. Wait one to one & a half years more and you will get these same houses for cheap. va_labor ;) , If you want to make your 100K profit, you better sell you house now, or it might be too late in one or two years :)
