Guys -
Senator Cornyn is proposing an amendment to the DOD bill SA 2143. I am not able to read the text of this in Senate.org. We may have to start our campaign again for a permanent fix soon.
NumbersUSA is reporting this in their website. Please we need to mobilize soon.

I was also taken aback initially when I read this. The 8 year wait doesnt apply to title 5. Title 5 already is designed to clear the backlog of EB immigration from 6 years to 0/at best minimum since quota is increased and there are exemptions. The 8 year backlog refers to family based.
Thnx agan!!

Below is the comment some body gave me in the rating thingie:
"YES LETS NOT HAVE ANY INCREASE IN H1B AND EVEN BETTER IS TO SEND U BAK TO INDIA SO WE HAVE MORE GC'S AVAILABLE, FOOL"
I think he/she wanted to say more, but the system may not have allowed that.:)
I think IV community will start working as a coherent team only when we get rid of the Green/Red thingie.

If you really think about it, it is a fair business price. Remember, the lawyer gets all his money by billing clients like you. He has to figure in his establishment costs such as rent, employee salaries, insurance, etc. Add to that the unpredictability of future business (e.g., if he gets work only for 10 days of the month, he still has to pay salaries to staff for the whole month), taxes (including soc. security, medicare, etc. that he has to pay for himself and for staff) and the risk of liability (e.g. what if you sue for malpractice?) and you get the high price.
Of course, it is a market economy, and people can always choose a better and cheaper source for the service. But at some point you will hit bottom, below which the business will be a loss maker, and this bottom will still be high for many!
$320 an hr!
His 'RFE response' charges were $450!
go figure...
lotsa people are making money out of the s*ituation we are in!

Please see the update in Oh law's site
Under the update July 2007 VB, visa number was unable for the entire July 2007. It remained such until July 17, 2007 when both DOS and USCIS reversed their positions. There could be some 104(c) H-1B three-year extension petitions filed in July bore the 17th. Since the July 2007 VB has been reversed and remains "current" in July, it will remain a challenging issue for these filers. Those who file after July 17, 2007 and before August 1, 2007 may not be entitled to the benefit of 104(c) extension. Accordingly, those who need three-year extension under 104(c) should not file the H-1B extension until after August 1, 2007 to obtain three year extension, even though they will have to pay the increased filing of $320 rather than the current $190. In August, the EB visa number will remain "unavailable" for the entire EB classifications, presenting the best opportunity to file such 104(c) three-year increment H-1B extension petition. What a twist and irony of the development of events?
This is new to me. Can you please indicate the site address of this memo?
Thanks

Well I checked with my old employer's legal dept and the lawyer and they won't be revoking my 140........also since its a soft LUD so it should not be so far related to my layoff....
However since my employer will be informing USCIS of my H1B termination in 30 to 45 days I guess I will have to be on a lookout for an RFE by mid may....
In the mean time I have filed a new G28 through my own lawyer and am trying get into a job soon and file AC21........
Lets see who will win the race of paperwork and beurocratic bullshit...... :eek:
Another day in paradise....... :rolleyes:

Please edit the title and post to correct spelling of "insurance". It looks very negative in our home page while we are claiming to be highly skilled immigrants.

Has anyone claimed unemployment benefits in EAD in TX state after being laid off? Can you please tell whats the procedure. I do not want to get into the debate of whether UB can be claimed while in AOS state? I just need to know the procedure. Thanks.

Hello,
My husband and I submitted I-485 last year (I am not currently working). He already got the green card and mine is still pending. I've got my Advanced Parole in hand. We plan to visit Canada in May . I'd like to ask someone in similar situation regarding applying a temporary resident Canada visa.
On the column 8 of the 5257 Form "Applicant for a temporary resident visa made outside of Canada", "Immigration status of applicant in country where applying", which optioin should I pick? (Permanent Resident?) What date should I put in the box "valid until"?
When mailing the visa application, which supporting document should I send? Only the AP and I-485 receipt?
Anyone with similar experience could give some advice?? Thanks very much!!!

Yes I sent it to correct address Lockbox, AZ. Thanks for asking me to confirm.
Dhundhun, If you saved a copy of mailed check, Please look for any technical errors like amount in words/figures . Also check for whom it was written ( They demand it to be written for: US Department of Homeland Security) not abbreviations DHS or so.
Duplicate filing may be okay but may involve stop payment of check n withdrawal of 'right' application -- may create a kinda confusion if it is already in process missing on-line updates. Unfortunately, we are always on the receiving end..
BTW: mine was delivered at Phoenix,AZ on 4/12, checks cashed on 4/23 and I received RN yesterday, it is late but most are getting in 2-3 wks time.

That's very true but the fact that you will no longer be tied to one employer/career and can freely move around the industry to find that dream job is worth much more than EAD fee, unless ofcourse you already have that dream job. :rolleyes:
This can be very important when your spouse cannot work now. Irrespective of this, EAD renewals have to be thought about every 8-9 months or so (remember someone saying you need to apply 3 months in advance).
Maybe you will have to take up a side job to pay for your frequent EAD renewals.:cool:
