Dear newbie2020, QASleuth, NolaIndian and Others,
I will be there for this conference call.
Sorry folks for staying away from the communication going on in this thread for some time. I am personally going through some changes now. This Wednesday evening I came to know that my present job assignment is going to end shortly. (Fortunately, I have a new job offer). Now I am in the process of trying to get into this new job and it will take time to get adjusted to this new job. This means, I have to leave my H1b and use AC21/EAD to accept the new job. I had a conversation with one of the attorneys of Murthy law firm regarding all the Pros and Cons of my Job change. I documented the whole conversation and will be posting that to this site shortly for everyone else's use.
Even though I just posted this idea in this site, Guys please don't wait for anyone else's leadership. If you feel you can take this up, please do. It's your idea too. Do not give ownership of any idea to anyone. Why I am writing this at this point of time is I am going through some job transition for which I need a month or 2. So, my participation in this effort may not be up to my own expectations. However I will do whatever I can during this period and much more once I settle in my new job.
Will be in touch.
Sure,
We can setup a Conference call next week Wednesday 3/3/09 8:30PM EST
Here is the bridge info for folks interested in joining
Bridge number: +1 218 339 2626
Passcode: 245906
Bridge can accomodate upto 150 people.

1) Since the letter refers to "we" (the legal immigrants), should we be individually signing the letter?
2) Are we going to provide our mailing address as well as email IN THE EVENT that there will be a response to our questions?
3) What happens if there is no response?
4) In the letter, I said action must be taken in the remaining 15 days .. BUT HOW CAN ANYTHING BE DONE AS THE STANDARD RESPONSE IS "the annual quota is exhausted" ??? i.e., there are no more visas to allocate!!

Giving GC to STEM graduates is not the right way. If US needs to keep these educated people in US then US needs to make sure these educated people get an H1B without any issues and then they are on the path to GC like everyone else because H1B is a dual intenet visa. Jumping from a F1 visa to a GC visa is not correct as F1 visa is not a immigration intenet visa
If you want plain speak then ...
Why should STEM graduates have it easy when a H1B has to struggle and wait in liner to get a GC.
I would agree to this only is the requirement is made so that only PHD and scientist who have atleats acouple of research papers published be given GC and not every Tom, Dick and harry who completes 4 years engg degree in india from a 2 bit university and whose parents have money and uses this money to pay for 2 years MS.
People who are going to benefit by this will support this. Others oppose.
I believe you belong to latter.
One thing to remember is this provision helps STEM grads irrespective of their EB-class.
legal speak: right now law does exist. F1 to GC would be illegal. This provision is to make the conversion legal
plain speak: look beyond your own situation. Since you are not going to benefit directly, does not mean you stand against it.
Lastly, everybody's parents don't have so much money like you think. People do get 13% student loans in India to fund their studies.

The media needs to know, I do not have any idea how.
Media will know - if we get enough numbers. I am already in touch with a couple of journalists but the critical thing is to get a good number to make a media event out of it. The current poll shows 53 Ayes and 124 Nays - well that's not going to cut it. We need more people to order tomorrow otherwise delivery window for Tuesday morning will be shut off.

Join the DC Rally on Sept 18th.
with Presidential elections next year and new govt after that, there
is a greater chance that the legislative reform can happen only now
or after long time, may be like after 3 years. So act now or be
prepared to be in limbo for years ahead.
It is very important that we attened the rally and get ourselves out
of the probationary status that we are in. Probationary status both
in career and family life. The GC wait time could be 10
years if you have a PD of jan 2005 or later. Currently it looks like
we would be in this GC limbo for several more years unless we ACT NOW.
Imagine yourself living with the EAD/AP renewal, cannot really in all
trueness be able to work for and work on what you really want and
what your true potential is. Its just so nightmarish aaggghhh soooo
depressing... to remain in the same job designation and same
salary years ahead... for any person with self-esteem and self-
respect...
Lets get our Life back.
Are you not tired of this probationary life ? if you are tired of
AP/EAD renewals , If you have filed your 485 after 2-3 years of
wait , If you are stuck in FBI name check , if you are tired of
arbitraryness/randomness of USCIS's GC processing and approval...
This is the time to step up and help yourself.
Please step up and save yourself and your family from this waiting
game...
Lets get our American Dream !!
If any of you were/are still on the edge and still contemplating to
join.

So typical of you guys. Once you lose an argument you start abusing and if the opponent is a female its more the merrier for you guys. Do you even know the basis rule of being polite with everyone in USA. So if the guy is an american you will kiss his feet. The moment the person is an indian you start abusing if it is an indian female then you have a licence to abuse

No cap would be the best solution... but that is very tough to sell in Washington....That's why all this complications of asking to take dependents out of the cap and allowing overflow to go to China/India...
As I understand, IV already made these arguments to senators and even the senators who are sympathetic to immigration are not willing to remove the cap..The only thing they would accept is that the overflow would go to India/China/oversubscribed countries....I wonder if one of the core members would comment on this.....You do not need to name names....Just a request give a description of your interactions with law makers in this regard...That would put this issue to rest.....
theortically what longg says is correct.The system is not fair......but not many are listening to us at this point...So we have to find some way out of the situation.....
We need both alisa and longg as members because we need more to get traction in Washington.....the only common solution for these would be to get the numbers increased somehow....Otherwise EB3-EB3-India-China-ROW keep fighting each other...you would have nothing....
If the DOS says this is because this what the law establishes:
"The annual per-country limitation of 7% is a cap, meaning visa issuances to any single country may not exceed this figure. This limitation is not a quota to which any particular country is entitled, however. The per-country limitation serves to avoid monopolization of virtually all the visa numbers by applicants from only a few countries.
How do you like if people from a certain country go to India to take all your jobs?

As many are aware, there was a huge rush to buy and sell pre-approved labors during July-August 2007, when all the priority dates were suddenly made current. Tens of thousands of labors were sold by fraudulent consulting companies to many questionable GC seekers, who hadn�t even started the process till then.
It is those substituted labors which are clogging the pipelines now. Just think, last month EB3-I stood at November 2001. Now it is completely unavailable. It can�t possibly be because so many pending labors with such old priority dates suddenly got cleared this month, and beneficiary of these labors filed 140+485 together. I seriously doubt that a candidate whose labor is pending since such a long time is even keeping that GC process alive. In all likelihood he/she must have moved on in life.
There is only one explanation. These labors were already pre-approved. It is the attached I-140 on these labors that are getting approved rapidly. And the subsequent I-485 petitions on these applications are depleting the visa numbers.
The reason of this post is not to start an argument about the ethics of labor substitution. It is just a FYI post to explain the seemingly inexplicable. The chickens are coming home to roost.
Not completely agreed. Same as people filed in EB2 - no more qualified just better luck that their employers agreed and job description fit with EB2. Unlucky people like me got into EB3. I say EB2 are clogging....
This will take us to nowhere. Lets concentrate on something positive like recapture.

wtf are u talking abt? water boarding? windsurfing? osmosis? archery? shacking..:D.
I guess you are trying to be funny here, I get that but please make atleast half an attempt to understand the issues before making a snide remark.
Osmosis == the tendency of a fluid, usually water, to pass through a semipermeable membrane into a solution where the solvent concentration is higher, thus equalizing the concentrations of materials on either side of the membrane.
Socio-Economic Osmosis == When you have a developed/super rich country across the borders with opportunities which do not exist in your homeland, people tend to move from one area to the other.
I take you have not heard of "waterboarding". Google for the term and you would perhaps see what you have missed in the last 6 years.
