From The Contribution of Legal Immigration to the Social Security System (http://www.aila.org/content/default.aspx?docid=12396) By Stuart Anderson, February 2005
When you work and pay social security taxes, you earn social security credits. Most people earn the maximum of four credits per year. Each of the three main Social Security programs accumulates credits in the same way.
To qualify for retirement benefits you must have worked for at least 10 years for a total of 40 credits.
The amount of benefits is based on a person’s average earnings over 35 years. If a person is credited for less than 35 years of work, the missing years are averaged in as zeros, greatly reducing benefits.
Social Security benefits to current retirees are funded primarily out of the taxes paid by today’s workers. For that reason additional workers are extremely beneficial to America’s “pay as you go” system. (page 4)
Immigrants typically arrive near the start of their working years and may contribute to the system for up to four decades before receiving any benefits.
In addition, the immigrants have children who upon reaching working age immediately start paying into the Social Security system. These children will not receive any benefits for often more than 6 decades after the arrival to America of their immigrant parent.
By the time the child of the immigrant starts receiving benefits, the grandchild (or grandchildren) of the immigrant will already have been working and paying into the Social Security system for many years.

Even if i-140 is not approved one can still invoke ac21 (after fileing i485 and after 180 days) . But, your original employer has to answer if there is any i-140 rfe. And original employer can withdraw i-140 at any time until it get approved. So bottomline is, don't try to invoke ac21 until i-140 approved and your i485 is 180 days over.

You are absolutely right. Dems are only worried about illegals. Its good that they are no longer a majority in the House. I think we have better option for any kind of piecemeal bills with republicans only.
Thank God Dems are out otherwise Legals will never get anything till every illegal crossing the border is ahead of them. Democrats are only good for three kind of people:
Illegals
Illegals
Illegals
I hope Obama looses soon and we have some sanity of law

Also Mr O said out look for Eb2 india is grim and could have delay for decades .. where Eb3 india can be set to Oct 2001 in oct 2009. His whole prediction is based on current demand from USCIS.
Lets says he USCIS has 50k Eb2 india and 70k Eb3 india in back room. Now they both have 3k visas in a given year . if USCIS process ( Pre adjucted ) 40k Eb2 india cases and 4k Eb3 india and bring to DOS , DOS may think there are 10 time more cases in Eb2 india so it can take decades while Eb3 india has only 1k extra so it can be in a year. but reality is different.
hope that makes some thing clear to members..
Agree with that as well...that may impact PD determination (and it MAY), but the fact is:
EB2 and EB3 India people with PD after 2005 (just an arbitary year) will not get GC unless there is spill over....it will be 20 yrs without spill over....

I have also contacted a lwyer who is different from my company lawyer. She has offered to put my case forward to USCIS (not WOM) for $ 300. She said they have means of bringing the case to their attention if its fallen through the cracks.
Do you think its worth trying ? my only copncern is she wants me to sign a new G28 and Im worried about issues with my existing case since I dont want to mess withh my company lawyer and I think I want to keep him as the attorney on file. Per this new lawyer thats not an issue and they will only be the attorney for inquiry purposes.
Any feedback on if this is worth doing ?
What does that mean?
You should have asked for specifics.

who said that after a GC ppl would settle down for a permanent job. No way
after GC i need to mint money for my family & enjoy life too. I dont know about others tho. I will settle down in DC Belt area where one can keep gettin consultancy jobs one after the other and make a million. Most of them are Fed jobs for which one needs to have a clearance and for that one needs to have GC.
we can make a lot of $$$ per hour on such job. Assignments vary from 6 months to 18 months. What more do u want.
why work two jobs and burn our ass off...
we need to enjoy ur life too. If we only made money n neva spent it therez no use of it.:eek: :eek:
I NEED A GREEN CARD PERIOD!!!:) :) :) :)

She may not get a visitor's visa. Visitor's visa requires non-immigration intent, just like F-1. In your case, there is a very clear intent to immigrate, which may disqualify her from getting a visitor's visa.
OK guys, here is what I think. Being in US on a visitor visa, and then applying for an I-485 does seem like a violation of visa terms, but the other way round seem to be fine. I mean she can apply for an I-485 first in India, and then apply for a visitor visa later while her I-485 application is pending. While applying for a visitor visa she just has to honestly tell the consulate officer that her I-485 is pending and there should be no problems.
If this is not so, then it means that all those who have filed I-485 in their home countries through consular processing route are in effect barred from entering US till some decision is taken on their application. This sounds bizarre. Does not make sense. What do you say?

Hi Rajakannan:
You fall under either of the following two.
Positive thinking: You are a Gandhi
Realistic Thinking: You are smart .
Smart enough to mislead the crowd to postpone, so that you would get atleast yoursdone.
Man: be realistic.. people are waiting for four years like fools,, as of today there is no difference between 2003 Sept PD or 2007 May PD..
I donot even understand, how you can think like this...
Please donot open thiskind of discussion, people have better things to do in life than reading this..
Myself: I donot even waste a single min on this kind of threads, just wanted to request you to be more realistic...
BTW: can you post your PD details...
best wishes.
Most of us are concerned about short term goal of getting the application to uscis as quickly as possible , but think of the end result of whether your application be accepted if we rush, the uscis can come back and reject at any time from any date as it happened to Eb3-other workers. In any case there is a very good chance that your wife will kill u ;)

This thread seems to express my thoughts.
I used to wait till my dates got current. With my dates being current since November, I still wait with no sign of improvement.
I tried calling the 1-800 number. But, did not get any useful information.
Took an Infopass appointment couple of weeks back. But, it was of no use.
The officer at the local office read the same status that I see online.
She said that my case was transfered to Texas center. (I knew this since October 2007). Only additional information she gave me was that my namecheck got clreared. (Though this is important, I dont think this really matters to get my case processed).
I told her that I have been waiting since years and some of friends who filed later than me already got their GCs, she felt sorry for me but she said there is nothing she can do for me. Not even a Service Request since my dates are within the processing times.
Its getting difficult for me......Also, in this economy its getting tough everyday to hold on to the job. Who knows may be this year quota might be over too. It will definitely be a big relief if we get the GC.
I thought there is nothing I can do now till my dates goes outside the processing times. Please advice.
Good Luck to everyone.

Your employer will have to file a PERM and I-140 and once I-140 is approved in EB-2 with earlier EB-3 PD, request USCIS to adjudicate your pending I-1485 using the newly approved EB-2 I-140. No need to file another I-485 if you already have one pending.
Regarding the fee, there is no filing fee for PERM. All the costs are related to advertising and lawyer fee. I have no idea how much the fee for the whole process is or what attorney's charge as I have never paid anything for any of my immigration process so far (11 yrs in US). Technically, you are not supposed to pay anything, only employer should pick up the fee. You can pay the premium processing fee wherever applicable.
What about if the I-140(EB2) rejected?. The 485 will be rejected too?. What are the possibilities of I-140 rejection?
Thanks

Is your NC cleared? If yes, shouldn't you have received your gc in early 2007 itself before July 07 messed up EB3?
Even if its not cleared, you would have surely crossed 180-day barrier, yes?
I'm not EB3 but if you can post updates in this thread related to your case, it would satisfy some of my curiosity.
I don't know if my NC is cleared. Tried to find it couple of times calling over phone but always ran into unfriendly IO officers.
Got out of BEC in dec 2006, I140 cleared in Jan 2007 but then my PD became current only in June 2007. And due to laziness of my law firm, my I-485 filing did not happen in June and got dragged into July 07 mess.
I think if USCIS had initiated my Namecheck as per normal timeline (sometime around when my I-485 filed , i.e anywhere between July - Sep 2007), then yes, I think it crossed 180 days long time back.

I find the requirements for H/L visa at Hyderabad quite legit.
Asking employer (petitioners) last 2 years tax filing records + State Unemployment Wage Report + list of employees ensures that Petitioner really has a job offered ready and is not just a plan shop which would get head-count and hold them on zero/less pay on bench while they find a client.
Currently this is what is happening in certain cases which is considered a fraudulent use of the visa.
As a result of ramped fraud (On bench w/o assignment and not paid salary in full) the consulate is asking for all paystub and bank statements (which would show regular pay check deposits) to prove that petitioner (employer) did really pay regular salary. Otherwise, both petitioner and employee are de-frauding by not paying (employer) and not reporting (employee).
What's wrong in asking these documents?

You have already got your case approved. Then why do you mention " ... shall we all unite and file the applications ..." This is like Al Gore wasting energy in his own office and preaching to the world to reduce global warming.
I dont see any merit in your suggestion. Rather to the cynical eye, it all seems sinister.
I understand that there is lot of fear among applicants that USCIS might retrogress the dates interimly sometime in july due to the expected high volume of applications filing in the begining of july.
To minimize the chance of USCIS from taking any such steps, shall we all unite and file the applications on a specific date in july probably on 30th of july? This will accomodate all applicants...so that we shall all be winners and use this opportunity to our advantage instead of competing amongst each other...where only a few will be winners and others will be loosers.
This will also reduce the pressure among applicants , attorneys and doctors.
Can the AILA cooperate? Will there be unity amongst applicants to make this possible??? any ideas ??
