Even illigal immigrants has more optimism,
And they actually believe themselves they have every right to become a permanant citizens than legal immigrants waiting in line.
Some folks can't even bear the thought if some one thinks they should try to influence the law makers.

Hi, I am currently on H4 visa in US and I have filed my H1B visa in the opened cap this year in April 2007. But I am planning to go back to India this month end. Would like to know if I leave the country my H1B process will get affected?
Thanks,

BharatPremi,
Can you guesstimate how long it would take for EB3/India, Mar 2005 (Pre-PERM), Consular Processing to get GC?
Appreciate your time.
Short answer is "NO".Assuming direct filing in consular Process, in general it takes less time (for most clear cases around 6 months to 9 months) with comparison to AOS. But that pattern was of old times. Consular processing also has to follow Visa Bulletin. Second factor also need to be considered is what ratio is for consular processing. If 10 % of total EB3 + 2 cases might have gone to consular processing then again those US visa offcies will also be overwhelmed. Seeing July-August load ,this time it is very hard to predict consular processing. But just sake for the argument if my prediction for future visa bulletin will become correct then MOST EB3 - 2003/4-consular processing filers will definately get their GC before December 2008. That surely can not be predicted for AOS seeing namecheck etc.
Note: After some time (2008 end) you will also see fence jumpers (AOS to
consular)as people will hear fast "initial" approvals from consular
processing.

And your point is ???????????????
This is how it works....
2011 - EB2 gets current
2012 - EB2 retrogrades because all indians start applying in EB2.
2019 - EB2 current
2020 - EB2 retrogrades again
In the mean time .......
2025 - 50 k EB3 Indians are appying for EAD and AP for the 20th time and hoping that they do not get harrased at the POE while coming back

Good Luck on your approval. I think you are Man(strong guess) in a hurry.
I did not mean to make fun out of you. what I meant was that you and your spouse. I guess it did not come out that way. Sorry about that.
Thanks for the details.

You are right. But many people came here at the middle of their carrier and they are struck here with their children education etc., They are bound to be here and there is no way. Further, in my country, there are still reservation policies in everything, which may prevent the kids in going in for the education line they like. I donot want to explain this more as I may be degrading my own mother country. In a nutshell, everyone who wish to be a citizen of this country will have lot of valid reasons for getting a citizenship in this country.
isn't the effect of reservation the same as the effect of affirmative action?
If your kid gets high scores in SAT but does not get into an ivy league college because your ethnicity is over-represented - but some other kid with much lower scores gets in (and its not a hypothetical scenario - happens every admission season and i sincerely hope does not happen to your loved ones).....where does that leave your logic??
i see your point that people do have their own reasons for desiring US citizenships - but sometimes its also important to take a step back and see what one is giving up!

Guys,
We need your time, your enthusiasm on the advocacy days. IV is a grass roots organization. You are the grass roots.
We face problems of backlogs, and career uncertainty. IV is offering a solution, if implemented, it will bring relief to all. IV needs your help to deliver what you and I "NEED" AND "WANT".
HELP IV HELP YOU.
We need heavy participation on the lobby days, I need volunteers from different states to ask me "How can I help?" instead, I am trying to find volunteers! I have been able to persuade members who have received GCs to help out, but getting members who are still in the mess are either unaware of the advocacy days (in spite of the thread running on the home page for the past month) or are not ready to talk to the employers to take the two days off. Capitol Hill runs on weekdays and therefore it is necessary for you to take the time off.
Come on guys, you can do better than this. Donors, members, guests - we are all in this together!

two reasons
one, to vote, exercise a democratic principle, you can't complain about the government unless you actively participated.
two, I have 3 kids, and it's likely they'll stay here, my 12 year olds were 3 when we first arrived. My lawyer highly recommended we consider citizenship after another client had challenges. Despite good parenting this guy's kids got into trouble with the law, to the extent that they had their green cards revoked and they were in deportation process. However had they been US citizens whilst there were consequences they wouldn't have their citizenship revoked.
Not great reasons for some...
Q 1: What if one's native country is also a democracy?
Q 2: If one is already a citizen of democratic country other than US and same scenario will happen then one's kids will not have revoked citizenship (That other country's) as well if one decides to maintain his/her original citizenship ...

Rep.Darell Issa (NY) has introduced a bill to end the Diversity Lottery program and give the 55k visas to EB applicants with advanced US Degrees. This is a pretty exciting development (at least to me).
I think this is a great starting point that we should all jump on to clear EB backlogs.

Hi All,
Regarding my I-485 appln. status - I do remember seeing "Request for Evidence" status before. Currently I see "Request for Evidence Response Review". I see this status change although there are no LUDs.
Throw in your input Gurus !
Thanks
same with my online status. we responsed to RFE in July 2009 and status showed RFE for the last one year. Recently (about a week back) a 'new' status field RFE review has been added and my application is in that status. Not sure if it means anything.

It is so sad that H1Bs are exploited by those "consulting" companies (which essentially are "human trafficing companies" like doing "slave trade") while Americans (at least some Americans) hate H1Bs. We are like modern "slaves" that nobody cares about. :rolleyes:

I met pappu for the first time at the reception registration, and someone had to point out to me that it was him heeeee. Honored to meet you!
pdakwala, you are the best, you were the one who called me and tried to get AA to waive the change fees for me, and I had really looked forward to meeting you. It is plainly evident that you guys really care about your members.
Paskal, I had seen your picture before, so I knew it was you. You made us walk all the way back to the starting point by which time all the cleanup was already done!
MACACA IS REALLY MY CHACHA NOW :) I couldn't stop shouting MACACA randomly. I think I even shouted PAPPU out of dhiren's car.
Aman, I couldn't believe how everyone was approaching him for all the pettiest of things (including myself) and he always obliged.
LogicLife is too proud.. he didn't take the rose I offered him during the rally. I don't want to have anything to do with him now!!

MY PD is also July 26 2007.
I live in Texas as well.
My case is filed in Chicago based on my employer state which is MO.
If your employer is in Texas your case would have been filed in Chicago.
It is taking longer than 2 months to get approvals.
Hopefully we will get approved soon and get the hard copy before August 17th to file the I-140 and I-485 together.
Good Luck

I definately finish all the events I participate in. This is the first time I am going to be raising funds for a cause I support and this is the first time I registered as a member of a Team for the entire year. I have supported some friends raise funds for the causes they support but never did one myself.
I have never run before............not even a mile. I still cannot and have just started training for the DC 10 miler. So please do not feel shy about running even if this is your first time. We are willing to answer any questions that you might have...........but please signup; set a target and start ASAP. Worst case you will end up walking instead of running.
