Since Senate already passed the CIR, that included the SKIL, Is it required to vote again in senate if the house somehow passes the SKIL bill?
Too early but just curious.
Thanks.
The SKIL bill was introduced in the Senate in May by Senator John
Cornyn (R-
TX) and was subsequently incorporated into the Comprehensive
Immigration Act
of 2006. We discussed its effects on the H-1B and EB categories in the
June
2006 issue of SHUSTERMAN'S IMMIGRATION UPDATE. See
http://shusterman.com/toc-siu.html
Although the legalization and guest worker provisions of the Senate
bill
have been written off by many pundits, we believe that there is an
excellent
chance that some version of the SKIL bill will be enacted into law
before the
end of 2006.

I would defenitely say that not letting H4 people to work is not only discrimination , it is also Human Rights violation....
US should stop accusing other countries of human rights violations when they have so many issues to take care off.....Just think about 20 million illegal immigrants living in dark...no health care, no rights , no driver license....
This rule "when you point a finger at someone, there are 4 fingers pointing at you..." is just for USA!
The US Immigration Law is a nightmare.
Couple of years ago, I migrated to Australia.
The Australian laws are very clean and straight forward. There is only one application form with some very simple question and detailed instructions. Just fill up the form, enclose the necessary documents and fees. That's it. You are done. In due time they will let you know "YES" or "NO".
There is no need to feed fat-belly hungry sharks called "Immigration Attorneys" (of course there are exceptions).
Once your case is approved, you and your family are eligible for the all the rights (except Vioting Power) enjoyed by any Australian Citizen.
Once accepted, there is no official discrimination.
Here the US Government cries about anti-discrimination, human rights etc, but those are only eye-wash. They should take lessons from the Australians.

I am also, stuck in this whole BEC debacle. Mine is Oct 2003 EB3 and still stuck in Labor. And the very fact that the FY 2008 quote availability is very uncertain and we might not be able to apply for I-140/485 for years now makes it even more frustrating.
I am new to this team, so please tell me what I can do anything to help this issue to be raised.

I am one of the victims here. I filed my labor on August 2002 EB2 and it is still waiting in the backlog center In-Process. I (w)hole-heartedly support for this...i guess we should send flowers to backlog centers...

Reddog: We discussed enough on this Donor and Freeluncher's. You decided not to pay. Why still keep arguing about it?
Why not you provide free lunch to your neighbor's every day? Over a period of time, those neighbor's will think it is their right to get Free lunch from you.
If you are a student and not earning, you have every right to request for free access. You claim to be Highly educated and earning and you still want free ride?
This was a smart reply.
People are so used to getting everything for free.
The starter of this thread never did anything all this while and when he has not got his greencard, he thinks he has the right to blame IV for his problems in life.

Well I filed under Rest of World" and EB2 back in August of 2006 when it was current for me (it�s always been current for me since then). I filed both my I-140 and I-485 together. I have done the fingerprinting etc and even replied to a RFE for my I-140 (well my company did). On June 1st I got my company to submit an "out of processing time" request which gives USCIS 45 days to come back with a decision or reason for not approving it. Now after all this fiasco my lawyer is telling me that my I-140 will continue as per usual (since it's not affected by all this) but my I-485 will not be approved until after October 1st. I don't agree with him, I believe part of the 60,000 visa numbers have been allocated to those that are pending and current (so they haven't been approved but have already been allocated). Does anyone agree or disagree?
Under normal scenario you have to wait until your 140 gets approved But during the past 12 days they could have approved your 140 just to approve your 485 tooo.. Keep checking your mail box every day and good luck;;;;:D :D :D

Simply amazing ...
have you guys lost the ability to think and read...
It is USCIS that decides the categories and it is they who say that EB1 is more skilled and valuable than other categories
Again ... like I said in my post .... It is NOT NOT individual's qualifications or Country that matters, it is the JOB descr they do that decides the EB category. IF USCIS places more value on EB1 than EB2/EB3 category jobs that is not my problem .... but thats the way it is... and that was my point .... if the value placed on the job is higher that job...
If things make you sick .... there is a fix for it .... go to a doctor ...
But truly... I do believe you are sick, inability to coherently digest a discussion and think is a serious anomaly and you should get it checked out...
Herez the qualifying criteria for various EB categories.
FIRST PREFERENCE Includes:
Intra-Company Transfers - Executive or Managers
Outstanding Professors and Researchers
"Extraordinary Ability" in the sciences, arts, education, Business and athletics
Note: Categories 1 & 2 do not require a labor certification7 Category 3 does not require a labor certification or offer of employment.
SECOND PREFERENCE Includes:
Professionals with advanced degrees
Aliens of "Exceptional Ability" in the sciences, arts or business
Note: both categories require an offer of employment and a labor certification unless a "National Interest Waiver" is obtained.
THIRD PREFERENCE Includes:
Professionals with bachelor's degrees
Skilled workers filing positions requiring at least two years of training and experience
other workers.
Every category includes skilled professionals.
The classification is based on education/priority/years of exp.
We all have the option to apply for a "better" category, but we choose not to because either we don't have supporting documents or our employer refused to do so.
We should stop infighting and focus on bigger issues at hand.

There are always exception in the constitution. For example for US president and Vice President only US Born citizens are eligible. In a way you can argue that is also discriminatory.
If anyone thinks country quota is violating law he can easily challenge that. Green card process is not by merrit. Labor and I140 process is not selecting best candidate. That is just checking whether the position exist and the person is eligibe for that. All of the eligible candidates will get. If no country quota then FIFO process will be applied. It is just cutting the line and not selecting best candidates. So company or country will not have any impact on who gets green card first
It seems changing country quota is difficult. But if cap for GC is increased and exempt dependents then no need to remove the country quota
If law is not consistent with constitution, Federal supreme court can revert it. it is not question of fair or unfair. The point is is it violating constitution?

similar incident happened to my room-mate, may be little worse.
The airline was aerofloat (russian) in this case.
they boarded aircraft from bombay to ewr. aircraft started running on runway and after some unsuccessful attempts they came back to terminal. with everyone's surprise, the pilot announced that there is a techincal difficulty and unable to takeoff.
Next flight was after 48 hours and that too from delhi. No need to say my friend spend 24 hours also at moscow airport and finally reached newark after 4 days finally. All these with no ground staff at bombay by aerofloat. Being young students, my friend and his groups helped like a coolie to shuttle all other elderly passengers bags to hotel and so forth. He is a very fair person and still doesn't blame aerofloat. He bought the return ticket for 760 with tax, where other airlines used to charge like 1200 or so.
morale of the story: don't blame airindia for all the faults. I am sure there is lot to improve but it is not the only airline where things go bad. This is possible anywhere.
and lastly, the OP who blamed airindia for not allowing duty free stuff bought at NJ at frankfurt - don't blame AI. It is the airport staff of FRA and not AI.
For all those who think that only airindia is bad, go to google and search for reviews of any airline. Chances are very high that you will get such horror stories described by someone.
The OP somewhere has an attitude that he is too important and shouldn't have any issues. Unfortunately the world is not perfect.
Who flies on Aerofloat?
This airlines had a pilot, who was too drunk to fly the plane. Since the pilot was too drunk, he couldn't properly announce instructions before the take off.
When passengers complained, he said that he will not touch anything in the cockpit and will simply sit there.
After all this, when passengers complained about this at the destination, the fly crew said that nothing like this happened and that all passengers are having a mass hysteria.
{this is not a joke and this actually happened - try google-ing it}

Subject: Injustice :mad: for people with priority dates in '02, '03, '04 etc. who are still waiting for their labor certs to be processed using the traditional process - we want to file a case against DOL's lethargy - Let us join together and file a case against DOL and bring justice to this unjustified system.
The manner in which the backlog reduction center have been processing the
labor certs seems to be very unfair for people like me and others who have been affected. I know of cases with priority dates as late as 2005 that have gone through the traditional process and have been approved already. And there are cases like mine and others with much earlier priority dates that haven't been done. This is very unfair and unjustified. It is like we have been standing in the queue for several hours and a person who came much later than me just sneaked into the queue and got his service done while I am still waiting for my turn. Also the fact that now the UCIS has made the filing of I-485 current adds more insult to the injury that I and others in my position have endured.
The fact that the I-485 was made current and then withdrawn was made a big deal and people wanted to file cases, whereas the plight of people like me who are still waiting for the labor cert to be cleared has been totally
ignored, inspite of the fact that people who applied for labor much later
have been approved through the traditional process.
We want to file a case ASAP with the DOL or other relevant
authority regarding this issue and the unfair way of the process that we
have been subjected to. So can all those folks who have been affected by this join and voice your support? We shoud put up this fight because this is in no way justified. Why would it be?
The next steps should be:
- Get all of the support we need from all affected folks ASAP
- Get in touch with a lawyer who can help us to prepare the case
- File the case in a court against DOL
- Make sure we get justice
Please join and show your support. Please help!!!

joining the club...
my I-485 was nicely pending @ TSC, and the company just sent H1 papers off to VSC for processing, so I can come back on H1. I am currently sitting in London (working for my GC employer from their UK office), when I got the Card Production E-mail. My previous H1 approval expired in March.
My EAD will expire next month, as well as AP. So, here is the rub, they will not let me come back to US on AP since system shows GC approved, H1 will be rejected since GC is approved.
needless to say PD is not current. I kind of remember having an approved RIR Labor with PD June 2004, but I dont remember having sent for I-140...No idea what to do and how to check that.
Dont trust company's lawyer, and I sent all I-485 papers by myself back in July 2007. I have an attorney that I bug from time to time but he is on vacation now...
So... am I completely screwed...?
My employer transfered me from US to UK couple of months ago, now they are transfering me back. I did go for H1 stamping in Dec here in London and IO said something like, my GC is taking too long, he will check why I dont already have it..
Just venting here, no clue whom to talk to next....
Any suggestions are welcome...

Thank you for contacting me about my views on the current immigration proposals being considered by Congress.
I have long supported legislation to curb illegal immigration by increasing criminal penalties for immigrant smuggling and document fraud, eliminating the use of government documents that are easily forged, and doubling the number of border patrol guards. Better enforcement and tougher penalties for both undocumented immigrants and their lawbreaking employers are the way to fight unauthorized employment, and employment opportunities are what drive illegal immigration.
Unless we fix the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA) and enforce our own labor laws, we will continue to debate how high the fence should be and how many agents should guard our border � with no real solution in sight. In 1994, the U.S. signed NAFTA, which promised, among other things, to help create a thriving middle class in Mexico. At that time there were 3 million undocumented workers in the U.S.; today there are more than 11 million. In Mexico, 9 million more live in poverty than when NAFTA was enacted. NAFTA has failed the U.S. and Mexico. By creating an atmosphere where Mexican citizens feel they have no chance of a successful life in Mexico, these ill-conceived trade agreements increase the number of illegal immigrants coming into our country.
In addition to addressing the forces that are compelling illegal immigration, we must take action to bring illegal immigrants out of the shadows. While I do not support amnesty and have serious concerns about guest worker programs, I do believe our nation should consider establishing a process by which illegal immigrants can eventually earn citizenship. The solution to our immigration problem will not be a simple one, as many things in our country need to be fixed to stop illegal immigration. It is time to take a common sense approach to immigration reform.
The Senate most recently considered immigration when S.1639 was introduced in the 110th Congress. On June 28, 2007, the Senate rejected a cloture motion to proceed to final passage of S.1639 by a vote of 46 yeas to 53 nays. I was deeply concerned about the guest worker provisions in this bill, and voted against proceeding to a final vote. Should these issues come again before the Senate in the 111th Congress, I will be sure to keep your views in mind. Thank you again for contacting me.
Sincerely,
Sherrod Brown

You can sign on on behalf of your son and you can place (father/mother) next to it.. This won't need a G28 form.
I am preparing I131 (AP) renewal application for me and my family. For my son, who is 8 years old, do I need to fill "Part 9. Signature of Person preparing the form, if other than the applicant" since I am preparing this form? OR can I just sign Part 8 on-behalf of my son?
G-28 form says it needs to be filled in case if you use Attorney or Representative. Just wondering whether I need to fill a G-28 form for the above AP renewal application for my son since I am filling Part 9 in his application.
Can somebody clarify? Thanks for your help.

You do not need to have an SSN in 2008, since you can apply for the stithmulus payment in 2009 if you did not get it in 2008. This rule is posted on the IRS website.
The IRS webpage is saying something different. It makes it clear that you need the
SSN in 2008. (Second and last question on
http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/0,,id=181995,00.html)
Please do not refer to the stimulus payment as a rebate in any communications you have. It is not a rebate, which implies the return of money paid. Many people who earn no taxable income can apply for the stimulus payment. This makes it different from any tax scheme. The fact that the IRS administers the program does not prove that it is a tax program.
This is what I did. But the argument is not strong. The same applies to the
additional child tax credit. I got more money back then I paid, i.e., I had to
pay a negative amount of federal tax :-) (So this country is so mad that it
gives me an H1-visa for working and in addition pays me some money
for staying here.)
Anyhow, the IRS seems to offer a solution now:
Q. If I have a spouse with an ITIN and therefore choose "married filing separately"
status to qualify for the economic stimulus payment and later on amend my
original return to "married filing jointly" status, will I need to return the
stimulus payment?
A. No. [New 4/14/08]
Unfortunately, I filed already in January before there was a stimulus law.
Should I amend my 2007 return now, then file my 2008 return, and then amend
my 2007 return again??? As reason I give to circumvent a stupid law.

my friend.. thanx for your kind words
u and ur non-retrogressed friend have my support for an expedited process since u got US advanced degree that make u better suited for this market.. u should be talking STEM.. i am talking about the disparity in available opportunities to come here back in our homelands. Individual examples aside, I trust statistics, you'll find that each year a handful of giant offshoring companies grab more than half the H1 quota.. is it my streotyping imagination that infosys, wipro and satyam don't hold job fairs in Romania and they only make these opportunities available in retrogressed countries?
Hello! Infosys, Wipro and all those companies are NOT the main sponsors of green cards, which is the reason we're in this forum, no? Most of the sponsors are US based small and medium sized companies.
I don't care how many visas they get, the fact is that it doesn't affect me! I neither have a job with them nor I benefited from them grabbing a bulk of visas. End of the day I'm held back because of where I was born.
Look, this may be hard for you to understand, but just because those companies are in my country didn't and doesn't help me one iota. Everyone's on their own here.
Thanks for understanding that I have an advanced degree.
and don't give me the condescending excuse that if these companies only hire in retrogressed companies then talented, educated people must only exist in the retrogressed countries.
Anyway, i had this discussion many times here .. radical issue where people hardly change their minds..
peace..
That is ridiculous. I never said that nor I will. The reason is because those companies MORE people exist in those countries, and THEY'RE CHEAPER and poorer, that's something I do expect you to understand.
Did stereotyping help you in your discussions earlier?
