As I mentioned, "many" and not "all", I stand by my statement. Those paying taxes ( using fake SSNs) are in high-paying jobs like construction. How many of those waiting eagerly waiting for a job outside HomeDepot, you think, pay roll taxes? Not to mention low-paying jobs like fruit-pickers, cash workers in restaurants etc.
In a nutshell - there are those who do pay taxes. There are also a good number of those who don't

More letters = More strength for IV !
But of course....I should have been more specific with my question. I see that we are not even 20% near the target so the question is .... does IV still go with the campaigne? or do they increase deadline and try to get more letters?

I guess it's not about service. It's about job professionalism. There is no problem with Air Hostess or employees, but it is management. Let me give snap shot of my exp.
My flight was from Bangalore --> Bombay --> USA
Flight took off at Bangalore 60 mins late. Staff reassured that flight in Bombay will be waiting
Once we reached Bombay they took boarding passes and tore them off. They said your flight already left, you have to go next day. Some passengers noticed that few passengers are still boarded into US flight with flight nbr given in our boarding passes. When everyone made an issue about this they said, it's overbooked so we can not accommodate.
So their statement that flight took off was literal lie which is unprofessional. Also they deliberately delayed Bangalore flight which also they did not manage nicely
Then they said go to Delhi there is a flight. We reached delhi there is no flight. There AI staff said not sure why they sent you here. Only option is next flight starts tomorrow. Next day they listed the flight but again they say it's cancelled due to technical difficulties and part has to come from other country and you can fly only tomorrow.
By that time there were passengers of 2 days waiting. when every one made a big noise, they arranged a flight after 4 hours.
They should have made alternate arrangements before all this mess and 2 days of waiting. Consider people with infants.
I understand unfortunate things happen but deliberate lies due to mismanagement and moving you around just to buy time is completely unprofessional. I did not find this kind of unprofessionalism in other airlines, even though there are other bad experiences with them also.
There will be millions and millions of experience like or worse than this brother so dont worry. Next time while flying make a point to put on your worst attire and treat the trip (flight) as if you are going to a barber shop or meat market. Dont expect courteous behaviour and neither be courteous. In airports havn't you seen people dressing up as if they are going to present at an international seminar and also behaving as if they are meeting with the president?? That needs to change. That is a place full of desperate employees serving a bankrupt industry and so be prepared to experience the fallout of their economic woes. Yes I agree they (airlines) had a good time but it was a long time back. Concord is gone and so are all the goodies that come with flying. Long time back most of us used to get thrilled when the flying date gets near, right?? Now not even a retard looks forward for flying. Flying is the last option and only done when absolutely necessary. Everybody, almost every single person who ever flew had some kind of bad experience so what is the probability that you will also get it......100%

Personally I think there are no more than 8000 applications left. How I arrived at this number..
Total EB1+EB2 visas = 80,000
Per Quarter allocation= 20,000
Discount factor for dependants = 2.5
Application Left = 20,000/2.5 = 8,000
So the question is how many application are left before Jun'06?

Could not agree more. We are masters of everything related to caste, quotas and discrimination and we need to fix our own house before complaining about other countries, airlines etc.
So until your house is fixed you will not complain against any injustice meted to you by others?

Any updates on Denaial notice?
Please post or PM me . I m waiting to hear from my attorney.
You are runnig out of time it seems, last week itself you said it is around 14 days.
Ram
My attorney called them and requested the copy of Denial notice as well as asked them for faxing it.
Still not received anything.
Not sure what to do except waiting.
Irony is that all notice reaches on time except denial notice. Seems like they are trying to eliminate backlog by doing some tricks

I didn't attended because recently I had a new boss and he was monitoring my daily schedule and being in H1b and coming so close to filing I-485, I was just waiting for my EAD or I-485 cheques to get encashed. On 21st Sep, they got encashed. Now I am bold enough to take a day or two as vacation and attend rally if organized in eastern part.
I did paid 50% travel cost to one of our member from CA.
Sorry for not attending this time, will do it next time.
Another perfectly valid reason - thank you for helping someone go in your place :)
I can guarantee first hand - those CA to DC flights aren't cheap

Let me reiterate that I am all for H4s being able to work and you guys should try unite for this cause.
I haven't researched L1 quota and its intent so I really can't comment further with respect to that.
Its unfortunate that legals and illegals are measured on different scales and it would be very unfair if they end up getting more benefits than us legals. I am not sure what you mean by illegal spouses? Either one is illegal or one is not.
I wish you the best in your search and would highly recommend exploring the unpaid internship possibilites in the interim.

I've been reading some great human interest stories in various threads here on ImmigrationVoice.org. I know that there was some interest earlier in creating short videos on people who've been waiting forever for their green cards. Why not channelize this into a single place where we can gather these stories in a more compelling format?
Here's an idea that I've been toying with for sometime. If we can take all these stories from all over the country and instead of using words to describe them, use small videos (60 - 90s) or a narrated slideshow to tell these stories and have them available via a single website. We would use YouTube to actually hold the video. We could have it sliced by region/state/city. We could have a running counter to show the average number of years people registered on the site have been wating for their green card. That could be a great place to refer to the media to portray that there are some really great people out there with a compelling reason to live in this country but the green card process is a big stumbling block.
The most important part is that the stories need to be positive, not sob stories. They should bristle with energy, to convey to the people and media at large that by wasting the energy of all these people in green card process, the US is essentially not able to channelize this for more productive use. If people are interested then please email me at vikas.chowdhry@gmail.com and if there is sufficient positive response then I can get the ball rolling.

If you do some more research before writing you will realize that H1C are limited to 500 visas a year and the conditions for selecting the hospitals allowed to sponsor is so stringent only 14 hospitals or so in all US qualify. Here is some more info.
http://shusterman.com/h1cfaq.html
Also here is a list of 14 hospitals in all of US who qualify. There is not even 1 hospital that qualifies in majority of states.

Hi,
Many posts on this thread suggest that there is no H1B type visa for nurses and so they have to come on only greencard; and that is why Health lobby is trying hard to GRAB 90K unused visas (note: I consider this as a grab because from skill/CIR bills; we are trying to recapture unused visas and make them available to ALL EB immigrants rather than allocating them to one special group). But according to this news item on immigration-law there seems a non-immigrant visa H1C available for nurses. Is this true? am I misreading this?
==========news item follows==================
02/13/2007: DOL Announcement of Processing of H-1C Labor Attestations
The Nursing Relief for Disadvantaged Areas Reauthorization Act of 2005 took effect December 20, 2006. The Act reauthorized the H-1C nonimmigrant nurses program, a program originally created by the Nursing Relief for Disadvantaged Areas Act of 1999. Under this program, eligible hospitals file attestations with the Department of Labor, Office of Foreign Labor Certification which, if approved, will support nonimmigrant worker petitions filed with the Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. The Department of Health and Human Services has informed the Office of Foreign Labor Certification that the same hospitals eligible for the original program continue to be eligible. These were listed in the Department of Labor's Interim Final Rule implementing its portion of the H-1C program published on August 22, 2000 (65 Fed. Reg. 51138). The Employment and Training Administration, under the authority of the new public law, is reinstating the H-1C labor attestation program and is accepting applications by qualified hospitals. Eligible hospitals should be advised that the now-expired OFLC form (ETA 9081), Attestations by Facilities Temporarily Employing H-1C Nonimmigrant Aliens as Registered Nurses, has not been authorized by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for current use. However, the OFLC will accept applications using the expired form until a new form is approved by the OMB. The attestations are made enforceable by the 2005 Act. ETA is in the process of revising the form under the OMB clearance process, and taking other appropriate regulatory action. Once approved by OMB, employers will be required to use only the new form.

My experince in porting EB3 to EB2.
One of my friend labor was applied in Eb3 since he was not eligible for eb2 in 2002. His labor and I-140 was cleared in 2006 and waiting to apply I-485.
Meanwhile he got promotion in same company. So he applied for EB2 labor.
(If 50% of job duties change you can claim experience gained in that company.)
He applied another labor in Eb2.
Eb2 labor cleared from same company.
I-140 cleared (ported old priority date.)
Applied I-485 in early 2007.
He got GC by end of 2007.
My case was also similar.
My labor was applied in 2002 in Eb3 since i was not eligible for eb2 in 2002.
Labor and I-140 cleared in 2006.
Got promotion in same company. I asked my company to apply labor in EB2 and port PD. They agreed to pay potion of the cost.
My Eb2 labor approved in 2007 (perm)
I-140 approved but Texas service enter screwed my case they did not ported by old priority date. I-140 approved with PD date 2007.
My attorney requested USCIS to port PD but no luck till now.
I spent 7000$ for this.
Bottom line is Porting of PD from Eb3 to Eb2 worked for some people only.

What is good about it. How will this decrease our current backlogs. This is an amendment to change the merit based system, not solve the current backlog problem.
We cannot judge at this point in time what the final bill is going to be like.
If the merit based system after passage of the bill seem more lucrative then many will re apply under this system and we come back to square one - i.e backlogs
We have to get out of the current problem which will solve a lot of problems.
I hope this amendment will pass as it was proposed by important senators like, Chairman of Judiciary committee Mr Leahy, Mr Cornyn, Mr Hatch. This alters the equation completely. If it passes, the total EB & Merit based visas are 387,000. The total EB visas as per old system will be 230K.
Merit based system: 247K (147 for newly created point based +90 K to clear backlogs)
Employer Sponsored System (as per amendment) = 140K
Therefore 230K is available as per old EB system. Apart from that, most of the EB1 and EB2 guys and the dependents of EB visa holders will be exempted from numerical limitations. This is the proposal we should support.
