Congratulations. This is great news.
But what is happening on the Ombudsman front? Why they deviated from the guidelines? Is this trend continuing or going to continue?

Are you guys going to set up Web Fax to send support letters to our senators / congressmen? I mean how close are we to the point where this bill is up for debate?
Thanks. It has now been added on the homepage.

May I ask where you got the 90K number from? I saw "12K unused last year" floating around.
Please don't shoot me for these thoughts, but please consider it only for sake of discussion.
Now that CIR is defeated again for nth time, We really need to consider rethinking about our stratergy,
I guess we are about 15K membership and if we include spouse and take a guess every one in five has dependent kid to join (wild gusstimate) we come close 35-40K approximately.
most of us are legal and we should not having any issue in getting Green card with current law only if backlog is cleared and we recapture visa numbers.
to recapture visa numbers we don't need any legislative reform AC-21 does apply,
We need to spend more energy in researching possibility of recapturing 90K visas and we will be done,
I really don't think we have strength and will power to fight legislation change along with illegals for most controversial subject.
we are legals letz use it our advantage.
I did belive in piggy back ride along with illegals, but I don't any more,

There is a site called http://www.hvisasurvey.org which conducts surveys about the lives of poeple on different H Visas. They were lobbying for H4 work authorization and protection under VAWA for non-immigrant woman.
I have a suggestion. Why not ImmigrationVoice Join with HVisaSurvey and Lobby for more rights for H4 Visa Holders.
At least the H4 should be allowed to work if the labor certification is pending or the I-140 is approved for the H1 visa holder. Waiting for I-485 to become current is a long wait. Why nobody care about H4s. L2's got work permit because the big multinational companies who used a lot of L1 visas lobbied for it.

I totally get where you're coming from - I was in the same place also some time back. And I absolutely support dissenting voices - every organization needs a conscience. IV is no exception. So go ahead with your questions and ignore the folks trying to shut you up.
Heres why I contribute to IV -
IMHO the biggest role IV is playing right now is educating the media, politicians, administrators etc. about the hardships we're going through. The first step towards solving a problem is to get people to acknowledge there is one. And right now there are people in the administration who don't think or even know there is a problem.
Mark Bartosik's done some great work with the media. Nixtor has also been prominent here. I'm sure there are others also involved.
Mark on Radio (http://lmgtfy.com/?q=site%3Aimmigrationvoice.org+%22mark+bartosik%22 +radio)
similarly search for nixtor, pappu etc.
As for the monetary aspect - if we're sitting here typing and other folks are using their weekends/ days off work to get somewhere to make a difference to our fight, I'd see the easiest way of pitching in with money - for printing a glossy flier, or, maybe the cost of an air ticket, or lunch or whatever.
If some part of the contributions make life easier for these folks - its absolutely worth it, isn't it?
And for folks who refer to this as "Donation"
Its not a donation - its a contribution.
Donation refers to a gift to a charitable organization whereas a ontribution is generally associated with a gift to a common fund or collection.
I hope this helps you somewhat to get over the hurdle of moving from a member to a contributor.
As for "donor" forums - think of them as a paid subscription (like shareware ;)). Its also one way of ensuring that anti-immigrant trolls don't get through. I do totally support this model.
I know this is probably asking for trouble but no movement can be credible without listening to the dissenting voices. So here is my gripe ... You cannot open a single thread or forum without being asked for contributions these days. People are told that if they dont contribute, they are not "supporting the cause".
But the stark reality is this... If you look at the IV website to see what action/progress has been made in "the cause"....there is some vague statement about Patton Boggs and how we have this lobbyist who is educating congressmen...Who exactly? How? When? Oh those details cannot be given.
There is a link about IV in the news...the last time IV was in the news was in Sept 2007 ...19 MONTHS AGO...
Then there is a link about IV and FBI namechecks...The last update is some thread in Feb 08 and this brilliant statement from 2007 ..."IV has met officials from agencies and has raised this issue in the recent past. We have been informed that there is an effort being undertaken to significantly reduce name check backlogs in the next 6 months." SERIOUSLY?? You really expect that you can convince people to contribute based on this flimsy evidence of doing "something" that you really cant tell us ??
For those asking for money, THERE HAS NOT BEEN A SINGLE UPDATE ON ANY PROGRESS SPECIFICALLY ACHIEVED BY IV IN THE LAST YEAR AND HALF !!!
How can you justify this? Actually, you dont have to....There are many like me who will answer questions of panicked people about how to navigate the complex immigration system but until IV can provide some concrete proof of what specifically it is doing, how exactly it is spending the money and what roadmap of progress it hopes to achieve and whether it is on its way to achieving it....the money wells will continue to be dry.
And this new caste system of the DONOR forum which basically says screw you to everyone who has spent time, money or effort on IV and completely goes against the "Change for fairness and Justice" mumbo jumbo is a step in the right direction, IV needs to give way to an actual movement that actually does something and this DONOR forum concept will certainly go a long way in the marginalization of this site and community.

Sc3 and other friends. Here is what has triggered this bad blood on the forum
Apr VB EB2 is U and EB3 is doing well every one is normal exactly like every other VB no surge of threads and replies everything is normal
July VB Eb2 is in Apr 2004 and Eb3 is in U again every thing is normal
Aug VB Now suddenly Eb2 is 2006 and Eb3 is U ( no change) and all of a sudden there is a flood of e-mails complaining injustice against EB3. I think the timing of when Eb3 folks realized injuistice is what ticked off many.
I am not saying every one shares this feeling but just the sheer volumes of posting on this thread speaks for itself. I am sure many do not agree with me (or least pretent not to agree) Any one can query Eb3 injuistice posting before Aug VB and compare it since this bulletin was posted and see the data speaks for itself we do not need any body to prove anything
In fact looking at statistics posted by sachug22 here (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showpost.php?p=265004&postcount=20), it looks like it is EB2 that got shafted all along and finally DOS/USCIS realized their folly and tried to correct the spillover rule starting this april (as explained in July'08 bulletin). This re-interpretation does not affect EB3-I negatively. I do not know why so many are getting riled up over EB2 progress.

For all those who don't believe in IV - First, thanks for giving me all those reds :) I guess that is the best you can do anyway besides complaining about IV. Second, if I understand it correctly you want to be associated with IV but on your terms. Every organization has a goal and it's own way of doing things. Take for example the companies you work for. There are lots of things that we don't like about our companies; do you go complaining about those to your board of directors?
Transparency? The only transparency I have and I need is that IV is the ONLY organization looking out for the highly skilled community.
The solution to this is simple like I said before - If you don't agree with IV's way of doing things, what is the need to come here and corrupt the minds of those who believe in IV. Please take it somewhere else. We promise we will not miss your business!

Hi
though most part of Sch-A is doctors and Nurses it also covers under its Categorey II EXCEPTIONAL ABILITY PROFESSIONALS in ARTS AND SCIENCES. So some of the PhDs, Scientists and academics are also covered under Sch-A.
I think to oppose Sch-A s effort or H-1 B is counter productive to the IV's goal as both of these categorey include wide ranging support from Health as well as Tech Industry. More over Labor Department have already accepted by giving BALANKET APPROVAL TO SCH-A that THEY ARE THE SHORTAGE OCCUPATIONS. so there is established precedent for that.
We should focus more on PACE, SKILL or OTHER education or energy bills and try to accomodate over concerns and points in those rather than focusing on CIR, which is most likely to be in discussions only till PRESIDENT for 2009 take over his tenure. No body wants to touch it, they just want to get hispanic votes so will tell that they want to do this but will not do it as it takes away several moderate conservative votes.
Due to involvement of US EDUCATED WORKFORCE as well as BACKING from ACADEMIC, TECH and OTHER lobies SKIL is more favorable option compare to CIR.

Hi folks,
Here's my situation:
Currently applied for 485 and waiting for receipt
Will be applying for EAD/AP this week.
I am working Company XYZ, in State A, City A currently and will be transferring to State B, City B within the same company, with the same job designation/description etc., absolutely no changes on that front and virtually no change in salary but in compliance with prevailing wage etc. for State B, City B.
Also the transfer is not going to affect my 485 because of my 140 which said "relocation within the US may be necessary" and this was expected when I started my GC.
The issue is with a technicality - my PERM was for XYZ, Inc and the same company in State B is called XYZ Engineering Inc, technically 2 different companies and that's because every state has its own rules as to how a national company can be registered/operated.
Coming to my question re H1B:
My corporate attorney says that due to this technicality, my H1B needs to be AMENDED which according to my GC attorney is the same as applying for a new H1B but not having to wait in line. My question is whether this will have a negative impact on my pending 485/EAD/AP in any way.
Please advice. Anything will help.
Thanks in advance.
