Consider sending mail on the following lines to Senators and whoever that matters :
I am very glad to know that you are going to introduce a bill to help retain American Tecohnology Competitiveness termed as SKIL BILL. In regards to that I would request you to kindly consider adding to this bill a provision of awarding Green Card to skilled workers who have been in this country for six years legally and continuosly? There is something similar to this in UK immigration laws and this provision will automatically reduce the plight of the "silent minority" who have to wait for years for their Green Card approval and not able to change jobs etc. For senior professionals with many years of experience this is a very frustrating experience and since the whole process drags on for years many of them are forced to leave this country because they cannot take long term investment decisions when the future is always so uncertain.
Having a provision of automatically awarding Green Cards to H1B visa holders who have been here for more than 6 years and have applied for a Green Card will have the following positive results: - Lower the workload for the Immigration Services and streamline the process. The fact that someone has been here for 6 years legally and paid their taxes should entitle them for a "express checkout".
- Give a boost to economy (housing etc) as the professionals with Green Card can make investment decisions.
- Will not displace American Workers as the Green Card is awarded to professionals who are allready here and working for last 6 years or more.
- Most importantly it will retain American competitiveness by retaining the experienced professionals who will otherwise go back because of the very long wait for their Green Card approval.

A ton of EB3 cases with early priority dates came out of the BECs in 2006. Plus the end of labor substitution acted as a trigger for people to use these priority dates. I know my company systematically went through and substituted newer filers so they could get these older priority dates.
Also, although a lot of people are moving from EB3->EB2, USCIS needs to process the new I-140 and recapture the priority date for them to get an accurate picture of the EB3/EB2 queue. There is a largish I140 backlog today.

H1b Transfer from IT to Marketing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello All,
First THANKS to all for the fantastic information and help on this forum !
I have a H1 B based on IT ( Software Engineer).
I have already completed 6 years in the US, but I have three year extension till 2010 based on my labour pending for over 1 year.
I am not very keen about Green Card - But I wanted to change my job to Marketing for an insurance company (better pay and it is a role I like).
My questions are :
1) Can I transfer my H1 to do Markeing for the insurance company ( the job profiles are going to be different as my current job is in software) ?
2) Since I am on a three year extension based on my current Labor will it be an issue to transfer to the new company ? ( The new company is willing to transfer but is not willing to file a new H1).
Your advice is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Waitforgc123

Core IV,
How does the House version of SKIL compare blow by blow with the senate provisions for EB in CIR. Does House version of SKIL include recapture of unused visas as well as a raise which was part of the CIR. Compete America report only talks about excluding spouse and depenedents in the House SKIL version for EB visa numbers
If you have some analysis can you please post. Thank You !
Very good news indeed.
In the US politics for some reason, certain issues seem to get clubbed together.
Sometimes it suits our purposes and at other times it is vexing. Clearly our issue of legal immigration does not create the type of backlash from conservative republicans that the issue of illegal immigration does. Hence when our circumstances necessitate that we have to try to board the CIR train to our goals I consider it unfortunate.
On the other hand when it comes to H1b immigration, every H1b increase has corresponded with some sort of provision(mainly recapture) of EB visas also. H1b increase has tremendous support and pressure from the powerful capitalist forces in this country. Just see how the Wall street Journal and Pres.Bush gives publicity to this issue. I doubt pure EB provisions can get that sort of visibility in spite of the tremendous work of organisations like IV.
In that sense the H1b cap being exhausted indirectly gives our issue more visibility and is a good development. Lets wait until the 20K US masters cap is also filled, then publicity will increase even more.
All in all it looks good that something will work for us by the end of this year. The pressure is building on congress to do something about EB immigration.

Right now the anti immigration folks are not even ready to raise H1 quota by 10K . Imagine if some one asked them to allow H4 visa holders to work that is straight 100K - 300K more people in market plus least 40K added every year. How much ever I like or support your feelings its next to impossible to get any one to support this. I guess most H4 are already aware that they will not be able to work in USA. They can use the time creatively to get higher education or apply for H1.
Why doesnt US govt allow H4 Visa holders to work like Australian Govt does??????
Rather than crying for shortage of Manpower they should utilize the talent already present in the country. Has someone every raised this issue with the senate? I dont think so....and I think there is no forum also to take it up.
This is a pure case of discrimination.
Please think and contrubute.
Regards,
:)

H1B visa is meant to be for people with skills that are in shortage in the US. If any H4 feels that he/she should be able to work, he/she should get a H1B. I agree that it may be difficult for some H4s to find a sponsorer for H1B, because their skills are not in shortage in the US.
Some spouses may join their H1B counterparts in the US, with an expectation that they will eventually get the GC and will be able to work, no matter what their skill set is. This is a reasonable expectation. So, blame the retrogression.
I do not believe that H4s should ever be allowed to work. They just take away jobs of more skilled workers who are unable to get H1Bs and who are still in their home countries trying for one. Skill-less free riders!
Now, please don't bash me with counter arguments!! ;)

Yep it is risky. But it might bring out all the other risks that I took with my current I485 application, which is what I am worried about. Did'nt work for a year and went to school full time working part-time with EAD, worked with 1099 for a year and a half and changed 4 jobs after getting my 140 approved.

Dear friends,
Let us not fight -EB2 Vs EB3. I hope people (EB 2) are honest and do not try to cross the line. This is cheating. It is a Sin. Every one has to answer God .
I sincerely request IV to make efforts to push for Schedule A which will benefit all and not to support only EB2. It is everyone contributing irrespective of EB2 or EB 3 for lobbying for schedule A.

Thanks to IV core for initiating this effort.
