Everyone show attitude towards desi. Travel London, Frankfort, Amsterdam, Paris, Zurich, Dubai, Baharain anywhere so I prefer nonstop. I can live with lazy airhosteses in Air India or Continental over seperzelous security in Europe or Middle East.
my opinion:
AI : I love my india , but will not fly AI , because I dont want to take chances with once a year vacation I get.
BA : They are prompt service folks , but I cant tolerate their attitude.
Luftansa: Again good, but cant take the attitude.
cathay/singapore/korean/Arab emirates: Nice , can bet my time and money for my travel on them
Others : I dont really care.

My I-140 was filed on July 6 and arrives at USCIS on July 9.
The check was cashed on July 12 and I was able to get the receipt number. BUT BY NOW I HAVE NOT RECEIVE THE RECEIPT. It seems many people are in the same boat. What we can do about it?
Anybody knows how many days it would take between they cash the check and mail out the receipt? What address do they use?
Did u get the receipt number on the back of the cheque or did u call USCIS and get it ???

is it mean Canadian door's are closed for people who employed in IT field and do non-managerial job?
Is there any other alternative option to apply Canadian PR after exclusion of occupation category from federal and province Skilled worker category?
I don't want to conclude that doors are closed. Always one can find a way. Third eye always works better so I am pasting the links that I browsed through.
Federal skilled worker - Who can apply:
Instructions on which skilled worker applications are eligible for processing (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-who-instructions.asp#list)
AINP - Who can apply:
Alberta, Canada - Immigration : Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP) (http://www.albertacanada.com/immigration/immigrate/ainp.html)
Alberta, Canada - Immigration : US visa holder category (http://www.albertacanada.com/immigration/immigrate/srsvisaholder.html)
http://www.albertacanada.com/immigration/media/h1b_AINP_Occupations_Under_Pressure_List.pdf
In federal skilled worker link they state
"In order for your application to be eligible for processing, you must either:
- have an offer of arranged employment, OR
- be a foreign national living legally in Canada for one year as a temporary foreign worker or an international student, OR
- be a skilled worker who has at least one year of experience in one or more of the following occupations:"
As per their above statement if you have a job offer you can still apply for PR.
Hope this gives you some idea.

Last few lines of this artice is clear about Senate mood. Even IV wants to lobby sepeately for gc numbers IV has to come up with reasonable numbers based on requirement. Arbitary numbers or blanket exemptions will have more chance for failure.
But unless they can prove that they system is not currently being abused, and unless they can come up with specific figures for the number of visas required, they will have a hard time persuading lawmakers that the cap needs to be raised beyond the current proposal of 115,000.
http://www.forbes.com/opinions/2007/05/21/outsourcing-immigration-congress-oped-cx_bw_0523legislate.html
What you are saying is a high level picture of what the lawmakers think.
Instead of asking reasonable numbers asking for no cap.
True that the tech companies are not comming up with a cap because they believe by saying this, they might be restricted for many years to bring in extra people if they have an opening.
Before dot com bust even lot of US citizens welcomed H1b persons as there was not much layoffs. But past 7 years layoffs increased to outsource to India,China and other countries. For that they have to hire H1b and L1 persons from Countries mainly India. Those things made anti immigrants hardened their stand. US workers fear that they may lose job if US opens up immigration too much.
How did the anti-immigrants get a upper hand on this. They are allowing illegals to get an easy path to citizenship.. this will cause a huge influx of people who will benefit the economy but down the line their children will take up the jobs of the americans.. so why a benefit to illegals.
Now you would say that there are so many companies lobbying for the illegals,
true but why don't they listen to the tech lobbyist who are few in number but asking what is actually,legally, abide rulles ly necessary to increase the economy.

As long as you have had a valid h1b peition approved for employer 1 and employer 2 while you worked for them you are FINE.
According to my lawyer there is nuthing like a h1b transfer. When someone decides to move to a new sponsor that new sponsor files for a h1b via the petition but nuthing gets transfered, they need to refer to old h1b just to prove thatyou are legal and have been maintaining legal status.
in your case Employer X did so but you never joined that employer so you are fine. USCIS can get back to that emplyer if they have not cancelled your h1b as they are liable to pay you by law.
For real as you had an approved petition (latest but not the greatest) from Employer X but did not join them you are fine as long as you were still holding a valid petition with Emp # 2. You should respond back to RFE stating that you were maintaining stauts via emp#2 and were offered a job by EmpX which you never accepted. As a proof you should sen copies of pay stub for enitre period and w-2 + peition and visa copies.
Hope this helps!:)

I just called and got a similiar very supportive response from the staff. She mentioned that she is getting a lot of phone calls about the 3 bills and will let him know about it. Go IV Go :)
I just called and spoke to a staff member at Lamar Smith's office. Apparently a lot of calls are being made :D. She knew why I was calling before I could tell her. I was told that the Rep. has not made a public stand on these bills yet. I told her that I would like the Representative to support these bills if and when they come to the floor.
Keep calling, guys!.

You may be all right as far as your discussion is concerned but for the following one:
1000 people * $20 each = $20 K. So that is not an impossibility.
1000 people donating 20 bucks each, dude you are day dreaming. If you are seriously into this law suit stuff, be prepared to speand MONEY, TIME, ENERGY of your own and not 20$ from your side.
Did you not hear about how Aman spent 60+K of his own. So.....
I contributed around 300$ till now to IV.
I am one of the several may be thousand who have been affected. I am not using this for my slefish purposes. I am trying to get the suppoprt of IV and its members for this cause. I am not disagreeing with IV in any way.
This is an agenda for a common cause for all affected people and I want everyone to support.
Someone has to sow the seed and start the process. Doesn't mean since I started the thread it is my selfish agenda. It is part of IV's goal to get justice for all people who are affected by any immigration issue. So IV is the right forum to raise this issue.

I have six other guys who are in US for over 7 years who are also intrested in this admin(hopefully) fix . Please let us know what we can do? They just signed up@ immigrationvoice.org.
I am very interested as well. I find this highly ridiculous that people have to wait 6-7 years to get residency status in any country. It is high time that the laws of the land change.
Please advise on what can be done.

then why are visas about to be wasted yet again this year?
after...they said all numbers were exhausted on July 2?
i think it's not quite that simple.
there is no doubt that lack of numbers is a key key issue. but letting uscis off the hook when they have failed to process 269,000 Green Card numbers since 1994 is not kosher. that is >20% of the backlog right there.
my straightforward NIW application based on national interest service not exceptional ability (which may be more subjective) will take almost a year to process. wow....!
uscis also takes the narrowest interpretations of any law- even when it clearly conflicts with the law's intent- then it takes a lawsuit to budge them- speaking from personal experience and the loss of 4 years in PD in an India line...believe me this is not an agency i feel like defending.
just my 2c.
Hey, mine is EB2 ROW - can't get any more straightforward than that, I-140 is approved, and PD has always been current! Well, 1 year 7 month and still counting. It would be really easy for me to blame USCIS inefficiencies, but let's look at the whole picture. My second H1 was approved in 1 day (premium processing), my I-140 was approved in 9 days (not premuim processing), I got my fingerprint notice and RFE on I-485 a month after I applied - that means the case was looked at, determined what else they needed, and everything was processed. Work on my AOS case was over 4 month after applying (and I did apply concurrently). Then, I had to wait for namecheck... and wait and wait. Do I blame the processing center for that? No, it's not their fault. Do I blame Chertoff for that? Sure! He is the one who's supposed to negotiate things between DHS and FBI, and make sure things work well together.
Now, we come to a different issue - quotas. It is obvious that USCIS is not good at all at managing quotas. I am in management, and to me the task of getting within 100-200 approvals on 140,000 quota does not appear Herculean. It's a very predictive process, so theoretically it should be easy to get to right numbers. My take - USCIS system is built in a way that does not allow them to understand and manage the flow of petitions - and forecast how many will be ready for approval in any given month. That's a big flaw, but you know what is the best way to fix it - to relax quotas. Then, they would not have to triple-check every petition to make sure it's current and it is its time to be approved. Having quotas adds a lot of complexity that CIS can't manage. If you look at the immediate family petitions, that do not have quotas, they are getting approved in 3-4 month, so one part of the system works fine, and the other does not.
