Myself and my wife were discussing on this and there are also some contradicting results from the vaccine.So a vaccine no long enough in the market , whose resukts not yet agreed completely by all the doctors shud not be mandated for anyone ,not just immigrants.

Thanks IV team.
Does IV know if Schumer is getting any traction after meeting with other republican lawmakers? Lugar indicated previously that he is interested in the EB part.

I see a lot of people flocking into "Orkut". How about incorporating a dose of IV through orkut if some of us are already there? What is more important is, making people aware of the consequences they might have to face, even if they havent filed for their GC yet.
That's a nice idea. Who has orkut membership ?
What about sending one more Fax to congressmen and senators ?

100,000 pros may return to India from US
As economic downturn continues to grip the United States, as many as 100,000 highly skilled Indians -- and as many Chinese -- may return home over next three to five years, which will boost the economies and competitiveness of both the emerging Asian nations.
The reverse immigration could end up as a big loss to the US, which has so far relied heavily on the immigrants to give it a technological edge over the rest of the world, according to a study conducted by Indian-American Vivek Wadhwa and released by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation.
The majority of these Western-educated, skilled and talented young Indian and Chinese professionals are planning to start new ventures, says the report released on Monday.
Much before the American economic slowdown, a large number of these professionals had already begun returning home lured apparently by prospects of a better future back home.
It also indicates that placing limits on foreign workers in the US is not the answer to its rising unemployment rate and may undermine efforts to spur technological innovation.
"A substantial number of highly skilled immigrants have started returning to their home countries in recent years, draining a key source of brain power and innovation," said Robert Litan, vice president of Research and Policy at the Kauffman Foundation.
Based on a six month survey of 1,203 Indian and Chinese who went back home, the report finds though restrictive immigration policies caused some returnees to depart the US, the most significant factors in the decision to return home were career opportunities, family ties, and quality of life.
"There are no hard numbers available on how many have returned, but anecdotal evidence shows that this is in the tens of thousands," said Wadhwa, executive-in-residence for Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University.
Wadhwa is also a fellow at the Labour and Work life Programme at Harvard Law School and is a BusinessWeek columnist.
"With the economic downturn, my guess is that we'll have over 100,000 Indians and as many Chinese return home over the next 3-5 years. This flood of western educated and skilled talent will greatly boost the economies of India and China and strengthen their competitiveness," he said.
India is already becoming a global hub for R&D. This will allow it to branch into many new areas and will accelerate the trend, Wadhwa said.
The report reveals that family considerations are strong magnets pulling immigrants back to their home countries. Care for aging parents was considered by 89.4 per cent of Indians and 79.1 per cent of Chinese respondents to be much better in their home countries, says the 24-page report.

I laughed at it when i first saw this in OhLaw website. Any employee who thinks of AC21 job change would be in either of those buckets mentioned and conclusion is NO AC21 for EB employees if truely interpreted another scary tactic though.....

Spillover from Family to Employment will occur for FY 2010-2011. Not for September.
Family spillover for 2009-10 is approximately 10500, and is already allocated.
We wouldn't know this number until DOS publishes Immigration Statistics for 2010.
My lawyer says there is going to be about 5-10K spillover from Family to employment based. Gurus can you estimate how much dates will move if that happens. I am hoping nothing for EB3 though :(

What if VISA is not given .. can you come back?
Chances are that it would not be possible, I know an individual who has been awaiting security clearance in Canada since last October based on a name check hold up. This is not something one can predict, for your name can make a hit at any time. Fortunately the individual is a Canadian PR and is able to telecommute.

It is hard to say. I am in the same situation as you (filed concurrently by June 21). I believe it is not worth giving them an extra $1000, and for what. You already have filed your I-485. What is the downside?
Mine was upgraded to Premium by my company after waiting 15 months (see signature). Two days after it was upgraded, my I-140 was approved. Then company lawyer sent inquiry to USCIS on my I-485 after that I saw LUD on 9/15,9/16,9/17 then nothing. Then another LUD on 10/25,10/26 then on 10/27 i got 21 emails from CRIS, our 485 was approved (family of 5). So I think it's worth it. I thought I am stucked with name/background check but I guess I am not since they approved my I-485. So good luck to you guys !!

Hi guys,
Sorry, I was absent for a long time. I am back now!
@ Hebron:
Yes, I am planning to file the EB2 with the same employer. Of course that is what prompted my questions in the first place.
@ veni:
Thanks for the suggestion. Yes, my employer applied for the H1B amendment and LCA and got them approved. So I hope that is good.
@ JamesSingham:
James, is your case the same as mine? i.e. you converted from EB3 to EB2 with the same employer (for a different job title & responsibilities) and are using the experience you gained with the same employer? Have you filed for EB2 PERM already? What is the current status? BTW how do we prove that the job responsibilities are 50% different. Obviously reading the EB3 job description and EB2 job description should make it clear. But I guess the DOL expects some formal proof about this? What kind of documents/letters/evidence has your current employer included in your application to prove that the two positions are > 50% different? Is there a standard procedure for doing this? Too many questions...sorry. But I hope you understand my situation :(. Please provide you responses. That will greatly help.

Yeah it was on fox news live, This guy Tom Tancredo says people dont have "right to green card". As far as I understand I dont beleive that I have a right to green card and I beleive vast majority people on this forum know that fact.
Mere submitting AOS application does not guarentee Green card for anyone , If Tom Tancredo has problem with lawsuits for due process he should be more concerned how CIS handled 60000 applications in 12 working days.

In the same boat guys. Signed by J.Barret 10:25am. No receipts yet. Called USCIS twice last week. Still not in system.
No news yet. No checks cashed. I'm getting really worried now. Anyone else with similar delivery info please post any updates on the status of your application here.
Thanx!

When is the Senate meeting and is it scheduled to take up the skil bill this year??...
When can it take it up next year??...
Could you please give some dates???.
I don't want to sound cynical but restate and emphasize what I have shared with the group over past few months. Everytime, around a deadline or around something we think as a cure, we build up hope, hype, leading to hysterical exchanges of postings, name callings, subsequent regrets , pre-mature back-pattings and in the end, enormous amount of disappointment.
I wish we could avoid this over SKIL Bill. The trend which many of us do not want to see is that the bill is just a decoy to satisfy industry-backed hard-currency donor stakeholders. The underlying mood among the majority of the members of Congress is not to seen as someone who gives even an inch **for** immigration. Any member who is seen as supporting openly for immigration on the floor would be a red herring or someone wearing a bull's eye while walking by a shooting range. This is the fact and any amount of new forum topics, name callings, challenging admin members etc. will not change the reality. Anybody familiar with the currents of democratic politics would know to expect no improvements - but only noises- over contentious issues 70 days before a critical nation-wide election. This is true for US of Americal, India or any other democratic country.
Guys, harden yourselves. IF and a big IF, something could happen, it should happen only with the new congress in place. That gives you a timeline starting from late December 2006. Add in a month or two at least for the matter to soak into among the new members, committees reorganized, scope of the issues redefined, proposed bills rewritten based on the current political climate.
I would bet on spring of 2007 and you may start praying that the issue gets settled positively before Thanksgiving of 2007 as after that would be, roughly, the start time for next Big election cycle. Just before you shoot emails criticizing me or my posting, please note that my visa number is retrogressed too and I have no ulterior motives to make this posting.

I am also in same situation. My lawyer told me that he will file our application seperately without including each other as dependant. This doessn't make sense..... any input from others?
unless your PDs are very close to each other dont file independent. One will get GC first, other will be stuck for a while (unless you take the risk of withdrawing one ap and filing again when one person looks cloes to getting apprvoed)

Hi Antonio,
Great stuff!!!
I love no. 2, 3 and 4.
2 for the dynamic composition, 3 just cracked me up because the percussion instruments are so domineering and 4 seems pure concentration. 2 and 4 could maybe be cropped slightly, but that's very minor.
Cheers,
Stefanie

This guy at the percussion was fantastic !!! He was very concentrate on it and make a lot of funny faces :) ...i think he is Lenny Kravitz�s cousin hahahahah ..just for fun ok.
