    I have been member of IV since Dec 05. Probably since a couple of weeks after it was founded.

    In last 2 years, I have seen many ups and downs with this org and there are numerous stories to share in my work with core and grassroots, with lobbyists and congressional staffers, with friends and colleagues.

    But what has been happening in few places lately is something that those responsible should be ashamed of.

    On saturday IV chapter leader in Texas Needhelp! had organized a local chapter meetup. Now you may ask, oh, another one of those. What do they do anyways?

    Well, here is what we do in chapter meetups.

    WE WORK.

    We find groups that can be formed to meet local congressmen. We refine talking points. We share updates that we dont usually share on website. We help new members get up to speed. We sometimes get local immigration attorneys to answer questions on pro-bono basis (yes, that means free for you) to serve the community. Lawyers get free publicity, we get free legal advise. A symbiotic quid-pro-quo.

    This is what happened this weekend in Plano TX (Dallas Suburb).

    Now mind you, Dallas area alone has probably atleast 300 registered members. Not to mention the lurkers for whom I have a special message below(at the end).

    This is what she (Needhelp) reported after chapter meetup.

    Most members who were expected to show up did not. I spent whole morning preparing this, I feel guilty that I made my daughter miss her dance class and then those who had RSVPed didnt show up.

    Yep. She missed an extra carricular event important to her daughter for this meetup.

    Dont even get me started on those who live 10 miles from Plano Texas and dont bother responding even.

    You know, when someone arranges to send you details in email and you know about it, you say you will attend and then you dont, what do you think is going to happen?

    IF EAD IS THE END OF THE ROAD FOR YOU...

    If EAD is the end of the road for you, then why are you still coming to this website. There are about always 600-700 people on this site during the day and about 300 people at night. Who are these people?

    The truth of the matter is, the ones who dont contribute, have stopped contributing, or have never contributed funds, attended events or given anything to this org - but still keep scouring theads - are the people to be pitied. You will always be worried. "Mera kyaa hoga". (what will happen to me). Your journey wont end. Ever. Even after getting GC you will be worried about citizenship. Even after getting citizenship, there will be small itch in your head - what if my citizenship is revoked (yes it can legally happen and has happened to a WWII genocide guy in 2001-2002 timeframe, go google it and ruin your rest of the day).

    The truth of the matter is, right now, even after getting EAD, then only action you have taken is either stopped contributing funds, or stopped giving any of your time to this org.

    But your life has not changed one bit.

    You probably wont even use your EAD or change employers. You will constanly be worried about your namecheck, your fingerprints, your this, your that. You will be worried about new inquiries and RFEs coming on your approved 140 (approved years ago) during 485 processing. (yes that can happen too). You will be worried about accidental rejection of 485 (that's why most of the people wont even use EAD and continue on H1 to preserve option of using appeals process to appeal 485 rejection on H1). You will be worried about USCIS not buying your AC21 portability and sending your RFEs to prove that the ported job is "Same or similar" in nature. You will be worried about being unemployed for few weeks at a wrong time just about when 485 RFE comes and you dont have a letter to show you have a job offer to justify 485 approval.

    So basically the struggle hasnt ended. Yes, keeping looking at your EAD in your wallet every 3 minutes, its still miserable.

    So why not act to end the misery rather than scour forums and comiserate. Is it that much fun to comiserate and is it that much pain to co-operate?

    THE LURKERS ON THIS SITE WHO WILL NEVER REGISTER OR DO ANYTHING AT ALL.

    Not to mention how many cowards (yes, cowards who think that by registeration on this website, the USCIS will send a black helicopter to their home and abduct and deport them, the ones who have watched the movie "enemy of the state" too many times and think that there is a Jon Voight out there who has nothing to do both to pluck legal skilled immigrants and throw them out). I have a special message for those lurkers who need this website and visit it everyday but dont have the balls to register, share email and participate in any activity. This isnt about a chapter meetup, or your greencard or even this org. Your reluctance is not a reflection of your over-cautiousness. Its a reflection of your character. You will eventually get greencard, become citizens even, but this kind of cowardly attitude will made you lead a boring, uneventful and mediocre life.

    And by the way, if the government was really after you, they would have already gotten to you for browsing this site too. Dont you think they (the black helicopter guys) can find our who you are while you are lurking? Ever heard of IP addresses? If I can find that out then they can do much more.

    Does this attorney approachable ? Does he answer your phone calls ?
    Does he promptly reply to your emails ? Does he clarify your doubts ?

    Do you deal with him directly or does your company rep speak for you ?

    How is his fees ? Is he expensive or affordable ?


    I highly recommend for all of the reasons I have posted earlier on this page (pg 5) and 1 more:
    Andrew himself is an immigrant from UK - he went to law school in Florida and had to endure the painful green card process himself.

    He is very responsive to both phone calls and emails.

    He will deal with you directly or with your company - any way you wish.

    And most of all he is thoroughly professional - but extremely affordable - he only charged me+family total $1600 for entire GC processing starting from PERM --> I-140 --> I-485/EAD/AP (for me and my wife).

    Hope this helps.

    Regards,

    netnerd

    LOL...Couldn't help myself after reading this thread... Guys who are frustrated..i totally commiserate with all of you who are stuck in BEC..All the july filers would be eligible to file for their 485s and would get their EAD's ad AP's a couple of months earlier than the folks stuck in BEC.The BEC folks would get them too when the dates move starting Oct 1st.

    Its ultimately the PD thats important for the green card..since you already have your PD much before than the june fliers,you always have your place in the GC line. Unless you guys come and join us its not gonna move...

    Hi,
    I was using my (dependent) EAD card (based on pending I-485 application of wife) to work and got laid off recently. The question I have is if there will be any adverse impact on the greencard process if I file for unemployment benefits? Any inputs appreciated

    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.

    Can we organize a hunger strike in front of CAPITOL HILL ,just for one day ?
    IV can co-ordinate the event. It will give BIG media attention in DC. It will open the eyes of American people !

    1 day hunger events don't make as much splash as longer ones. But that day be better a working day. :)

    This may be useful to understand a little more about e-filing of I-140 for those of who doesn't know much because the employer/lawyer doesn't give u full information. There appears to be no e-filing for I-485. Anyway navigate thru the USCIS pages for more info.

    http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=47f2065d85cee010VgnVCM1000000ecd190aRCR D&vgnextchannel=9059d9808bcbd010VgnVCM100000d1f1d6a1 RCRD

    Supporting documentation

    Submitting Supporting Documentation

    Supporting documentation is the initial evidence that is required as proof of identification and as justification of eligibility for a benefit. These documents are required for USCIS to make a decision on your application. Examples of supporting documentation include copies of birth certificates, marriage licenses, Permanent Resident Cards, etc.

    Instructions for Submitting Supporting Documentation for E-Filed Applications Only

    Review the instructions for your E-Filed form to determine what supporting documentation is required.


    Please Note: If you E-File Form I-90, you must submit all required initial evidence and supporting documentation at the time of your in-person appearance at your local ASC. Please see the Form-Specific Instructions for E-Filing I-90.

    Gather your supporting documentation for your E-Filed application.
    Originals and Copies. In almost all cases, submit a photocopy of your supporting document to the USCIS. For more information, see How Do I Know If I Need Original Documents?

    Translations. Any foreign language document must be accompanied by a full English translation that the translator has certified as complete and correct, and by the translator's certification that he or she is competent to translate the foreign language into English.

    Print a copy of your Confirmation Receipt notice and attach it as a cover page (or first page) to your supporting documentation package.
    DO NOT include a copy of your E-Filed application with your supporting documentation.
    If you E-Filed several applications concurrently (see E-Filing Forms Concurrently), you will have a Confirmation Receipt notice for each application submitted.
    Include the Confirmation Receipt notice(s) as the first page of the supporting documentation for each application.
    DO NOT include any paper-based applications or fees with your supporting documentation for the E-Filed application.
    NOTE: All Attorneys and Organizational Representatives E-Filing an application or petition on behalf of a client, MUST perform the following steps:

    Fill in the Applicant/Beneficiary/Petitioner name and address information by hand.
    Sign each G-28.
    Submit the completed and signed G-28s to the address on the Confirmation Receipt notice with the required supporting documentation.
    If you E-File Form I-907 by itself or concurrently with any other application, please see the list of Special Mailing Addresses.

    Keep a copy of your Confirmation Receipt notice(s) and application(s) for your records, noting what supporting documentation you mailed and the date you mailed it. You may wish to make a copy of the entire package before mailing it.

    The following are your words, aren't they? I am not sure how anyone could read this anything other than a suggestion that people in ROW category are unskilled and a worker from a oversubscribed country is skilled. You may be the most skilled, intelligent and smart person around here but rest of us can at least read and gather what you are trying to say.

    I have nothing against you but I wouldn't want people calling ROW folks unskilled. I know you were talking about EB3 ROW but there are ton of engineers, software designers, and many more who applied in EB3 (some by skill sets, some by force, and some by choice). They are not unskilled people by any stretch of imagination.

    Now thats unfair .... you are just using one part of the quote to distort the entire post ... The discussion and context of that statement was always on categories.... and was using that sentence as an example on categories...
    The assumption was that readers would understand categories over individual qualifications/countries of origin in this context

    If you destroy the context in which a statement is made it makes the entire post "look" bad and is disingenuous

    Here is my entire post

    "It does make sense that the overflow numbers are given to higher preference categories in single state oversubscribed countries. When you think about it, will that not be the most beneficial to United States? Who would you prefer .... and Unskilled professional from a ROW category or a skilled worker from an Oversubscribed country. I would gather it would make more sense to give the opportunity to the higher skilled since the benefit to US will be higher"

    That's not right, you have to express consent before an employer can file on your behalf. Any filing without your consent MIGHT be misrepresentation or fraud.
    LAR (Last action Rule) Employer 1 or Employer 100 can file H1B, even without your knowledge. Therfore, you dont worry.

    I have not received the Receipt Notice yet.
    On the back of the cleared check, I see some numbers but not sure which is the receipt no. Does it start with LIN followed by 10 digit number? Or, is it 12 digit number with no letters?

    A) LIN followed by 10 digit number

    Something like LIN 07 XXX 5YYYY

    LIN = Nebraska Service Center
    07 = Fiscal Year 2007
    XXX = Number of computer days since October 1, 2006
    5YYY = CIS control number

    Well one can avoid Air France if it 'makes you feel better'

    The Crux of the matter is 'Indians discriminate Indians !!!!'. You see that everyday.....

    1.Indian embassies in US...
    2.Air India service is better for Goras and Goris than us...
    3.Even in a website called IV and the list goes on and on.

    Its been long forgotten that we were once the richest country in the world with a amazing history and cultural background.

    Bottom line: Once a fellow Indian starts respecting another fellow Indian 'others will follow'.

    Cheers!!!
