No one on Capitol Hill could fail to be impressed by IV's exceptional organization and by the strength and the reasonableness of it's message. The NYTimes and Washington Post coverage confirms that IV is an organization with a major role to play in crafting future legislation. Well done all!!!

This is another example where lot of noise made and then nothing happens.
People talk here about filing lawsuit as it it is easy as filing something and on first hearing, judgment will be passed in their favor. Of course, no one even bothers to get initial professional advice.
Soon, we will have some other topic that will have similar discussion and similar fate.
Good Luck to everyone.

Actually I made mistake in my math,
$20 (2% of $1000 monthly bill) * 2k ( 10% of 20k IV members) = 40K per month
I guess 10% people with $1000 monthly credit card bill is not too optimistic.. is it?
One simple way to measure this is, lets have poll. ( how do you create poll?) I have never done it before.
poll choice should be
Your preference to contribute to IV
Choices are
1) I prefer to contribute $10/20 cash monthly
2) I prefer to use IV branded credit card, Let CC company pay 2% of my cc bill every month.
3) I prefer Google ads on IV website...I promise to click on 10 ads every day ;)
One important question is, does IV loose any charitable(non-profilt) status by issuing a CC?
-Naushit.
First of all, "promise to click 10 ads a day" does not seem like a good idea, and it will land IV in trouble if ever google ads show up on IV!
Now, when you read the following... YOU stands for each one of the people who are waiting for the IV credit card, the google ads, and similar such by-products of their apathy towards their own cause!
I am choosing the word "apathy" because IMHO waiting for google ads or the IV credit card is just another way to evade the question-- what have YOU done to help the only grass roots organization of volunteers like YOU who work tirelessly to get YOU out of this mess?
If clicking away 100 ads a day or paying for junk food with your IV credit card is the only way you can contribute, that's just lame!
And what is the guarantee this will work?
The IV credit card, if it becomes a reality, will not give YOU any cashback, and so YOU will continue to use your cashback generating costco amex cards and similar such credit cards.
The only common theme is... YOU want to find ways to evade contributing to IV.
Gosh... some of YOU folks are making IV sound like IT (Income Tax) :D

Arunmurthy,
You also need to grow up. Making derogatory remark on UP/Bihar, you showed it.
These days, people blame UP/Bihar for anything... Hyprocate like you are not belong to any state or nation. At least psaxena showing how is proud of IV being donor. We as freeloader should appreciate and not to take it as donor vs freeloader. Its his choice to be donor and its your and mine not to be donor. If you are too proud of your english, then be proud of it. Atleast he can write hindi (national language). Do you?
Dude,
Either write in Hindi or English because your sentences dont make any sense at all atleast
grammatically.
It is hypocrite and not hypocrate.
I can speak Hindi, Urdu, Tamil and Telgu besides English.
Can you?

Guys,
I don't know why you are wasting your time calling uscis. The fact is that USCIS released a statement they would reject all applications. Please don't waste your valuable time and focus of media and your senators. Please don't count on miracles. For now uscis may hold the applications for a few days because of the congressional action by congresswoman Lofgran, but we should keep the momentum and increase the awareness of this important issue.
Contact you senators and the press like others did! Thank You.

WASHINGTON -- Greeley Mayor Tom Selders wants to know when Congress is going to address immigration reform.
It's a simple question, but the answer is as elusive as the proverbial dog's tail -- a dizzying chase of vague answers and insufficient information.
"It seems to me like people are talking about immigration issues all over the country," Selders said. "I think that it is really sad that the government can't put a priority on it."
The latest source of Selders' frustration was a meeting of business and community leaders in late January with Sen. Wayne Allard, R-Colo.
"We were disappointed with Allard's response," Selders said.
Sean Conway, Allard's chief of staff, said Allard never promised to bring up immigration at this particular delegation meeting.
"What he talked about was that he would be glad, as the process began to move forward and as concerns were brought forth, to pass those concerns on" to the delegation, Conway said.
Conway said Allard would very much like to see the issue brought up in the Senate, but that as far as he knew, it was not at the top of the Democratic agenda. "This is an issue (Allard) very much wants to be involved with and has been involved with," Conway said.
But Sen. Ken Salazar, D-Colo., said immigration was a major issue that would be addressed this year, maybe as early as March.
"I think it is just a matter of time as to when we are able to get to it and I hope it is sooner than later," he said. Salazar is working with the Senate leadership on the immigration legislation, which will be sponsored by Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., and Majority Leader Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev.
But for Selders, soon is not quick enough.
"We have frustration here. We see a lot issues and turmoil and some very nasty comments," he said. "(City officials) have all taken oaths of allegiance we will enforce the laws of this land and the frustration is that we lack the resources to do that. The laws are unclear and we lack jurisdiction."
Immigration's National Outlook: Cloudy
Outside of the Colorado delegation, consensus and clarity on when the immigration will receive top billing by Congress is not much better.
Congress, under Democratic control, is actually in tune with President Bush on immigration for the first time in years. Despite this, few observers believe that a comprehensive immigration bill will pass this year.
One of the few is Bob Dane, press secretary for the Federation for American Immigration Reform, who said President Bush and the Democrats were "locked and loaded" to pass immigration reform that included a guest worker program, or "amnesty."
"I don't see how immigration can be an issue leading up to the 2008 election," he said. "It's such a volatile issue. We are guessing that they want to get it done before the election."
But John Keeley, director of communications for the Center for Immigration Studies, a think-tank that researches immigration, was not certain. He said many of the freshman democrats, known as "Blue Dogs," who gave the Democrats the majority, were elected on immigration platforms that were against a guest worker program, favored by Bush and the Democratic leadership of Congress.
"On the horizon of the 2008 general election we tend to think that it is not likely we will see significant legislation," as opposed to last year, he said.
Keeley said instead of landmark legislation, lawmakers will try to pass bills or amendments that only address small pieces of the issue.
That process has already begun. A bill was introduced in the Senate that would set up a guest worker program just for agriculture workers. In addition, a provision has been attached to minimum wage legislation that would withhold federal contracts from any company found hiring illegal immigrants.
But the Democratic leadership is hoping to have a comprehensive immigration bill on President Bush's desk by the end of the year.
Laura Capps, a spokeswoman for Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., said the senator, who is the Senate subcommittee chair on immigration, border security and citizenship, was hoping to have the Senate bill introduced in late February or early March. Capps did not know of an exact date yet.
The real fight is expected in the House, not the Senate, which passed bipartisan legislation last session. The Republican House leadership was uninterested in the guest worker program, however, and only discussed the border enforcement aspect --the so-called 700-mile border fence.
Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., the chairwoman of the House subcommittee on immigration, border security and claims, plans to begin the committee process "promptly." But her spokeswoman, Kyra Jennings, said no date has been set to begin consideration of an actual bill.
STATE STATISTICS 2006
570 bills concerning immigrants were introduced in state legislatures.
90 bills and resolutions passed the state legislatures
84 of those were signed into law, more than double the amount of 2005
32 states enacted laws, including Colorado
Most states focused on education, employment, identification and driver's licenses, law enforcement, legal services, public benefits, trafficking and voting procedures.

This is the newslink what we discussed earlier on IEEE-USA's view on CIR:
http://www.vnunet.com/vnunet/news/21...oreign-workers
This says "Combined with the H-1B visa increases, the Senate bill also includes "substantial increases" in legal permanent immigrant admissions that could have a major impact on the US IT workforce and engineering enterprise, according to IEEE-USA."
IEEE-USA must know the current increase of EB visas in CIR was mainly warranted due to the current backlogs in labor and due to retrogression.
IEEE-USA when issuing statement like this, should understand that making people wait 5-8 years for adjudication is simply unfair.
Let IEEE-USA vouch to reform H-1B later and work to clear the backlogs and retrogression first.

Here I want to make clear, FIFO for taking labor applications and sending ad instructions not for approving. I know depending on compilcation of cases(I think), some cases with PD 2005 get approved fast and cases with PD 2003 are taking longer. I dont know why all these mess in DOL, for taking the labor applications and sending ad instructions.
No, I don't think it has anything to do with complication of cases. I know of the two different employees with the same employer with similar jobs/descriptions, one with PD 2005 approved and another with PD 2003 whose application hasn't even been taken for processing. So the behavior of the BEC just seems to be random and there seems to be no particular logic. Complication of the cases is definitely not one of the reasons as far as I know.

Thanks Totoro.
Can Totoro (or anybody) answer this question?
We filed married filing joingly and received our tax returns and no stimulus rebate. Can we re-file our tax return by filing separately this year (i.e. extension/amendment within 3 months?) Has anyone done this? Please let me know.
I noticed that if you itemize your deductions, you dont loose much even if you file "married filing separately".
Thanks!

heard you loud and clear,
and usually take complaints very well.
but when someone only complains and spends time undermining us and our efforts elsewhere and when they return only to take potshots...i reserve my right. you are actively harming this organization by your actions and it's not hidden to us, therefore you are retarding our goals- and those will benifit all 25,000 here- active, passive etc. not every person is creating value here and that is the fact. your attitude is childish, i will say it again. it's childish because your purpose is not to improve things in any way or help us achieve our goals but to prove some silly point about how you were treated in the past. but this is the last time i'm bothering, i want to move beyond this. some of us have better things to do than lurk around and wait to score personal points. you have already stated you have no wish to contribute further in any way. so be it.
also know that free speech is all well and good. but no organization will allow it's forums to be used to undermine it's objectives. try doing it on numbers usa or alipac and see how long you last.
As I heard, the discussions on this forum do not come under "free speech" as these are not something that the Government is trying to regulate against the People.
