06/07/2008: Congressional Legislative Strategy Shifts from H-1B to EB Green Card Options for Recruiting and Retaining Required Highly Skilled Foreign Workers from oh-law
* Report indicates that the H-1B visa cap adjustment efforts have been stymied by the legislative deadlock over broader immigration reform despite some bi-partisan efforts, and supporters of highly skilled foreign workers are focusing on exempting these foreign workers from the national annual limit for the employment-based immigration (140,000), particularly for the U.S. advanced degree holders, where these supporters can make the strongest case for keeping these workers in the U.S. with lesser challenges from opponents than the option to increase the number of national annual limit from 140,000 to either 290,000 or even 400,000. This strategy is evidenced by the efforts of Rep. Zoe Lofgren, Chairwoman of House Judiciary Immigration Subcommittee and Sen. Barbara Boxer in the Senate. As we reported it, these legislators have introduced several bills both in the House and the Senate to achieve the strategic target for enacting employment-based immigration relief for the business community. This trend is however not limited to these two bills. We have a bill introduced by Sen. Cornyn, another bill introduced by Sen. Norm Colman of Minnesota, a bill introduced by Rep. Kennedy, a bill introduced by Sen. Gregg to convert current Diversity Visa Program to the employment-based immigration program, etc.
* Out of the foregoing bills, Rep. Lofgren and Sen. Boxer bills are expected to face less challenge from the Hispanic Caucus in the Congress in that these bills do not propose adjustment of the employment-based immigration quota and will bring about a limited impact on overall employment-based immigration reform goals to solve the overall currently broken employment-based immigration system, and these EB supporters should eventually join the comprehensive immigration reform supporters in the future to achieve the needed overall reform in the employment-based immigration system within the context of the comprehensive reform. Surely enough, current EB bills represent piecemeal immigration legislations with lesser impact on the overall strategy of the comprehensive immigration reform strategists. Reportedly, to seize a momentum to obtain supports from the national election candidates for the next year's comprehensive immigration reform, the Hispanic strategists and comprehensive immigration reform supporters are scheduled to mobilize massive rallies during the Labor Day holiday in September throughout the country and the country will be swirled into the debates of comprehensive immigration reform legislation rather than piecemeal legislation. Accordingly, unless the supporters of the pending employment-based immigration bills work hard and successfully pursuade rather than pressure the Hispanic legislators very quickly, the odds are not too promising.

You want to know the "experiences" of people on how to take a photocopy ? I believe you got your GC in EB-2 category, so you should be skilled enough to know this.

The next step should be to reply to the senator mentioning that the data is ambiguous and asking for a more clear response. Is it I-140 or I-485, does it include families etc. etc.
Also explain to them that based on these numbers, it will take X years for a person to get a GC and that the system needs reform.
I have worked with a senator's office for a completely different matter and they are very responsive - since you have caught their attention and already have a file open, it will be helpful to respond with a concise letter so that you can get more accurate information.

On March 30, my wife was issued a RFE for her incomplete medicals (TB test & Vaccination). Yesterday our attorney submitted the completed medical reports and today I received an email from 'CRIS' acknowleding the receipt of our response and resumption of the case. Checked the Online status and it also showed the today's LUD. Will keep the IV posted with any further development on our cases.
Here is the text of that email (seems very generic):
".........
Application Type: I485 , APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
Current Status: Response to request for evidence received, and case processing has resumed.
On April 23, 2009, we received your response to our request for evidence. We will notify you by mail when we make a decision or if we need something from you. If you move while this case is pending, call customer service. You should expect to receive a written decision or written update within 60 days of the date we received your response unless fingerprint processing or an interview are standard parts of case processing and have not yet been completed, in which case you can use our processing dates to estimate when this case will be done. This case is at our NEBRASKA SERVICE CENTER location...... "

If today its approved in the house..we are done..it goes the Prez for signing and we all add another card to our wallets:o
Ohh boy, what a dream. Anyway, it needs to get voted at House. A senate version needs to pass. Both the versions have to be merged and then only president signs, long way to go.

I'm sure there are some intelligent and caring lawmakers somewhere who listen to legal immigrants' plight. They don't seem to be in enough or meaningful numbers. Most are interested in either keeping their seats or serving a subsection of their community.
Again, I believe they are moved mostly by lobbyists and other power groups. I don't yet fully understand how much power IV can wield, but IV could be one such group.
Lawmakers care about high-skilled immigrants only because people like B. Gates, Compete America and such keep lobbying any and all the time.
BTW, I'm not at all short-sighted about this. I'm just more realistic about how things happen in Washington. Need proof: For example, look at the staffers on McCain's campaign. Most are lobbyists. Understanding how democracy works in America and commenting about it is what the real big picture is.

Calling does help in many ways. People have to think positive rather than berating an effort.
Based on the original post, I infer that lawmakers won't care if they receive calls from LEGAL Aliens. If that is the logic then why do you think that lawmakers will work on "immigration" bills. After all the "immigration" bills only benefit folks who don't vote immediately. But one of lawmakers duty is to build the next generation America, and "immigration" bills benefit next generation America. People got to understand this fundamental difference and stop being pessimistic about IV efforts.
Directly talking to lawmakers office (through phone or in person) is far more effective than Web faxes and digital signatures.
I just cannot understand how high-skilled folks can be so short sighted, Look at the big picture.

"On March 27, 2009, you filed a motion to reopen. You indicated the use of the applicant's ability to "port" under section 106(c) of the American Competitiveness in the 21st Century Act (AC21). The requirements were met and the motion to reopen was approved.
CONCLUSION: It is concluded that the grounds stated for denial have been overcome.
ORDER: It is ordered that the motion to reopen be approved. The Form I-485 is "pre-adjudicated" awaiting visa availability."
Congratulations, and that is probably the most 'relieving' MTR approval message ever.
Thank you for sharing your story.

There is one more thing that not many people are aware of.
Let me ask eveybody. Even after all this, why are these Desi consulting companys successful in the market? They have poor quality product (People with forged Resume), they are not charging lower rates, but still they are able to put there people in Projects?
there is demand. Lot of demand. Bloating of resumes is common practice. Blaming desi companies only is hipocracy and prejudice.
Mom pop brother companies file for GCs for relatives who work in gas stations, these are not to be compared to regular staffing company. These mom pop companies are formed by immigrant community of various country immigrants in association with lawyers who exploit a loophole in the system. These are not restricted to Indians in general. One morre thing is contract marriages, where agencies + lawyer arrange a contract marriage and get the person here and get citizenship. These are more common with mexican, latino agencies.
A lot lot of shit can be talked about people who want to immigrate in some form or the other, thats why I say "hypocracy" or lack of knowledge by members when they blame IT consulting companies for the situation.
A lot of scrutiny is now in place and consulate officers look at W2s and a lot of things are going on the background to make sure system is used in correct ways.
So if you think you can make a "scapegoat" out of consulting companies and blame them for retro etc.. that may not really help people.
Small, big companies, lawyers, agencies, govt, etc... none of them are neutral. They look for themselves. So consstantly blaming consulting companies will not really help the cause.

unitednations, you making this statement makes me scared. :eek:
Shouldn't they release some memo or something before making a drastic change like this???
They should...
What is confusing is that in the notice of intent to deny; uscis officer stated that person may be eligible for ac21 and to give a job letter.
The only thing I can think of is that there may have been something wrong with the I-140 (ie., too many cases file by the 140 company and company revoked it in response to an ability to pay query, etc.).
This particular company is pretty large staffing company. i do not have any interaction with them but from what I know; they have been cancelling a lot of people's h-1b's and telling them to find other employers to transfer to. Don't know if there is a story within a story.

Yes, that is right, I said “plight of EB2-India”.
I am a passive observer of these forums. But some of the ridiculous notions floating around here have motivated me to vent. First and foremost, the law as written is highly favorable to people in EB3 categories, even from India. Here is how...
Take my example (and there are thousands like myself)....came to the US 8 years ago, spent 5 years working day and night to earn a PhD on a low (barely sustainable) stipend, got FIRST job saw decent money for the first time 6 years after I came.
Now, compare this to a person working an EB3-job for the last 8 years. Not only does this person do a real job that hopefully provides a respectable income but this person also has the option of moving to EB2 after 5 years of experience. So, at the end of the day in 2008; this person comes out ahead of me in terms of money, in terms of priority date (if ported) and most likely in terms of GC.
There are complaints all over the forum which have the stink of pretentiousness such as “oh..i am a poor EB3 waiting for n number of years” etc etc. What you guys seem to forget is that YOU are NOT an EB3, it is your JOB that is EB3. You have all the opportunities that were/are available to a person who sweated it out in the university system here to gain more qualifications and get an EB2 job. You CHOSE not to. The general discussion seems to center around cribbing about the US immigration system (Immigration by the way is a privilege defined by laws, not a birthright) and then blaming the EB2 crowd when they finally see the system implement the law as intended in the first place (horizontal spillover rules).
All these posts that refer to “my career is over because my gc is delayed” are nothing but a pathetic excuse. Law of supply and demand....if you have a skillset that is valuable, you will be fine with or without GC anywhere in the world. It takes a bunch of documents to remain here legally, all you need is a passport to go back if the system here seems so bad.
For all the attacks that are bound to happen, here is the fodder.....this is probably my first and last post, I haven’t contributed a dime to IV, will work here as long as I like it and if not, India is a great country and provides enough opportunities for any skillset !!
most ridiculous argument and surprising because it is coming from a Phd. Surely, you must have defended your doctoral thesis, or did'nt you have one ? :p
The people who go for Phds should know that they are sacrificing short-term future cash flows in exchange for a far superior long-term cash flows. The others "EB3" go for a more milder but increasing series of future cash flows.
To each his own!!! But when people say that "my career is over because my gc is delayed" UNDERSTAND that they are venting their frustration. It does not mean that their career is really over.
And, like you, they will also work here as long as they like it and if not, go back...
