Are u a crazy ??? He is not teaching you (Looks like you need some teaching anyway)
Just a question , how are you fighting the immigration war.. (You fight a war , and solve a problem)
Anyone has the right to express his opinion. You start calling people coward..
If you have nothing in India to cherish for, Doesn't mean that other people dont have it either?
sidbee,
I am afraid you are being naive here. What the OP is saying is
(1) We should all go back to our home land, because he has some opinions and positions on what is considered turning back to home land. You might not see it but he is trying to shape opinion of others very intelligently. Who says this? Some one who does not want competition here. Well, if this was coming from some one who is in India I will give him props. He is in US for 10 years and he is saying US GC system sucks and I will go to canada in 2 years. Damn it! I am better than him because I will go to India and not canada. I will stop short of saying that every one should go back to India or his/her homeland.
(2) We all have no right to talk because this is not our country. or We are not in our country and we should not talk. Who says this? Again folks who dont want people here.
(3) Even if I give him the benefit of doubt on other issues, he thinks country caps are OK. Any one who argues for country caps in EB GC with out asking for a country caps in F1/H1B which server as conduit to H1B actually wants the disadvantage to lot of people to his advantage.
Just dont read the words as it is. try to infer some thing. These days trolls have got too much brains.

I would like to propose your name for Nobel Prize.
Well, you can do PD porting :D :D. Adopt a 16-17 year American citizen kid(?), and you will be good to go soon. I guess you cant really adopt people beyond 18 years, but if you can, it will be like PD-porting to EB1 !! ;)

I would say ignore. If the hosts dont even use 'controversial' to describe him it's pointless trying to call in - its going to be an 'immigrant hate-fest' whether you call in or not and you are not going to win hearts or change minds. I remember 4 or 5 years ago he was raging against the H1 on air as usual and turned around to his staff and asked if CNN too was using the H1program - and the answer unsurprisingly was 'yes'. He has no sense of shame or a modicum of decency - none of his staff members either. And IV is ill-positioned and too narrowly focussed to take him on in any meaningful way given how a core member spoke against the z-visa (for illegals) to some n.carolina newspaper. But again I could be wrong so someone could give it a shot

Hi Apple,
I am sorry to hear about your case. Do not loose hope. I think it is a very common case in USA. You have achieved so may things in your life so far. You will not loose all of your hard earned money for such a normal case. I think, you should not hire a lawyer until you need to support yourself. Let the insurance company lawyer handle the case. Try to get all the information possible from company lawyer. And contact few lawyers personally & get advice. Keep the information, but do not hire. Hire a lawyer, when the company can not continue their lawyer any more.

Folks,
I know many of you may have already thought about this at some point. I'll lay out my views on the donations...IV can object/correct.
I'm following the donations thread along with many of you and there is not much to be excited there.2000$ in 2 weeks....for all the Agenda that pappu has posted. I understand that everyone(including me)...will have limited resources at our disposal every month...may it be mortgage/daycare/medical/school or those unexpected repairs...so the bottom line is there is not much room to increase our monthly contributions or...holiday contributions.
I was thinking...we are 25000 'real' people...and there are more than one visit by each person to this site.
1. Can IV use any space to advertise...so that IV can get some AD Money?
2. Is it possible to get some space on popular pro-immigrant or immigrant driven websites...to donate to our cause?
3. Would it be possible to split the donation denominations further down...like 5 dollars..or even low..so that all immigrants...including people who got the GC's/Citizenship can contribute with out looking deeper into their pockets.
4. Optional....ebay/paypal donation to the peoples questions/answers...Mind you it is totally optional...if you want to donate 5/10/20/100...or how important the question is and hw satisfied the person is with the information...etc
5. DOnation boxes at Immigrant owned grocery stores...with out compromising their principles
Folks, I have layed them out with good intentions...and have also given a thought of what I personally can do for each point above...I'm not expecting the vultures to prey...on the post with mundane comments.
Regards.

Senate Approves Levin Amendment to Improve Oversight of FBI
Background Checks
WASHINGTON � The Senate has approved an amendment by Sen. Carl
Levin, D-Mich., to improve oversight of the FBI National Name Check
Program, which faces a substantial backlog. The program is used to
run background checks on people applying for immigration benefits or
seeking employment with the U.S. government, among many other
purposes. Levin's provision, which was included as an amendment to
the Commerce, Justice, and Science (CJS) Fiscal Year 2008
Appropriations Bill, would require the FBI to report to Congress
every year regarding progress made in improving the FBI's system of
processing background checks and automating investigative files.
"The background check program's enormous backlog poses an
unacceptable burden on people whose lives are on hold, and it also
leads to a national security risk," Levin said. "Approximately
31,000 cases have been pending for at least 33 months. If these
individuals are a security threat, we must know that sooner rather
than later."
According to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)
Ombudsman's 2007 Annual Report, there were 329,160 name check cases
pending in May 2007, which is and increase of 93,358 over the
previous year. Many immigrants who are applying for adjustment of
status to legal permanent resident, naturalization, asylum, or a
waiver end up waiting for months or years for the completion of the
name check process.
In 2003, Robert J. Garrity, Jr., then Acting Assistant Director of
the Records Management Division of the FBI stated before the House
Committee on Government Reform that, "[t]he name check delays have
significant consequences to FBI customers and stakeholders. The
delays impede hiring or clearing skilled workers; completing
government contracts; student enrollment, and�clearing requested
visas for business visits to the United States. More importantly
than all of the foregoing, these processing delays can also diminish
counterterrorism effectiveness."

whats your point?? He could be from anywhere!! How does that matter with his difficult situation??
Am I the only one who thinks like this.. correct me folks.
The guy who initiated this conversation came here nearly more than 3 months back, has just 5 posts but a ton of energy to fight with US employers. Starts a topic, and we are all getting diverted in posting in this thread.
I definitely support complaining against anyone who breaks the lawy, be it employer, or employee.
In this case the guys as he "claims" appears to have come here without employer calling him. And is trying to complain against. Who will be screwed up. The employer can easily say he anticipated, but no project no, so didnt get the guy to US, as its legally allowed not to get.
Again, I STRONGLY feel this thread, and the similar, are all in an effort to divert our attention. Just stop these by not bumping them, with our comments. Let mine be the last.

Why are you so PROUD to be an American? Just be happy for it...its just your need so that you can live in this country for as many year as you want and of course its good achievement and i am happy for you, you just lived here for 10+ yrs and you forgot your Home country where you were born and gave you a good education with you had an opportunity to come here and make your life based on that..you should be PROUD of that country no matter where you go and what you achieve its all because of you Home Country
If you are form INDIA then you should say "Mera Barath Mahan" first and then "God Bless America"
Many Congrats!! to you on your American Citizenship Good Luck!!
Why shouldn't he be proud? I am sure he had to struggle to get his GC first as we all did and then wait to become a US citizen. He has chosen the US to be his country and so he has all the reasons to be proud! As for being Indian fisrt and then being American, it is all wrong. You can't have one foot in one place and the other foot in another place. He chose the US as his country and he as an obligation to be loyal to the US first.

I just put forth my thoughts. Statements should be put under quotes only when quoted verbatim. Of course you follow your own judgement. Good luck and thanks for your effort against this character.
Abhijit, Thank you for your suggestions. If you watch the Utube video, Rep Tancredo clearly said that H1-B visa holders overstay their visas. As far as the "glass house" goes I can't change the petition even if it has one signature. I wrote this to create maximum impact and we can only hope that it does.
Below is link to the Lou Dobbs' episode.

If you have secure permanent job with a solid Company,it is better to buy a home. I have a well secured job and I bought the house back in 2002. Home prices were less in 2002 compare to 2006.
But, if you are a consultant or working for a small company ,it may be better to wait till you get GC. But remember one thing, even if you get GC or Citizenship,if you loose your job and have a big mortgage to pay off,you will be in big trouble to make the monthly payment. This is true for even US Citizens !
But, if you are optimistic and ready to take some risk,you may be making some Good amount of profit in the future ! I was very optimistic and took some risk in 2002 and now I am in a Safer Side ! Think about it
Buying a house is a risky proposition on H1 specially considering the fact that if one is laid-off and needs to relocate within a short-time then one may end up loosing money. Besides getting into the hasseles of home maintainence is trouble-some and expensive and probably not worth the time and effort if one is uncertain about their future in this country.
Having said that if an individual is good at taking calculated risks and has a secure job then rewards are truly exceptional. I would rather wait atleast till the time of filling I-485 before making any long-term investments in this country. I know lot of my friends are probably going to do the same.
Good luck.

Yes, You are right...ICICI screwing up the customers like any thing.
Try using onlinesbi.com/gls for money transfers and u can also open NRI account....I have also used to use ICICI before but from past 1 year I am not using any more ICICI bank....If you guys want to open speak with New York Branch Asst Manager Saikrishna, he is so nice, he will helps you like any thing in terms of every thing...I have ever seen such type of friendlyness in any govt organizations.....SBI also gives better rate than any other banks or web sites.....
Guys time to realize that the ICICI is not a good one....more over it's private bank.....with govt banks you have 200% security.....

Dear IV Members,
If you believe that your success depends on your immigration process - whether it's the ability to file I-485 earlier or to get green-card and citizenship sooner or whether it's the ability of your spouse to work - then you have to believe that your success somehow depends on the success of Immigration voice and these 170 volunteers in DC next week.
As you may know, we are just one more week away from hosting Advocacy day in Washington DC where about 170 members of Immigration Voice will conduct nearly 250 meetings with offices of Senators and Congressmen. Such events cost money. If we have enough contributions, we can spend as per our budget of nearly $ 50,000. If not, we will have to cut back on the event spending and reduce the magnitude and size of the event.
If you are not coming to DC next week, please do your part and contribute funds to Immigration Voice. It not only finances the event properly, it instills pride and confidence in the members who will be there in DC that there are thousands of willing supporters behind them who could not be there physically but are 100% with them in their determination and resolve.
For background click here -> Announcement about April 2011 Advocacy Days (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum85-action-items-for-everyone/1901186-action-item-advocacy-days-in-washington-dc-in-april-2011-a.html#post2301599)

Zoom, thanks for the initiative. Just wanted to make sure if there are any legality issues behind core accessing the IV funds for administrative costs. Because once we donate it to IV funds(unless there is a provision for them to access that money as reimbursement administrative cost) it may not serve the intended purpose.
WE ARE WAITING FOR THE RESPONSE FROM CORE TEAM ABOUT THIS IMPORTANT ISSUE.
Guys I am ready to pay my dues to core....If you want I can start a thread to track the payment only for the core members. Lemme know what do you think.
