Thanks to all of you who had taken the initiative and now sharing the results. This is far more substantial than blaming individual groups for backlog creation (that was ridiculous in this forum). Not sure why we MUST shell out whatever money they demand. IV core, kindly comment.

Needhelp,
You should be proud of yourself. And people
who did not show up after RSVPed. Shame on you.
If you offered a $15 gift card or a free movie
coupon or Flash drive, all of these people
would have lined up at your door.( that is the
Desi attittude )
I got my green card 4 months ago.( by Lord
Krishna's grace). I still contribute to IV on monthly
autopay. I've been trying to help everyway I could from
the inception of IV. I made numourous strangers during
one time to talk about IV. ( My experience is that
Desi's are so hard to convince. Their world is their family
and four walls around them and save everypenny they earn).
I've a friend who went to 5.00am to a autoshop
to test drive and get a $50 coupon. But who would never
bother to sign a letter for IV's cause( he is a green card
waiter). I've tell him several times to do it.
Needhelp, your best way would be to find one person
committed like you to stand up. It will be much easier
then.
Here is Mother Teresa's Prayer
"People are often unreasonable, illogical and self centered..forgive them anyway"
all the bests to all of you.

Yes there is and it is called visa portability. :) this is for you as well piyu, do not jump into summary so fast.
Ok, Here's what law says about so called "transfer"
D. AC21 105 -- Visa portability
.....
gapala -
You are mixing apples and oranges.
Visa Portability (as per AC-21) allows one to start employment after filing for H-1B petition, before H-1B petition os approved.
H-1B Transfer does not invalidate current employment status (if on H-1B status) and beneficiary can continue working for original Employer A based on that I-797 validity dates.
OP needs to explain to USCIS that he never switched jobs on new H-1B approval and continued job on the basis of original I-797 dates. He was not out of status.

just wondering what did you do to get the documents apostilled ?
I tried looking for an answer, looks like it is a long procedure and you have to get it certified by the US dept of state ???
So I applied for a 10year visa for my daughter and they issued in 8 days from san francisco.

Consequences of the
National Origins Act
The goal of the National Origins Act was to control
both the quantity and quality of U.S. immigrants in an
effort to prevent further erosion of the ethnic composi-
tion of U.S. society. The law accomplished this goal
using three mechanisms: capping the overall number of
immigrants allowed into the United States in a given
month and year; favoring immigrants from certain
countries; and screening out otherwise qualified immi-
grants as unsuitable to the United States during the visa
screening process. The sorting mechanism heavily
favored northern and western European countries. The
temporary formula of 2% of the foreign-born of each
nationality in the 1890 census gave 85% of the quotas
to northern and western European nations. The national
origins system fully implemented in 1929 continued
the trend of both overall restriction and nation bias.
Indeed, the act virtually halted all immigration from
southern and eastern Europe. Thus, European immigra-
tion dropped from more than 800,000 in 1921 to less
than 150,000 by the end of the decade.
In addition to controlling the volume of immigra-
tion from Europe, the National Origins Act also
allowed a mechanism for selection of immigrants as
well. In its creation of consular offices abroad, the act
provided a frontline screening mechanism for select-
ing out those deemed unsuitable for the United States.

PART ONE
This is an old topic but I thought I would post some interesting info that I found. Give me green before someone drowns me in red.
Equal Protection Clause - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal_protection)
The Supreme Court has defined these levels of scrutiny in the following way:
Strict scrutiny (if the law categorizes on the basis of race or national origin or infringes a fundamental right): the law is unconstitutional unless it is "narrowly tailored" to serve a "compelling" government interest. In addition, there cannot be a "less restrictive" alternative available to achieve that compelling interest.
In Bakke, the Court held that racial quotas are unconstitutional, but that educational institutions could legally use race as one of many factors to consider in their admissions process. In Grutter and Gratz, the Court upheld both Bakke as a precedent and the admissions policy of the University of Michigan law school. In dicta, however, Justice O'Connor, writing for the Court, said she expected that in 25 years, racial preferences would no longer be necessary. In Gratz, the Court invalidated Michigan's undergraduate admissions policy, on the grounds that unlike the law school's policy, which treated race not as one of many factors in an admissions process that looked to the individual applicant, the undergraduate policy used a point system that was excessively mechanistic.
In these affirmative action cases, the Supreme Court has employed, or has said it employed, strict scrutiny, since the affirmative action policies challenged by the plaintiffs categorized by race. The policy in Grutter, and a Harvard College admissions policy praised by Justice Powell's opinion in Bakke, passed muster because the Court deemed that they were narrowly tailored to achieve a compelling interest in diversity. On the other side, it is argued that the purpose of the Equal Protection Clause is to prevent the socio-political subordination of some groups by others, not to prevent classification; since this is so, non-invidious classifications, such as those used by affirmative action programs, should not be subjected to heightened scrutiny.[30]

Legal,
Sorry, you probably did not put it that way, but it comes out as, we suffered yesterday, so you guys should suffer today. If that is the case, then solving the immigration issue should be the last on our minds, since we have suffered this long, maybe all the future applicants should suffer just as much.
But I am sure you did not mean it that way.
No. I didn't.
For whatever its worth Compete America has sent another letter supporting the Llofgren bills yesterday. To my knowledge this is the first time they are openly supporting an EM immig relief without asking to increase H1 B numbers.

We've been hoodwinked once again by USCIS! :mad:

SmSm,
Good to know you are pursuing a part time MBA. For people stuck inthe GC dilemma, further education is really a good oiption.
For folks around Philadelphia, if you are looking for a good part time programs, Wharton Business school is offering evening programs (Certificate) for Working Professionals. For me it was really a good experience doing the program.

My case was similar as yours. USCIS just sent a Denial on my 485 without sending a NOID in May. If 180 days have been passed on your 140 approval, then you are safe. If your employer revoked your 140 within 180 days, then you have a problem. Normally desi employers revoke 140 because of Ability to Pay issue etc. especially when you move to a different company. Good thing is that you still have your H-1 to fall back on.
Anyways, My case was reopened within 2-3 weeks after we filed MTR and got a copy of the decision. Filed EAD and AP renewal this July.Got EAD and turns out they denied my AP based on the previous 485 denial in May and didnt even look that they have reopened my case in June. So fighting with USCIS Nebraska center on that right now ! Too infopass and the Immigration Officer is supposed get the information corrected on my file and get my file reopened for AP. Really dont think they look into their own notes or paper work even when issuing denials.
Feel free to PM me if you need more information.
Thanks,

Hi,
Many posts on this thread suggest that there is no H1B type visa for nurses and so they have to come on only greencard; and that is why Health lobby is trying hard to GRAB 90K unused visas (note: I consider this as a grab because from skill/CIR bills; we are trying to recapture unused visas and make them available to ALL EB immigrants rather than allocating them to one special group). But according to this news item on immigration-law there seems a non-immigrant visa H1C available for nurses. Is this true? am I misreading this?
==========news item follows==================
02/13/2007: DOL Announcement of Processing of H-1C Labor Attestations
The Nursing Relief for Disadvantaged Areas Reauthorization Act of 2005 took effect December 20, 2006. The Act reauthorized the H-1C nonimmigrant nurses program, a program originally created by the Nursing Relief for Disadvantaged Areas Act of 1999. Under this program, eligible hospitals file attestations with the Department of Labor, Office of Foreign Labor Certification which, if approved, will support nonimmigrant worker petitions filed with the Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. The Department of Health and Human Services has informed the Office of Foreign Labor Certification that the same hospitals eligible for the original program continue to be eligible. These were listed in the Department of Labor's Interim Final Rule implementing its portion of the H-1C program published on August 22, 2000 (65 Fed. Reg. 51138). The Employment and Training Administration, under the authority of the new public law, is reinstating the H-1C labor attestation program and is accepting applications by qualified hospitals. Eligible hospitals should be advised that the now-expired OFLC form (ETA 9081), Attestations by Facilities Temporarily Employing H-1C Nonimmigrant Aliens as Registered Nurses, has not been authorized by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for current use. However, the OFLC will accept applications using the expired form until a new form is approved by the OMB. The attestations are made enforceable by the 2005 Act. ETA is in the process of revising the form under the OMB clearance process, and taking other appropriate regulatory action. Once approved by OMB, employers will be required to use only the new form.

My wife never been to US and I am married for 2 years now. I have been filing my return as Single.
Last week I talked to IRS and they said I can apply for her ITIN without her being present in US. The condition of visiting US applied to other dependents and not for the spouse. She has to sign my tax return though that I have to mail it to her and she will mail it back to me with her signature.
Not sure how true is that and I don't know if I should give it a try or not.
Thanks.
Yes, that is correct. In fact spouse, child or anyone else, who you are claiming as dependent needs an ITIN, it does not matter where they live, or if they ever visited US, or have any visa to visit US.
