I have a thought! How about fund raising events....members with some talent can really help here...hold an event (such as a concert...i have heard of some talented classical singers or classical dance performers from India giving concerts for a fee of a few thousand dollars in university auditoriums or other cultural venues) with all proceeds going to IV, or sell some services (such as IT services, accounting services, or any other high-skill talent that might otherwise cost a lot), etc. Say, someone wants to sell something on eBay, how abolut selling it and donating the proceeds to eBay. This way, we might be able to contribute more funds by performing some activities that we already have the talent for.
come on people, among such qualified and educated folks as the members of this organization, can we not find some skill in us that can be used to raised some funds?
What do people think?

Hi,
Today I met an attorney..
Any thoughts??
My Friend I will pray for you and your family.
All I can say is pray to Durga Ma and she will protect you and your family.
All friends from IV have given you good suggestions. But my friend take cash out of bank and keep some liquid cash or safe with a friend whom you can trust, you cannot believe/trust these bunch of A** H***S.
Keep faith in God and give some support to your wife and kids, do not get dis hearted, all you can finally do is file for bankrupcy.
Good Luck to you and GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.

IMO Volunteering and contribution are not separate. It's member buy-in. Either you agree to a principle or you don't. If you agree, you'll contribute as well as volunteer (when you can). If you don't agree, you don't.
Very well said!

Hardwork of immigrants is the bedrock of American society. If seen in that light it makes perfect sense. "We deserve," this thought also ties into the Pygmalion theory. That is the American way. This is not a collective but an individualistic society, unless you showcase your achievments they won't be fully acknowledged. Unless you show that you deserve nobody is going to give it to you.
On another note, I give my example, I changed my job last year and relocated. I don't work for a consultant either. My earlier priority date was Sept. 2002 but I was willing to make a move and not be held hostage to retrogression. I knew it would be tough and many of my friends on H1-B thought it was a bad decision. Atleast, now I won't regret not making a decision. This maybe an isolated example but my old employer hired two American workers to replace me. Maybe its because we work harder or maybe because its both, smarter and harder. As JFK said,"We want to go to the Moon not because it is eazy but because it is hard." We deserve as much as born citizens if not more based on our contribution to this great nation of immigrants.

Logiclife,
Great reply, very professional to an uncivilized human who took the liberty to use F word and you still maintained your calm. And not only that, you never revealed who the member was so that he/she doesn't get blaster by other members.
This is just one of the many obstacles core team has to face on the road to victory. Keep up the good work core !

H1b_Alex,
It looks like your post has met with resentment on the forum. Let's look at it openly and see if you have a case here.
1. The company gave you the i-797 to come the the USA which means they applied for you with USCIS.
2. They said they had a job for you. USCIS checked with DOL and agreed and approved the application. At this point you are their probatory employee.
3. Do you have any documentation (on legal letter head) showing the the company (employer) asked you to report to work on a certain day? If yes, positive!
4. You said you paid H1B fees. How did you do that from your home country? This is a negative since you broke the law.
5. You land here, assuming on a good estimated date based on when you were asked to report for work. Now, the employer (company) does not have a job for you. This is totally fine in the eyes of USCIS/DOL and US Law.
6. The only responsibility of the employer is to now to pay for the cheapest air fare (if air required) to send you back to your country.
Ofcourse, filing a lawsuit can be done even if you are not here but being here obviously helps A LOT when fighting such a case. However, chances of quick resolve=30%. Chances that you will win= 20%
The reasons are simple and outlined above. Sorry but your chances are slim. :(
Came to USA on H1B, paid for the H1B fees(at that time didn't know it was illegal to do so)
however after coming here , Paid for my own ticket and landed here on start of january 2011.
Confirmed my arrival to the employer too. Since my leaving the home country there has not been any mail correspondence from the employer , though i have been writing many. Talked to him over the phone and he said he wasn't responsible for my arrival as he doesn't have any project for me. Waited to get another job as a H1B TXFR but stuck with trnsfrs issues due to non availablity of paystubs from him.
I never reported to work as he said dont come to office, dont have any paystubs, but have all my H1B papers , I97 and Employment offer from that consultant. I have decided to leave back to my home country but not before reporting this blood sucker to DOL.
I need to clarify a few things before i nail these blood suckers
1. How long before i board my flight back home , should i send the documents to DOL
2. I have the originals of H1B filing and LCA and I94, are they rquired in originals
or copy to send to DOL
3. What other documents should i send alongwith
4. Do you think my case will get weaker if iam not here ? As i am flying back to my home country.
5. I dont want these suckers to go scott free, so how to build my case here , can i ask the DOL to recover my wages for 4 months i wasnt getting paid.
I do not care if i get any wages or not from them , but i really wanna see the locks on the gates of this company. They shouldn't take H1B and its applicant for scapegoats.
Any advices are welcome to help me bring these guys to justice.

Friends,
I did a quick search and did not find answer to this. Apologise if this is a repost.
But a co-worker of mine wants to travel on AP. After coming back, he will join my company (right now he is a contractor) as a perm employee on H1. Is it possible and allowed? Can he transfer H1 after using AP?
Our company attorney confirmed that his H1B will remain valid even after using AP. But she is not sure about transfer. I will post her reply once she gets back to him. But in meantime, if anyone has any idea about this, please share.
Given the fact that everything is driven by I-94, including your status and your proof of legal presence, I think this may be true. However, I have not read any experience of anyone who came back on AP and then filed for an H1 transfer. Most people who want to continue on H1 have not used AP (so far on this forum, I dont know about everyone ofcourse) and they have gone thru the pain of getting restamped in consulate abroad.

I have started taking printouts of the instructions and handing it to people - hoping that will increase the probability of them calling.
Great idea. Thanks for doing this. As we know from our admin fix campaign, our own members sometimes do it as soon as you hand out a hard-copy!
Also folks please don't feel shy to speak to these reps or their aides. On the other hand, please know that they respect you a lot for taking the time to call them and let them know what you feel about an issue.

If the Repubblican Senators will confirm its vote, the Filibuster will be impossible.
We will have 9 new senators, 7 dem, one Ind, and one repubblican.
Except the senator from Montana, all the news dems are favorable for the CIR., as well as the Indipent one. I don`t know about the new senator from Tennesse.
Also Kyl was talking about the original plan from Mc Cain (who will be a runner, which means that he needs the latino vote)-Kennedy, the one passed from the senate was little bit different. Let`s hope for the duck in anycase....

In the other FOIA thread, the letter from USCIS says that they cannot identify the country of chargeability until the application is adjudicated (may be pre-adjudicated).
May be these 125,000 are pre adjudicated cases and they might have lot more un processed cases where they cannot identify the application as Indian.
If my guess is correct, I am royally ....

He is not talking about Indians, rather he talks about H1b in general. Since India does not have equivalent social security system, US Govt and Indian Govt did not sign any contracts. Other countries like Canada / UK / AUS have mutual agreement between them and US for transferring the social security paid in US to be transferred to their home country if the alien returns to the home country.
Even Indian Govt (P.Chidambaram) I beleive is working with US Govt to get these SS paid by Indians who have returned back to India. Since the US system and Indian system does not allow with the current rules and regulations to transfer the amount, it is stalled. may be down the line even India would work with US to get these amounts back.
I heard something like this, but not sure: If you decide to move back to India, you can fill out a form and submit to INS/IRS which states that you will never come back to US for any reason. If you do it, they will pay your SS money back. I dont know anymore about this.
I agree. this kind of slander should be fought. Not only SS, but Medicare, Unemployment, and Federal state and city taxes.
Besides getting benefit from taxes, we cannot avail of any of the other benefits (SS, Medicare, Unemployment)
A lawsuit should shut them all up, and also show we are not weak or helpless.
We are not slaves, and unlike illegals do not have to beg for mercy. After suffering the entire immigration process, to hear lies like this should not be taken lying down

Company A applied for my labor and I140(approved and Active currently) in 2005. Moved to company C in April 2007(H1 transfer), applied for I485 using Company A's EVL in July 2007. I got a 485 RFE now for EVL. Can I now say that I have used AC 21 by sending relevant documents or should I send EVL from Company A?
Forum Gurus - I got a denial letter on my 485. I am a July 2007 filer and applied for AOS in July 2007. My 140 was revoked by ex employer in August 2008 and immediately I got a NOID from USCIS and responded to it in a timely manner and my case processing resumed.
But now, I got a denial stating that my 140 has been revoked in August 2008 and thats why my 485 is denied. My Attorney is filing for MTR and says it is a mistake on their side and will be resolved through MTR.
It just baffles me that the person who sent the denial letter never looked into the system to see my case trail and blindly issued the denial notice. My Attorney says, it is very much possible that they do not look at RFEs or responses - they just issue denials when they browse through the 140s.
I am EB2 India with a priority date of March 2006. I think some kind of pre assessment is going on. There are no LUDs and mine is at the TSC.
Is there anyone else in the same boat? How long does it take for MTR to get processed?

I believe once you use your AP for travel , you automatically comes EAD. If you are working for same employer with H1, then employer may have to inform uscis above status change (no big deal . i don't know if all employers are doing that) i don't think you can transfer your H1 after travelling on your AP. If you want to be in H1 status again all you have to do is leave country , get H1 stamped if expired and come back again. You will be in H1 status.
please check with good lawyer.
