Ok Logiclife, i did not intend to start a war or anything of the sort. I was just giving suggestions in light of the fact that inspite of IV working VERY hard, nothing is happening on the GC front. That is the ONLY reason I put up this post.
One more thing. You mentioned that a lot of people are not contributing, maybe the reason is that not everyone wants a GC that desperately. Some people are fine with working here temporarily and then going back after making some money. Besides some members who have contributed in the past may be wondering if it even makes sense to contribute again, being that there has been no real progress on the GC front since Dec 2005 (the birth of IV). Now do not get me wrong I KNOW how hard the IV team has worked and how many time we came SO SO SO close to getting our dreams realized in the Senate only to be crushed in the house again.
My point was, maybe it is time to face the facts. The government has changed but the basic attitude towards the "immigrant" is the same. This is because the average American, views immigrants as a threat. Now we can argue all we want on that statement, but in our hearts we know that the "AVERAGE American" would rather Not have immigrants come to the US (legal or illegal). In light of these events does it not make sense to ask for simpler goals? Goals like 485 filing or H4 Eads etc. Sure it makes us look weak in front of the anti-immigrants, but then are we here to solve our problems or to prove the anti-immigrants wrong?
Lastly this was NOT a threat nor was it intended to be a Threat that "take my advice or i will leave". Just a simple suggestion in light of things to come.
I know you are not threatening to leave. But eventually some one will. It always happens when one or other item is included or excluded from agenda.
Anyways, this isnt about looking weak or strong against anti-immigrants. That is really not the issue here.
Its about how much we can have in our list of items. There is only so much anyone can do. Forget about us, even bigger organizations have priorities in order. Immigration Voice also has to have a priority. We cannot talk to anyone about fixing the H4 issues before the issues of retrogression are talked about. And we cannot talk about ALL OF THEM because there is room for only so much to talk about. There is a limit on everything. Limit on how much funds we have, limit on how much political capital does our lobbyist spend on our organization with lawmakers, limit on how much leverage the lawmaker uses to sponsor an amendment for us. No one has unlimited capacity to get things achieved. So in that sense, H4 issues really cannot be on the list. And as far as "nothing is happening, let's get temporary relief and let's not fight for more numbers" idea is concerned, we are already doing that by trying to get 485 filing provision done in next few days as a temporary relief. Now tell me, how is that not tied to H4s. EVERY SINGLE ITEM on our goals benefits H4 spouses indirectly. Including the short term goals of IV.

Yes, that is right, I said �plight of EB2-India�.
"... and if not, India is a great country and provides enough opportunities for any skillset !!
I wish more people shared this thought and even better did this rather than just say to vent. And the GC line would have been smaller.
Lets not waste time blaming others rather work on upligting yourself and if you think you are capable help others too. If this was your once-in-month harmone reaction, please pardon my preachings. But than this is the only country where you can attain goals and dreams that are un-imaginable anywhere else. So if you have been categorized in EB3 think about how to migrate to EB2 and same for EB2 to EB1 or into some other category ( family etc.) that can help you attain your goal ( assuming GC is the goal at this forum, presently).
And I like to remind myself, if you comment on others be ready to be sermoned. Hope you all will be kind. Peace be with you.:)

One of the approaches can be for state chapters to be involved and solicit donations from local members. I liked the idea for donations from immigrants who have already obtained green cards and online ADS from google as long as we do not overdo it. I am leaning more towards funding drives. For reasons that people in the process understand better than I do, I agree that the amounts cannot be disclosed. Hence it would be nice to have offline discussions or discussions on PMs on targets between state chapter members.
I for one am not for monthly payments or memberships. That just makes for exclusive organization and we want to be more inclusive.
I also had another important question we need to ask ourselves. Do we want to solicit funding or donations or participation? They are two very different things. Participation is not limited to monetary involvement but can include time and ability (designing banners, websites, writing letters et al.) donation.
Cheers

We received the RFE for the Td vaccine that was missed somehow by Concentra. But since she is nursing now, we were able to get a blanket Waiver for her.
Sameet,
I know it is a weird question. But I'd still go ahead and ask it.
What documents that USCIS expects for a scenario like this?
My situation: My wife still hasn't weaned off nursing completely.
My child is 1 year 3 months old. My wife got an RFE for TB test.
Plus she is in India currently.
Would sending the birth certificate of child be enough to prove the existence of 1 yr 3 month old child? OR would USCIS requires doctors's input also? OR do they require anything else to prove baby is still being nursed.?
Thansk for your response,
GCisaDawg

Just because a large number of IV members are EB2 Indians (based on the comments posted) doesn't mean that we should ignore the interest of EB3 ROW or EB3 Indian/Chinese.
Any talk about moving visa numbers from EB3-ROW to benefit EB2-India only divides us therefore should be despised. Let's focus on the real issue (supply & demand of EB visa in general) and serves the interest of all people suffering from this.
However, everytime someone talks about giving visa numbers from EB3-ROW to EB-2 India/China as the ONLY freaking thing in the world to do, I have to point it out to them that they are talking taking those visa numbers away from ROW-EB3. And that my friend, is not in the interest of ROW-EB3. Nor does it benefit India-EB3, or China EB-3.

It took me around 4 years. EB2 India, started as a scientist later physician and endless headaches ...... but its over now. Got my card yesterday. Its an amazing stress relief and confidence booster.
I could have tried EB1 too but wasnt sure how it would turn out hence stuck to EB2.
PD Dec 2005, EB2, RD for 485 Sept 2007. Welcome notice August 5 2008.
For some odd reason I got a red on this forum. I dont know who did that and why. But I dont care.....
For those who are waiting: Keep pushing and thinking of new ways of making this work. if you are EB3 try to become EB2 and even EB1. In the end all that matters is getting the card.
As regards this forum. I never contributed but found this to a good source of information.
bye bye:)

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)

Please see the response from the senator in the following link. It has pending applications by category.

Do we know if this is for I 140 or 485 or both ?

In ac21 law; it doesn't say anything about the scenario if 140 is revoked by employer. It is totally silent to it.
AFAIK:
AC21 is not a law, just a guidance. Assume an immigration case goes to court hearing, the judge would completely ignore AC21 guidelines. Any employment per AC21 will be considered unlawful in this case. The probability of a case going to court is not very common though.
The above is just FYI.. You can google for more info.
AC21 is a law. AC21 Memos issued are guidelines that IOs are supposed to follow. E.g. If one IO issues NOID if I-140 is revoked and another denies I-485 directly then the latter needs to explain why he/she chose to not follow the memo. In any case, there should be consistency across board to follow AC21 regulations.

You raise a very valid point.It is not as if these consulting companies are subsidised by the US govt to provide welfare to poorly qualified aliens - these companies are surviving and thriving in a free economy.This tells me that either (a) these consulting companies do a good job for their customers, despite the "cooks", "maids" and "servants" posing as software engineers or (b) There is a large enough demand for these skills that the clients cannot find enough qualified locals to hire on a full-time basis; hence go in for these "body shops".
Now, the unfair practises that these consulting companies indulge in are legendary - I am not here to defend them. All I am saying is there is an economic vacuum somewhere that is being filled by these body shops - something that Dobbs-ian minded folks will not acknowledge. Ands lets face it, a lot of our spouses on H4 would not have been able to work if not for these desi companies willing to sponsor an H1. Now whose fault is it that in 21st century america there are laws that condemn these people to staying indoors ?
It is obvious that the article is overblown and made to sound like all immigrants are surviving on the munficence of the american welfare state -typical anti-immigrant stump speech. Whatever their pros and cons of these desi companies, lets leave the drum-beating to these anti-immigrants. Because their solution - stopping all immigration - does not work for us, to say the least.
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?
