Other Airlines are no good either, I have had much bitter experiences with other Airlines. Air India is much better and I always travel by Air India.

RD - August 16th 2007 - TSC processing - August 30th 2007
PD - Dec 2004 EB2
Hopefully 3rd time lucky eh
Just an observation - There always seem to be a gap of 2 months between Receipt date and Notice date.
So for July 2nd filers, there notice date would be September 2007. But they all got GC last yr when they made it current till 2006 PD. However processing times arent Sept 2007 even now which makes me believe its the receipt date?
What do you guys think.

Changing F1 to GC law to make it legal has as much chance as getting law change to not include dependents. I would rather support the latter then support F1 to GC law change
I do look beyond my own situation and thats why i support current spillover rules and filing 485 without current PD issue even though it does not help me directly in any way what soever and if fact is dterimental to my EB3 case.
Can you say the same ? C
Can you support an argument to give 50 k dv visa to badly retrogressed category irrespective of preference category?
Fact is You are the one who cannot see beyond your own selfish needs and you are accusing me of the same thing you are doing
As far as i know the whole MS F1 visa is a big scam and loophole to enter us and stay here when you are not supposed to and that is the loophole that needs to be closed first instesad of worrying about fruad porting and EB1 fraud. Closing thsi student GC loophole will clear up the whole EB retrogression mess
Yes, I support excluding dependents from quota.
If you look at IV's agenda, most of the items benefit EB as a whole. The idea is to reduce number of people being part of quota. If you think in these terms, you should not have any problem in supporting "Exclusion of STEM grads" from regular quota.
I support legal porting of EB3 to EB2 even though its detrimental to my own case. So I am not selfish like you call me :)
As for your stand on MS F1 visa, you remind me of "rkay". He too makes nonsensical statements like you. If there was an violation of law, USCIS would have known it and plugged the loophole. If you have found some "loophole" that USCIS doesnot know, let them know.

Go for another M.S. to maintain F1. It doesn't have to be a phD.
In that case I would say go for PhD. Directly file GC under EB1 - no hassle no retrogression :)

If it is just a name change from maiden to married (i.e. change in surname) you don't need a court order. All you need is your marriage certificate and a notarized affidavit to change the name on the passport.
Hello,
I am also trying to go through the process of getting my spouse's name changed. I got good information from all your posts, but I am trying to understand the order of steps to be followed:
So,
1. Place ads in newspapers in US and India
2. Get the local court order
3. Mail all the required docs to respective Indian Embassy in US along with court order
4. Once passport received with new name, use the court order and passport to change names in SSN, drivers license etc.
5. Once all of them are changed, send all copies to USCIS (New name will be applied with next stamping and for now we ll still carry old and new passports pinned togther)
Please let me know if I am missing something and any details if possible.
Thank you

Here is the problem
-- Grass root & state level efforts work only when there are a lot of grass root workers. For example independence struggle in india worked due to grass root efforts. But please try to understand that things are different here --- by definition, we are immigrants, our numbers are limited in this country.
Simply put, groups working in isolated corners of the country are having no effect on the politicians, because each area has only a few people and the politicians are not seeing the combined effect.
"Grass root efforts" may sound very trendy, but are actually leading us no where............yes we need it......but at the same time IV has to have a strong leadership who can show their strenght by doing phone / lettere campaigns.

04/10/2007: USCIS Updates 2008 H-1B Cap Status as of 04/09/2007 - Surprise, Surprise, and Surprise!!!
Somewhat very good news. It turns out the total FY 2008 H-1B cap cases which they received are not 150,000 nor 133,000. The total number is 119,193. Accordingly the odds of winning in the lottery will be only 2:1.
For U.S. advanced or higher degree cases, they only received 12,989 and the H-1B for these people is still wide open and they can file the petition now.

I will contribute $25.
How to contribute? I have a regular payment going out to IV. How to ensure this one goes to this separate bucket and not mixed with the general contributions.
If this has been discussed in the middle of this thread - please consider updating the first post with the info so that we don't have to dig through pages of discussions to find it.
Puddonhead,
I am still in process of finalizing how to collect money for this. I and Pappu are discussing possible solutions and will come out with something soon.
Please vote above to pledge. I will go through this list once account is created to follow up.

As per my ex-attorney I-485 receipt date holds edge over the PD....which is stupid to say the least....ideally it should PD FIFO but then again USCIS is anything but sane...
The 485 processing date is slower that India's 5 year plans...especially at TSC....
Also RFEs that some of my friends got are not so simple...one was asked for continued pay slips to show no break in job or in betwen jobs....had it been just a EVL things 'd have been much simpler.
In any case no RFE can be addressed and processed within 30 days...so anyone getting an RFE and who falls within the window meaning PD current will loose a chance....since in all probability Oct things will move back again....

I would suggest two things:
1) Fire her and let her know the reason. If possible show her the video, that will definitely scare and embarrass her. You cannot undo what she did to your child but that will teach her a lesson and hopefully prevent her from doing that to another child.
2) I would highly recommend sending your child to a reputed daycare. Ofcourse your child will not get personal attention like home, but that ensures the safety of the child. There are other benefits of a daycare like - social interactions, personality development, fixed routines, curriculums, and above all they are trained professionals.
Give it a thought.
Good luck.
Hello guys,
Sorry for this non-immigration related post. We have this sudden, tragic situation that I wanted all of your advice on. Thank you for your time in reading this long post.
We had hired an Indian nanny in NJ who, we learnt after hiring her, is here on a tourist visa. We were paying her $350 per week cash, which is the standard rate around here for nannies (incl. citizens and people on GC). We had liked her when we met her in response to an ad on Sulekha, and we thought an Indian nanny would be good for our first child. She has been with us for about 3 months, and we were intermittently not getting a good feeling with her for some reason. We finally bought a small security camera and installed it yesterday. On the very first day with the camera, we came home and saw the recorded video to find that she is violently hitting the baby on two separate occasions. Needless to say, it has shocked, angered and extremely saddened us. I showed the video to a couple of friends and even they say it is unbearable to watch. This was just the first day of recording and it pains us tremendously to think what all may have happened previously.
She is of course not going to stay with the baby alone anymore, but I want to know what legal options I have to penalize her to the fullest extent, so that she does not do this to anybody else�s small babies. She it seems had come here last year and taken care of someone else�s baby in Hoboken, and I can imagine that their baby also went through this. (This woman and her husband are a ~ 35 year old couple, who have a multiple entry ten year tourist visa; both come here for 6 months every year and work odd jobs like this. They apparently got a (unsponsored) tourist visa after showing a lot of landed property in India).
I specifically want to know if I will have potential problems if I go to law enforcement about this- regarding have employed her (both of us are on H1B visas). I know we have made mistakes and should have done better due diligence in this, and there cannot be any more punishment for us than seeing our 8 month old � who cannot tell us about it when we come home- being beaten on the tapes. We saw this yesterday and have not told her yet. We want to weigh all options before we proceed, but from today onwards one of us is home all the time till Friday. Any advice or opinion is sincerely appreciated. Thanks for reading this long post. And, to all who are thinking of nannies or have one, please learn from our mistakes and closely monitor your child�s safety every day.

IV in 5/2006:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=948&highlight=manager%27s+amendment
About 4000 members, 2800 of which had not contributed anything, and even then IV managed to pull off this amazing feat.
This amendment was PASSED although the CIR bill failed to survive.
In other words, if there had been a bill only to address EB GC reforms, there was a great chance YOU would be able to file for your I-485 even if your PD was not current!
IV in 11/2007:
1) IV has 25000+ members.
2) The EB GC reforms proposed and passed as an amendment in mid-2006 are long overdue!
3) IV has gathered a lot of admiration and attention after the flower campaign/ SJ Rally-> leading to the July VB reversal, and of course the DC rally!
Even if 2500 of them pay $50 a month, IV would have a steady flow of $125000 a month for lobbying efforts.
Just imagine what IV could accomplish in the next few months, if only people realized how important it is for them to sign up for monthly contributions!
Think about it!
Thanks!

While, I have not made any analysis on this or do not have any basis, I just reiterated what unitednations and others have written before.
From my perspective (once again, this is just my thoughts), it looks like a slowdown or apply hard country limite for highly subscribed countries maybe a result of a lot of factors like, job market slowing down (2001,2002), complaints that immigrants are taking local jobs, consulting companies selling labors, falsifying resumes to INS or DOL (java programmer actually working in restaurant), people not getting paid prevailing wage, benching etc..... While a comprehensive reform is a good solution to retrogression and all h1bs are taken as serious immigrants, underlying issues need to be fixed before a comprehensive reform to retrogression is there. A lot of loopholes being closed and strigent rules being enacted, change is some laws that don't make sense, understanding the industry needs, issues with wage and tax issues, are things that can be happening behind the scenes (this is just what I think), in addition to backlog elimination and overflow of applicants in an overburdened system.
Once again, it is just my thoughts, which I think explains the patterns to why unused numbers are not flowing to over subscribed countries. Please correct me if I am wrong.
While job market seem to have picked up and demanding, there seems to be a need for flow if talent and that is not happening due to the problems that need to be fixed.

I am surprised to see that you don't know what ROW is.....
P.S.
I apologize for this utterly useless posting, but I really wanted to use the word 'macacay', the sub-continentalized version of 'macaca'
I don't know a lot. I understood retrogression last month although I have been waiting for I-485 application for 1 yr.
I also don't know RIR which I saw in your posts, I think.
Thanks for picking on me. Never heard about macacay. Actually, I had never heard of macaca until George Allen used it.
Please explain this sub-continentalized version preferably with URL.
There is nothing more to do. So useless posts are the only posts that will be there.
