During the last comprehensive immigration reform bill that fell apart there was an amendment to give citizenship to people who are fluent in English withinin 4years of thier permanent residency. It could come up again if there is another comprehensive immigration bill. Just wishful thinking at best right now.

I have a question,
Could you please provide how to get in touch with these political people and how to get their time and explain them? Do we get an appointment?
Also draft of letters to provide them as a refrence?
An Agenda when we visit them?
If you could please provide these guidelines, we will know what all needs to be done and anybody interested would do it.
Please visit Senate.gov to find your Senator and House.gov to find your house rep by ZIP code.
Then you can call them up and fix an appointment with their immigration representative. Generally they may have a date only 2-3 weeks later.
Once you have got a confirmed sate, please contact user StarSun, who will provide you with material and information on what to discuss with the law maker.
I tried calling and setting up appointment with our local senator and congressman hack even their associates. I was told that they have too much on their schedule to meet with me. I guess:
No vote = No Value...
Could you let us know which district this was for both? There is a chance a few law makers out of 500+ may not be sympathetic to our cause. In some cases we could change that, but this is the reason everyone else needs to keep trying with other senators and congressmen.
A modest suggestion:
Talk to lawmakers about the redundancy of the Labour Certification and the Quota processes. Explain it this way. An employer needs someone for a job. They advertise the job, and find no qualified Americans for the job. They get the Secretary of Labour to certify that there are no Americans for the job (BTW, that's what a "Labour Certificate" is...it the US Department of Labour certifying there are no Americans qualified to do your job!).
Then that company, who has a need for an employee, needs to wait up to 10 years to hire someone permanently for that job (that's the Visa Number quota system). This is horrible for business productivity.
Yes thats a good point that labor certification seems a bit redundant after the H1 process.Increase or elimination of country quota and a points/skill based system are also one of the longer term priorities of IV. Some of these may fit more into a comprehensive model as the changes would be large. For piecemeal recapture is a simpler option.
IV has a predetermined set of suggestions to improve skill based immigration, including most of the above, which would benefit all immigrants. Will post a link shortly.

I personally do NOT think that giving DV numbers to EB will make any difference to EB3, because once EB2 is cleared up there wil be more EB2 people out there to consume visas and there will be no spillover.
Having said that if this bill goes through then it will most certainly give GC to EB2 people even those who have a priority date of 2011 and also to people in India who are planning to come to USA in thee next few years or so and who know enough of US immigration to know that they have to file for GC in EB2 category
I will not even raise the point about providing a part of the 50 k visas specifically to EB3I because lets face it EB2 are the elite and deserve to have priority in visa allocation.
Facts: As of 2007 there are 54,850 application pending in EB3 india category and as of 2007 there are 13,150 application pending in EB2 india category

Hello All,
I found a unique way to cope with the stress of our immigration nightmare.
I always feared that this long wait to get the status issue settled would kill the entrepreneurial spirit that I have. The burning desire to do my own thing.
I have been trading stocks for the past 4 years or so now but just recently got interested in PDT - Pattern Day Trading (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_day_trader) (Clickable)
I have found it very interesting as well as rewarding in terms of fulfilling the urge to do something more than what I am doing right now.
It is not easy and it is not for the weak hearted but the rewards are wholesome and tremendous.
I would like people who are interested to "PM" me or post replies here so we can exchange ideas
IMP NOTE: Trading stocks is a type of investment so It is perfectly legal to do so. You do not even require an EAD to do so .
No doubt that if you do have EAD you can trade as business entity as well.
Last but not the least
Do not forget to to keep the momentum up at IV and do donate to IV as often as you can .
Now lets Play !!!!!:cool:

Is this IV approved? Please do not jeopardize by asking for things using IV letterhead/interface that have not been approved by the IV team............. There is too much at stake for the people who are still in line for GC (let alone citizenship)
I think there is no hard in doing so. Its part of the overall agenda.

I think current mad rush is because of following reasons.
1) Atlease 35K new H1s filed because of H4-H1 conversions. This is because of retrogression and H4s waited longtime to work and so they are desparate to work. We can eliminate this if we have I-485 filing provision without visa number availability provision of STRIVE act. These people deserve it until there no solutuon to Retrogression.
2) 70K visas are filed by Offshoring/Outsouring firms firms. This is where the actual problem is. They won't send all of them whom they file. They will unnecessarily waste all these H1s after getting approvals. I know so many visas are wasted by Satyem, Wipro, TCS, Infosys, Accenture and all other offershoring/outsourcing firms every year.
3) 15K-20K by US educated students. These are deserved to file.
4) 10K - New H1s for real projects needed by clients. These are also deserve to file for H1.
So, here the problem is Offshoring/Outsourcing firms who are abusing the law by filing and not sending all of them. I can definitely say 85% visas filed by these firms every year are wasted and they won't send all these employees whom they file. They are using this H1 as seat reservation in a bus/train. They only send very few and waste so many visas every year. In all these firms, i know so many employees are having H1 stamped and waiting to come here. But those companies selects very few and send them here. If at all we need any reform in H1B, then it is here by not allowing H1s from these Offshoring/Outsourcing firms. Then everybody will be happy. These firms can use only L1 for their company needs so that H1 won't be abused.
Also, first point, we can solve by passing the curent version of STRIVE.
So, we need to oppose this new H1B reform and make to sure that Congress passes STRIVE act provisions.
Any thoughts from my friends?
Let me guess. You have a friend or a relative in the H1 que. And this H1 applicant is either getting education in US or is not going to be an employee of a consulting firm.
Second guess: You have a US degree or you are not working for a conslting firm.
Why do you think the spouses on H4 do no deserve H1? If they want to work, why do you think that they should not compete in the job market?
BTW, the companies you are cursing, TCS, Wipro, Satyam etc., it is possible that soon the H1s applied by these companies will be exempt from numercial limit. Yes, you heard me right. Here is a bill that would make companies providing scholarships to undergrad and grad programs to be exempt from H1 numerical count. This is not a joke, read for yourself: :p

Dude,
I am not sure which point u did not like. For me they help every one in the line waiting for gc.
Having a tolerable time ensures that USCIS processes all the applications they receive in reasonable time. Eliminating renewals reduces lot paper work, money, time and energy. If this is considered as unacceptable I do not know what one should expect. I just wrote what I think is meaningful. If have a better idea, please feel free to comment. But stop commenting on other. That will only spoil the good spirit of the members in this thread
I am not saying that I don’t like your suggestion.. They already started issuing 2 year EAD. Where are you all these days...
:D:D:D

02/01/2007 21/30 p.m.: Senate Passed Immigration Reform Bill Today
The Senate passed today Fair Minimum Wage Act, H.R. 2 today. The House passed this bill, H.R. 2 and the Senate debated the bill for the past several days. In the process, hundreds of amendments had been introduced on the Senate floor. The Senate floor then agreed to a lot of these amendments. One of these amendments which the Senate had agreed to and passed as Division B of the H.R. 2 is the Immigration Reform bill.
The immigration reform bill was introduced by Senator John Kerry and agreed to by the floor unanimously. The immigration reform bill that the Senate passed today covers a lot of the provisions which were part of the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2006 which the Senate passed last year and failed in the House.
We will analyze the bill and report it step by step for the next several days. Please stay tuned to this website....

My Co worker a Canadian citizen was applying for GC under EB2.
Our company's lawyer screwed up and applied his labor under EB4.
This is big big big problem as his TN visa from canada cannot be renewed as its given on a non-immigration intent and he cannot apply for green card this next month as he has to restart the whole process(labor) again.
Can he apply for PERM using the old advertisement?
What are his options?
Any help would be much appreciated.
