Since the beginning of this century, USA has been a leader in innovation, technology and products & services. In contrast, there is total inefficiency and red tape in government departments dealing with immigration (is it because '?them').
The immigration issues revolve around the DOL, UCCIS and DOS etc. They should grow and mature, showing efficiency and productivity. For that a new mindset is needed fortified with human resources and budget appropriations. My labor clearance was stuck in SWAs and backlog centers for 3 years. I talked to the SWA officer in charge in my state of CO. He said, this is federal work and there is no money appropriated.
Here is the showcase of how the USCIS works on legal ALIENS(from reliable Ombudsman report):
FBI Namecheck status (pg. 37 of the report)
As of May 2007, USCIS reported a staggering 329,160 FBI name check cases pending, with approximately 64 percent (211,341) of those cases pending more than 90 days and approximately 32 percent (106,738) pending more than one year. While the percentages of long-pending cases compared to last year are similar, the absolute numbers have increased. There are now 93,358 more cases pending the name check than last year. Perhaps most disturbing, there are 31,144 FBI name check cases pending more than 33 months as compared to 21,570 last year – over a 44 percent increase in the number of cases pending more than 33 months.
It is easy to see how border fence, employment verification, Border Control, DOL, FBI, USCIS will TOTALLY fail when you bring in 12 to 20 mil. I see no hope, eihter for anybody. No wonder, many are shouting at the top of their voices voicing strong objection.

Hello Rayyan,
Thanks for coming forward to help this cause. Your contribution, words of support and enthusiasm helps everybody to maintain higher level of motivation which is so important for this kind of volunteer effort . Thank You.
We also need more active members in Miami as it is a huge city. Would you like to take up the responsibility to post the flyers in Chinese/Indian/Philipino stores or other places where people from these or other immigrant community gathers? Or maybe simply send out emails to send the same message to your friends. It is ok if there is any constraint.
Again, Thanks for your support.

Thank you WaldenPOd. I am a pharmacist and I am always extremely bz with my work and two kids. but my wife is actively participating in this effort. She has already posted flyers in Indian store and restaurant. I will ask her to post it in Chinese and other store.
She is actively sending email to friends and relatives to join IV. Also, we are planing to visit universities around our area during this weekend and post flyers
.Let me know what else I can do.
Thank you guys for your brilliant efforts :)

People I am trying to introduce the contents on a new thread
Pappu,
I appreciate your input, but IV members have been talking about numbers and numbers and numbers for last 2 years in a row.
What will the numbers reveal? I had been a regular blogger at IV, but I stopped coming up here because.
1. All talk and no Walk
2. New members come aboard, are rude and offer no pragmatic approach.
3. All these bloggers give ideas and critique each other.
4. What happened to the March1 09st rally in DC?
Why has IV not taken a pragmatic approach, don't take me wrong I respect what you have done and other approaches in the past. But IV is using same approach for a new problem, the end result-----Failure
I joined this community after july fiasco, and have kept close watch on dates, everyday members keep suggesting something or the other. I don't mind being a donor to IV or contributing little what I have, But I need to see some big movement and results.
I did all the stupid calling to congress senators
Did sending of letters to the White house
what was the result? If IV wants core members and new members to donate and be a part of something bigger than a website, then please initiate something big like a rally.
Just because their are less members to join, does not excuse a true purpose of a rally.
Some of core members of IV keep telling other members:
1. Join your local chapter
2. Be a donor,
I understand all this, but I as a visiting members and the people coming on here, want to see a true and real reason to be a part of IV and not just a website where immigrants come and breathe out their frusturations July Fiasco turned to be advantageous to a few members, but was a mistake for members like me and other members who could not file at that time.
Please prove me wrong and IV to be something more than a website, please initiate something big and real, and not just comments. I an aware of the achievements in the past, but it was past 3 years ago. For last three years immigrant's feelings have been played around too many times. Same old talks will not bring upon a change, SOMETHING BIG NEEDS TO BE DONE NOW BEFORE THE CIR BILL takes place. So people are more aware.
Show us IV core is more than words! Conduct something bigger that will attract new members and donors to this organization.
I as a professional can tell you all now--- passive movement, sending letters, long term planning with no actions will not help
People have left IV, who are so disheartened and believe this organization has lost its eedge and is all talk and no walk above all a money scam.
Prove them wrong and do something big, above all Practical

No, we are not going to abuse this and we won't be sending stuff over and over. But stoppers have a very Specific significance: to educate and differentiate between legal and illegal. A stopper says "Stop the reverse brain drain"...A stopper would pique people's interest becase we are typically lumped in with illegals, and a stopper does not exemplify what illegals are. Illegal immigration's message is: "legalize us and help new guest workers come", our stopper says "We are already legal and are already leaving, fix this before we all leave"
Actually, many Indians with US Citizenship are leaving too. What I have seen with my friends and coworkers is that, the moment they receive the US passport they book a flight to India and come back when ever they please. If media picks up that fact, then what is our strategy?

Chandu,
Although you bring up interesting discussion, but these stories about Neelima are really old. Dec 2005 ?
Did you see anything recent on her ? Any updates ?
As for handling these situatsions being diplomatic is best but that is easier said than done.
Also, I think we are much more likely to face these types of problems with small companies which are in remote areas.
Big corporations are much much better. I have been lucky in this regards that I have mostly worked with big corps.
These companies actually go to extra lenghts to appreciate diversity.
In fact last year in my current client Indians organized big Diwali festival celebrations to
give American people a chance to enjoy Indian food and learn about our culture.
Its not all bad. There are some very very good facets as well.

Treat the letter as a template, and feel free to make any changes.
Txs
Can you make modification to the letter, like Hr5882 has passed the sub-commitee and waiting for the approval in the next phase.
also this bill is for Skilled legal immigrants only and has nothing to do with the illegal immigrants.
One benefit of passing this bill will also boost the economy as skilled legal immigrants will be in the market to buy new homes (clrealry mentioned in the statement of Greenspan).
last time is sent this letter to senator in Ga, he replied back in regards to increasing the number of H1B..Yeah he replied for h1B and he wrote a long email. this time i am going to clear his confusion..

I like your word: "guestimate" (Guess + Estimate) i.e. tukka (hindi word)
Well, I don't think I am at the end of line of 300,000 people. There must be lots and lots of people whose priority date is after April 2004 might have filed. This includes 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007.
So I think 3 years is intelligent guess. But who knows I am just trying to make myself happy and trying to stay positive.
:)
My understanding was that once the 485 is filed, you go by RD. It doesn't matter what your PD is...
Does anyone know what the legislation is?

This can create fights amoung us. This is like divide and rule.. It did work in the past,. so we must make these guys do EB2 and EB3.
BUT they bring some very good points.
EB3 will go nowhere unless we act. Very Correct.
They want to do something and looks like decided with a plan.
There is a chance many EB3 Indians getting influenced as they too dont see any hope and there is nothing happening from IV in last 1 year except one or two in last 1 week.
Writing to service centers is a new idea even I didnt get so far.
So are we seeing these guys very soon in white.,. lets see.

Few months back, 2 DMV officers gave me a tough time in CT. I wrote strong complaint and got a reply that, it will be allright if I go again and I went for the 3rd time and got it without hasstles.
Here is what happened
Dear Mr. XXXXX,
This reply is in response to your email of 5/20/06 in which you
describe
the difficult time you have had in obtaining a CT license. Please be
advised that if the documents are not acceptable when you return you
may
ask the Sergeant or Supervisor to complete a form for 'Review of Non-US
Citizen Documents'. In this process copies of your documents are
forwarded to our Branch Operations Division for further review. You
will
be notified of the outcome by mail.
Thank you for taking the time to write and bringing this matter to our
attention.

Subject: Documentation for obtaining a CT drivers license
Respected Commissioner,
Ralph J. Carpenter
DMV, Connecticut State
Greetings,
I hope this email finds you in good health and best of spirits.
I am a new resident to the State of Connecticut. I am on a h1b visa
(Skilled worker visa) and have been in the United States for 6 years.
My
employer is based out of Irving, Texas and I am employed fulltime with
them. My company sends me on work assignments to various clients all
over the United States. I recently started on a work assignment at
Pitney Bowes located in Shelton, CT. All this while when I am in United
States, I have worked in the states of Georgia, New York and Washington
and have obtained drivers licenses from all these states. I have
maintained legal status and always carry my documents whenever I
interact with a govt agency like DMV.
From the time I have started my work assignment in CT, I have
approached the DMV twice. Both the times I was turned back saying that
my documentation is not acceptable.
First experience:
DMV, Bridgeport, CT:
Issuing officer wanted a document from my employer that says that I
am still employed with them and have not switched employers. I asked
the
officer polietly if there is anything she is expecting to see in the
document (in terms of information like kind of work, nature of work,
place of work etc...) and she was very kind in explaining to me that
all
she wanted to know was if I actually work for the employer who holds my
visa. I told her that I will come back again with the letter.
DMV, Hamden, CT:
After obtaining a employment letter from my employer I chose to go
to DMV, Hamden, CT because it is close to my home. The issuing officer
looked at all my documents and then told me the employer letter was
unacceptable because it is generated by a computer. I asked him what
document is he actually looking for. He said he cannot accept a
computer
generated document. I was confused. Then he showed me my employer
letter
and told me he cannot accept it because it is printed from a computer.
I
told him it is generated from the computer so whats wrong with
employment letter generated from a printer connected to a computer. I
understood what he was trying to say. He just had concerns with the
validity of my employment letter.
Nothing wrong in having concerns about validity of employment letters.
He was just not able to express that to me. As I have the habit of
carrying all my documents, I showed all my legal documents like LCA
(that I am working in Shelton, CT) , my h1b documents etc... to make
him
comfortable of the fact that my employment letter is indeed valid. But
at this point he just did not want to listen or see anything instead he
kept arguing that this is CT and rules here are different and he would
not see any documents or papers and he only wants an employer letter.
And I told him that is right in front of his eyes. He says he cannot
accept it because it is a computer generated document.
Then I asked him what he really wants? He argued that he wants an
employer letter that is not a computer generated document but a actual
document. Then his collegue came to his resque and told me that he is
actually looking for a document that explains clearly the reason I am
in
CT and details of my work location from my employer etc... I asked him
to write it down in a piece of paper what he actually wants. His
collegue wrote down in a piece of paper that an employment letter
stating my work location as Shelton, CT is what they are looking for
and
I can get my out of state license transfer once I have that document. I
wanted a official letter from the issuing officer stating what they
really want and they were not willing to give me that. So I asked him
again what he wants next time. He said he wants a letter from my
employer that I am working in Shelton, CT and work details etc....
Dear Sir,
There is a lot of confusion over the issue with actual
documentation required. The best thing to do to check validity of h1b
visa holders is to actually ask for recent paystubs and w2 forms. These
forms have employer names and if any H1b visa holder. If the issuing
officer has concerns with documentation validity of a h1b visa holder,
then the best thing would be to have a employment background check done
or look at paystubs and w2 etc... Or specify what kind of letter they
are looking from an employer so that they can be convinced that the
candidate is a valid visa holder.
Though I will be going back to the DMV sometime next week with letter
they requested for, I felt it is my duty to suggest to DMV a good
source
of validity for h1b visa holders.
Dear Sir, Connecticut is one of the most beautiful states I have ever
lived and I am enjoying my stay in Connecticut. H1b visa holders are
skilled workers and we assimilate into the society while we contribute
what we can and work hard to maintain our status and are on a tough
path
to obtaining permanant residency.
Please treat my suggestion as a welcome suggestion and make it fair to
both the employees of DMV and non citizens as to what they or we can
accept and what not.

All fellow desis take care and enjoy your life here - life is too short to be depressed about the green card everyday. Most important thing is you stay happy everyday - here or in India.

It seems like e-file applications are getting approved faster because these 14, 25 days are not matching with current I-131 processing times shown in the webpage.

This will be a class action lawsuit which means that all the people who are in the same class as the plaintiff will get the benefit of the favourable decision. Now on whether to file or not, it is an individual decision but most of us have already prepared for the filling so there is no harm in going ahead with the filling. The worst will be to file again but nothing more than that can happen and as I have heard most of the attorney will not be charging again when people will be refiling their cases. So better to file your case and let USCIS reject rather than feel sorry later on if the judge rules in favour of the lawsuit.

If I file today, how can I be in the same class with a guy that filed on the 2nd before the new bulletin came out ?? This is where I don't understand.
I think is more for them to get a lot of people affected thus give the lawsuit more weight and also to justify the billing.
As for whether competing for visa numbers is fair or not, of course is not...

Hey Guys,
This EAD thing is really annoying, my wife got her AP and EAD last 11/21, with immediate update in USCIS.gov. I'm still waiting for mine, and I'm the principal. Anyway. I'll have an infopass appointment on 12/18. My H1-B permit expires on 02/07/08.
We applied to NSC, all documents received on August 02/2007.
My RD at NSC was 07/02/07 and my EAD status changed to "production ordered" just 5 days back(still dont know when I will get it). I think NSC is taking upto 5 months from RD to process the EADs.

Your point is very much valid, But ok lets for a min assume H1b is eliminated completely. Do you think these big IT firms or even small consulting firms stop doing their business ? No. if not H1B there will be other way bringing ppl for short term. they will be some other way to do it. H1B is not designed keeping us in mind its designed keeping US Citizen employers in mind. and also it is adding to USCIS revenues. if you see even in current fiscal year i have seen all of my friends who did premium got thier H1b approvals.
The reason i said H1B outsourcing will start is most H1's are held by Big IT firms of India. If they do some thing that will hurt it they will do something else or reduce onsite avail or make it short term there will be some other workaround but no way these jobs will go back to americans.
Key point we have to argue and keep on doing it is the fact that , drawing a comparison between us and illegals. Even illegals have marched on streets and expressed their concern of not leaving USA if so why we paying millions of taxes adding source to housing market and GC in a valid stage , should ever even think of losing it ?
Exploitation is there everywhere. Illegals are being legalized for US employers but this will have disastrous consequences. Now with illegals only working behind the hood and will come out and did these americans ever thought of what will happen to all the ppl who work in restaurants etc and their wages. Yes all desi companies does the same thing becoz thats the only they can be in business. If you see many reasons why corp america is against merit based sys is there is no way its associating it with TIE-UP of h1b with them.
I dont know about others but saying 50% of h1b can be done by americans is lot easier to say rather make them work like that. I 100% validate your point as every system has its pros and cons. I would say rather 30% only.
But key point is we are already here . We are in the process of GC and its the key point that is to shed away ppl who are trying to shut doors. Corp america will some how take care of H1B i think [ even though its part of our resp] but key point is GC .. Eliminate or atleast reduce backlog to atleast where it was.
when it comes to laying off , many companies have laid off in 2000-01 , some are unlucky and most americans becoz of reducing fat in the company there used to be lot of benefits everything got screwed up . But rather they again started hiring but not left and right as they did earlier but very calculated decision. I am talking about Big comp not consulting. Consulting is mere consulting they wont bare the costs of H1b if they are bench more than 3 months even big 5 consulting .
