Guys,
How about start or finish the rally with US National Anthem ?
This will get a lot of attention. Above all it will show 'Legal Immigrants' different + communicate a lot.
Also encourage to get more American friends.
You can have a beer after the rally !
Good Luck.
This is a perfectly Gandhian idea:-) (He did that in South Africa)
Let's do it... the beer part should be postponed to some other time... presumably after all categories become C:-)

Does it matter whether the 485 is employment based or family based? I have a valid H1 (not stamped) and have just applied for adjustment of status (based on marriage to a USC) and AP. When I return from the planned travel, can I continue working for the company that I am currently employed with?
My H1 is valid until Q3 of '09.

Wear comfortable, yet smart clothes. Remember, we'll be marching for a few hours in the mid day SJ heat!
We also request you bring some yellow or white flowers to hand out.
Bring water, snacks and sunscreen
Bring friends and family
If you can, print out some IV flyers to hand out.
But most of all...
Bring good humor and smiles - this'll be fun!:D

Seeing your postings gives me hope of getting GC this time.
Irritated with the lack of transparency and pathetic Customer service.
Created SR :- std reply blah blah.. under review..wait for 60 days.
Twice talked to IO :- First time response.. we are working on your case..
second response :- As per our info on my screen, it is not yet assigned to IO and neither pre-adjudicated. One person says one thing and another says another thing. I do not know what screen they are looking and how they are pulling info. What is the point of puting CSR if they have half baked info or worse no info on where the case is.
Have infopass appt late next week. Guess another garbage collecton day..:-)

what makes you think i have a website and I evaluate?? Moron, I was asking the person to get the documents evaluated and let other know, so that others who are in same position can benefit from that.
Have you ever seen the Moron in real life...go and see the mirror. I have asked you the website as I didn’t want to assume and your name 'Sheila' resembles the Sheila from an evaluation agency. She used to say the same thing – ‘Ask your attorney to get it evaluated’. Obviously you didn’t want to answer my question. Still I was saying ' I was suspecting'.
Now do you understand Who the real Moron is.?

Nixstor,
It is important to do the homework and choose the school that fits your needs, if you want to get into finance or marketing or... go to a school that is know to be good in that field, you will still meet many people in other fields but the majority will be in the field you are interested on.
BusinessWeek website is good for reseach, but don't limit yourself to that.
http://www.businessweek.com/bschools/04/index.html
Getting accepted is the most difficult part. Once you are in you can pretty much say you have the MBA. The GMAT is literally a pain, many of the questions are tricky and you need to learn the tricks.
Try to go to a name school, you are investing enough money not to go to a school that is not going to help you move a step ahead (through the name of the school or through the people you are going to meet). I have a friend that goes to a no-name school and they just accept anyone so the friends you make are definitely not that ambitious.
NOTE: the CEO of my company (6K employees) got his MBA at Wharton (he's a PhD as well) and he hired as CTO one of his friends from school.

I know the post was entirely wrong and foolish.
But I feel that I am in the dark about IV activities for the past one year.
I am one of the silent IV Supporters and long time (from the beginning) monthly contributing IV Member.
It would be better to have a special thread/monthly bulleting page from IV to tell the members to know about IV activities or progress.
After the last year July fiasco issue I have not seen any posting about IV activities on the web site other than lot of threads and could not able to figure out the work IV is exactly doing.
I strongly believe because of IV core team only we were able to come through successful in July 2007 Bulletin issue. But do not know what else is IV doing for the past 12 months.
The Flowers, Letters and Phone Calls is not working as we expect. I do not know about other activities other than sending letters and phones during every congress session.
I believe IV need to do some thing different. There is no media reports about legal immigration issue (not for IV) for the past one year.
My perspective is that we need to find a way that Media and Public will aware of the issues we face every day.
I am not questioning the IV Core Team. It would be great if the IV members know some details about IV activities every month in a bulletin or thread etc.

A lot was said above but some basic things still need clarification.
I do believe that I HAVE THE RIGHT to get my LCA adjudicated in 2-3 months time (OK, make it 6 months, having in mind you are dealing with an inefficient administration).
I do believe that I HAVE THE RIGHT to know in short term (2-3 months, not 3-4 years !) if I am eligible for permanent residency.
I do believe that I HAVE THE RIGHT to know how long (if approved) will take the I-485 process.
These are clear, simple questions that require clear, simple answers. Getting these answers (NO is also an answer) in a reasonable period of time is a right, not a privilege...

For diversity they have GC lottery. Having per country limits in EB categories doesnot make sense
from the July bulletin
Region All DV Chargeability Areas Except Those Listed Separately
AFRICA 35,500
ASIA 7,750
EUROPE 23,000
NORTH AMERICA (BAHAMAS) 12
OCEANIA 1,800
SOUTH AMERICA, and the CARIBBEAN 2,500
Unless they reject/disqualify 30k Africans and close to 20k Europeans I don't see the diversity here. Notice Asia, the most populous continent has a measly 7k. But thats a different argument for another thread.
I think increasing the total amount of visas per year is what we need.

1) We can go back; need not pretend if we think we have the brains
2) If you go "your GC misery is over". After that "A new beginning for you and this society"
3) If you don't go back you don't lose credibility. You just prove that you want to live here no matter what. Eveyone has the right to make his choice based on what works out well for him/her
4) For those who voted "yes" I think they know what they want in life and why they are here. No matter what the conditions are here or anywhere they will make the right choices instead of expecting someone else to control their lives.
The counter point is "Lobbying is not the only path to our freedom and independence"
Like you mentioned pointing out people and there posts is not required ( if you think that is a smart threat and expect people to backoff) because everyone can search every post of the other person if they want to do so.
FOR ALL THOSE WHO VOTED YES - IF WE HAVE ENOUGH NUMBERS WE CAN CHARTER A A380 OR TWO DREAMLINERS ONE FROM THE EAST COAST AND ONE FROM THE WEST COAST WITH STOPS IN DIFFERENT COUNTRIES TO DROP OFF PEOPLE. IT HELPS US, AIRBUS/BOEING AND THE "NO" SAYERS WAITING FOR THEIR GC'S. THIS WOULD BE FOR SURE A BIG EVENT IN THE HISTORY.
I am not against IV and its goals or against any views or opinions of people. It is a free world, but if we want to pay a price for that we can do so in many ways. e.g. Waiting for GC.
I don't think you will understand this but i will give a simple explanations...
it is not easy for people to pack up and leave when you have family/kids assimilating in the system (forget your "status" for a minute - people living here don't want to move to a different town (forget state) because their kids are in school) <<< this has nothing to do with how brainy you are (in fact it will be stupid to just pack up and leave). Oh and not to forget... i want SS/Medicare when i retire, i paid for it ;)
However I can guarantee you 80% (if not 100%) of IV members with PD < 2004 would have return if they had to restart the process of GC (too late for that we all have 485 applied and AC21 is around the corner ;))
And to answer your question about brain drain... it will happen if immigration is not fixed, if it takes 10-15 years to immigrate then people with naturally opt to get out of here before they are neck deep (like us 7-10 years) in the system.
But really Please Please Please do set an example by going back for good... I already explained the net result of you going back in my previous post ;)
Request: Mods I think this stupid thread does not belong here, please delete it... gjoe can take his agenda some place else to rally some support (perhaps in some anti-immigrant website).

Juist to prove the original posters point about IV being intolerant about different points of view and the trigger happy attitude of some members about giving a red dots just because someone else speaks his point of view - I got a very personal and abusive remark with a red dot just for my post above. Not that I really care about Red or Green dots. My GC journey is over. This forum helped me a great deal when I was waiting for my GC. Now I am hear to help others with what I know in their GC pursuit and help with any on going action items. Just wish some members here would grow up and learn to live and let live! :)

Well Said! I support you 100% and agree with you totally about this. Fraud is any program is unfair and unjust on everybody, including the H1 holders themselves.
Actually, not all he said was wrong.
We should not support what these IT consulting companies are doing with H1B programme just because we are on H1. These big companies are hoarding H1B visas so they can have an upperhand when dealing with the employees.
My own employer was trying to get as many H1s as possible without having ANY work for them. They sent us all a few emails asking us if we had any family or friends back home who want to come to US on H1. These guys make the H1 applicants pay for the application expenses, then just keep them there or get them here and keep them on bench and almost everybody here is familiar with what happens next.
Think from an American's point of view.. It is THEIR country, THEY make the laws that benefit their society and economy.. they have all the right to stand up against these practices by foreign based companies..
I like his statement "H1B is supposed to be used when there IS a job but no American to do it" What these Consulting companies have turned it into is "There is a person on H1B avaliable If and when there is a job to do" OR worse "There is an H1B holder available, on bench, but no job to do"
I totally support reform in the H1 process with a target to reduce fraud. That will ultimately benefit people like us who will come here on H1B in future.
Please don't fire me for taking his side, I'm not. I'm in favour of market deciding what it needs, but I'm 100% against fraud, and all of know these so called consulting companies ARE indulging in fraud..

My struggle is long and daunting
Making it more and more frustrating
Life at times seems uncontrollable
Flowing with the time unstoppable

Sometimes I think of going back
Try to gather the courage that I lack
But the world I left is not the same any more.
And the world I am in, has lost its lure.
I am on the crossroad of my life
One is forward, one is left and other is right.
I don�t like the choices shown
May be I would have to create a world of my own

Thank you for your elaboration.
How do you know that all the unused visas go to EB3 before go to EB2?
Even if the immigration reform happens, will it take effect next year or sometime later? How come my PD can become current immediately once the immigration reform happens?
thanks
as soon as the president signs on the SKIL bill, it will become a law, and uscis will implement it within 24 hours. However, regarding your point about PD becoming current immediately: since many MS degree holders are in EB2, their PDs will become current immediately. So uscis will be able to move EB3 very fast. If it doesn't happen immediately, it will happen within a couple of months.

Promoting family unity by allowing more people who are already eligible for an immigrant visa to efficiently use our legal family immigration system.

Your points from 1 to 5 point the same thing. They drive down the salary of H1-B and other citizens. They have many undue advantage and its high time L1 be capped and restrictions be placed.
First thing, I'm not trying to divide L1 and H1 here. IV is for H1-B and GC processing and some L1 (genuine L1) and not for L1 in its current form.Whats going on in L1 is blatant abuses.
I dont have problems with genuine L1s who wants to settle down and apply GC. But 90% of L1s, just come for 1-2 years, take away jobs to India, drive down wages and never interested in settling down
The wireless company I work for, used to be a huge employer for H1s (primarily contractors). Now thanks to TCS and its army of $1 an hour L1s, slowly they are terminating contracts and giving it to L1s and shifting jobs to India
High time, they stop L1s. Wake up and see around

The wireless company I work for, used to be a huge employer for H1s (primarily contractors). Now thanks to TCS and its army of $1 an hour L1s, slowly they are terminating contracts and giving it to L1s and shifting jobs to India
High time, they stop L1s. Wake up and see around

They do care about employees. They just can't handle immigration and visa issues. It is too complicated for a lot of employees. For a lot of employers, the term H1b visa or sponsership gives "jitters".
While a lot of employers look at things from their perspective, they do understand all issues that you face. It all depends on how important you are and if your absence would make a difference. If you are irreplacable, and employer thinks they must keep you at any cost, then they will do it, or you have to take care of yourself.
Thanks, you are right. It's like the water bucket analogy. Put your hand inside the bucket, and then take it out, and you won't see much difference in the water level. That's how expendable we are to our employers.
