Friends,
I have had 10+ members sign up so far.
This is as important as the fund raising. The same group of contributors cannot contribute all the time, please join the effort to bring more people in by signing up in the Membership drive. Just email me at jay@immigrationvoice.org so that I can send you a 5 page pdf document to get your started.
More members means:
Bigger organization.
More funds to pay for lobbying.
More faxes and emails to congress when the time comes for grassroots advocacy.
Thanks,
Jay.

Thanks, yes our last names were different.
I told the postman.
Its been more than 2 weeks and I didnt get any response from USCIS after updating the address.It still shows initial review.
Does anyone know how long it would take for the USCIS to resend the card?
When i filed for my EAD card, they returned my card and I had to open SR by calling 800 number. I received card after 1 - 2 months time frame. Again with USCIS each case is different so hope you get faster.

Hi,
I received an RFE on my H1-B application this year with the following questions. My H1-B sponsorer is currently discussing with the attorneys to better handle this situation. I would appreciate if someone can respond me how to handle this scenario properly.
Following are the context from the RFE document.
---------------------------------------------------------
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is in receipt of your Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker (Form I-129). Additional evidence is required in order to process your application:
Y ur company provides IT Consulting services. The record does not establish where, when, or for whom the beneficiary will work. USCIS regulations at 8 CFR part 214.2(h)(2)(i)(B) provide that an H petition which requires services to be performed in more than one location must include an itinerary with the dates and locations of the services to be provided.
Submit an itinerary of the work sites the beneficiary is assigned to, to include specific dates, locations, and the name of each work site where the beneficiary�s services will be delivered.
Submit a letter from each work site that identifies the name of the project and beneficiary is assigned to, the name of the vendor through whom the beneficiary�s services are provided, and whether the work site has the ability to assign the beneficiary to a different employer. Each letter must provide the address and telephone number where a contact can be reached.
For each of the beneficiary�s work assignments, identify the succession of consulting or staffing businesses involved in the assignment of the beneficiary to each ultimate work location. Include the related succession of contracts and work orders. The contracts and work orders must provide the address and telephone number where a contact can be reached. All contracts must be signed.
For each of the beneficiary�s work assignments, submit a letter from the business with ultimate control and authority over the beneficiary�s work. The letter must address the title and duties of the beneficiary�s position, the minimum education requirement for the contracted position, and the name and title of the person who primarily supervises or will supervise the beneficiary at the work site. This information is necessary to determine whether the actual duties to be performed under contract for an end client are duties associated with the specialty occupation sought.
If the beneficiary will work on an in-house project, submit evidence describing the in-house project, the length of time the beneficiary is expected to work on the project, team members assigned to the project, their titles and duties, and invoices showing the sale of the product to your customers. Explain the qualification necessary for the project and how the beneficiary is qualified for the project. Provide copies of client contracts with details that specify the in-house project name, location, definite starting and ending dates. All contracts should be current and include signatures and contact information from representatives of both companies.
This kind of H1 RFE is common this year. Employer needs to send the end-client letter for RFE.

I moved last week but told my roommate to accept this mail that I was expecting from Immigration.
I guess she removed my name from the mail box.
Today I went online to check the status on my EAD and the status says the card we returned as undelivered and they asked me to call customer service to update address.
I'm planning to go online and get my address changed .
Should I also call them to inform about the address change?
Is there any other way I can get my EAD card rather than wait till I update my address?
Can I change my address over the weekend? If I have to call them after changing the address online will the customer service be available over the weekend ?
Thank you.

So USCIS will never see the flowers becoz they are boxed.. and they will never get delivered becoz they are being routed from the airport itself. No major news media covered the few deliveries at USCIS.. What was the point of the campaign again?
For those of you who is interested in one line Q/A
"Is the flower campaign working? Yes"
"Are we good enough with what we have done? Not 100%"
What happened
We were at the loading dock by 10 30 am ( Delivery estimate was between 11 am and 1 pm) and DHL appeared to
have already delivered around 50 boxes once around 9 am. All the flowers we sent are boxed . The visuals will
be boxes and not flowers in the evening when the youtube video will be uploaded. UPS delivered nex. We got the
video of the whole delivery and so did the CNN-IBN/Voice of America folks. There were around 30 boxes or so from
UPS. Next Fedex delivered and there were around 10-15 boxes coming out. While we were doing the recording one of the
officers politely told us not to capture federal buildings and we told them that we were only capturing the delivery of
flowers. After this what ever truck was coming in, they were reversing and pushing back into the dock so that the
delivery cannot be taped. CNN-IBN reporter asked for permission to go inside the loading dock and she was promptly
denied any permission. Then We had a down pour for almost 20-30 minutes and we had to leave the place.
It appears that the S&H dept now knows that most of the flowers are being delivered by DHL/UPS/FEDEX, they are taking
care of the diversion at National airport it self.
In the future if any one wants to do a flower campaign, Please select 2 local florists
(only two florists, in that particular city) and have people call and place orders/online. That way
we can talk with 2 florists and track their delivery easily for picture/video. Every one who tried to call
FTD/proflowers had alot of trouble getting any thing out of them. Actually, we cant blame them because they
are not doing it locally,instead they are putting their orders via national carriers.
Where do we go from here
If people really want to go out and get the main stream media attention, DC is the perfect choice. How ever,Don't plan on a weekend. If we do it right, we could be live on TV and the whole country will ask whats going on, along with the law makers. That will offer a platform for solving the issue at its roots.If you really want to do this, Dont come up with reasons like I dont have time off for a day or I have a project due. I can understand if 1 or 2% of our active members say it, but when 98% of our active members say that I can understand what it is. May be its time we figure out whether we prefer anonymity and pontifical verbatim on the online forum to expressing our concern/disappointment openly. Do not get offended and start flaming me. Just my thoughts.

Bear in mind the following
You dont need to pay any tax in India for money that you withdraw from your 401k for only upto two years after you return back to india. (your are no longer a nri and the 2 years is the buffer)
For any money you withdraw after 2 years, you need to tay tax in US (which shouldnt be a lot if you withdraw little by little and you being non-resident of usa) and also pay tax in india (which could be quite a bit)
If you have GC then you can take out ur 401k in 2 installments (because u have RNOR status for 2 years) and file tax as a resident in USA (because of GC).
If you don't have GC then please take all ur 401k in one shot in the year you leave. Otherwise you'll pay 10% penalty and then 30% tax to USA because you will be a Non resident as for as US is concerned in the next year.

Replacement EAD means replacing lost EAD, and only 1-year EAD will be issued. Most people apply for EAD renewal, which is OK for 2-year EAD.

Some of the salient points concerning legal immigrants in the CIR bill in its current form:
1. Bingaman amendment caps the EB green cards at 650,000 which includes derivatives like spouses.
Comments: Previously we had 290,000 for EB green cards, but we also did not have the increased number of H1Bs and the new guest worker category H2C which is around 200,000 every year and soon they will be eligible to apply for the EB green cards which essentially increases the number of people eligible to file every year. not sure when H2C workers are eligible to file for green cards. I think H2C applicants for green cards are exempt from cap till 2009 (Pls correct me if I am wrong). Can expect a significant relief from STEM applicants. Don't know about the cap for Family based applicants
2. STEM applicants exempt from cap even if they have not been working in exactly the same discipline as their STEM master�s degree.
Comments: It is VERY essential that this part of the bill be preserved in the upcoming debates for the final version since one significant relief from derivatives being exempted has been removed thanks to Sen. Bingaman. Don't know how the derivatives of STEM applicants are going to be considered.
3. No hard limit on countries. Soft cap protects visa numbers from being wasted by their downward flow.
Comments: This is definitely going in the right direction but I still feel the exemption of derivatives and STEM provided the biggest break for EB based applicants
4. File I 485 even if priority date is not current.
Comments: Provides relief where spouses can't work and can start using AC21 provisions.
Looking at the above provisions point #2 is very important to all EB categories because this is the one that provides most relief from the cap of 650,000. If anyone would like to add to these comments pls do so.... I might have analyzed certain provisions incorrectly.
And finally congratulations to all volunteers and contributors to IV for a job well done!

hi All,
I didn't find any topic on this so asking a question in a new thread.
I got my GC last month. My company has some problem and requested to take pay cut (50%) for next 3 months. Will this effect my Green Card. I came to know that I should get the salary mentioned in the file at-least for next 6 month after getting the GC. Is this true?
Please help me, I have to take decision ASAP.
Thank you in advance.
There are several forum threads explaining 6 months being the good-will time an employee should stick with, but if the company sends you out with proper relieving then it is not your fault.
One suggestion would be to ask your mgmt to provide proper reasoning in your relieval so that you can find another job outside and shift.
You have GC so you can do anything :)

Hello Everyone;
I recently posted a thread on our buying house expereince, while that was chapter in itself, there is another one that has recently opened up. Allow me to elaborate;
When you buy a house ( as most know) lender sets up an arrangment with Title company. You actually pay for the expenses and title company carries out the work. So as part of the paper work, this title company was assigned to put together, they sent me a copy of the whole deal for my records. Now, the person who was handling the package at title company, sent it to the address on my driver license. Happens to be that right next day from the date of closing, I left this place an moved into my house. So when the package arrived via Fedex, their was no-one their to claim, so the Fedex guy left it on the door step. After more than a week, the title company contacted me via phone asking about why I haven't signed up those documents and sent back. Surprised I asked about when they sent and to what place? that's when we discovered that the package was delievered to wrong place. So I asked them to ask Fedex to go fetch the package and send it to my new address. So now Fedex reported, that the package is gone! ... I contacted apartment office and no-one turned in such package. I called back the title company and informed them about all this and complained about loss of personal information. I asked them to pay for identity protection program, which they have refused.
So my question is what legal course do I have to ensure they pay for my ID protection. I am really furstrated with the way these people do work. Instead of accepting negligence they are refuting my greivance. I have never hired a lawyer nor has taken anyone to court, but feel cheated.

Hello Folks,
I have a very urgent situation and would really appreciate your help.
Background :-
H1-b holder through consulting company A, filed for extension in Dec 2008 and got approved in 10 days for a valid duration till Nov 2011.
I was working with them on client projects through-out, and have valid pay-stubs until May, and possibly even June.
But I found a full-time job with a small company, who also filed for my H1 transfer. The application packet received USCIS on May 26, and they sent an RFE which was received by us on June 1, along with the Receipt notice. The RFE was for proving my duration of stay outside the US, since my lawyer put that time towards recapture. In hindsight, I should have asked them not to, but what's done is done.
Anyways, my documents have been received by USCIS on Wednesday, and I have no updates yet showing up online.
I have to leave for India on Saturday for my wedding next weekend.
My possible scenarios :-
1, Case status online changes to Approved, I can travel to India before receiving the approval notice ?
2, Case status is still pending, they need more RFE. In that case, can I ask my new company to provide the RFE when I am in India ?
3, Case status approved, I wait for a couple of days before I get my I-797 approval notice, that means I will have to change my travel plans. I really can't put it off, since I am traveling for my wedding next weekend.
Can someone advise ?
My travel to India is definitely happening, but can I go and get my visa renewed along with my wife, and come back ?
Thanks, and keep up all the good work.

If you read the rules closely, the employer is attesting to the fact that the job will be readily available at a future date. So as long as the employer issues a letter attesting to this, there is no issue. If you do indeed move prior to the six months, make sure you amend your H1B for the necessary changes (eg location)
Confirm with the co lawyer also.

I am speaking from experience. Download the forms needed for filing 485, EAD and AP. Then when your attorney send you his/her set ( normally they do this in 2 stages - one they will send you a draft copy to verify and correct all info - some have online questionnaire; stage two - they send the final forms for you to verify and sign again - this they may do paper copy or online PDF - that cannot be edited - not fill able forms).
So, here I am providing links to all forms that I know are needed. These from uscis.gov site are fill able. Weekend is coming. Fill them, and print and keep them.
When attorney sends papers, compare yours with their and do corrections in theirs ( usually it will have stamps of the firm)
Application To Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status - I-485 (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-485.pdf)
Medical Examination of Aliens Seeking Adjustment of Status - I-693 (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-693.pdf)
There is a supplemental 693 also for vaccination records.
Biographic Information - I-325 A (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/g-325a.pdf)
There are A, B, C and other versions. I filled A
Application for Employment Authorization - I-765 (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-765.pdf)
Application for Travel Document - I-131 (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-131.pdf)
Affidavit of Support - I-134 (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-134.pdf)
I completed all these forms with 100% correct info- still the Paralegal - made mistakes again and again ( I can't correct the PDF as Adobe PDF writer is 1800 USD). I lost ONE precious week. Hoping to file on 06/01/2007, filed on 06/08. Learn and be wiser from experience, yours and others.
