I am not sure if it is only me.....but many times I see strangers wishing me or each other morning, evening...."how u doing" ,,,etc....
but Indians (I am also an Indian -:) are a little reserved....I do not see a greeting from fellow Indians that easily.....again I am not saying Indians are bad (cause I too am one -;)
maybe it is a culture thing for us not to greet strangers ?
PS - I have had my share of experience where non-Indians are also sometime rude me to me .....

My Wife got her EAD Last year. But she didn�t file for her SSN and we filed tax on her ITIN. Now she has her SSN how can we claim for Stimulus Rebate .

We are in the same boat, and I came across this forum via google as well. We are Canadians living in Texas - my husband has a SSN (H1B) and my daughters and I have ITIN's (H4). This is blatant discrimination and is infuriating to me.
I am happy to join the group to get something done. I will keep my eyes on the board for further action.
Thanks to everyone who is spearheading this.

Do you have I-485 pending? If yes, I94# is not significant. If you don't give A#, USCIS will issue RFE or fix themselves looking into database - which my delay processing.
I94# is used only when A# is not available, e.g. students applying for OPT based EAD for first time.
Thanks.
Also should I attach my photocopy my OPT card also or just current EAD card is sufficient?

sagar_nyc, agreed. EB3 is a joke and even worst I have become a joker in front of all my friends who applied in EB2 cheating the system. Funny is, experience wise, I am well ahead of all those making fun of me but...:-(
too bad, eb3 does not even have a place to vent these days as IV forums and its thread only has discussions from EB2 members.
anyway, best of luck to everybody. the world is not fair, I am willing to fight my part to make it fair and just for all.
This has really become a joke.......EB2 India had 3,341 applicants in March-2005 and it has moved to OCT 2005 so that means 6869(from March-2005 to Oct 2005) EB2 nos are available....how is that possible (based on the 7% of 140,000 divided into 3 cateogories which is 3200 each for EB1 , EB2 and EB3) ...whereas EB3-I only moved to Nov 22nd ....come on give me a break.....THIS IS ABOSOULTELY BULLSHIT.....

I am in almost exactly the same situation as you... I wonder if this can be done as well... On the other hand, as long as AC21 and EAD are prevalent (as long as we can indeed get 3 yr EAD) it is atleast not as bad for us...
I pity the poor guys who could not file in july for whatever reason and are stuck in EB3 with a later PD
Yeah agreed...atleast we r lucky in that sense. But looks like now EB3 is not going anywhere. I might be wrong but till I dont see some good movement in EB3 category I choose to remain pessimistic...

It is way more complex than that. Graf was literally abandoned by the GOP, no money at all. The GOP even came up supporting a GOP candidate on their own against Graf. I don't think your conclusion is correct, because Hastert, Sensebrenner, Tom Tancredo and many others against CIR won by large margins.
From what I have been reading, conservative voters want to punish the GOP exactly to teach them a lesson and make them more active from now on.
I think for those who can benefit from the amnesty bills, it is time to celebrate !! Hurray !
Looks like the Leadership of the house is changing.
Interestingly I heard one of the republican commentators comment that whatever happens, including if the republicans lose there will be a change in the house minority republican leadership, he was putting forward people like Pence and Shadegg as the new leaders(they have been pro SKIL bill). In other words, No Hastert, No Sensenbrenner etc in the committees.
Interestingly in the districts that republicans ran anti-immigrant platform, they lost badly. One of the bellweathers districts for that in Arizona, Candidate Graf(who got the republican nomination by his very hard anti illegal immigration platform) lost heavily to a democrat who is pro CIR. There are many more such examples (Sen. Santorum is another example). Thse results bode well for legislation as long as the issue comes up for debate again in this congressional year.
Who knows, now the house republicans might even be willing to consider it in the lame duck session, as atleast they will get to have some say in it. Will be interesting in the next few months.

why didnt ur friend apply for MBA in canada?....i think a lot of people have misconceptions and pre-conceived notions about canada.......they think of US as the best and canada does not even figure in their list of options......i have got fooled once into h1b to US unaware of the broken immigration system.......wont happen again......i believe the ones in US on h1b visa from india should spread the word about the pathetic EB 2/EB3 india scenario so that no one else gets lured into US by h1b candy
Yes it was his first lesson. Yes US is good but not for EB2-I/EB3-I. I was also fooled when I came for my MS before. Not anymore.

Ombudsman,
I think I have asked this question to you before..
If you want to sound credible with your daily "Reality Bites", first disclose the following:
- which is your country of birth
- what stage is your GC in
- EB1, EB2 or EB3
Also mention the reason why you are so concerned with illegal immigration and other issues that affect the American way of life when it is totally up in the air whether you will be a future stakeholder in this country?
Why would a person who is doubtful to ever be "Green" , be so passionate about being "Red" instead of "Blue" or vice-versa?

No immigrant Visa is available until the thing is current. From my understanding, Adavnce Parole is not a visa. Quoting from the net.
"Advance Parole is permission for certain foreign nationals, who do not have a valid immigrant visa, to reenter the U.S. after traveling abroad"

I still like the idea of the "Gandhi" character. 10 IV members could dress like Gandhi, practice some coordinate steps and go for a parate on July 4th. That would be a pacific way to demonstrate our frustration.
We just need to find 10 skinny, bald and friendly Indian male members. I am afraid that based on how this process has depressed our community, there are a number of us with the two former qualitities required.
I don't think you should solicit members on the forum without fully letting us know the overall tone and message of your film. Where will the film be distributed and how it will be used? Who is funding your film? Get in touch with Immigration voice organization so that they can help you and let the forum members know if we should help you and if you will convey the right message for us through your film.

Hi Guys,
I was looking at the AP renewal instructions. It says:
1. If you are in the United States, you must attach:
a. A copy of any document issued to you by USCIS showing your present status in the United States; and
b. An explanation or other evidence showing the circumstances that warrant issuance of an advance parole document; or
c. If you are an applicant for adjustment of status, a copy of a USCIS receipt as evidence that you filed the adjustment application;
d. If you are traveling to Canada to apply for an immigrant visa, a copy of the U.S. consular appointment letter.
So what I gather from this is that they need:
a) Our H1B status papers and the previous copies of the advanced parole documents.
b) A letter stating why we need the advanced parole.
c) The I-485 receipt copies.
Now it DOES NOT say anything about the photographs if you are filing within the US.
Can someone who has applied for the Advanced Parole (NOT the EAD), please share their experience and what documents are needed. The EAD filing seems to be elaborately covered.
Thanks.
Just I485:
Isn't just I485 receipt enough -
c. If you are an applicant for adjustment of status, a copy of a USCIS receipt as evidence that you filed the adjustment application
( (a) AND (b) ) OR (c)
+ Photographs:
...or if you are in the United States and filing for advance parole document.
You must submit two identical color photographs of yourself taken within 30 days of the filing of this application.
(Photo spec on page 5 of http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-131instr.pdf)
Alongwith I131 and US$305
Note: When I filed EAD, I didn't do over documentation (refer to http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=18737). In case of AP also overdocumentation should not be required.

What a bunch of morins we are. We are calling USCIS to find out if they are going to accept our applications that were sent on Jul 2nd 7 55 am and Jul 2nd 9 01 am will be accepted. Lord have some mercy on us and give us some brains to read the USCIS update. Damn it. The morons who answer the phone lines do not know jack about W T F is going on. Thats why you were being put on hold. Stop calling USCIS crazily.
I guess they(morons, per your definition) are all techincally correct based on past memo's explaining USCIS stand on postmark dates,last working day in a month rule, the time at which the application was received(the revised bulletin was not yet published) etc etc
no matter what, the decision of accepting the applications is at USCIS's discretion.They can reject applications received in the last week of June as well if they want to.Period.

So I have trickled into 152 tonight. I thought I'd try my hand at campaigning at some local places and managed 3! It seemed a lot harder than I imagined, I think I need to work on my introduction and smile ;) All three folks looked scared and suspicious of me but atleast they signed! Not giving up hope though! I have some others in the works via some good friends and I am going to try and tap more immigration law firms in SF. I am still pledging 200 and hope for more!! Any tips on campaigning to strangers, and I will be set! Thanks guys.
Have a good eve all.
Hi there,
My experience is people listen and sign only if they have time. They may not stop & listen at a train station, but they do outside grocery stores etc.
Good luck... and thanks!
