That is absolutely right. I would also extend the argument from the perspective of the sponsoring employer.
The excessively longer wait would make the employer biased against hiring people from retrogressed countries with similar skills/experience.
Especially since this is an employment based category, I believe your line of argument should work!
It's a valid point from ur prospective, but let me give u the example if the shoe was on the other foot..
I'm sure this is a simplistic generalization, but urs is too
* In 2001, 20 people graduate in retrogressed country and equally qualified 20 graduate in non retrogressed.. both aspire to land a US opportunity
* In a few weeks, all the 20 in the retrogressed country find opportunities among dozens of giant offshoring firms that quickly send them on H1 or L1 projects, within months or may be a year they are settled in the US and at most in 2003 their greencard process is up and running
* The 20 equally qualified non-retrogressed however linger in their homeland for years and duke it out till the brightest 3 manage to find a rare opportunity that only comes every several years.. those 3 finally come to the US in 2005 and may be start their gc in 2006
* Turns out (or actually it was known all along to people before they chose to came) that the US only gives 5 greencards per year and because they know qualified people exist in all countries and they don't want few countries to swallow the whole quota alone, they give 2/5 to non retrogressed and 3/5 to retrogressed.. only then do some people remember to cry not fair, well it wasn't fair to start with!
I agree a universal 7% limit for any coutry regardless of its population and number of college graduates is stupid.. the percentages need to be adjusted. But to tell me that the 3 unretrogressed have to stand at the end of the line behind the equally qualified 20 retrogressed who came here faster (and chose to come here knowing their homeland is retrogressed) that is really fair.. yeah right!

but I did my bit because I could not attend. I was part of the rally that happened in San Jose.
Please try to understand the message I am conveying rather than making fun. Although I did have a hearty laugh :)
Its fine - just a gentle teasing, I meant not harm - sorry! That's why I'm so vocal on this board as I'm neither male nor Indian. I was actually glad to see that I wasn't the only at the rally so I didn't look like a total fool!

Hi All,
I got a notice from uscis on sept 24th stating that my 485 has been withdrawn as my previous employer withdrew my 140. I filed in july 2007 , and ported to a new job in April 2008. I filed an MTR on 24th Sept, but the status of the MTR is still received and pending. Its going to be 180 days since my 485 has been withdrawn on march 9th. And my lawyer is saying that i have to leave this country if we dont get the MTR accepted before 180 days.
Gurus could you please suggest some ideas on all possible steps that can be taken..
Thanks
As per my knowledge, your lawyer waited too long and he/she may not be very well versed in immigration matters. When MTR is pending and If you do not receive anything within 60 to 90 days, you should immediately file an appeal in court. This is what I read on some forums, but I am not a lawyer, consult a good attorney soon. You need a seasoned professional immigration lawyer for this. Wish you very best of luck!

Just an analogy please dont think i am against undocumented fellows.. They are definitely facing a bigger problem than us!
Compare the following
Nondocumented vs. Documented Legals
1] Not well educated / Highly Skilled
2] Not much computer savvy / Mostly everyone should be
3] Not have enough resources to advertise their struggle!
/ Trying all ways to advertise & campaign
4] Do not have enough monetary collection to run a rally / advt /
set up a website
/ Have some collection to do the basics
5] Come here illegally and yet have the courage to demand a legal status openly...
/ Feel shy or sorry for demanding a legal status soon! (for those who dont think
this is worthwhile)
Inspite of all these negatives , they have grouped up so well ! highly commendable. I dont know what we can learn from them, only that they are all in the same boat , but we are in different ones .. as some have got gc, some have got receipts, some are ready to wait as they have just applied, some are just not interested!!

When I got laid off, my lawyer at the time told me that technically you are out of status as soon as you leave payroll. There was no such thing as a "grace period". I was advised to change my visa status to B2 (I think it was that) with immediate effect, if I could not find a new job within 2 weeks to complete an H1B "transfer". It isn't exactly a transfer of the visa, but what you would do normally when you are changing employers whilst on H1 B. I was told that the "maintaining status" was verified by payroll dates, so within the 2 weeks (I was paid bi-monthly) would be safest

The H1B visa belongs, in effect, to the company that sponsors it. You cannot work for any other company on that visa other than sponsor. If this is a transfer, then, In a so-called "visa transfer" what actually happens is that the initial visa is cancelled in favor of another one issued for the new employer. What that means is OP's work with old employer is considered as "unauthorized work". Do not consider this as illegal presence, as his legal presence is controlled by a valid I-94.
So in this case if I work for EMP A and apply for a h1b thru EMP B as soon as the MEP B's petition is approved I lose the approved peition with EMP A ??? I know the answer but want to see your take.......
I hope you assume this as a new H1B not a transfer or else your post is wrong.
Once the H1 transfer application is approved, Employer 2 is not considered as sponsor but employer X. Hence work with Employer 2 is not authorized.
Note H1 to L1, H4 to H1, L1 to H1 is completely different, it is change of status - H1 to H1 is not change of status, Correct, but its a change of sponsor.
so there is no question that you recent h1 is valid and past is invalid. I cannot agree with you more on this., but this is opposition to your earlier suggestion (see in red). Get an attorney, Good weekend
To answer your question Yes nuthing gets transfered. Every time its a new h1b there is no transfer of anything. You can have 2 or more valid approved petition from different employers but you can use only one at a time.
Pay - They are liable and USCIS can question them. All they will have to do is show that this employee (OP) was no show never joined the company so basically agree with you here.

We should try something like applying for 485 without priority date but even the cantwell cornyn amendment does not have this provision
We should lobby for only this thing at this time ..
This will resolve most of our problems...
This is not about adding new numbers and should not be opposed.

Its not a merit system, its a disguised diversity visa in the name of skills/merit. What kind of merit system will not have qualifying points? Its a shame that Sen Kennedy's website gave examples of how people ranging from 50-89 points can get GC's. Just call it diversity visa. Its a lie of massive proportions. When is Sen Kennedy up for election?
Dude he is a Kennedy...he is a senior senator from MA and for all intents & purposes is in senate for life...

First of all I would like to Applaud the Consulate General of India - Houston for the phenomenal speedy service I received for my daughters PIO application via mail. I sent my application on Oct 1st 2010 and it's Oct 15th - we have already received her PIO along with our passports back!! All the information about delays which I had read online before submission seem to be rubbish.
Additional info: notarizing passports was hassle coz no one was ready to stamp the photocopy. Texan credit union manager made a letter with my passport information, took my signature and notarized it for free. I just attached the photocopies with her letter.
I sent the below mentioned documents from Dallas via $20 Express Mail USPS - with signature proof. Was delivered under 24 hours. CGI Houston returned our stuff in FEDEX.
For status update: I called the consulate 7 days after the delivery notification - (yes its tough getting through - but they do pick up the phone) the lady informed me the PIO card had been processed and will be sent soon.. Didn't realize it would be in next 3 - 4 days!
Below is the cover letter / list of documents I sent with my package from Dallas, TX:

Should we include an explanation of why we need the AP? When you e-file, there is no way we can fill in this information online.
... and prepared the following documents to be send:
-Copy of a e-filed I-131 receipt (.pdf, received right after submission, credit card payment reflected)
-Copy of Notice of Action for e-filed I-131 (received from USCIS, paper)
-Copy of I-485 receipt
-Copy of last Advance Parole
-2 photographs.
I hope this is what is required as supplemental docs.
Best wishes!!!

They are cheap compare to other airlines and if you travel from JFK,there is direct flight to Mumbai, it will take you there in 13 hours, which is really good....offcourse the Air India staff are not professional, I have no right words to explain about them, in a scale 1 to 10, I will not even rate them as '1'........if you miss connection in Mumbai, then you have to struggle like any thing, nobody will help out...no proper plan at all....they feel that they are kings and can do any thing.....not at all customer friendly, If I am the boss for AI, first I will train them how to treat the customers, if they refused to learn, I will fire them.....yes, just firing is the solution.....
Let me know guys, If there is any website to complaint about the CS, we all should complaint about them, at least they will change little......

Ajobha, thank you for starting this thread.
I am actually curious about peoples reasoning behind not attending the rally. I don't think anyone should judge people's decisions, but if we can understand why we didn't succeed in tempting you to come, we can learn for next time.
It sounds like you might be considering going to another county or back home? Ironically, if this is true, it highlights perfectly what one of our key messages was at the rally.
You are a poster child of reverse brain drain. The US needs to keep talent, whether it is home grown or imported. By making the process so grueling, people are starting to leave in droves.
I didn't attended because recently I had a new boss and he was monitoring my daily schedule and being in H1b and coming so close to filing I-485, I was just waiting for my EAD or I-485 cheques to get encashed. On 21st Sep, they got encashed. Now I am bold enough to take a day or two as vacation and attend rally if organized in eastern part.
I did paid 50% travel cost to one of our member from CA.
Sorry for not attending this time, will do it next time.

My experience with FDBL ( Filed through #1 DataStorage Firm) has been good till now. Informed well ahead, filed on time. LC processing took a bit b/c of general LC filing norms but LC cleared in 20 days and I140 in 7 days. Guess they did their paperwork and all right.
