Just talked to a recruiter from a software giant.
She specifically wanted to know if I was on EAD and if yes, unfortunately they cannot hire EADs during the fourth quarter (now) due to hiring budget limitations that are typical during the fourth quarter.
Q: Why does budget come in to picture here?
A: Because policy requires the legal dept to be consulted for visa holders and EADs which means additional hiring costs plus time.
But she said once the fourth quarter passes, EAD hiring is not a problem.
Folks, we should not remain quiet about this. The regulations make it illegal for an employer to discriminate based on immigration status. We should politely and respectfully pursue the authorities regarding this matter.
I would encourage you to point out the USDOJ guidelines (posted earlier) to the "software giant" employer and also contact the OSC worker hotline.
Also, would it be wise for people to post name of the company who are known to have such policies? We got one - CapitalOne from earlier posts.

For an employment-based petition, in order to proceed and be valid, they need to still INTEND to be employed by the sponsoring employer if and when they get their green card. The employer however, does not need to sign any forms per se with relation to the adjustment petition. If the alien is currently working for the sponsoring employer (on H-1B or other) he or she can port or transfer employers without penalty or without losing the
green card process 180 days after they file the I-485 petition. At that point, they can change employers and work for whomever they wish (provided they have a valid work permit)
I have an employment-based petition and I'm presently unemployed. From what I understand, the sponsoring employer can hire me when I get my green card. So, when I get my EAD, which is most probably in 3 months, can I use it to work for whomever I wish?

And it's my wishful thinking for you and my other fellow-members who went through the roller-coaster ride last month. Also, it is a speculation based on the recent events in the last 10 days. I have already filed my I485.
Cheers & Good Luck!
I thought so too :) :). Your's was just wishful thinking.

I don't know what do you mean by success. as far as media coverage is concerned, Fireign media (India, China or elsewhere) doesn't help. It's local media, which can create some usefull awareness. How does awareness in a different country helps?? I don't know why even people talking coverage about foreig media?????
Sometime back.. I also read some comment talking about involving Indian govt. in this.... Bullshit.. What does a different country's govt has to do with it!!!
Point is.. don't get too excited for having done nothing... Do something substantial and keep doing.

I am no Gandhi and don't want to be one. I am just a common man trying to make my ends meet. Only thing I know is that if you come before me in the line I am affected. It is not a DMV line where every one will get their License, it is a ration line where the items are limited.
Call it selfish call it any thing else but these are the facts after being in the USA for last 12 years and two different labors.
You are correct this is a selfish world. I support you. You are most welcome to go ahead with the lawsuit. I am EB3 and been here for 10 years and have no intention of porting to EB2. I will be most happy to see you get your GC.
May be I am being selfish too because I dont want any EB3 to jump up the line before me. :D
"76% of the people oppose this initiate, this is something to feel positive about". This shows that we are still united.

I think Vonage will offer this free International calling for few months till it meets its target of new subscribers and then start charging per minute later on or in an indirect manner.
Once the new charges come into force the happy subscribers will not be able to cancel the service immediately due to cancellation charges and moreover since all other providers will be more of the same, Vonage wud then retain most of the customers
what say thou?
If they change the "contract" you agreed to initially - then you have every right to get out of the contract without any termination fees. It may take some arguing with the CS - but I know some people who have done this successfully with telephone companies like Verizone/Sprint etc when they changed some inconsequencial T&C.

Let all the members who are here in USA for more than 9 years without a green card unite and make this as an ACTION ITEM for IV Core to consider this. Others who like this idea are most welcome to support this.
We all need to unite to get this going...
Everyone,
See the May 2009 Visa bulletin and decide yourself. Is it worth just wasting our time on the green card processing?. Let us concentrate on getting the Citizenship soon. Support this idea in mass and make this as a first priority on IV agenda.. It is time to think...

What are you talking about? this is not a good news, we will decide that after May Visa Bulletin. For now just read that as a publicity stunt from lawyers and forget about it.
MC
Most of these immigration lawyers are having hard time these days and are not making as much money as they once used to. This could very well be a publicity stunt for creating a scene that eb2 is going to move very fast so that more eb3 will work on porting, thereby making big bucks for lawyers. Wait until you get your greencard in hand.

I have been a reader on this site for years and have contributed to many of the fund raising campaigns. I agree with many of the comments on this thread. Brothers and sisters we need to team up and clamour for fair treatment; let us all contribute with dollars and sweat. I assume most of us on this site can afford to contribute a lot more than we have in the past and the potential rewards (fair opportunity to Immigration) are immense.
I have personally been in the US for ten years and believe I have contributed to the society a lot - while being a law abiding tax payer (I wish I could use the word citizen). And my story is not any different from any of yours. Why then we haven't gotten what we deserve at this point, afterall we have earned it by our sweat. The reason is we haven't realized our strength: in numbers, in dollars and in our contribution to the American society. No one is going to listen until we make our plight known to the public at large and to the law makers.
Some thoughts on how to go about doing it. We need a detailed plan with names of volunteers who can contribute their time. The plan should also include a list of key law-makers we are going to contact and how. All of this will cost money - so the first thing to do is support the fund-raising efforts. I also think we need to increase the fund-raising target by a lot; because the stakes are so high.
I apologize if I have wasted anyone's time with a long post. And I thank all of you for caring for one another and by sharing so much info with all the silent readers of this site. I have learned more about immigration from this site than my employer or immigration attroneys could ever share with me.
I will now put my money where my mouth is by making a contribution to Immigration Voice.
Contributing is not a problem to many, as I understand. We need an agenda. Unless that comes from the core group, I'd atleast not just day dream, blog but will also Do somehting by writing to whatever sources I know. I write every 3 days to change.gov, and to various news papers. Did the editors who recently published about us or CNBC dream about our issue and bring forth. NO,. people like you and me write to them and they get the ideas to publish.. No one is stopping us from doing our part. Keep writing , we all have very good writing skills.. keep doing it while we wait on other things...Do it non-stop.. atleast twice a week. spread it to friends..

Friends, IV�ians and fellow sufferers,
Today we received our physical Green card; 63 years since my motherland got her freedom I got mine. Its been a long journey and I am glad that I can shut this chapter and go on to the next..
First of all let me tell you that the mail that you get the card is as incognito as they come. Its not in the USCIS envelope, looks almost like a credit card offer. Wife was almost going to shred it but felt the card and opened it :). Its actually green. With the date of birth mentioned a gazillion times. Magnetic strip, hologram and all that kind of jazzy stuff. I have no freaking clue where they got the picture from, its not what I submitted with the I485. It should be the one they took while finger printing in 2007.
Finally I popped the cork off a bottle of Champagne that I have been saving for this occasion and have taken more than a few morsel sips of the bubbly. (please pardon any excesses I might make in this post :D). Now I can chart out my career as I want to with no constraints to cap my potential. I can attain full self actualization in whatever I decide to do and also hopefully contribute more to society both here in my karma bhoomi and back in India my janma bhoomi.
If I may paraphrase Jawaharlal Nehru � when the world sleeps (its 12:45AM eastern); I awaken� !!
I have contributed both financially and with my time to IV. I will continue to do so. I wish all of you the very best and hope the ones waiting in get their GC soon. Keep the faith.
Smisachu,
I am happy for you. The process indeed takes an emotional toll on us. Thanks for the heads up about the type of mail. I will be careful to watch out for "credit card offer" type snail mails.

I am sure you have already tried this, but is renting it out not a good option? Even if you rent it out for half the price than your current monthly mortgage amount and if you get a salary hike of approx that much difference, won't it be better? For e.g., let's say you are paying $2000 monthly mortgage payment and you rent it out for $1000, the difference is $12000 per year (out of your pocket) - would this be approx. equal to the amount of salary increase you are getting if you get a new job?
Thanks for the feedback so far from people on this group.
Answering to the question about making bad decision and having a good job..well it is not my bad decision that has brought down the whole market but the banks and stupid people who took loan and didnt knew the consequences of ARM loans and then started filing for foreclosure.. because of those foreclosures the property rates have went down and i cannot get what i paid for the house.
if this whole mess was not there then anyone can find a good job and sell his house, if not profit then atleast with no loss..
i hope u got my point..

Yes, I agree that not filing GC earlier is not an excuse for MBA. The point is he still would have been in the same situation (EB3, 2003 is not too different from EB2, 2005) in terms of how fast he will get his GC.
What stopped (from legal stand point) MBA guy to file for eb3 based GC in 2003? Remember both have BS in Engineering at that time. No employer was ready to file GC for the MBA guy (in 2003) is not a valid legal argument.
Remember, one does not need to be employed to file for GC and GC is for the future job.
It is not what you or I think is fair. From legal point of view, both had equal opportunity to file for GC in 2003 for eb3 job. Just because, the MBA person didn't go for it is not a valid argument. Don't you agree?

According to Ron Gotcher:
"There shouldn't be any debate, as the statute is explicit:"
EB2 INDIA future for fiscal year 2010 - Page 2 - Immigration Information Discussion Forum (http://www.immigration-information.com/forums/general-immigration-questions/9181-eb2-india-future-for-fiscal-year-2010-a-2.html)
Let's see if DOS follows the law as the USCIS pending numbers clearly demonstrate that spill over to oversubscribed countries will be required(by law) in the first quarter, moreso with the new "Pending I485 numbers" report that will be released by USCIS hopefully in a month or two (since Aug25, 2009 report didn't reflect the EB2I approvals in Sepetember 2009).
So December 2009 Visa Bulletin Dates should include spillover visas. Hoping for the best.

You are correct I missed that it can act as a very good buffer if I go by my extrapolated inventory which also factors in PWMB and if the May VB news actually materializes then yes Jul - Aug 2007 will be very easily crossed.
