Why not? Although I have applied for GC, I have no desire to take US citizenship, just to let you know. The majority does not mean the whole world and also does not mean everyone. There are Indian citizens that love India. Parents should be able to make decisions for their kids until they are 18. The kid can take US citizenship when he is 18 if parents have opted for Indian citizenship.
well said my friend and i agree with you completely. although, i grappled with this issue when we had a baby.......the question where i got stumped was - if i got Indian Citizenship for my child (born in US), what would be the child's legal status here? and, also if we were traveling outside the country - how would the child reenter US?

What is this OBC battle you are talking about?
My comment was in reference to the poster's Africa comment. Do you think it is well informed & 'classy' ?
As for the OBC battle, is this the right forum to discuss such issues ?

Here is the "India Thing" again.
Please, if you really love your country go back home. I don't think America really cares if you leave.
There will always H1-B application every year.
I'm not from India.

I agree with you. Next week we will see the bulletin and then some people will be elated if their predictions come right and some will be disapointed. Again in 20 days we will start a new thread for Oct bulletin and FY 2010. I guess it is just that we are keeping alive our hopes.

In EAD form, they are asking about previous EAD info..like which service center, what date, GRANTED or REJECTEd etc.. Now I had two EADs..one is OPT and other one I got last year. Do I have to write info for both one or just for last year?? In last year's form, I wrote info about my OPT. But what now?
1. Paper filing mention your last EAD
2. eFiling mention your last EAD and there is also a space for two previous EAD, you will have to fill in that too.

WASHINGTON - Senate leaders reached a deal Thursday on reviving a broad immigration bill that could provide millions of illegal immigrants a chance to become American citizens and said they'll try to pass it before Memorial Day.
[/URL]
The agreement brokered by Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., and Minority Harry Reid, D-Nev., breaks a political stalemate that has lingered for weeks while immigrants and their supporters held rallies, boycotts and protests to push for action.
Key to the agreement is who will be negotiating a compromise with the House, which last December passed an enforcement-only bill that would subject the estimated 11 million to 12 million illegal immigrants in the United States to felony charges as well as deportation.
Frist said the Senate will send 14 Republicans and 12 Democrats to negotiate with the House, with seven of the Republicans coming from the Judiciary Committee and seven of the Democrats chosen by Reid.
Frist said a "considerable" number of amendments would be debated when the Senate begins debating the bill early next week.
It would be the most comprehensive rewrite of immigration laws since the so-called Simpson-Mazzoli bill some 20 years ago.
Reid acknowledged on the Senate floor Thursday morning that he "didn't get everything that I wanted" in the agreement, but said Frist didn't either. Reaching the agreement is "not easy with the political atmosphere," Reid said.
Reid had been taking some criticism for refusing to move forward on the bill after complaining that Republicans were trying to undermine it with amendments and insisting that Democrats be allowed to have a say in who serves on the conference committee.
Republicans, too, have had opposition from conservatives to the compromise proposal. These critics consider its path to citizenship provision for illegal immigrants and hundreds of thousands of future guest workers to be tantamount to "amnesty."
They've also had to contend with fallout from opposition to the House bill that triggered nationwide protests that drew hundreds of thousands in Los Angeles, Chicago and Dallas, and hundreds more in other cities and small communities.
Presidential and midyear politics have been a subtext to the immigration debate. Frist and Arizona Sen. John McCain ([URL="http://us.rd.yahoo.com/DailyNews/politics/news/ap/ap_on_go_co/immigration/19003417/*http://news.search.yahoo.com/search/news?fr=news-storylinks&p=%22Sen.%20John%20McCain%22&c=&n=20&yn=c&c=news&cs=nw"]news (http://us.bc.yahoo.com/b?P=m2Mu586.I3oEETl1Q8LB5QD5P.66CkRjVskADpMk&T=1bhktcstd%2fX%3d1147360969%2fE%3d83018124%2fR%3d news%2fK%3d5%2fV%3d2.1%2fW%3d8%2fY%3dYAHOO%2fF%3d2 444784108%2fH%3dY2FjaGVoaW50PSJuZXdzIiBjb250ZW50PS JBbWVyaWNhbjtpdDtIb3VzZTtJdDtwb2xpdGljcztkZWJhdGU7 QnVzaW5lc3M7cmVmdXJsX3VzX2YzNjJfbWFpbF95YWhvb19jb2 0iIHJlZnVybD0icmVmdXJsX3VzX2YzNjJfbWFpbF95YWhvb19j b20iIHRvcGljcz0icmVmdXJsX3VzX2YzNjJfbWFpbF95YWhvb1 9jb20i%2fQ%3d-1%2fS%3d1%2fJ%3d5023BECE&U=13994266v%2fN%3dp7iUVc6.Irk-%2fC%3d395108.7908979.8803055.1414694%2fD%3dLREC%2 fB%3d3338499), bio (http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/capadv/bio/ap/ap_on_go_co/immigration/19003417/SIG=117abbj56/*http://yahoo.capwiz.com/y/bio/?id=192), voting record (http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/capadv/vote/ap/ap_on_go_co/immigration/19003417/SIG=11gvsboie/*http://yahoo.capwiz.com/y/bio/keyvotes/?id=192)), one of the architects of the legalization proposed, are speculated to be competing for the 2008 GOP presidential nomination.

Kennedy (news (http://us.rd.yahoo.com/DailyNews/politics/news/ap/ap_on_go_co/immigration/19003417/*http://news.search.yahoo.com/search/news?fr=news-storylinks&p=%22Sen.%20Edward%20M.%20Kennedy%22&c=&n=20&yn=c&c=news&cs=nw), bio (http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/capadv/bio/ap/ap_on_go_co/immigration/19003417/SIG=117gklk9e/*http://yahoo.capwiz.com/y/bio/?id=297), voting record (http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/capadv/vote/ap/ap_on_go_co/immigration/19003417/SIG=11gbh3bl6/*http://yahoo.capwiz.com/y/bio/keyvotes/?id=297)), D-Mass., that called for allowing illegal immigrants to work toward becoming legal permanent residents.
President Bush (http://search.news.yahoo.com/search/news/?p=President+Bush) had helped accelerate progress on the bill after meeting with a bipartisan group of senators last month and stating clearer support for allowing illegal immigrants a path to citizenship.
"Business and labor, Democrats and Republicans, religious leaders and the American people strongly support our plan to strengthen borders, provide a path to earned citizenship for those undocumented workers who are here and put in place a realistic guest worker program for the future," Kennedy said.

I was very disappointed at infopass five months ago for 140. The person did not even know the difference between EB2 and EB3. So, I am reluctant to waste any further time. My job keeps me traveling out of town 3 days a week.
Fingerprinting for my EAD was in June08, spouse and daughter in Sep07. Is there a separate Biometrics required for 485? How do I find out about NC clearance? Thanks for your help.
Five months is a long time and immigration officers keep changing. Take multiple infopass apts.
If it amounts to misusing it, to hell with it. I got mine my status update via infopass. The first time the IO was curt initially but said he was ok with giving out NC status update as they don't publish it online.

Its in 42s.. I bet if it goes below Rs. 40., I bet atleast ppl from India would be hesitant to come to the US.
I'd say keep all the factors in mind
1. H1 employer tied visa
2. H4 spouse tied visa ;-)
3. Unattainable GC
4. Expenses/headaches of living in USA
5. Savings in terms of Rs <---- This is the biggest one here

On a similar note, I just learned that my lawyer filed my application today. Her reasoning being very similar to that of Vin_a_99’s.
I am one of the skeptics, and do not believe this lawsuit will do any good from CIS front, but I will throw my hat in the ring as I believe at the very least this will bring our issue to light.
On a side note, since my application is filed, I am now eligible for company reimbursement for all my expenses…great news and its Friday…lots of pints coming up.:)

Sure, your point is very much valid. What I understand from the Freakenomics experiment and EB3I behavior with respect to IV is that only a few folks have the perseverance to go all the way from D to B.
Take 100 folks with C grade and give them the $50 offer for B. May be 80% will reach that goal. (I do not recall the actual results of the experiment).
Take 100 folks with D grade and give them the $50 offer for B. Ideally we should see 80% of folks improving their grade to a C (one level up). But in real life only may be half as much (40%) will actually improve their grades to a C.
An important difference here is, no matter how many participate in this campaign in DC, we all move up a grade at some point.
We will all move a few years sooner if we try, and years later if nobody tries anything. (But we will still move!)
Folks just need to decide: what's more preferable? Slower of faster?
