Its a good thing, hope this will lessen the abuse of the visas by these Indian companies. As I mentioned in another thread, I have seen that H1 and L1s who come from India dont get a very good salary. Not good.
I think they have to pay the minimum wage as declared in their petition.
But I doubt whether they even send those employees on assignments. I guess they process these H1s as a carrot to retain the employees or to preprepared for any future assignments (they may not even come and the visas are never used)...
Wish there is a different category of visas for outsourced kind of work so that H1s can be used by America based companies and H1 is not seen in such a bad light.

Scott Washburn: New Immigration Bill Not Going to Fix What Ails Arizona (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/scott-washburn/new-immigration-bill-not_b_544944.html)
Arizona is at ground zero of our broken immigration system.
People are frustrated and want action.
Action feels good. We see a problem and we want to fix it. We write and pass laws that seem like they'll do the trick: punish people who break our laws; deport people who don't belong here. Except sometimes what looks good and feels good, isn't always good. We end up with reactionary laws that waste precious resources and do nothing to address the source of the problem.
If signed into law, the bill would shift the burden of enforcing immigration laws onto the shoulders of cash-strapped local police departments who cannot afford unfunded enforcement-only mandates. It would exacerbate community tensions and undermine community policing and public safety by making immigrants afraid to cooperate in police investigations.
Most tragic of all, the state would be forced to waste millions to defend itself against the civil rights lawsuits that will rightfully follow. Similar ill-advised anti-immigrant laws in New Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Texas have been struck down by the courts at great expense to taxpayers. With a record budget deficit, does Arizona really need to spend another dime on enforcement strategies that will do nothing to solve our immigration crisis?

This may not be true. This is the problem being faced by many singles. Ofcourse those singles are postponing their plans just because of USCIS policies which in the case of singles is ridiculous. There is no meaning to make a person wait for 5-10 years to get one's spouse just because he applied for a Green Card. I see various kinds of visas for the spouses in other categories like H1 has H4
L1 has L2/L4 ( I dont know what that is)
and so on so forth..
but for a spouse of AOS? nothing.
All the crap of going on H1 are ridiculous. At the first place one has to get a sponsor for H1 and then there are all those issues out of being H1 with the employer and USCIS. There is no benefit of being on AOS. They cannot use EAD. They cannot start companies freely, etc because they are supposed to be on H1 or L1 etc.
Even then the title is misplaced; USCIS does not make laws.

Oh and by the way, may not be me or you waiting for Indian/Chinese GC's but could be your kid and mine. Let's have this talk again in a decade or two given GDP growth,debt and deficits of US and GDP growths/deficits/market size of India/China.
Never say never, I dont know what my kids will do, they will go where is best for them.
And Best is not just GDP, Romania hast 4 times more GDP per capita compared to India, but I don't see my self going back there. Coruption, stupid mentality, etc. dis will not change with GDP growth, to change the mentality of the people you need a couple of generation to die until you get somwhere close to USA.:(

I have my TX license till 06-2013. With the new rules, I heard that DMV's in Dallas are issuing vertical cards which has an expiration date of EAD/H1b expiry date. I recently moved to a new apartment. When i try to change the address online it is asking me to go the nearest DMV. I dont want to loose my current license which has expiry till 2013. Is it OK if i dont change my new address on my drivers license or is there a way to get my new card with the old expiration date. my current EAD expires on 10/2009.

Once the dollar touches that low, expect huge salary cuts across the board for the employess of these companies.
I wish they invested in R and D and innovation and products instead of services. Service industry is mainly governed by dealing with cost efficient labor. These companies reach out to IITs IIMs get the best and brightest and dump them into the service sector and start earning on them.
If they changed their business modal and started investing in products and Rand D, it may not give them quick money, but the results will be beneficial on the long run.

There are good and not so good schools here for MS /PhD. Either way why a seperate quota for US MS/PhD. Is a foreign MS/PHD any inferior?
Just a thought..
Especially IIT/IISc are not too bad schools in india!

Medical : $885 (400 * 2 + 85 chest xray)
Birth Certificate : $120
+ pain for parents and brother to go and stand in line to get the documents.
Also the India tickets cancellation: 250*4 = $1000
Total above $2000.

TB skin test is not mandotory.
I would recommend that you wife gets following tests done and have results ready when you go and see doctor on 15th.
1) Blood test for HIV and RPR(syphilis)
2) Chest XRay
3) Vaccination - MMR, DT(Tetanus booster) and Varicella
if you take the results of tests and proof of vaccination on the day of visit then the medical report can be given same day.
I also recommend that you download form I-693 and I-693A , make few copies, fill up the information like name, A number, date of birth etc and have it ready for the physician to complete the rest of stuff. Make sure you don't sign the form until your doctor signs it. Also don't forget to ask for a copy of the completed for before he seals it.
Hope this helps.
Dont ask me when you get an RFE for your skin test. I believe I read it on these forums that a couple of people were specifically asked about their skin test.
Even the doctors are supposed to give you a skin test and then the x-ray. If you have taken a skin test before, I think you can just take the x-ray now.

As we all know, the Housing crisis in US is getting worse day by day, with the inventory of houses available for sale increasing, and buyers not willing/able to buy those houses.
......
This is something for the US law makers to ponder.

I am not saying Thanks and Good bye, As you see even after my GC I am still responding to your message. I am fully supporting the VI initiative. but the problem is that USCIS will do only what they think it is right and not what is really right. Me being in the Q for so long , I will never forget the Horrors of waiting for GC, even after getting the GC.
We as indians are divided lots in every area, we are like CRABS. certainly I am not one of those CRABS, My friends will give a ample proof about that.
In matter of fact, As a community, we are not PROUD about OURSELVES and our HINDU CULTURE, we cannot make any DHARMIC efforts to come under ONE UMBRELLA and fight for our cause. IV is one initiative, which is good but not enough, because do we get any help from our Indian Embassy or any Indian Organisation in America to support us, NEVER. this is because we DONOT LOOK UPTO OUR INNER VOICE AS HINDUS. I am not saying this to you in particular, I am referencing this as an INDIAN COMMUNITY. SO PLEASE NOTHING PERSONAL.
every one of us is a GOOD PRACTISING HINDU BECAUSE WE LIVE LIFE WITH OUR DHARMIC VALUES AND PRINCIPLES. IT IS TIME TO COME TOGATHER AND IMPLEMENT THOSE VALUES AS A HINDU SOCIETY.
thanks for your suggestion i really appreciate that.

Oh, so this is an Indain Hindu organization then? Do you want us to quit? :cool:

If you are replaceable then you have false claimed in your application that no American is available for your job. It defeats your H1B and Green card application. America invites H1Bs and gives them greencards not because they are paying taxes but because employers prove no american is available for our job and we have unique skills for job. 'Best and Brightest' is we are and USA needs us. Without us the economy will be more bad.
You must be dumb. Did you read the whole sentence and if you cannot comprehend what I am trying to say, you must be incapable of understanding it. I said in TODAYS WORLD. The world is changing very fast. GC process takes 10 years now.
I am sure whatever technology you are working on, there are 100 more people capable of filling that position as of now. So, even your so called skilled position can be filled within few days. USCIS interprets even today, what the conditions were at the time of filing. Not what the current job/wage or labor market conditions are.

Fraud is usually about lie. If you hide a material fact from USCIS, that is a lie by ommision; and becomes a fraud if it was done intentionally. Changing employment while on EB GC application is a material fact and would matter much when USCIS decides on your case.
Usually, this kind of ommision is found out when the individual applies for another immigration benefit or for Naturalization.

Hi,
I will be traveling during May to India (Bangalore) with a 3 hour layover in Frankfurt (Lufthansa). Is there anyone who has just returned through frankfurt without a transit visa?
What is confusing is that on the Indian website of Lufthansa it says that "Expired Visa with I797 extension notice accepted " Check out the last line in bold font.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transit Visa Regulation for Indian Residents
In order to ensure a smooth and hassle free tansit through two Schengen States or when booking a Journey from India to USA via Canada, please pay attention to the transit visa regulations.
Indian passport holders in possession of a valid visa to USA and traveling to USA via Canada require a Canadian Transit Visa.
Routing Example : Bengaluru - Frankfurt -Toronto- Newark - Frankfurt - Bengaluru
In the above routing, the indian resident would require a Candian Transit Visa even if there is no stopover in Toronto.
Indian passport holders in possession of a valid visa to their final destination, but transiting via two Schengen States, require a valid Schengen Visa.
Routing Example : Chennai- Frankfurt- Paris -Chicago- Frankfurt- Chennai
In the above routing, the Indian resident would require a Schengen Visa even if there no stopover in Frankfurt or Paris.
Indian nationals can Transit without Visa via FRA/MUC if holding a valid visa for the destination and a valid Visa for any of the following countries
Bulgaria, Canada, Cyprus, Ireland, Japan, Liechtenstein,
Romania, UK and USA (Expired Visa with I797 extension notice accepted - Schengen Visa.

I have taken mine and my wife's pic using digital camera, and took the card to the walmart. They have the software where you can set the passport size. 6 photos printout costed us 30 cents each. If you have digital camera take 640X480 photo with good light. This is the best option instead of going to walgreens which chargs 2 photos 8 dollars.
USCIS is very particular about the background , shadows and lighting. Unless you have a near professional lighting in your home , you are taking a risk. The flash light you use in camera creates a shadow on the subject and/or in the back ground. That is not acceptable. Unless you have a decent camera and you know what you are doing , it is very easy to over expose in close-up shots. Be very careful.

It is evident to anyone following this thread who hijacked it. I was only responding to the OP when you came here with your crappy comments about how people should not enforce personal morals on drug traffickers.
Why don't you explain to everyone how is telling the OP that we do not condone taking or selling drugs something of a personal opinion?
If your next post does not address the issue, then we all know who the real immature person is. Unless you have an answer, I will consider this case closed.
Again, you're the one whose hijacked the thread with your verbal mastur*tion.
LMAO@ "if you consider yourself tough" hahaha
so fighting anonymously over the internet in a forum is your test of being "tough" ?
haha.
Go back and do your IT coding or whatever you do.
I shall reiterate what i stated in my previous post and leave the childish internet bickering to you Mr internet "Sledgehammer" LOL
