Why not 3 more years either :)
Well thought I had to answer this better. The answer is YES, we can get bills introduced and passed if we had 2 million dollars. Lets not make assumptions about what congress cares for, we'll let core members handle that. As written previously, we have managed to get quite a lot of change done with minuscule funding, even though we haven't been able to afford the best people.
Maybe right now even achieved a bit more than the illegal immigration lobby.
How exactly do we do it? - Check Donor forum, where we get constant updates on our efforts in Washington DC.
Donations start at a one time of $25, even if that's the only thing you do all year.
There are some thinking why not get everything for free, when IV is already working? Its a tendency of many to save as much as possible, and get the thrill of getting something free. As I speak, Donors are benefiting from IVs efforts. United we can achieve a lot, Divided we fail.
The other common excuse is - "I really don't care, even if I don't get the GC, I can always find a job back home. Pay $1000 for my return flight. Just visiting... "
Well I guess the other option of spending much less, getting a GC in 1-2 years, starting your own business in the USA, making much more money is really something no one wants.
Agree with you Tony - there are so many members of this forum - I find it hard to believe that everyone's budget is so tight, that they cannot afford to divert $25 per-month to a cause that is going to help them directly.
I am not underestimating the value of $300 per-year, but compared to the value that this is likely to drive, it is certainly an investment that can provide handsome returns.
I would rather NOT believe that most people here are with a free-loader mentality - waiting for others to fund and drive the momentum, while they just keep yapping about their problems and concerns about the situation, laws, regulations, illegals, employers etc. etc.
In my opinion people are missing the big picture of that if everyone contributed, there could be significant momentum that could be created - a $25 per-month contribution could lead to a $500K monthly lobbying fund - which is a non-trivial amount to drive our agenda.

You are soliciting business from IV site. You don't have a disclaimer or no shame in doing that. You filled your charge country as UK and pretend to be GC aspirant. You can advertise your thing by paying IV, not by these cheap method of interfering here. I know you suck a big amount from people approching your firm for evaluation and take more amount (than the authorized) from them using the credit card details on file by giving lame excuse. I know many friend burn their hands.
I did post about this. We have seen professor's expert opinion letters showing the equivalency to the MA being approved. However, the evidence does point to an equivalency to a BA.

Yes. misrepresentation is risky and dangerous and no one is asking you to do it. All I am saying is don't submit information that weren't asked and expose yourself. For example if you only need to w2s for 2006 and 2007, don't submit 2004 w2s when you were paid less etc. IOs make the decision with the information provided to them and issue RFE only if the info is not sufficient or require clarification. In fact this is what even UnitedNations wrote in other forms.. i.e. don't pro-actively submit extra documentation.
Coming to my wifes case, apparently, according to company records she was their employee since the start of H1B approval, but they were reluctant to put her on project and payroll with out SSN. When we mentioned this, the company owner was very cooperative and in fact ready to give us any letter we ask in case of an RFE or any time we request.
Btw, do you honestly think I (or my attorney/assistent who filled the entire application for us based on the documents 'he asked us to provide' - We just signed it) don't know what you were saying about mis-representation?? Remember, I didn't even know there may be problems with her 485 till I posted on this forum so no question of any deliberate mis-representation. Since our attorney asked for copy of every document 'specifically' as a bulleted list separately for both of us, we assumed that he would point out issues if there were any. :).
Also, this is exactly what I was saying.. why do come and visit this form, go back and pull my first post and quote on it?? :). If you have a suggestion or solution, please do offer.
Anyways.. Wish you all the best. I hope your wait would be over soon.
Most status related issues are wiped off after a travel outside US.
What I would worry about most is if any misrepresentation was made to USCIS as far as status goes. Years later or even during naturalization, one's could face audit and possible revocation of an approved application.

Mercies.... if your answer is still not answered than please call QGA and find out about us. Before spending so much time writing this post if you had gone to the resources, you would have got some questions answered.
The only reason to create this thread is to
(a) find if this guy is making any sense at all
(b) to alert you to all that some people are talking about
(c) get straight forward answers
Do not start jumping on me now!
You guys are doing a great job - but the stated goal of funds is at 15% collected so far! More people are needed, unless you have won a lottery and can spare rest of the cash right away!
That know-all who is telling people to go hide in their blankets is scaring more people than any stupid reproduced posts will do!
Please somebody needs to counter this guy at the other site!

Thanks for informative posts. and Thanks specifically for addressing the wages question.
Another Quebec/Ontirio question.
Apart from the French language and referendum threat, are there any other downsides for Montreal? I guess the reason I seem to be fixated is that I think if I am going to make this change I might as well change the life setting to somewhat more European (in terms of architecture and the environment overall) as I am getting tired of American setting some times. So Montreal sounds more European in that sense. I do however, have a wife and kids and not sure if that makes a difference in the choice of destination as oppose to being a single migrant. Any differences in terms of education quality or family friendly policies between Ontario and Quebec?
Thank you
Quebec is a poorer province than Ontario, but Montreal is fantastic. If you are after a European flair, then this is the spot for you. There are "english areas" (like Beaconsfield) to live in, that I would recommend if you don't speak french.
VS Ontario: Housing is more affordable, wages may (?) be a pinch lower, taxes are higher.
Canadian educational system is different than the US. You don't need to look for a neighbourhood with a good school. However, a good neighbourhood is better for your family.
Good Luck

I changed it to clarify. The answer is YES, we have had 100% approvals for CA=MA, but we have done relatively few. This is based on Indian documentation that CA=PGD. However the stronger evidence points to CA=BA. As you can see someone on this board got an approval for our evaluation for a CA=MA with a professor's expert letter. The professor's letters are not cheap but effective.
In India, only UGC (University Grant Commission) is qualified to issue equivalency letters. Professor letter can be supplemental, but it can not be authentic certification, as UGC is only one to issue that.
>> The professor's letters are not cheap but effective.
Care to explain what do you mean by "not cheap"?
Is there any university that have taken CA qualified for PhD programme?

Dont mean to flame you, but you say that you are not a crab and the next moment you bring up religion, faith, Indian etc and associate that to IV's
goal.
Whats wrong in that are they not the guiding principles of living life. when we all get angry about not getting the GC, this same faith and values keep us sane. I associate these with IV so that God can give them strength to succed. we will give our donations to support that.
other news, I hope, we will have this bill passed............

The reason Yates memo talks about significant wage diff is to determine whether job classification is the same. It is possible that someone working in IT as a programmer starts his own company/switches to another IT company and starts to do business development. Now there would be significant wage diff coz BDev people get paid more than an IT professional. In such a case USCIS would not allow AC21.
One quick question about salary limitation. Where is this mentioned. I went through the following link posted on this thread earlier ( see below). It says clearly no restrictions on wage. Please suggest, why is this a issue.
Please understand, i am trying to learn from others experience and definaltely not contradicting any one here.
http://www.murthy.com/news/UDac21qa.html#8
Q) If I change jobs, does the new employer have to pay the wage stated on the labor certification? TOP
No. As explained by the INS in the June 2001 Interim Guidance Memo, the new job does not have to be at the same wage level, nor is there any requirement that the new position pay a rate equal to the "prevailing" wage. The only restrictions are that the pay must be sufficient to demonstrate that the person will be self-supporting and not become a "public charge."

Hi,
Can you please provide me with the information about the questions your friend faced? In my case the client side project was completed. I would appreciate your response.
I am not sure whether your case and my colleague's case is similar.
This happened in 2007. USCIS conducts random audits on companies to verify their authenticity.
USCIS conducted an audit on his company. They fixed an appointment with him in his office. They asked all the tax returns, W2, Paystubs etc. They also talked to his client manager and verified his duties.
After that everything went fine. He works for the same employer now.
Hope this helps.

Perhaps, USA can levy another "fee" on H1-B folks to cover up the fighter jet deal loss just like they levy the mexico border protection fees on H1-B's.
Obama and USA should know that they can not cover every expense in USA by levying fees on H1-B folks. It's disgusting.
Which country in this world charges high skilled ppl to pay for their border protection?
Tell me one country in this world which is giving 140K GC for skilled immigrants and alomst 1 million GCs for immigrants...

Newt said Nothing is going to happen on this Specter or any other immigration bills in Senate. The conference with House will not agree to anything.
I also sincerely believe that Nothing is going to happen I say, these senators are doing CYAs; they will bitch it to media, their constituents, hey look, we did attempt these immigration reforms.
I am talking from my long experience and wisdom and take it from me. The only force that can improve the pitiable conditions of Indian and Chinese due to retrogression and lack of visa numbers is the big corporate employers . Each one whose LC is approved, whose I-140 is approved, who is waiting to file for adjustment of status AND who are indispensable to the employer / work at this stage should write to the HR/ Immigration/ Attorney.
I am in such a position. I am a technical lead in my IT department. PD Nov 2001. I write about these issues and the difficulties once in a month my team manager, or project manager or Immigration department.
