1) Fast-track GC process for Masters degree holders from US universities. This will be the least controversial, boost admissions (and money) flowing into universities, and clear up backlog in regular GC queue. Its a win-win and most senators, congressmen have voiced support for it already. We can get very good support from University lobbyists also (if they exist!!).

I actually agree with logiclife. Your worth = how you perform. I have a Ph.D. and I am a post-doc in a lab, but my salary depends on how I perform. If someone with 6 months of NIIT can do what the job needs great. But, and this is a big but, whether you like it or not, US immigration policy is going to favor those who got degrees from the US . So Ron Hiras will have their way, and something will be worked out for those with US degrees. IEEE has tons of "well-respected" studies which prove that graduate studies improve the person's worth for an organization. Brb2 is also perfectly correct in that they fit in better in the US work culture, and hence have what the US industry needs. It is also true that if the need arises, those with US degrees can find employment with non-consulting firms; most non-US educated people however need these desi consultants.
It is false. US employers need good skilled workers. The only way they used to get people in earlier days was through students who come and graduate. But after the body shopping infracture was built, they started getting people through body shops.
Body shops are like feeder agents that feed foreign skilled workers in the system.
As per super specialization in US degrees, and Phds etc...It is true that some jobs need these skills and these kind of jobs are always available to people with those skills.
But most IT jobs at an entry level or a junior or a mid level programmer does not require that you have a US degree or a Masters or a Phd, and these are the kind of jobs that get filled by H1bs without US Master's.
In fact if a job requires a Phd and if they did not find a qualified US worker for that job, the job will be open for a PhD as long as the degree from a foreign univ gets evaluated and candidate is good.
In the days where there was no body shopping infrastructure was not there, businesses were forced to take MS grads from US univs just because they were accessible and tghere was no concept of outsourcing.
But these days, every company is having a outsourcing or offshoring model so these jobs that can be outsourced will always be outsourced. If the outsourcable jobs are to be kept in US, then skills must be insourced.
So, if you think US educated or MS people have more advantage - you are just fooling yourself.
The issue here is the distribution of visas and quota restrictions and not US educated or non US educated.

There is something called fraud protection fee that companies pay for initial H1's. So USCIS has the funds to protect the fraud, the question lies if they are really implementing it.
The GOVT should state that those who apply for H1 should make it mandatory for the employees to be in US within 30 - 45 days of obtaining US Visas and be present in US on employment in continous increments of 1 year. And they need to show pay stubs continously.
- Then we can easily filter out WIPRO, Infosys, Consulting company from misusing. For example Wipro will apply 5000 H1s and then send people when they eventually get a project, out of 5000, may be 1000 may show up in 6 months. So In this case 4000 H1s can get invalid. Indian companies find it sending people overseas is expensive business and would enjoy offshoring projects. If the govt makes this rule, consulting companues will be forced to start paying H1 folks from Day 1, no bench period, plus "Candidates need to show up in person immdlty in US". We kill 2 birds with 1 stone. 1, dummy H1s will not be applied, 2, if they approve H1s then they have to send engineers immdlty for which they may not be really ready, since they only anticipate projects and may not need so many H1s right away !...
THis will be a sure shot solution.

Teddy. The intention of such post is to tell people that they need to look beyond spending time on predictions. Predictions can help people know the extent of the backlog. For some it is a motivating factor because they were in the dark until USCIS started publishing data. People used to think their Greencard is round the corner and had no idea about the backlog. So yes the data and estimations have helped get a clearer picture. And this has benefited our community. IV has worked for several months to get the data from USCIS through its agenda item in the past. Today USCIS is publishing data at regular intervals because IV community had participated in a mass campaign to get FOIA data from USCIS. There is a whole history of advocacy behind the data everyone is using for prediction today and it was advocacy that got things done. However they should not get stuck with it and have a more 360 degree view of the issue. For some predictions are a source of encouragement for advocacy work. People leading predictions can play an important role in giving direction to others and help solve the root cause of the problem.They should be urged use it for the advocacy work as well if possible. For example a good research document can be made to illustrate visually the extent of backlogs and wait times. This document can be then circulated to media and lawmaker offices. Do not look at predictions in isolation. Secondly, the data people are using is still incomplete and has lot of assumptions. I had posted some update on the data in the donor forum early this month based on a recent meeting. So predictions we see on the forums will not be fully correct. People need to use predictions as means rather than consider it as an end.
That is exactly why these are known as PREDICTIONS.
Suggested reading
"A prediction or forecast is a statement about the way things will happen in the future, often but not always based on experience or knowledge. While there is much overlap between prediction and forecast, a prediction may be a statement that some outcome is expected, while a forecast may cover a range of possible outcomes.
Although guaranteed information about the information is in many cases impossible, prediction is necessary to allow plans to be made about possible developments; Howard H. Stevenson writes that prediction in business "... is at least two things: Important and hard."[1]"

Thanks sravani,
So will the doctor still give me a report even if I don't complete all medical exams?
Also on a side note, Do you know how long does it take to get the report once the tests are done?
Thanks
Yup. The doctor will give you a report with a note in a sealed envelope and you can submit that document when you apply for your 485.
For me, the physician took 3 days for the report. It depends on the physician I guess, but usually it will not take more than a week to get the report.
Good luck to you!

I want to add 'Family and Relatives pressure' in addition to 'Peer Pressure'. When I visited India lasttime, I was asked by almost all the relatives if We had bought a house. It has become an indication if we are doing well (earning well). After a while, i felt little bit uneasy to say that we did not buy house while many of our cousins already did. thats family pressure.
Other than for monetary reasons, there is a small group of people, who do not buy house even if they can afford to and live in apartments
- still not decided where to settle down,
- want to move to warm place, but just not yet due to job,
- think it is lonely to live in a big house with unfamiliar neighbors.
- have small kids, takes lot of time to meet their needs after work, daycare. cannot take the burden of maintaining a big house.

Peer pressure
Lets take fictitious families R & S living in the same rented community with similar back ground. Mr and Mrs R decide to buy a home and they buy one. Mr S does not think it is right for them to do so. How ever, Mrs S pressures Mr S into doing so. Believe me this happens all the time.

�. Further, in my country, there are still reservation policies in everything�..
Dude, I am not saying that this country is great or that country is great. You might be having valid reasons for the choice that you want to make, but you did not have to bring reservation into this. The people you have been complaining against have been discriminated for ages but they did not come looking for an easy life like you did. So stop complaining and concentrate on valid points...
