Glad to see you back. Feels great to see a Nor. Cal member here
We have 16 more weeks for the SF event. That is plenty. We need you to make this successful
Great initiative and kudos to NolaIndian for making it happen!
I love to go for long walks, so count me in for that part! Not sure if I can commit myself to the SF event... need some more time to make up my mind on this one!

I see that you are just before me. I followed threads for number predictions but it seems there aren't many people doing predictions for Eb3.
I have read here or somewhere that there are only 150 to 300 GCs per month for Eb3 india If it is true then it will take more than a couple of years to get to you as there are 8000+ candidates before you.
Have you seen any calculation for Eb3 any where?
You might be greened in SEP 2010.

Hello Gurus,
I have a question as follows. I was with an old company and transferred the H1 in the 9th year to the new company. I already had my Labor and I-140 approved with the old company (EB3-I Category).
After switching to this new company I had to start my PERM all over again as I missed the July 2007 boat and could not file for I-485. My new company is based in L.A.-California. I am already drawing my salary from new company. They only have office in L.A. I work for them from my home office in NJ. Today the company's attorney called & asked me that I needed to have L.A. residential address as it is required to be stated on the application. I have no intentions to move to L.A. in near future. I am in a fix now as to how to go about this. I will appreciate all you gurus and experts advice and also please advise me repercussions if any.
Please help.

We need 60-70 for that one.
I will send you my membership form this week :o
I have started my fundraising, but that is only because I have all the fundraising ideas in my head.
I will start sending out the Welcome Packages this week. The Welcome Package has a section for Fundraising and will help each Team IV Member reach his/her goal.
The first T Shirt order has also been placed, last week, I believe. I should be receiving this initial order by mail shortly and then I can mail out the T Shirts to those who have signed up thus far.
We need to still concentrate on our recruitment efforts this week and the next.
The Dolphin South End Runners Club has welcomed us for their Aug 17, 2008 event. I am hopeful that we can get a contingent of at least 20-30 Team IVians to walk run that event.

I was wondering if any one in the core or other members think about the next step towards getting citizenship after passing the hurdles of getting the green card. If a person is here for 10 years and then get his green card (average period), then he need to wait for another 5 years to get the citizenship. 15 years for this process in a person's life is too much.
IV Core can push or lobby for a law which can make the person a US citizen, if he is living in US for 10 years legally without any issues and paying taxes for the entire period. It is just my idea.
10 years wait for GC and another 5 years for citizenship! That too much time in one's life.

I cannot agree with you more.
Until H1B and GC are based on individual's credentials, there will be no protection on foreign workers, American workers and salary stability.

If you read my any previous posts and to repeat, there will be no issue to contribute from me or most of us here. We need an action item. Anyone with minimum common knowledge here sees there is no change in dates for the last 6 months, or even last few years. You seem to be a strong supporter of contributions, can you list one action item which we planned to take up in the last or in near future that addresses our concerns of backlogs. Now dont come back and tell me or send me a picture of July 07 campaign or your 12th grade or 10th grade marksheet. We need to be doing things of our interest EVERY single day. I do my job very good.. I know.. but I have to keep doing it everyday if I have to keep it. Similarly unless you put continuous efforts, you wont get continuous results.
If you want a reply to your post from me again, come back with an action item that you see as planned.
I agree with you.

Here are few clarification Nix. Not that I need to explain to you but for all peop here
Pappu Thanks for your support
I will post relevant ideas as we gather momentum
My answers to your post are color coded in GREEN
(1) I found a unique way to cope with the stress of our immigration nightmare.
through Day trading??
Dude Day trading is stressfull if you dont know what you are doing ?
(2) It is not easy and it is not for the weak hearted but the rewards are wholesome and tremendous.
(3) Now lets Play !!!!!
Have you just tried to sell Day trading to IVians??
Relax Nix Probably this post aint for you . Why the hell do I need to sell anything to you. I am sharing what I feel is a great way to channalise negative energies towards something useful.
LMAO. I am sorry but I disagree that Day trading is an investment. Day trading is risky business and one needs plush amounts of cash as SIPC/SEC will not release the money on the same day. Don't even get me started on the margin accounts.
It is risky FOR SURE . It is a s risky as much as Crossing road is risky for the blind
People who can see can cross with ease provided they are not careless and have good judgement
I agree with (2) and would also like to point out that the risks are also substantial. One can get addicted to day trading and I dont need to tell what addiction can do to any one.
Nix people are addicted to VB too wht did they achieve.....Here atleast I am doing something progressive.
It needs time during work hours. ie 9 30 am and 4 30 pm. A lot of people did day trading during the dot com boom and recently with FRE & FNM. We know the results.
Well I am guessing your knowledge of day trading is limited to what Wikipedia has to offer. I work 9.00 5.00 Software engineer (no pun intented) And I make a decent 50-100 on the side .
While you might have taken refuge in day trading for the stress immigration has caused, it can be a serious double whammy/nightmare if the calculations go wrong.
Well Day traders that I have seen sucessful have NEVER EVER suggested to go all in. Play small play consistent
All said, if you feel that there is enough money to be made and normal Joe Bloggs can cope up with the pressure, please share your thoughts in detail.
I wanted to address this post first cause I want the notion that this is for my benefit to be outted. I have been here long and supported IV in all ways possible.

I believe it was not just IV, but also "public demand" which triggered the monthly contributions thing.
Plus, there are practical benifits: People contribute more over the year if they are paying small amounts monthly (This is the very reason for existence of loans and credit :) )
Plus, it evens out the cash flow for IV and makes it more predictable.
Good job IV.. I have signed up for $ 20.. will up it later (I have serious expenses coming up in the short term :p ) Of course, my pledge to contribute 5 % of my tax returns still stands independent of all this.
Why does IV prefer Recurring contributions..? to one time contributions?

EB3 ROW is at Jun 2004. If there is to be any chance of spillover from EB3 ROW, EB3 ROW would be close to current, at least much farther than 2004.
EB3 ROW is at Jun 2004. But as per latest USCIS inventory, EB3 ROW pending 485's are around 48,000. Visa numbers available every year for EB3 is approximately 42k. If you deduct the backlogged EB3 countries (4x3000) visa numbers, the total comes down to 30k for EB3 ROW. So EB3 ROW should become current or atleast Jul 07 in another 1.5 years. If this is not going to happen, it means they are diverting the EB3 numbers to some other categories.
my 2 cents
Note : If EB3 ROW has 30k visas per year and pending EB3 ROW 485's are only 50k.. why it is still hanging in 2004. God only knows !!

The only and simple way to stop H1B abuse is to allow only max 10% non-immigrant (H1, L1, TN etc) employee in a company. Rest 90% have to be Green Card or Citizen. These desi consulting, Indian big companies must be hving at leaset 90 % employees on non-immigrant status.
Simple and universal rule that will solve all the H1B problems
I think you are absolutely correct,most abuses will stop then.Also if whistleblowers are given protection and EADs to work on more abuses will come to light.

This has become a ranting thread of EB3 folks. One simple question:
How many of you EB3 India folks who are complaining actually went to Washingtno DC last month for IV Advocacy event?
I hear it was not even 250 people. If you take out all EB2 people, so few EB3 people. This means EB3 people do not really want to do anything but after every visa bulletin come to the site and rant.
We in EB2 do not have much to worry. Our dates will move fast. But you EB3 had a chance last month and you blew it by not doing anything. So stop complaining.
Were you there at DC ? I didn't see you there.
How many EB3 guys were there ? To name a few Aman, Logiclife, pappu. Is that an impressive enough list ?

I have H1-b petition approval but i dont have h1-I-94 card.
Is it legal to work without h1-I-94 Card?
Do i need to travel out side of country ?
Read the approval letter. It states that you would need to travel outside the US and apply for H1 visa at US Consulate abroad. If your visa is granted then you can re-enter US with new I-94 card. Stay inside US without a valid I-94 is considered Out-Of-Status.
