Well it's obvious that it all boils down to what you bring to the table.
But that is with any company, it you're not providing revenue to the company you will get fired.
But at least IBM is not hiring H1B's without having a project in which to put people. I doubt IBM makes people like on their resume, I mean not minor lies, blantant lies like making a Fresh grad show 5 years of experience.
Several Indian consulting firms offered me this.
Hmm, being an Ex-IBM Employee and for the record, let me tell you something. As long as one can charge his or her time to a billable project, no one cares. Otherwise, all you get is a grace period of 2 paychecks to prove the worth of employment. I'm telling you this truth with a verifiable employment history of more than 8 years in USA.
My friend, all that matters is how much revenue one can generate. Just doesn't matter whether you are working for Big5 or small and tiny consulting companies.
Challenge me if i'm wrong

I do not think anyone is accusing IV of taking sides. I do not think they ever campaigned for EB2 and not EB3, The point is completely missed. But the movement happening is for EB2 only and not EB3, so it is only human for EB3 folks to see and feel depressed that nothing is happending for them.
Not few days ago, the administrators have themselves mentioned that there is no hope for EB3 unless a CIR is brought in congress and the only other thing for folks to do sooner is to Port, and which we all know only a few can do, not everyone...
In the light of all this...are we not missing an action plan????
I have contacted my lawmakers, sent letters to them...and its not even a long time since I joined this forum...the point is how do we make new people motivated?
I have failed to see where IV has been showing discrimination or bias towards Eb2 versus Eb3?
Not taking up a specific Eb-3 cause does not tantamount of neglecting Eb-3. Has IV done something in past 'proactively' for only a certain category of Eb? If not, then how can we accuse IV of ditching Eb3, at the same time?

I look at this bill in a different perspective:
1. This will give the Indian IT companies an opportunity to move up the value chain. Rather than body shop its employees to clients...they can have all the IT work done at its development locations. Also they can fill americans for half of its US workforce.
2. It will put an end to 100% H1b bodyshoppers who just make money without having any office and putting their employees onto client locations. These scrupulous bodyshops even dont pay on bench.
Thanks

DOS allocates GC numbers to USCIS adjustment cases only as the point of approval is reached. DOS can set/move/retrogress PD based on info provided by USCIS about number of cases at point of approval.
USCIS is not able to provide a good estimate of this number because
it can not calculate this number based on USCISs workload, and
it does not know the number of cases DOL will send to them. DOL again can not calculate the number of cases (it will send to USCIS) based on DOLs worload.
The following are from page 35 and beginning of page 36
The key to addressing this management issue at USCIS is to understand the dynamic interplay of priority dates and shifting workloads of three departments, and to know with greater precision and accuracy the size and details of USCIS� workloads.
The tri-agency meetings seek to expand inter-agency communication regarding expected new demands and surges, workflows, and priority dates. During the meetings, there is an examination of the case management systems and data collection processes used to assess workflows through each entity, particularly USCIS.
Although USCIS stated in its 2006 Annual Report Response (at p. 8) that it provides detailed data to DOS, the tri-agency group identified gaps in USCIS� data.

I agree as well
Projecting her as our champion is a BAD STRATEGY at this point. It's not like she is emotionally very upset about our situation. As a Congresswoman and the chair of Immig subcmt she is investigating irregularities and wrongdoings at the federal govt. She also probably thinks immigrants have been treated unfairly.
We shouldn't make her the target of anti-immigrationists; could hurt her, and hurt us.

So on 4/23 they sent it back to TSC, and today, May 3, I got an update saying that it is now transferred to a USCIS office.
Any ideas why?
my EAD app was delivered to tx on 3/29, and I got a text on 4/6 saying it was accepted and routed to VSC. A few days later, I got the notice in the mail.

90,000 VISAS
Our contacts in Washington have told us that there is a growing chance of a bill to recapture as many as 90,000 visas. The language of the draft bill that we've seen calls for a full recapture of the unused visas from 2000-04.
EVERYONE should contact their Congressman and let them know just how important this is
The above Email i got from Hammond LLC
What are you talking about? which bill? what 90,000? Care to explain???

It is just not enough to add a new member to IV. In my opinion, we also need the new member to be proud of associating himself/herself with IV.
Here is what every new member needs to be made aware of-
- What IV has achieved in the last year of existence?
(Manager's amendment, media interviews including the Reuters article plus the last minute attempts in the lame-duck session)
- IV is the **only** grass-roots organization in the US working towards issues of Skilled Legal Immigration. The affected people in retrogression runs close to a million.
The thing I am driving at is that new members join and do not persist with IV because they have not been made aware of what IV is and what it has achieved.
It is not about IV core members alone, the issues at hand are affecting YOU!!!!
well said.

IV had brought in hundreds of T - shirts to hand out. We were giving them out to everyone with a request to contribute on the web site. When we were out,
one of our volunteers, Kaushal, I think (don't know iv handle), he took out his own IV tshirt and gave it away!!
Another thing, I want to thank all the volunteer(s) who were asked to stay back to take care of the origin point and couldn't march in the rally.
Needhelp - you are actually v. helpful. Change your name to wanttohelp :)
you are a sweetheart!

Makes sense now, I assume your certificate is issued in a hospital. To enter the details in to the birth registration file, parents usually have to wait till they decide on the name and need to register the birth.
My son was named after we got a birth certificate from Mumbai Corporation with "Baby Boy" appearing as the name. After naming him and when he was ready for school, we went to the local Corporation office (Chembur, Mumbai) and had to fill some form for corrections. And they corrected their registers/our originals, with an officer's green ink signature nearby the correction and adding no of corrections - 1 in the certificate. That was acceptable to USCIS. I do not remember if it was done in the same day or I had to go after few days again. This was a routine procedure there.
